RHONJ: Margaret Insinuates Teresa Should Be Fired; Calls Jackie an ‘Ingrate’

Margaret Josephs throws shade and digs at RHONJ co-stars Teresa Giudice and Jackie Goldschneider in new interview.

Margaret Josephs hits that Teresa Giudice should be fired from RHONJ and also calls former bestie Jackie Goldschneider an “ingrate.” Find out what else Marge has to say!

Longtime Real Housewives of New Jersey star Margaret Josephs recently chatted with Access Hollywood about season 14 and the ongoing rift between the cast.

During the interview, Margaret insinuated that RHONJ OG Teresa Giudice should be fired from the series. She went on to say that there are such “deep bonds” between her, Melissa Gorga, Danielle Cabral, Rachel Fuda, and Dolores Catania that they could continue the show with Teresa.

Jackie Goldshneider comments on RHONJ cast drama.

“I think if someone’s husband is just so wealthy and preaches it all the time. I don’t know why his wife is showing up in subway shops slinging baloney. So maybe it’s time for her to go, you know, I don’t know. That’s all I have to say,” Margaret said.

“I don't think [RHONJ] could continue the way it is. But I think, you know, there are deep bonds with many of us that can continue. I think there's just, you know, a few people who just dig their heels in, and do horrible things, which is sad, which is unfortunate. But I think certain people cross certain boundaries that, you know, I can't come back from, Melissa can't come back from, Rachel can't come back.”
The 57-year-old RHONJ star then went on to say that Teresa is not the nice person she used to be and isn’t someone she would want to know. 

Marge also alleges that Teresa was “obsessing” over her while filming season 14 of RHONJ. 

“You know, what I’m hearing is the girls would always tell me that she was obsessing over me, she’s gonna drop some bomb, she’s gonna I mean, she so obsessed with me, I could care less about her. Truthfully, I don’t care about her life, I don’t care about her and Louie. Like if people ask me a question I’ll respond on it.”

“But the truth is, to me, she’s a nonentity. She’s a she’s someone I would never wanna know. I really I do feel that way now. She is not the person I met, and maybe this was the real her role along.”

“She means nothing in my life. She really means nothing in my life. I wouldn’t even know a person like Teresa Giudice. The person that she is now, When I first met her, she had just come out of jail. She was humble, sweet, and kind. Um, the person she is today, I would never wanna know.”

As for Jackie Goldschneider, Margaret calls her former bestie an “ingrate” for not giving her advanced copy of her memoir, The Weight of Beautiful.

According to Marge, she is the one who championed Jackie to write her book and introduced her to all the right people in order for the book deal to happen, which is why she was baffled when Jackie never sent her a copy of the book ahead of its release.

Margaret explains:

Melissa [Gorga] had gotten her book, Jen Fessler, had read the book, Anthony, who helped her get the book deal who I introduced her to or she would not be working with, got to read the book.

I had given her my entire press list, um, for her to send the people the book. She needed the press list. I didn’t get an advanced copy at that point. I purchased it, the advanced copy on Amazon. I’m gonna support her. I’m gonna give give her book.

I thought it was weird and I felt like she was trying to stick it to me. So I was hurt, you know, I was just hurt. So we when I brought it up to her she was like, ‘we’re not that close, you’re entitled, how dare you think you should get the book, um, you know, Melissa’s the press,’ like, you know, Melissa was like the New York Times the way she I was like okay.

It was just very bizarre, her reaction. She could have just said I’m so sorry I’ll send you the book, but instead she was like you didn’t help me.

By the way, everybody’s a team. I am nothing without everybody who is stuck by me. I have the most amazing team. I could do nothing without them, and I’m very grateful. I’m very grateful for the, you know, my girls around me. She is an ingrate

And, I’m not saying I’m taking the credit for a book, it’s nothing like that. The girl is the most talented writer. I wanna put that out there. She’s so super talented. But no one does anything on their own without the people who champion you.”

Serious question though... Without Theresa to bash, roll their eyes at, gossip about and just generally complain about, what on earth would they talk about?? And does Marge really think that she's upto taking on that pressure? Seriously?!?!?
Evil Queen May 13, 2024 - 4:15 pm
For Tre being a nonentity, she sure did babble on for a while.
Ryan May 13, 2024 - 8:46 am
Jackie is so fake looking for her fulltime spot back. Obviously she has identity issues. she feels lost not being a fulltime housewife. Jackie can deny it all she wants she misses being a lead. I agree with Margaret.

Here's a little preview.. Some will be shown Sunday and some behind the scenes: --Jennifer is angry Danielle is staying with the Fudas when they go to the shore for some celebration of life. (She requested info about Danielle's father because Danielle was on the outs with him via and per MON. So that explains the recent article that she isn't speaking to him!) --The two new people are on, Kayla and someone else --Fessler admits everyone got together before the reunion to discuss Luis due to him intimidating everyone by announcing he had every one of them investigated by a PI and so on toward the end of the season. (They'd be fools not to, IMO.) --One of Teresa's big scenes to garner attention is Gabriella goes to college on Sunday. Teresa's other favorite scene was later when they talk about Luis' court case with Vanessa trying to get a restraining order. She was denied even though it is a Fact that Luis hired Bo to investigate her and he did so by having one of his employees pose as her patient. By the way Vanessa did get in contact with Teresa's brother and Marge because they seemed to care about her enough that she wanted to inform them personally of what Luis is capable of so they can look out for her. (That is what decent people do. It wasn't like Luis is anybody when he started, nor is he now except a known pathological liar and sociopath, IMO.) Yet Luis is now suing her for that and wants $5,000,000. Hopefully the result will be more of Luis' sociopathic behavior coming out.

Margaret is merely setting the stage for what we know is coming ... the proverbial battle for survival between two teams; herself, Melissa, Rachel, and Danielle VS. Teresa, Dullores, Jen A., and apparently turncoats Jackie and Fessler. But I think Margaret is on a suicide mission by going after Teresa, because pushing 60, her expiration date is about up, and if the show does have to choose between Teresa and Melissa, then the Gorgas are out.

Marge is a friend to no one and has been trying to get Teresa out thinking she will take her place. She thinks she is above the others and her only interest is herself. Look at the way she treats her husband so speaking ill of Tre or anyone else does not surprise me. She is the ingrate and a nonentity.

Lol. Old hag Magoo is shaking in her boots. This confirms what Jackie said in the podcast. Slinging bologna in a Subway shop? Did she forget that her good friend Danielle Cabral was right next to Teresa at that hoagie shop? Danielle BEGGED to get on that event with Teresa. They were supporting a local small business, the owners wanted them there, and it was a great event. Bashing a local small business just to take a shot at someone else is just lame! I’ve also heard that hoagies are no joke in Jersey and NY so she shouldn’t be talking shit. She shouldn’t be talking about other people’s money. Didn’t she say that she couldn’t afford to go to trial with Vineyard Vines when they were suing her and she had to sell her second lot?

Marge isn't taking credit??? Certain sounds like Marge is. Who's the ingrate??? Marge should be FIRED--she adds nothing to the show and is toxic. Marge doesn't look well.
SU May 10, 2024 - 4:57 pm
The minute this woman opens her mouth she becomes truly unlikeable. Marge likes to think she knows it all - in reality - she is just an intolerable a'hole.
cammierari May 10, 2024 - 4:00 pm
Omg Marge, what a bitter Betty! “Blah blah blah Teresa, blah blah blah Jackie…” I hope the T this season is Jennifer, Jackie and Tre shut that trout mouth up for good! Marge is no longer the fun, quirky pig-tailed blonde SHE used to be either, so her cracks about Teresa changing ring hollow (and bitter!) to me. Hopefully Jackie can enlighten us all about some of Marge’s dirty tricks, now that she sees Marge for who she is.

Why does the felon even bring up the dildo thing with John Fuda? On season 1 didn't the felon talk about putting a cock ring on Juicy Joe? Doesn't Juicy sell dildos for a living? Doesn't the felon promote sex toys which include dildos? Yes she promotes dildos and Juicy sells them, so she needs to keep her big hot dog lips shut. The hypocrisy is real with the felonious bitch!
675309 May 10, 2024 - 7:26 pm
Teresa's lawyer needs to be investigated! What a shyster! He is worried Jessica Chastain is related to Kate Chastain since Kate is at bravocon after Jessica note Luis is dangerous!? OMG. They both need to give that lawyer some attention and say what they think about it. Vanessa Reiser already has plenty of evidence against Luis' stalking her but this should be added to her defense. Luis has a lawyer perhaps stalking her,too.
Dr. Who? May 10, 2024 - 2:30 pm
https://x.com/MelissasOldNose/status/1788985385835720808 LOL! She wanted her lawyer to speak to Michael Rapaport! Her sense of self importance is astounding!
Dr. Who? May 10, 2024 - 2:27 pm
The felon is so paranoid, not to mention just plain stupid. She can't even correctly spell the most basic of words. https://x.com/MelissasOldNose/status/1788985385835720808
Dr. Who? May 10, 2024 - 2:24 pm
I love Ben and Ronnie! They call out the felon on her hypocrisy. https://x.com/MelissasOldNose/status/1788965421389058436

Why does the Lobster always make that face? He starting to resemble an ape, just like his felonious wife. Guess the saying that couples start to resemble each other with time, applies to this fugly couple. ??
675309 May 11, 2024 - 7:09 am
He does look apeish in his profile. Either that or Bart Simpson.
Ryan May 10, 2024 - 12:33 pm
Team Margaret.
Jacquie May 10, 2024 - 10:51 am
Marge is the worst. She over inflates her importance, and has been looking to take 1st place. Never going to happen. Honestly... what is her storyline? Husband she bullies? Whacked housekeeper? what?
Dr. Who? May 10, 2024 - 10:43 am
The hypocrisy is real!! The Stumps are acting like Margaret committed some cardinal sin when the lobster is the one that said the felon should leave the show because he's so damn rich. ??. What I mean by hypocrisy is didn't Teresa state on last year's reunion that Melissa was going to be gone? She thought she was pulling Bravo strings and that Melissa would be fired. As we all know that did not happen! ???
NikkiJax May 10, 2024 - 11:45 am
The whole show is just not that interesting anymore so Teresa acting like she's the big boss is laughable.
675309 May 10, 2024 - 2:04 pm
Oh, yes, he did say that his first season before leaving Marge's in a huff. Then he said to Teresa, "Marge just wants your "seat"". Teresa believed she could quit and acted like it that whole season. Next thing you know, he's unemployed and she's stuck.
sbud May 10, 2024 - 10:33 am
well Margaret just made sure she got her pink slip. History has proven that. Bye bye Margaret.,
675309 May 10, 2024 - 2:07 pm
I bet it will be either Teresa/Luis or they will cancel the show. It may even be Jennifer since what she (and Teresa, Luis and Teresa's lawyer, Jim Leonard) is involved in is way worse than what Monica on SLC did. She will be the fall guy without hesitation if there is pressure, especially on Jim Leonard.
675309 May 10, 2024 - 10:06 am
Nothing new. Teresa absolutely should have been gone already! Marge is still hurt by and angry at Jackie.
Zap It May 10, 2024 - 10:00 am
OMG...that woman is toxic. I can't believe Marg has been on this show for so long. She was actually sort of funny in the beginning but now she is just pure hate and negativity. ?
holy cannoli May 10, 2024 - 9:26 am
Ugh Margaret- such a freakin “ know it all “. I really don’t like her!
Evil Queen May 13, 2024 - 5:52 pm
