Kathy Wakile: My Relationship with Teresa is a Work in Progress

"We get angry, but it's family," says Kathy.

By Lauren Metz


How's the fam, Kathy Wakile? "It's a work in progress. You have your good days and you have your bad days," the Real Housewives of New Jersey star tells Wetpaint of her rollercoaster relationship with cousin Teresa Giudice.

"We're constantly working towards the better days. We get angry, but it's family," she adds. "You get over it. You try to work past it and communicate with each other, so you don't keep making the same mistakes." Like using the word "unattended"? "You say what you say — what's on your mind. If someone takes it the wrong way, they take it the wrong way. But I know that I didn't try to say anything disrespectful," the kitchen whiz says of the Punta Cana punches she threw with Teresa.

And yet another member of Kathy and Teresa's familia is sharing her story on The Real Housewives of New Jersey — Kathy's sister Rosie Pierri. "Next season, you'll see, I'll be appearing — doing some things with [Kathy]. Telling a good story. [There's some] very heartfelt stuff coming up that means a lot to me and my family," Rosie spills to Wetpaint. "I'm a big part of my sister's life, and her kids, and her husband. We're very, very close. Her kids are like my kids."
