Wondering if Jennifer Aydin has been fired from The Real Housewives of New Jersey? Recent reports suggest major changes in the show’s cast, with RHONJ currently on hold and its future uncertain. As rumors circulate about cast departures and returns, Andy Cohen has spoken out to shut down speculation.
Let’s take a closer look at the reported shake-up, the reasons behind Aydin’s potential exit, and what this could mean for the show moving forward.
Has Jennifer Aydin been fired from The Real Housewives of New Jersey?
Jennifer Aydin has reportedly been fired from The Real Housewives of New Jersey, according to multiple sources.
OK! Magazine reported that an insider stated, “Jennifer Aydin is not coming back,” following recent controversies. Bravo has not officially confirmed the news, and Aydin has not publicly responded to the allegations.
Aydin joined RHONJ in Season 9 and frequently clashed with cast members, most notably Danielle Cabral in Season 14. After a physical altercation at Teresa Giudice’s party, Bravo suspended both women. They later reignited their feud at Rails Steak House. As tensions escalated, Bravo put the series on hold, leaving the entire cast’s future uncertain.
Aydin also faced backlash in January 2025 after an incident at Jersey Mike’s, where she filmed employees and complained about service. She allegedly berated an elderly worker and claimed to be a “celebrity” when confronted by a fellow customer. Castmate Margaret Josephs and The Real Housewives of New York alum Dorinda Medley publicly criticized her actions.
After the incident, event organizers removed Aydin from Wives on the Waves, a cruise ship event featuring RHONJ stars Teresa Giudice and Dolores Catania. They replaced her with The Real Housewives of Orange County star Shannon Beador. Reports suggest that Bravo had already planned to cut Aydin from RHONJ before the controversy erupted.
Bravo is considering a cast revamp similar to RHONY, but the show’s future remains uncertain. Andy Cohen shut down casting rumors on Andy Cohen Live, “Bravo has said nothing. No one has any information.” He urged fans to ignore unverified reports, adding, “If it says, ‘Bravo has announced,’ or ‘Andy said on his radio,’ then it is true” (via Collider). Bravo will not announce updates until 2026.
Fans can stream past seasons of RHONJ on Peacock.
