Dina Cantin just weighed in on Caroline Manzo‘s recent comments about their years-long family feud.

After Caroline appeared on a podcast, where the 65-year-old Real Housewives of New Jersey alum spoke of their estrangement, amid which she supported Dina’s ex-husband, Tommy Manzo, 61, who was accused of hiring a mobster to assault her new husband, Dave Cantin, 46, and was tied to a violent invasion at Dina, 54, and Dave’s former home, Dina reacted to Caroline being accused of “victim [blaming].”

“The way she STILL victim blames her sister is utterly DISGUSTING! Yeah you’re right about 1 thing you ARE two different people!” a fan page wrote on X on September 5, prompting a telling “like” from Dina.

While appearing on the September 1 episode of Legally Goff, Caroline suggested that her and Dina’s tension had gotten “lost in translation” with fans before explaining that they were “two very different people.”

“She needs to preserve her sanity, and I need to preserve mine. And just because you have a sibling doesn’t mean that you’re bonded together for life,” Caroline reasoned. “Sometimes we’re just very different people.”

Caroline also said that not having her sister in her life was “not fun” and didn’t “make [her] happy.”

“But it’s the reality of things, so you just deal with it and move on,” she noted. “It’s life.”

As for whether she missed her relationship with Dina, Caroline said, “I miss certain things about her … [But] there’s a lot of hurt there, on both of our parts. A lot of hurt.

“There’s a lot of things I miss about her, and there’s a lot of things that, you know, we’ve hurt each other,” she added.

Following the sharing of the interview, fans lashed out at Caroline, labeling her “disgusting” and mentioning the character letter she wrote in support of Tommy, despite his treatment of Dina.

“I wish the interviewer had asked her about that letter that she wrote on behalf of her brother-in-law,” one person wrote.

“Here is a reality check for you [Caroline], your sister Dina is lucky to even be alive to live her life in peace now. She was beaten. And you supported her attacker. Address that!” another demanded.

“Girl the way you betrayed your sister is not ‘life.’ This Pious Clown thinks that she can gaslight the general public who sees her for the the cretin she truly is,” added a third.
