A day after Anderson Cooper
While Cooper stood by his criticism of her behavior and the show's constant stream of negative drama, he told Giudice he felt he had been rude in how he confronted her Wednesday, and wanted to make amends.
"After I did that interview, someone in the audience, a guy named Bobby who was a teacher, said I had been rude. And it made me really sad that I would have been rude, because I didn't really want to be rude," Cooper confessed.
Instead of criticize Giudice as he did on Wednesday's show, when he compared her maturity level to a 12-year-old's, Cooper asked the controversial "Housewives" star whether her reality fame had turned her into a more confrontational person.
Giudice got emotional at the question and admitted that the reality TV spotlight has come with significant consequences. "I haven't spoken to my brother in over a year. And I hear that fame ruins a family, and it has ruined my family," she answered.

After the housewives’ reunion show – which got uglier than most people were prepared for – Teresa felt she should make the rounds and try to explain her side of things. Cooper called her out for quite a bit of it, saying, “Who cares? You’re not 12-years old!” when she defended her cruel assessment of Caroline during their on-air argument. But he got to the meat of the story very quickly when he brought up Jacqueline's visit to his show, during which he asked her point-blank who had not been supportive of her recent revelation that her son has autism. While Jacqueline swerved around the question, it was clear the answer was Teresa, and when asked about it, Teresa insisted she had reached out to Jacqueline when the news broke…with a text.
When Cooper pressed her, asking why she didn’t call her old friend, Teresa replied, “It’s gone further than that…If I show you the texts she sent to me, it’s like if it keeps going, eventually I’m going to go to the cops because I want her to leave me alone. I did nothing to her.”
Teresa says that there were a “lot of things” said to her during the reunion show that didn’t get caught on camera, and what we saw was her defending herself against them.
Even though she’s not on The Real Housewives of New Jersey anymore, Dina Manzo is putting her two cents in regarding the Posche Fashion Show set up. Instead of agreeing with her family members Jacqueline Laurita and Caroline Manzo — who believe that Teresa Giudice intentionally set up Melissa Gorga — Dina is defending Tre!
Before the Season 4 finale aired on Sunday, Dina tweeted, “My relationship w/ her [Teresa] is based on our relationship w is pleasant, fun & supportive of each other, I never saw a malicious side to her EVER.”
“All I'll say is I filmed my scene AFTER all this & I knew nothing except that everyone was against her...I watch with all of u,” she continued.
