Teresa Giudice reveals why she “didn’t flinch” when she heard about Jackie Goldschneider’s betrayal during the RHONJ season 14 finale dinner.
While RHONJ fans have expected Teresa Giudice to flip a table when she learned that Jackie Goldschneider was communicating with her husband, Louie Ruelas‘ ex, during the season 14 finale, the OG stayed zen and told her co-stars she was “fine with it.”
Instead, Teresa Giudice blamed whistleblower Margaret Josephs for publishing negative stories about Louie on social media and in the press.
This all left RHONJ fans confused and scratching their heads.

Now, the RHONJ OG tells BravoTV.com that she long suspected that her RHONJ rivals were speaking with Louie’s exes.
“I already knew what they were gonna say, and I didn’t even flinch,” Teresa said. “I knew they were all hanging out with them. I knew they were all talking to them. Jackie had them at her house because Margaret’s not going to be that dumb and have them at her house. … Margaret let Jackie do it because, at the time, Jackie was Margaret’s puppet.”
The 52-year-old then noted that she understood Jackie’s motivation for meeting with Louie’s ex. Teresa explained that at the time, she and Jackie were at odds after she repeated a rumor that Jackie’s husband, Evan, was cheating.
“I’m totally fine with Jackie doing that because I hurt her. I hurt her by putting out what I said about Evan,” Teresa said. “See? I’m a big girl. If I punch you, I get it, you’re gonna punch me back.”
“I could’ve gotten ugly, [but] that’s just not the person I am,” she added. “And I said that to her: Whatever she did in the past, I don’t care. I get why she did what she did. I get it. I just don’t roll like her.”

As for Jackie, she was apologetic.
“I was scared to tell you because I didn’t want to f— this up,” she told Teresa. “But I’m glad that you know, because I was always nervous that you would find out.”
Jackie then justified her actions.
“It was February of 2021. That season opened with me and Teresa and the whole world was weighing in on whether or not my husband was cheating on me. Teresa and Jennifer were calling people trying to get information on my husband; trying to get pictures of women,” the author said. “And here comes this women saying, ‘Hey, I got something to put in your pocket,’ so if Teresa was to say to me, ‘Well your husband did this,’ I could say, ‘Well your husband did this.’ That’s the game we were playing.”
“Who can blame me for doing it?” Jackie added.
After the RHONJ finale dinner, Jackie revealed that she talked to Teresa and Louie on the phone.
“They were really unbothered by it,” she said. “[But] I felt bad. Regardless of what she had done to me in the past, I still felt bad.”

Thats EXACTLY who you are Treape. You're a nasty putana felon.
“See? I’m a big girl. If I punch you, I get it, you’re gonna punch me back.”
Oh a lot of people would LOVE to punch you just for being the uneducated fool you are.
This nitwit told Jackie, "where there's fire" NO dimwit it's "where's there's smoke"
You're welcome!!!

Actually her face told another story??
I read these comments from some of the viewers and it amazes me how some of you think it is all Marge's fault. Margret would never have done any of the things she has done if it wasn't for that APE causing all these problems. I thing Margret has every right to do the things that she has done. GO MARGRET
Don’t you remember she cried “ concern”??? She was oh so worried for Teresa .. lmao
As a cast mate in a HW show she had no right to go as deep as she did
And Ewwy had the right to hire a private investigator to do a deep dive on the whole cast? To even involve someone's adult child, by calling them at their jobsite?
If I had a friend who was involved with a creep and had those types of videos out, yeah I'd go that deep. Any caring friend would.
The reasons were put out as to why there was an investigation and I believe it was only lawsuit purposes pertaining to ongoing court case so if no one did anything wrong , no issue . And if my life / family were being stalked due to co workers giving personal info , you bet your ass I’d want to know who and why as would most of you .
Totally agree. It would freak me out. I can't believe they all did that to him. Margaret is a POS and I really hope she gets hers.
There's nothing out there that says Marge was stalking him. It's just assumed. All his videos and the bad things in his past were put out in the media because he was on a reality show, not because of Marge. I'm sure his exs had a hand in dumping his garbage all over mainstream media. But there was proof out there that Louie went to a private investigator about them, he admitted several times, before lying to cover his assets after social media blew up against him. Phone records have shown he called Marge's son and any mother knows that even if you're children are grown, if you're a decent Mother, you will defend them. I don't blame Marge for talking to the ex at all after Louie investigated the group and tried to harm her son. Nothing is more dangerous then a mother of any species. Proof has been shown that The Felon and her group have been going after Marge all season on every media she can because she has a hard-on for her. Its been proven that she'll lie until her teeth fall out, rather then admit she's wrong. The Felon & Ewwy have been shown throughout the season to be lying to cover themselves. Video doesn't lie. Neither do screen shots and there's been plenty of those out there too.
Marge and her minions were waiting for Teresa to go ballistic on Jackie lol. Glad the two of them have worked things out and are moving forward in a more positive way. It speaks volumes that Teresa and Louie are ALWAYS the topic of conversation, it's called obsession.
And that obsession led to dangerous stalking , violating orders , and why Marge was the only one subpoenaed. She was far more involved and invested and was the vessel for the psycho ex . No one else was as into the mix as her and for that long .
I think Teresa is lying when she says she knows all the women were talking to the exes. If that were true why did her and Louie only subpoena Marge? Why did they both go scorched earth on Marge only?
Because Claudia was fully invested with calls and lunches messages and the other women were not
No Jackie just invited them to her home lol
She was getting info out of anger not giving info for the stalker
Then kept her bad behavior a secret from her "close" friend, that is not a good friend. Jackie is desperate, she showed that all season crying about not being invited. Why didn't she have a get together, she can't be bothered, she just wants to be a party grifter. Worst NJ HW.
She's not only desperate, she's emotionally fragile even more so than she was before she sought help for her eating disorder. It's been obvious all season long, several episodes she even came to functions either high as a kite or drunk on top of being desperate. I foresee a complete mental breakdown followed by an inpatient stay if the show gets cancelled or some of the others get asked back and she doesn't.
She is indeed emotionally fragile and may start starving herself again since she’s all over the internet as a liar and sneak. I agree with you, she may have a nervous breakdown with social media all over her. She is using something because all she did was cry and beg all season. But somehow the felon forgave her and they are BBF’s again? I hope that’s not true.
I’m confused are you insinuating Marge was giving them info? What info could she give her?
Marge giving / ex couldn’t due to stay away order or whatever so she fed that loon . But cries about a 30 year old son . Hypocritical home wrecking whore
So what information did she give the ex? Their home address, license plate #s?
As I mentioned earlier this week, Jackie should have told Tre from the giddy up. I understand her reason for not divulging the information.
The best part of all this is Tre’s response. Marge & the haters were hoping that Tre would have gone complete nuclear on Jackie and the friendship would be no more.
It just goes to show Tre has emotionally evolved and matured.
… and how the others have not evolved …
Oh my…Tre emotionally evolved and matured? LOL
Now after Jackie made her confession, if Tre would have calmed down and stopped with Marge, maybe I’d see an infinitesimal amount of maturity. Nope, that did not happen. Please note, I would never use the word evolved regarding Tre…too comical.
What show are you watching???????
Real Housewives of NJ. ?

What a disappointing finale. Certainly made it out to be so much more during the season opener. And I find it hilarious how they have been talking all season about no reunion, and yet the commercial aired for the "sit-down discussion" immediately after the finale, with the date being the very next week. A bit suspect.
It was probably cheaper for Bravo to keep them in separate rooms instead of spending big on a large hall or theater.
There's a restraining order and the group can't film together
What restraining order?
Fake news!
Do you just make shit up as you go along? There's no restraining order between any of the cast members.
I can understand that on saving money (and on restraining orders), but my point is that they made this huge ass deal about "no reunion" and NJ isn't coming back for a while, blah, blah, blah…then the finale ends with…TUNE IN NEXT WEEKEND FOR THE SIT-DOWN DISCUSSION. I had to rewind because I was like…wait, WHAT?!?!
We all knew that there was going to be a sit down discussion that would air the week following the season finale. Bravo announced it almost two months ago now and filmed it back on July 15th. It's been discussed on numerous blogs and in the mainstream press. Nobody should have been surprised to see that preview Sunday night. It was kind of hard to miss the news about this. They're in two separate rooms. No Andy anywhere on the premises.
Yeah but Herman probably just missed it. I knew about it but if you don't read these sites regularly you might miss it.
Well, so there’s that…
I still think it was very wrong on all levels that Jackie lied when confronted by Margaret. It wasn’t necessary ( in my opinion) for her to do that. Just admit it , then explain why., done.
