Margaret Josephs and Rachel Fuda defend Danielle Cabral against “aggressor” Jennifer Aydin following their RHONJ fight.
Margaret Josephs and Rachel Fuda are coming to their RHONJ co-star Danielle Cabral’s defense after her headline-making physical altercation with Jennifer Aydin.
The highly anticipated drama between Jennifer and Danielle aired during last week’s episode of The Real Housewives of New Jersey and has divided the cast and fans.
On the June 23 episode of RHONJ, Danielle Cabral and Jennifer Aydin got into an ugly physical altercation at Teresa Giudice’s Tulum-themed party. After engaging in a verbal spat, things turned physical when Jennifer pushed Danielle. The 38-year-old RHONJ star retaliated by throwing a glass at Jennifer.
“The truth is Jennifer really pushed her much harder than I ever thought and really was the aggressor in that situation,” Margaret told Page Six. “And Danielle had a knee-jerk reaction, which I think nobody would have,” she added. “When I saw it play back, I was like, ‘Wow.’ Danielle was in my space like that the year before; I didn’t push her like that. That did not happen between myself and Danielle.”
Rachel, who, like Margaret, did not attend the RHONJ cast event, admitted that she doesn’t blame Danielle for her reaction.
“Danielle did what anyone in this group would do. If someone shoved you with such force, you’re cracked in the head,” she said. “Based on Jennifer Aydin’s track record of aggression and lack of boundaries, what I heard and what I saw were really the same thing. That’s my expectation for Jen. She likes to be the antagonist. She likes to push people’s buttons. She knows how to push them and see how far she can literally push them.”
Real Housewives of New Jersey airs on Sundays at 8 pm.
