Teresa Giudice weighed in on Andy Cohen and Melissa Gorga‘s apologies, which aired on the finale episode of Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Roaring 20th on Sunday night, while appearing on Watch What Happens Live after the show.
After Andy, 58, and Melissa, 47, said they were sorry for the way Melissa’s Real Housewives of New Jersey casting went down behind Teresa’s back years ago, Teresa, 54, defended Lisa Barlow, 51, shaded the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, and revealed how she was more iconic than Vicki Gunvalson, 64, while also confirming whether she watched Next Gen NYC, sharing her rose and thorn of RHUGT, and more.
“I accept the apologies, so thank you so much. I was like, ‘Wow, it took 20 years,'” Teresa shared on the October 4 episode of WWHL.
“We spoke the next day. You go, ‘I think you apologized to me on camera,'” Andy recalled.
According to Teresa, she was so tipsy at the finale party that she wasn’t 100 percent sure that the apologies had actually taken place.
“I was like, ‘Really?’ … then I was like, ‘I don’t even know because I was drinking,'” she admitted.
Speaking of her friendship with Lisa, Teresa described her as “misunderstood” and applauded her for taking a stand after Gizelle Bryant, 56, got mad at her for being late.
“You know what I loved? That she said, ‘I’m not going to say sorry until I really mean it.’ I was just like, ‘I love that,’” Teresa noted.
After being asked how she was more iconic than Vicki, Teresa replied, “Everybody loves the flipping of the table and me pushing you.”
Regarding which RHOSLC cast member was the most jealous that Lisa was chosen for RHUGT, Teresa first named Heather Gay, 52, and Angie Katsanevas, 52.
“Heather and Angie cuz they were attacking her and then also maybe [Bronwyn Newport],” she said.
Following a pause after being asked what she missed of her marriage to Joe Giudice, 54, Teresa revealed how much of Next Gen NYC she watched, saying, “I watched the reunion and like one or two episodes.”
Moving on to her rose and thorn of RHUGT, she shared, “My rose is that I love that we built this sisterhood; like all of us, it was so beautiful. Like I feel like we’re always gonna have each other’s backs. My thorn was being away from [Luis Ruelas] and the kids.”
As for her most and least favorite seasons of RHONJ, Teresa named season one as her favorite.
“It was like, you know, not so much drama… and it was fun,” she explained. “My least favorite? There’s so many. I can’t pick one. Maybe the ones that I didn’t like the way I looked.”
She also reacted to her emotional scene in which Carole Radziwill, 63, read a passage about the Real Housewives.
“I felt like we had a sisterhood with all of us. We all support each other. Like women empowerment. Like, everybody, we had each other’s back,” she shared.
Later, on the WWHL: After Show, Teresa was asked about reuniting with Jacqueline Laurita, 56, on RHUGT.
“I was so happy to see Jacqueline. We talked before that, and we couldn’t wait to see each other,” she revealed.
She then confirmed that she was not nervous about her and Melissa coming to blows before joking that she hoped they would because “that would make good TV.”
“[But] I wasn’t nervous. Listen, they both can handle themselves,” she reasoned.
Also on the show, Teresa named her favorite cities from RHUGT.
“I loved the weather in OC … Beverly Hills … I’ve been to [Los Angeles] so many times but [Kyle Richards‘] party was beautiful … Atlanta was fun, and I love [Cynthia Bailey] … I loved [Marlo Hampton]’s dress … Miami, I loved Miami, and then New York, I’m used to New York,” she shared.
