Teresa Giudice’s future on The Real Housewives of New Jersey for a while now.
The original star is on the outs with many of her castmates, and there have been countless questions about whether producers would remove her from the show for good.
Pulling Teresa would allow most of the cast, including Rachel Fuda, Melissa Gorga, and Margaret Josephs, to return.
However, reports have alleged that Bravo could push producers to completely reset the show after years of fractured cast dynamics.
Dolores Catania’s ex-husband, Frank Catania, was caught up in casting drama earlier this week when he indicated that Teresa was asked to walk away from the long-running reality hit.
He walked those comments back in the aftermath, and now, TMZ is setting the record straight.
The outlet cites sources who said “there is absolutely no truth to the claim” that Teresa’s tenure on the show is over.
Teresa has been a polarizing reality TV figure for years
Teresa has been a polarizing figure on the small screen for well over a decade now, so it wouldn’t be too much of a surprise if she was let go.
She’s one of the most recognizable Real Housewives ever, and because of her lengthy time on the show, her episodic fee will tower above that of her co-stars.
Bravo and producers have reportedly not yet decided what the best approach for the series is.
It would be easy to rush into things, but it seems that producers are taking a wait-and-see approach in the event that the cast dynamics miraculously shift after a lengthy hiatus.
It’s hard to imagine Teresa and Melissa ever being on-screen together again unless they patch up their relationship because their feud has dominated too much of the show.
Teresa did hint that a decision had been made about her future on RHONJ earlier this week with some inspirational statements on Instagram that indicated she would follow whatever path was set out for her.
The RHONY reboot means nothing is off the table
In the past, Teresa would have been a slam dunk for returning, but The Real Housewives of New York’s full-cast reboot has changed the stakes at Bravo.
A reboot would allow the show to come down in price because there’s a good chance it would feature a group of unknown women vying for reality TV fame.
The good news for Teresa’s fans is that her fate isn’t entirely as sealed as some people would like to believe.
It will be a nail-biting couple of months because there’s no telling what RHONJ Season 15 will look like or whether it will even secure a pickup.
The Real Housewives of New Jersey is on hiatus at Bravo. Stream Seasons 1-14 on Peacock.
I definitely think it’s time for Teresa to leave the show. Not only is she nasty and polarizing, but she’s not a very loyal friend. Contrary to her putting the blame on Margaret Josephs, it is Teresa herself who is responsible for most of the vitriol on the show. Her husband, Louis is a complete disaster. Together, the ruined the show, and it’s time for them both to go!
It’s no big deal for her I bet anything another network would definitely give Teresa her own reality show she has to many fans that love her and hate her husband I would watch
Anyone who is a fan of her and louie must be as low down as she is. She is a ignorant pos. She lies and when caught up throws tables or drinks and gets away with assault and battery on that show. She needs locked back up forever like the animal she is. And her daughters are turning out as rude as she is.
