Margaret Josephs doesn’t think Teresa Giudice should have allowed her daughter, Gia Giudice, 21, to be a part of the drama of The Real Housewives of New Jersey.
After Gia was seen feuding with her uncle, Joe Gorga, over comments he made about her father, Joe Giudice, and getting snippy with Margaret after she refused to wear Teresa’s leggings to Dolores Catania‘s charity baseball game, Margaret admitted that she thinks Gia’s involvement is “absolutely insane” and confirmed a blowup between her and Teresa at the recently taped reunion.
“I think that’s absolutely insane,” Margaret told Page Six at an event on April 8. “I was very upset that that happened, and I don’t think it belongs. I wish Teresa would have told her not to get involved, but I’m never going to argue with Gia.”
According to Margaret, she feels it’s “not appropriate” to bring children into the drama of the show.
“Teresa could defend herself and none of Teresa’s friends are ever going to argue with her daughter,” she explained.
Jill Zarin was also at the event and suspected, “[Gia’s] vying for a paycheck.”
In regard to Teresa’s comment that her butt would have looked better if she had worn her leggings, Margaret said her co-star should have used better judgment as she promoted her line.
“I think it’s very inappropriate to say something like that and especially when you’re promoting your athletic line, which is all inclusive,” she stated. “Not the swiftest move, but am I shocked? No. She hits below the belt.”
At the recently taped reunion, despite having had doctor’s orders to not yell after an emergency surgery, Margaret and Teresa continued their feud with a full-on blowout.
“No type of surgery could save her from yelling. Of course she’s yelling at me,” Margaret revealed. “There was nothing physical, but perhaps it’s because [Teresa’s] fresh off an appendectomy.”
During a separate interview, Margaret admitted that Teresa was “not very happy with [her]” for mentioning her fiancé Luis Ruelas‘ past on season 12 before shading her behavior and revealing where they stand with one another today.
“I always say she’s like an overgrown toddler,” Margaret told E! News, noting that Teresa spilled “an entire table of food onto [her]” in Nashville, which was “not very nice.”
“We’re not getting along very well, even after the reunion,” Margaret continued. “I talk to [Melissa Gorga], [Dolores Catania], I speak to everybody, truthfully. I speak to my entire cast, minus right now, I don’t speak to Teresa.”
The Real Housewives of New Jersey season 12 airs Tuesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
