Jackie Goldschneider claimed Melissa Gorga is “very strategic” with her social media posts amid the cast divide, said The Real Housewives of New Jersey has turned into the “hunger games,” and called the situation “diabolical.” She also accused Rachel Fuda of being a “mouthpiece” for the castmates she’s “trying to impress.”
Earlier this week, Melissa uploaded a photo of herself with Jennifer Fessler, Dolores Catania, and Margaret Josephs – making a point to label them the ‘Dream Team.’
“Everyone is convinced that if they get the most people on their team and then they take the picture and label it like a team, that Bravo’s going to see it and they’re going to think, ‘Oh, well they have more people. Let’s just keep that team,'” said Jackie on the “Two T’s In A Pod” podcast, via @allabouttrh on Instagram. “That’s not the way it works.”
“It’s just making everybody so divided,” she added. “Not everything has to be so diabolical.”
Jackie claimed that Melissa labelling her friend group the ‘dream team’ was “very strategic,” and was the “same strategy as when she labeled [castmembers] going to dinner as a family dinner.”
“The problem is that this show has turned into the Hunger Games,” explained Jackie. “And I think it’s ruining the show.”
Jackie was eventually asked if she felt Margaret would make up with Teresa “if Melissa was gone.”
“Yes, I strongly believe it,” said Jackie, before addressing Rachel’s claim that Jackie is insecure. “I think, unfortunately, [Rachel]’s being a mouthpiece for people that she’s trying to impress.”
