Say what you want about Rachel Fuda, but she has at least one person rooting for her this season on Real Housewives of New Jersey. During a recent episode of Two Ts In A Pod, Tamra Judge went above and beyond with her praise of Rachel’s performance on RHONJ. She said that Rachel has the makings of a “Real Housewife icon.” That’s a pretty solid recommendation. After all, it takes one to know one.
Tamra is Team Rachel
Tamra’s stamp of approval came during a recap of RHONJ Season 14, Episode 5. In case you missed that one, Rachel eviscerated Teresa Giudice at Danielle Cabral’s “Boujie Brunch” and felt zero regrets about it. Teresa warned her “not to poke the bear,” but Rachel poked and prodded the bear without hesitation.
On the podcast, Teddi Mellencamp remarked that she felt proud of how Rachel confronted Teresa without shedding a tear. It’s not easy to confront Teresa, so both of the Ts gave Rachel a round of applause.
Tamra replied, “You just showed us what a Real Housewife icon would do.”
Whether or not you agree with the Two Ts, one thing we can all agree on is that RHONJ is a questionable state right now. Between the canceled reunion and the lack of resolution on screen, Tamra and Teddi noted that the show isn’t having its strongest season.
Teddi explained, “I feel like when I’m watching Jersey, it is women going out of their way to curate sh-t because they don’t have full relationships right now, and that bugs me.”
You’re not alone, Teddi. Everyone is feeling the same way, and we’re only five episodes into this season. Even though Rachel is bringing it, Season 14 is going to be a long one.
The Real Housewives of New Jersey continues with new episodes Sunday nights on Bravo at 8/7c.
