RHONJ’s Rachel Fuda Shades Teresa Giudice For Joining ‘House of Villains’ Cast: She’s ‘Hustlin’ for a Buck’

Rachel Fuda explodes at Teresa Giudice in RHONJ season 14 preview

Rachel Fuda shades RHONJ OG Teresa Giudice for joining the season 2 cast of E!’s House of Villains; she claims Tre is only doing the show because of her alleged money woes.

Real Housewives of New Jersey star Rachel Fuda has a problem with co-star Teresa Giudice being a hustler and making money!

While chatting with Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” podcast, the 32-year-old threw shade at Teresa joining the season 2 cast of E!’s House of Villains.

In March, it was officially announced that Teresa Giudice joined the cast of E!‘s House of Villains for its second season.

The RHONJ star will be joined by a slew of other reality TV stars, according to Entertainment Weekly.

The season two cast includes Survivor’s Richard Hatch, Wes Bergmann (The Challenge), Jessie Godderz (Big Brother), Kandy Muse (RuPaul’s Drag Race), Victoria Larson (The Bachelor and Bachelor in Paradise), Tiffany Pollard (Flavor of Love), Larissa Lima (90 Day Fiancé), Camilla Poindexter (Bad Girls Club), and Safaree (Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta).

Teresa joins season 2 cast of House of Villains

“Hustlin’ for a buck out here in these streets. You gotta do what you gotta do,” Rachel said, referencing the alleged money woes the RHONJ OG faces throughout season 14.

In the season 14 trailer, several members of the RHONJ cast accused Teresa’s husband, Louie Ruelas, of financially ruining her.

Margaret Josephs alleges “Louie pissed her money away.”

When it comes to Teresa’s villain title, Rachel said: “She took the title. I didn’t take the first punch as she says, right? So she called herself a villain.”

Rachel added that she had no choice but to go head-to-head with Teresa throughout season 14 after the OG repeated rumors about her husband, John Fuda, on camera.

John Fuda claims that he is Teresa Giudice’s only storyline on RHONJ.

“If you come after my family, I’m going to defend them. I’m doing what anybody else would do. I didn’t go into the season thinking that’s what I was going to do. I definitely thought me, my husband or both of would be attacked, for sure. That was definitely in the forefront of my mind,” Rachel explained. 

“But I just think that to have a supportive husband in all of this and for him to really be involved in a career choice that I made, I’m just really grateful to have him by my side through all of it.”

Despite the attacks, Rachel says it only brought her and John closer together.

“I mean, our marriage is as strong as it’s ever been,” she raved. “I think the show has really helped us and propelled us in a positive direction because it brings you kind of back home to what’s important and it kind of makes you united again in a weird way.”

A few weeks ago I asked why we hadn't seen any photos of the felon and the Lobster with his family. We used to see the felon and his sister, Veronica (the one that married them) posting photos together all the time on social media. It's been months now since we've seen anything. I just read on another site that the lobster had a falling out with his family, yet again, which I suspected.

He did mention that one or both sisters said they feel anxious around him back in early 2020 or earlier. The one in CA has a good excuse to not see him so if he did something nuts, she can easily avoid him. Maybe it is the other sister or something to do with the son that lives with his mother. ? Not surprising. That reminds me, what was MON talking about saying they were packing to move to CA or something. ? Is he or both of them getting a place there? Is that what he is using the $1million dollar mortgage he took out on his house in March for?

The House of Villains is the low rent version of Traitors (which is overrated as well). I couldn't get past the first few episodes, then went back to see Danielle Staub, but it turned out her return to reality TV was as disappointing as Tiffany Pollard's. When it's over it's over.

All these women should take advantage of any opportunity that comes their way. Their time in the sun will not last forever, so make hay while the sun shines.

Yes, Luis has her out hustling for some money plus he got rid of her for however many weeks until she was booted off the show. Rachel wasn't disrespectful. I bet when that show airs she will be the butt of jokes big time including many who never heard of her. She is too stupid to be humiliated but she should be to be so desperate as to take a job like that. Of course she always has and always will live WAY beyond her means. (Because of that she may end up in prison again sooner or later.)

I don’t know the rules of this show, but if it involves strategy,she will also be the first to get the boot.

Yes, I think she was on her way back when she was called out at the airport cutting in front of all the early boarders but not sure how long she lasted. I picture a lot of mouth hanging open scenes with her mumbling, "whaaa?"! I tried to watch twice to see evil Danielle and I think Abby from Dance Moms was on it but I couldn't because it was dumb. I might watch this one to see how the others treated her.

I am living for Rachel's truthful and hilarious shade! I'm surprised Loooieee hasn't approached Wonder Bread to ink a deal for the felon to promote their hot dog buns. ??

So what??? She sounds upset because they don't want her.
675309 May 7, 2024 - 12:20 pm
House of Villains? Well, maybe so but she doesn't qualify.
HermanL22 May 7, 2024 - 1:32 pm
Agree, but jealousy can come pretty easy! May be House of Villains, but it's still TV & money.

I think it was an interview and she was asked specific questions. I don't think she was jealous because it wasn't like she chose to talk about it specifically (although she agreed to an interview!) I'm sure it would depend on the payment for the non-winners as to whether or not it would be worth the time. I do wonder how much Teresa got paid and how long she lasted. So did they pay something up front and then so much per episode? It can't be too much if the winner gets $100,000 and there are several of them. Do they pay the air fare, room and board? I'm more interested in that stuff. I am sure Teresa was humiliated because she is dumb. I also wonder if she would have done it without Luis pushing her since he really has no paying regular job that we, the viewers know of. It isn't like she had any chance of winning because she is way too dumb but qualifies for the villain part.

Jealous much, Rachel, that Teresa's salary on "House of Villains" is about twice as much more than you made ON two seasons of RHONJ? Maybe your saying this to get a reaction out of Tre, IDK. ???? I do know it's a privilege for a reality celeb to get asked to participate on show outside of Bravo. Rachel is dumb if she doesn't know this. Rachel is insulting other HW, too, who work during off season. So, she should go practice contouring her nose.

Hey, if anyone "hustles" on the street it's you and your street thug husband, Rachel. As for Teresa, she's a Reality TV star with a red hot career. Translation: she's in demand and not scrounging for her contract to be renewed every year.
675309 May 7, 2024 - 9:55 am
She sure was scrounging/groveling last year. "Whaa, I have four dawters to put through college (even though Gia was already paid for by then), whaa." She'll be really scrounging and begging in another few months or so. "Whaa, Luis will dump me if I get fired", whaa!" Ha. I do hope there is enough for Gabriella to finish college although she needs to get a part time job, stay in Michigan and take summer classes! Get those credits before the money dries up! Who knows about the other two. Milania is supposed to start in Florida later.
Teeje651 May 7, 2024 - 8:25 am
Someone is really salty about Teresa being more in demand than she is . . . lol. At least she got the invite and the check that comes with it! And at least Teresa doesn’t have to go around BEGGING to get interviews! ? What do you got Bravolover1234? Embarrassment from the fucked up nose job and secondhand embarrassment from your thirsty ass wannabe housewife husband with those fat ass blubber lips.
