During the Season 14 Real Housewives of New Jersey finale, Margaret Josephs opened her vault and exposed Jackie Goldschneider. While Margaret and Jackie had been friends for years, that changed when Jackie started hanging out with Teresa Giudice. Since the two were no longer besties, Margaret dropped some knowledge that she recently learned about Jackie. And it was all about her meetings with Luis Ruelas’ exes.
Teresa and her hubby Luis spent all season planning to expose Margaret for her involvement in a lawsuit between Luis and his ex. But unfortunately, they were targeting the wrong person. So, when Margaret unleashed this bombshell, a couple of people had a head-scratching reaction.
Jackie Goldschneider details what happened after the finale went off the rails
When Margaret first accused Jackie of meeting with Luis’ ex in 2021, Jackie vehemently denied it. She even accused Margaret of making up the story to deflect the heat from her. Finally, Jackie told Teresa that she did meet with Luis’ ex.
“I did not know how to react in that moment. At first, I denied it,” Jackie told The Daily Dish. “Then I was like, ‘[expletive] it, I’m gonna admit it. And if Teresa doesn’t want to be my friend anymore, I get it.’” Jackie trudging out of the restaurant alone will live on in Bravo history. As will Dolores Catania’s remark that Jackie needed “a diaper” as she hit the road.
But according to Jackie, she spoke with Teresa and Luis in a 30-minute phone call to air out what happened. “They were really unbothered by it. I felt bad,” Jackie explained. “Regardless of what [Teresa] had done to me in the past, I still felt bad.”
All the RHONJ cast was shocked by Teresa’s serene reaction to what Jackie did. For some reason, Teresa still blamed Margaret for orchestrating the entire plan. “I’m totally fine with Jackie doing that because I hurt her. I hurt her by putting out what I said about Evan [Goldschneider],” Teresa said. She was referencing the cheating rumor that she spread about Jackie’s husband Evan. “If I punch you, I get it, you’re gonna punch me back,” she added.
Am I the only one who thinks that a month from now, Teresa is going to roast Jackie?
The Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 14 wrap-up airs Sunday, August 11, at 8/7c on Bravo.
