Teresa Giudice Calls This Aspect of RHONJ "So High School": "Who Does That?"
The RHONJ cast member criticized her castmates for "cutting people out."
After living through The Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 14 finale dinner at Rails Steakhouse, Teresa Giudice has something to say about the group dynamic.
During an exclusive chat with BravoTV.com in July, which you can check out by watching the video at the top of this post, Teresa compared the Season 14 cast divide to that of a high school clique.
"It's a show about women getting along and not cutting people out and teams, like, who does that?" Teresa wondered. "That's so high school-ish."
As fans may recall, the RHONJ cast got together at the infamous steakhouse for the "Off the Rails" post-finale special, and Teresa sat with Jennifer Aydin, Dolores Catania, and Jackie Goldschneider, while cast members Margaret Josephs, Melissa Gorga, Jennifer Fessler, Rachel Fuda, and Danielle Cabral all sat together in another room.
Dolores went back and forth between the two rooms, but it was clear that, for the other ladies, a line was drawn in the sand.
After the finale aired, Melissa also referred to the "team" dynamic on Instagram.
"Hi Lovers," she wrote. "'My Team Melissa Peeps.' I do this show for many reasons but I need to take a minute before season 14 is over and tell you all how much you all mean to me for the last 14 years. You are all so amazing and always kept me going."
"It's not always easy staying in my own lane, keeping it 'classy,'" she continued. "Sometimes I want to lose my sh-t Trust me! And I know I have at times. But I go into this as something I appreciate. Something that I believe could be inspiring through all the good times and the bad. It's time to keep Jersey moving forward..."
Why Teresa Giudice feels "vindicated" after RHONJ Season 14
Teresa shared further insight into her thoughts on Season 14 in the final moments of the "Off the Rails" special, explaining that while she didn't repair her relationships with Margaret, Melissa, Danielle, or Rachel, she still felt a sense of closure.
"I had resolution. The truth came out,” said Teresa after a clip of her sister-in-law saying there was "zero resolution” on the finale played. “I feel vindicated.”
She reiterated, "The truth came out. I feel vindicated. None of us are perfect."
