An upcoming episode of The Real Housewives of New Jersey reveals that all is not well between Teresa Giudice and Jacqueline Laurita.
The women, who were once close sufficiently killed any chance of becoming friends again by arguing about Guidice"s past legal woes.
It all started in Laurita"s kitchen, and Giudice said she was cutting "anyone that"s not loyal" in this next chapter of her family"s life.
This led to Laurita asking about past tabloid reports about Joe Giudice heading to jail.
“Somebody could’ve been putting that story out,” Giudice claimed about rumors (actually, facts) surrounding their legal battles, which ultimately resulted in both husband and wife being sentenced to prison.
“And they did.”
Laurita defended her decision to ask such a sensitive question.
“How was I gonna know better?” she asked as she cooked dinner.
Giudice got irritated, and claimed that she never badgered Laurita and husband, Chris about their legal woes over his clothing company (which is now bankrupt).
“Mine wasn’t a criminal case,” Laurita replied.
Oooh. Take it back. Take it back.
"I wouldn’t file a fraudulent bankruptcy like you did," she continued.
This displeased Giudice, who then decided that her new beginnings shouldn"t include Laurita.
“That’s a f–kng low blow," Giudice shot back, deciding that it was a good time to leave.
On August 3rd, Laurita wrote on her Bravo blog why she thought bringing up those past reports was a good idea.
“I thought maybe now she finally understood why, as a friend, I had asked her about the tabloids that were saying there was a possibility of her going to jail, and that she had finally put it behind her and would never bring it up again.
"Yeah right. If you have not seen the previews for next week yet…stay tuned. One step forward, two steps back.”
The Real Housewives of New Jersey airs Sundays at 8 p.m. on Bravo.
