While Real Housewives of New Jersey stars Melissa Gorga and Teresa Giudice have made amends, an insider exclusively dished to Reality Blurb that Teresa may be looking to have “something in her back pocket to expose Melissa” if she needs it.
What’s more, they claim Teresa suddenly refollowing Danielle Staub may have a part in this.
“Danielle reached out to the entire cast to touch base and obviously let them know she’s still around,” they shared. “After reaching out, Teresa took the bait and began following her again online and communicating with her.”
The source insisted that, with Teresa, “there’s always a motive, especially when it comes to Danielle.”
“Lest we forget, Danielle was initially brought back into the fold because Teresa thought that it would have an emotional effect on Jacqueline Laurita,” they continued. “Jacqueline ended up not coming back to the show, so it failed, and Teresa got stuck with her. At that point, she had to act like her friend because it was too late.”
“She then ended up manipulating her into pulling Margaret Josephs’ hair and almost breaking her neck,” they added. “When push came to shove, Danielle ended up outing that it was Teresa who told her to do that.”
The insider noted that Teresa “quickly threw” Danielle aside once she exposed her, something they said she’s done to “so many friends in the past.”
“Anyone who calls Teresa out on her bullsh*t is always tossed aside quickly in an effort for Teresa to remain looking clean,” they elaborated.
So what could be the motive this time to bring Danielle back into the fold?
“There’s chatter amongst the cast that she may want Danielle on speed dial due to Danielle having emails from years past from Melissa Gorga about Teresa,” the insider explained. “These include messages where Melissa allegedly was telling Danielle information about Teresa and begging to get on the show. Teresa wants something in her back pocket to expose Melissa should she step out of line and slip up in Teresa’s eyes.”
While they noted Teresa may be “trying to sell the narrative that she’s buddy-buddy with Melissa,” they insisted she’s “never gotten over the fact that Melissa came on what she calls her show.”
“Teresa is a jealous individual who, at her core, has always hated Melissa due to Melissa having a loving marriage with Joe, which is something Teresa clearly did not have with Joe Giudice,” they said. “Teresa has made it clear before that once Melissa came into the family, things changed. And what was the thing that changed? Teresa’s jealousy and the attention that her brother paid to her.”
The source also warned Melissa to “be careful” due to Teresa always being “one step away from making her next dirty move.”
But they noted Teresa also should “be careful” as “her antics last time almost got RHONJ paused for good.”
“It’s clear she needs the paycheck, so she should probably also toe the line, but knowing how she operates, she lacks self-control and cannot help herself,” they added. “As Bravo always says, we’ll have to wait and watch what happens, but, if the cast were going to place an Atlantic City bet, they would double down on Teresa and Melissa’s relationship imploding before the season is out.”
