Teresa Giudice spoke of the drama she faced with Vicki Gunvalson on The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Roaring 20th while attending the series premiere party last week.
As she also shared who she was closest to on the cast, slammed the behavior of Heather Gay, 52, and addressed The Real Housewives of New Jersey season 15, Teresa, 54, gushed over Gia Giudice‘s role on Next Gen NYC, commented on the death of Milania Giudice‘s best friend, Victoria Zardoya, and more.
“I have to say, I bonded the most with all of them. I really did. I mean, in the beginning, I was gonna flip a table on Vicki, but then, I really wasn’t, like, at first I wasn’t really that mad, but then the other girls got me going, so I can’t wait for you guys to see how that plays out,” Teresa told Entertainment Tonight.
As fans may have seen, Vicki, 64, was critical of Teresa after she opened up about the fraud case that resulted in both her and her now-ex-husband, Joe Giudice, 54, being thrown behind bars for failing to pay 10 years of taxes.
“I pay my taxes on time, all the time, no penalties, no interest, no nothing,” Vicki declared, later offering a “financial lesson” to Teresa.
Although Teresa and Vicki ultimately came together over Vicki’s sordid past with her own ex, Brooks Ayers, who admitted to lying about cancer on The Real Housewives of Orange County, Teresa later took issue with Heather, who she felt had been “mean” to Lisa Barlow, 51.
“I would say my buddy was Lisa Barlow … We clicked and we bonded. I love baby gorgeous,” Teresa noted after being asked which of her RHUGT castmates she connected with the most.
Teresa also explained why she felt the need to confront Heather on Lisa’s behalf.
“Because I witnessed it. And I just don’t like anybody being talked to in any bad [way]. It’s very inappropriate,” she described.
Moving on to RHONJ season 15, Teresa confirmed she had a good time filming.
“I guess when new people come on, they always feel like they have to go after the queen of New Jersey. So this time I feel like everybody [respected me], which, it was a good feeling,” she revealed. “We were all getting to know each other, which I can’t wait for all the fans to see it because I’m really curious to see what they’re gonna think of it. And I think they’re gonna love it.”
“I think we’re gonna have like, 10 million views,” Teresa added.
As for Gia’s second season with Next Gen NYC, Teresa said she was “grateful.”
“I love having my daughter in the same industry … She really is [crushing it],” she gushed.
As for the passing of Milania, Teresa noted, “Victoria was like a daughter to me. Milania and her grew up together since they were 4 years old, so I just want everybody to pray for the family, and even pray for Milania. It’s really devastating.”
