In a new interview with [Page Six](https://pagesix.com/2022/03/02/melissa-gorga-jennifer-aydin-is-not-authentic-on-rhonj/), Melissa says Jennifer is not *“authentic”* on the *Real Housewives of New Jersey*. *“I just don’t speak her language. I’ve always struggled with Jennifer because I’m fine arguing with someone, but … I never feel like she’s authentic,”* Melissa explains. *“I feel like she walks in the room, and she’s like, ‘Hmm, what should I do today?’”* The *On Display* podcast host says she can go toe-to-toe *“all day”* with her other RHONJ costars, including Dolores Catania, Teresa Giudice, Jackie Goldschneider, and Margaret Josephs but has no time for Jennifer. *“I tend to dismiss her a lot in my head because I never believe what she’s saying is really how she feels. She’s kind of, like, putting it on a lot,”* she says. *“I just don’t read her as an authentic [person].”* As for her recent physical altercation with Jennifer, Melissa notes that she couldn’t take her longtime nemesis seriously. *“It’s always rough for me with her,”* Melissa quips. *“I’m just like, ‘Sit down.’”* Despite their drama, Melissa empathizes with Jennifer as her husband Bill Aydin’s decade-old affair came to light while filming. *“There is a lot that goes on with her this season. … We get to see a lot of the inside of what’s going on [within the Aydin family] and maybe why she acts the way she does and why she acts up,”* Melissa says. *“We definitely talk it out a little bit this season.”* *“I’ve never seen [Jennifer] cry so much as she did this season,”* she adds.* “Where I wouldn’t normally even bother with her, I completely did. You will see our relationship evolve this season, finally.”* *The Real Housewives of New Jersey* airs on Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET/PT. ## Thoughts on this all??
