Popular Post Stats Queen May 3, 2023 Popular Post Share May 3, 2023 I think it is disgusting that Fuda is airing this whole adopting her stepson while the biological mother is still alive. No opposed to what she is doing, but man to air it on TV, if you care about the kid you wouldn’t do that. 27 4 3 Link to comment

I notice that Jen’s other 4 kids are avoiding the camera. Yes, they are avoiding the cameras. I think Olivia is the only one that is not, and Jen probably asked her, to have somebody from her family film with her. I don't think her parents, or siblings film with her anymore. The parents were probably embarrassed because their marital issues were exposed for a storyline. The season is almost over, and we didn't see any of them yet. That's why we see her filming almost exclusively with Bill, and it's all about the therapist storyline. I didn't mind seeing her family (which was the original HWs setting- we followed their everyday lives), but I guess we can't have this anymore. 4 2 Link to comment
Popular Post Lady of nod May 3, 2023 Popular Post Share May 3, 2023 Theresa is such an insufferable bitch. She’s still nasty as ever, just learned to be more passive aggressive. Regardless of the anti Melissa sentiments widely held, there’s no reason to make her feel so unwanted. I wouldn’t have even shown up at the shower if I was treated like that. Theresa has a new fambly now with neanderthal Louie and his crew. They deserve each other. Ugh. And ugh to Frank for showing up in his wifebeater to a nice restaurant, and the way he expects Delores to be a family with him when he dumped her years ago. I give her props for putting up with him all these years for the kids, but she has her own life to live. 23 4 Link to comment
njbchlover May 3, 2023 Share May 3, 2023 This is just a small rant, but I cannot stand when someone refers to in-laws as "sister-in-laws" or "brother-in-laws". It should be sisters-in-law or brothers-in-law.

ZettaK May 3, 2023 Share May 3, 2023 (edited) Teresa said "there is always a light at the end of the rainbow".... Why does Melissa think that Teresa replaced her with Louie's sisters? They are part of the family now, shouldn't they be present? One is an attorney (Jennifer), the other an optometrist (Veronica). Ashley Darby from the Potomac HWs in the bridal shower was a Bravo invitee (among the Bravolebrities who were invited to Teresa’s wedding, and not by Teresa). Audrianna at 12 is already the tallest of all the Guidice daughters. The Ireland trip was wasted. No sightseeing, and only a small touristy part of Dublin was shown. Jen Aydin's mother's was shown for a second in the background of the Bridal Shower. Rachel Fuda was asked by Andy Cohen if she waited for the show to film to adopt Jaden. Her husband was on WWHL.

njbchlover May 3, 2023 Share May 3, 2023 (edited) I wish I knew when they filmed Teresa's shower at Brando's. I would have been planted outside that restaurant to get some pictures! I've eaten there several times - the food is delicious!! It's definitely a special occasion place because it's pretty pricey, but it's one of my local favorites! Plus - no way was Teresa surprised. She was wearing a very "bridal shower" type dress, and when she got out of the car, she way too excited for just a brunch with her daughters. Besides the fact that Brando's in Asbury Park is a good hour to 90 minutes from her house in Montville, depending on traffic (summer weekend traffic on the Garden State Parkway is horrible!!) - why would they have a brunch so far away from where they live? Lastly, if anyone knows Asbury Park, street parking is horrendous there, especially around Brando's. Pretty convenient to have a spot waiting for her, right in front of the restaurant. Did anyone notice if Dina Manzo was there? I thought I may have spotted her in the group shots, but I'm not sure. Edited May 3, 2023 by njbchlover 8 Link to comment

I also feel that the subject matter that they have her filming is totally inappropriate for an 11 year old - natural or not. She should not be discussing any of this and her mother should not be discussing this with her, either. 12 1 Link to comment

dancingdreamer May 3, 2023 Share May 3, 2023 Listening to Jen and Bill talking, it's like two completely different subjects. I think Bill wants the children to have more structure. He does have 5 kids to put through college. Jen isn't the suffering mother, maybe this is their storyline. The bridesmaids looked pretty, but that phone call was a total set up. I like Rachel, she's not too OTT, Danielle acts one way, says another, I thought we'd get away with not mentioning her brother ( it's in the previews. ) That phone call in the car , that was nasty, just nasty, typical Louis. I think Frank feels numb without Delores, but there again, Paulie says 'set boundaries, ' btw, he doesn't like being on TV, but Delores follows his orders. I'm wondering if she's leaving the show. Sorry, I've always had a soft spot for Frank. The voice at the restaurant, are we sure it wasn't Mr take charge himself, Louis that is.lol 3 1 Link to comment

Speaking of Melissa, she couldn't have been more of a pill at Teresa's party if she tried. She is not a victim of anything but her own unhappiness. If Frank wanted his family of four with Dolores, he shouldn't have cheated on her in the first place. He just doesn't want to lose his "house husband" spot. He's allowed to have a girlfriend (or girlfriends), but Dolores isn't allowed to be happy? He needs to get a life. His own life. Edited May 3, 2023 by funnygirl 14 1 2 1 Link to comment
Chatty Cake May 3, 2023 Share May 3, 2023 Fuda is a self serving asshole. Using the adoption for her storyline is gross. Her and her non chin having husband were an unnecessary addition to the cast. Danielle, the show could be called Mean Girls at 50. She’s seen the show and knows reality tv. Stop crying over it. Oh Frank. I miss when I would just enjoy his goofiness. Now he’s coming off pathetic. Hahhahahaha, I knew Louis and Teresa were full of shit. Pretending to want peace was good for a few scenes but they really don’t care at this point. I don’t blame them either. It’s like Melissa knows the clock is ticking for her time on the show. That’s why she looks sad. It has nothing to do with her non relationship with Teresa. 5 1 2 2 Link to comment
Gigi43 May 3, 2023 Share May 3, 2023 (edited) Melissa is saying she'll go to the wedding to show the kids normal, "then get off the crazy ride" what does that mean? Cut them out of their lives? Joe seemed surprised she was going to the shower (on the aftershow Jen said Antonia was invited but didn't come.) Joe didn't go to the housewarming and neither did the kids, Melissa gave the flimsy excuse of one falling asleep. Now, I think a lot of the wedding stuff makes no sense because it sounds like the dinner mentioned in the phone call was 6 days away. Wouldn't the invite and headcount be done and given to the restaurant by then? What day during this lead up does the party with the fight happen? Imo, I think Teresa knew for a while the Gorga's weren't going, they even talked about it a few times. Also the guests Louie mentioned sounded like a cast dinner, probably to be filmed by Bravo for the wedding show. Or maybe they didn't want to invite the Gorga's only for Joe to not show. Joe's been avoiding Teresa yet he'll go to the wedding and dinners leading up to it like it's all good? I also wouldn't be surprised if Bill told Louie/Tre/Jen that Joe was going off on his nieces at the guys night. That said, Louie is shady. That Bridal Shower absolutely wasn't a surprise either. I liked seeing the Turkish traditions because Bridal showers are generally boring in my experiences. Teresa seemed to like it but on the aftershow some of the women (Marge, Rachel, Jackie) thought it was strange and called Jen selfish. Dolores wasn't called selfish for having a party for Teresa in Paulie's home country. Marge especially needs to be negative any time Jen's traditions come up and it bothers me. Rachel suddenly needing to adopt Jaiden without knowing anything about process definitely screams storyline. That boy doesn't need all of this on TV. Joe Giudice wishing Teresa well and Teresa praying he can come back was nice. I do think Joe has humbled himself and seems to be different. It took a hell of a wake up call. I do really want to know what he really thinks of Louie. People on Twitter said Teresa has taught Milania to hate her uncle but really she seems to have been done with him once he accused her father of being the reason Nonno and Nonna died on the show and then was talking bad about him to the girls in texts. Teresa didn't do that. Joe Gorga did just like Joe has done a lot in front of his nieces to make them fed up. I've yet to hear Teresa texts her niece and nephews bad things about their parents and hasn't called Antonia about any incidents the way Joe admitted to calling Gia to fix the bridesmaid issue nor has Teresa made a podcast saying those kids should thank her for everything they have due to Joe and Melissa riding her coattails. Thats why the Giudice girls are involved and the Gorga kids aren't. They'll all be back next season and rinse and repeat the cycle of hating each other until a fake reconciliation that won't last. It's so played out and fake. Edited May 3, 2023 by Gigi43 7 1 1 Link to comment
