Teresa Giudice is hell-bent on taking down her nemesis Margaret Josephs this season and now she has help thanks to her daughter Gia Giudice.
The mother-daughter duo is getting dragged on social media for what some people are calling “disgusting” behavior.
The backlash stems from a scene that played out in Episode 11 of The Real Housewives of New Jersey, titled Sleepover With One Eye Open.
Teresa expressed her anxiety about her husband Luis Ruelas’s ongoing court battle with his ex and blamed Margaret for her role in that.
She claimed her castmate reached out to Luis’s ex to dig up dirt on him causing things to take a turn for the worse.
Gia is also fully convinced that Margaret is to blame for her stepdad’s legal issues, and the 23-year-old was very vocal about her ill feelings towards her.
RHONJ fans drag Gia and Teresa Giudice for their ‘disgusting’ behavior towards Margaret Josephs
In the scene, Teresa expressed that her hatred for Margaret stems from her involvement in Luis’s legal battle.
“I feel like once this is settled, it’s kinda just gonna be like an ‘I told you so’ moment for Margaret’s sake,” said Gia to her mom. “You’re gonna talk to all the girls and I think everyone’s gonna see the picture.”
After a clip of Gia and Teresa’s scene was posted on Instagram, people instantly took to the comments to bash the “toxic” twosome.
“Why is Gia hanging around with 50 year old women. And Teresa should know better than to involve her children in her messed up life. So toxic!” wrote a commenter.
“It’s horrible she’s getting Gia involved in her poisonous actions and making another generation just like her ….. very sad 🔥🔥🔥🔥,” said someone else.
An RHONJ viewer exclaimed, “I hate how she wants her daughters in toxic drama 🙄.”
Another reasoned, “This is just disgusting. Toxic Tre at it again.. and Gia all up in it now… So said.. pathetic.”
“Teresa making her daughter toxic AF,” someone else exclaimed.
Teresa brings in her lawyer amid her takedown of Margaret
Teresa is taking things a step further in her bid for a Margaret Joseph takedown and we’ll see that in the coming episode.
She hasn’t had much luck in trying to convince the other RHONJ cast that they should have severed all ties with Margaret, so now she’s bringing in reinforcement.
This time it’s in the form of her lawyer James Leanord who she asked to sit with the other women and explain Margaret’s involvement in Luis’s lawsuit.
James was featured on a video chat in the scene, telling Teresa, “I’ll be happy to talk about that.”
James’ sit-down with the women will be featured in Episode 12, so let’s wait and see how that plays out.
The Real Housewives of New Jersey airs on Sundays at 8/7c on Bravo.
Both Teresa and Gia are vile people.
Does Teresa ever get tired of blaming the world for her actions? She has never taken responsibility for her despicable behavior. I caught some of the RHONJ marathon today. I had forgotten what a hateful person she was.
She is such a useless no-talent Awful Parent who needs to be back in prison!
Margaret and Melissa are the cause of this whole mess. They need to get rid of them. Margaret 80 old grama looking , Melissa acts like she’s 10 always tantrum with her. Those 2 are worthless to the show.
Teresa is lucky enough to have four lovely daughters. She should stop dragging them into her personal problems. They are her children, not her friends!
As a mother and daughter, I would never allow anyone to disrespect my mother in real life. I understand that this is a television show and many people may not agree with my perspective, but I believe that Gia is simply speaking to her mother about it. I for one would in front of Margaret face.
I am unsure why everyone is afraid of Margaret, but it certainly makes for entertaining television. However, it is important to remember that this is just a television show and not real life.
Everyone is overlooking what Margaret does best, and that’s dig up dirt on every housewife, and putting it all out on TV even if it hurts family & children. She always plays the victim. When she is the evil messenger of every skeleton that is brought out on everyone. She’s nosey and too old to be acting like a damn jr.high school girl. I wouldn’t trust her with any of my secrets she seems like a woman that likes to gossip about Everyone she even calls “friends” don’t be fooled ladies I’ve seen this kind of behavior before with “friends” of mine. She just can’t stay out of people’s business. She doesn’t know how to be a true friend. She comes off as fake, and untrustworthy. She is quick to throw you under the bus when you expose her backstabbing tactics. Sometimes you just need to stay away from people like that. She’s another Kim. She’s destroys everything in her path, her life with different men, children, friendships, and even her own MOTHER! She’s a kind of woman that you can’t trust around your man. Look at what she did to her ex-husnand! Cheated on him with her NOW husband. That alone says alot about her self-respect. Which is NONE!
