Why did Teresa Giudice and Jackie Goldschneider feud in ‘RHONJ’ Season 11?

As soon as RHONJ Season 11 kicked off, Giudice got messy and this time it involved Goldschneider. The latter invited her co-stars to a birthday celebration for her husband Evan. At the party, Giudice went around asking the other women if they had heard rumors that Evan was having an affair. They were all taken aback by the allegations and didn’t believe it.

The situation escalated when Goldschneider confronted Giudice about what she was going around the group saying. In an effort to help Giudice understand how difficult it was to hear rumors about a loved one, Goldschneider made an analogy. The mother of two sets of twins told Giudice that she wouldn’t like it if she said that her daughter Gia did drugs.

Giudice kicked off and things went downhill from there. When Goldschneider talked to Showbiz Cheat Sheet about all the drama that went down, she explained that Giudice might have missed the part where she said it was an analogy and not real.

“She pushed me to my limit, I reached a boiling point, and I needed to make her understand how hurtful words could be,” she told us. “I did present it as an analogy. And I think the fact that she missed that, was the reason why she exploded. But I think most people can tell that that was an analogy.”

Jackie Goldschneider weary about Teresa Giudice at the ‘RHONJ’ Season 11 reunion

The RHONJ Season 11 reunion has already filmed and Giudice is reportedly in the middle of all the explosive controversy. Goldschneider recently revealed that she was dreading facing Giudice as she didn’t know what to expect as the ladies relive all the drama.

“I was very worried going into reunion about how vicious it could be because, let’s be honest, you’re on TV,” she told Access Hollywood’s Housewives Nightcap. “You’re not breaking the fourth wall, but you’re on TV, so if somebody says something, it’s immediately out there. Evan was very worried too, he said, ‘What is she gonna say? What is she gonna say?’ I said, ‘I don’t know what she’s gonna say!’”

“You can do anything these days,” Goldschneider added. “You can go on the dark web and make a video. Like, I [didn’t] know what she was going to do. So, I think both of us were really nervous because I can argue back, and I can get petty, and I can get a little bit shady, but I really don’t want to be vicious. I don’t want to go there, so I was worried it was gonna go there.”

The Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 11 airs Wednesday nights at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo.
