Why Jacqueline Laurita ended her friendship with Teresa Giudice

Teresa Giudice has claimed for months to be doing whatever it takes to get her family back together. However, as viewers of the show are beginning to realize, she doesn’t appear to really be doing it. Even her former best friend, Jacqueline Laurita has decided to cut ties with her completely. What’s in it for us? Plenty of gossip about what Jacqueline really thinks about Teresa Giudice, and why she decided to end their friendship.

Although Jacqueline thought of herself as one of Teresa’s best friends, the more she saw in the press, the more she began to realize she hardly knew her at all. “I was very confused, because I was reading one thing in the tabloids about her life and then I was seeing something completely different in the way she was living in her real life,” she explains in her Bravo TV blog. As her co-stars pointed out on Real Housewives of New Jersey, Teresa was claiming bankruptcy but at the same time, she was renovating her house. Things were not adding up.

There has been plenty of tabloid drama on the show surrounding Teresa and while she claims to be all about family, she makes negative statements about them whenever given the chance. Jacqueline explains, “Teresa would do little things to try to sabotage her family and friends like putting things about them in articles, sabotaging potential business opportunities, etc. all while claiming that she wanted to be one big happy family again.”

All the while, Jacqueline tried to be a good friend to Teresa, and be there for her if she needed her — that’s why she wanted to talk to her about her money issues. She also had tried to encourage Teresa to go to therapy with her brother in hopes that they could work out their differences. “I truly cared and wanted them to get past their issues, but Teresa would never let up or let go of anything and then she would put the blame entirely on everyone else without taking any accountability for her own actions.” In the end, Jacqueline explains, “I couldn’t get through to her, and it was getting harder and harder to justify her behavior and explain mine.”

As fans saw on Sunday night’s Real Housewives of New Jersey, Jacqueline explained to Teresa that she needed to distance herself from her and her family. Their issues were weighing on Jacqueline and their friendship had been on the rocks for weeks. How can she a good friend to Teresa if she wasn’t being honest with her?

Jacqueline also explains why Teresa’s relationship with Danielle Staub had offended her so much. Teresa had called her out for being civil with her but then did the same thing. As Jacqueline says, she wasn’t playing by her own rules. The same thing applies to her family issues. Teresa claims that they are stuck in the past and won’t move forward and yet when Joe admits he hasn’t been perfect and wants to go to therapy to get through it, she refuses.

On top of not being honest with Jacqueline, Teresa even tried to come in between her relationships with the other cast members. She says that Teresa would ask her things such as, “Whose side are you on, my side or Melissa and Kathy’s side?” and, “If I am your friend, why won’t you call them out?” and, ” If you were MY friend you would say (this) or (that)!”

Do you think Teresa is digging herself into too deep a hole with her friends and family? CLICK here to read her side of the story.

oh dear

the thing about teresa is, shes a child in a womans body. you never see her having a conversation on a grown up level, its always on the childish emotional “but i didnt do anything wrong, but she said this and she said that, i never said…”

she has no sense of responsibility. she has no comprehension for other peoples arguments and no empathy whatsoever. its simply impossible for her to be in the wrong, ever. because shes so bloody perfect. LOL its kinda sad actually. i dont want to call her dumb and incapable of self-reflection though, i hope that shes just too proud to admit her wrongs. because where there is no reflection there is no room for improvement and that would just suck for her and her little girls.

I found Jacqueline’s insistence on getting to the bottom of Teresa’s finances a little strange, no? At the end of the day the show is obviously about drama and rehashing because you have to bring to light information that the viewers didn’t see because either the cameras didn’t catch it, or it happened while they weren’t filming. Of course magazine articles are going to be part of that money making machine, they want to cash in on this info too! So I don’t know why this idea is so shocking to Jacqueline and Caroline. I find Jaqs a little bit too dramatic

  I must agree…Teresa can be a bit much, but it is her business. Jac is a nutcase…sorry to her fans, it is what it is. She is obsessed with Teresa and I am actually getting bored with the entire Teresa thing. But on another note, they are making her a very RICH lady…
  - whoa
    
    I agree. So man act like Teresa is the bad person in this whole thing, but Jac is just as big of a nutcase as Teresa. If she wants to act like the bigger person then she needs to stop throwing the insults towards Teresa out all the time. Jac doesn’t want to be friends with her then fine, she can keep her mouth shut about her as well. The fact that these women claim what happens on that show as reality is hilarious. You can’t believe anything that comes out of their mouths because you have no idea what is true and what isn’t.

  I’m not even Teresa’s friend but it makes me furious when people go through bankruptcy without learning a thing! Don’t kid yourself, we all are paying when people walk away and begin the same things that got them there in the first place. Wouldn’t we all love a free do-over? Get a clue Teresa!

Yeah, finally someone is seeing Teresa´s manipulative bevavior for what it is! Thank you, Starcasm! All other blogs are so biased and in any case defending Teresa. I don´t have to be on anybody´s “side” to see how jealous and selfish she is and how she continues to play the victim. Hard to believe other viewers cannot recognize that!!!

Last week Teresa did say that she gets paid for those interviews. but on WWHl she said no, and my Boo Andy Cohen questioned her about what she said, she said I never said that I got paid, she called it “business”
- Jennifer
  
  Teresa said she didn’t get paid for the interview, just the pictures. Don’t you listen? And Andy always attempts to make Teresa look bad.

I have read both blogs, and I believe Jacqueline. I do not believe Teresa. I do not understand how anyone could watch and not see it that way, but oh well, Teresa does have many adoring fans – then again, so does Bethenny, the ultimately vile former “Housewife”.
