Does Teresa Regret Joining RHONJ?

Airing out her family's dirty laundry? That was never part of the plan for Teresa Giudice.

"Having issues with my family blow up even bigger because we're on TV together is kind of a nightmare. It's not fun for me. I can't pretend it is," the Real Housewives of New Jersey star told fans in her BravoTV.com blog this week. "I'm not gonna sit there and be all smiley and happy that I'm on a talk show when I feel like crying. I'd rather never have been on TV and have a happy family than go through any of this. And it's hard to sit next to people who obviously don't feel the same way and are loving every minute of it..."

Teresa was referencing her recent appearance on Live with Regis & Kelly, where she appeared with sister-in-law Melissa Gorga as well as Caroline Manzo. But it doesn't seem T's regret is pulling on baby brother Joe Gorga's heartstrings. "Just read the blogs, when will she stop?" he tweeted.

If there is a silver lining in this family mess, Melissa offered a glimmer of hope that reconciliation is – believe it or not -- possible when she tweeted earlier this week, "Took Antonia, Gabriella, & Miliania to get manis & pedis this morning! They were sooo cute! #cousinlove xoxo"
