Season 14 of The Real Housewives of New Jersey marked a bit of a turning point for the series. It’s no secret that the ratings were down. Andy Cohen has also publicly stated that there needs to be some sort of reboot for the troubled show. Now, Rachel Fuda has given her two cents on who she believes should return. Plus, she weighs in on the drama between Danielle Cabral and Jennifer Aydin.
As everyone knows, the latest season of RHONJ was pretty dark. The finale even saw Luis Ruelas wishing for the suffering of Margaret Josephs and her son, who is not a part of the show. Of course, there were also instances of violence.
Now, Rachel is talking to US Weekly and giving her thoughts on who of the current cast should remain on the show. She says, “I mean, I would love to have my friends. I’ve worked my whole adulthood to create a positive, happy environment for me and my family, and to put myself in a position where I have the most negative, toxic people around me completely negate everything that I’ve done in my adult life.”
So, what friends is she talking about for season 15? As almost any fan could guess, she’d like to see Melissa Gorga, Margaret, and Danielle return. Of course, there would also be new faces.
She goes on, “And then potentially Jen Fessler based on what that role capacity looks like. I think that based on that cast, you can bring in new people. Our personalities are alike, but we’re also very different, and that’s what I think makes our relationships so unique.”
Rachen then explains how she and Danielle are different and how it could enhance the cast.
“She walked in with gigantic crystals, and I walked in with flowers,” said Rachel. “I think that bringing back a room of people that can have conflict and also have resolution only benefits the show and its totality.”
Rachel goes on to discuss Teresa Giudice and how she feels that Bravo has to find a way around having the OG on the show. She says, “They have to figure something else out, and that’s just my opinion. I don’t know how anyone that runs the show feels, but there’s a common denominator here that also seeps into other people in the cast, and I truly feel like that is her, unfortunately.”
She then says she lacks “space” for people like Teresa and adds, “There’s a lot of things that have happened behind the scenes … it’s much deeper than even what you guys have seen on the show.”
Rachel also spoke to the Virtual Reali-Tea podcast about the drama with Jennifer and Danielle. She says, “First of all, Danielle always does what’s authentic to her, and I respect that so much because she’s unapologetic about it… and I think that Jenn Aydin is like a professional button pusher. Like she knows exactly what’s going to piss that person off.”
She goes on, “We all heard through the grapevine, and this was said but not shown, that Bill had actually had the surgery to remove the fat tissue in the breast area. So, allegedly, he had that procedure done. So, a lot of what they do is they project their things onto other people, but it’s okay because Bill had his fixed.”
She explains, “By the way. This is the same person who made comments about my nose like this is what she does. Like she comments on people’s appearance and that to me is equally as low as commenting about someone’s financial situation.”
Of course, there’s no word on how long we’ll have to wait for casting news for RHONJ.
