Teresa Giudice is the only original Real Housewives of New Jersey cast member still standing. Way before feuding with Melissa Gorga and Margaret Josephs, Giudice had a huge rift with Og castmate Jacqueline Laurita. But now, the two are friends again.
The first few seasons of Rhonj were a Manzo family affair. The housewives included Caroline Manzo, her sister Dina Manzo (now Dina Cantin), and sister-in-law Laurita. Rounding out the cast were Giudice and Danielle Staub.
Laurita appeared on the Bravo hit show during seasons 1-5. She was a “friend” during season 6, and returned full-time for season 7 which was when she had a falling out with Giudice.

Jacqueline Laurita will officially not be returning to The Real Housewives of New Jersey, Et can exclusively confirm.
Reports surfaced last month that Laurita -- one of the original cast members of the show -- would not be returning for the show’s eighth season. However, the 46-year-old had yet to confirm the news herself until now.
“Unfortunately, I will not be returning,” Laurita tells Et. “I think the feeling [from the network] is that I no longer have an authentic connection with two of the season’s cast members.”
Laurita is seemingly referring to original housewife Teresa Giudice and her sister-in-law, Melissa Gorga, whom she had an explosive argument with during the previous season.
