‘The Real Housewives of New Jersey’ star Caroline confessed that she hasn’t spoken to her sister Dina in ‘months’ during the ‘RHONJ’ reunion — and blamed Teresa for the fight. But Dina’s defending Teresa! Read on to see what Dina has to say!
During the The Real Housewives of New Jersey reunion part two that aired on Oct. 24, Caroline Manzo revealed that she hasn’t spoken with her sister and former RHONJ co-star Dina Manzo in months. She even implied that Teresa Giudice was to blame for her fight with her sister. Well, in her new personal blog, Dina speaks out and basically sides with Teresa!
After months of not speaking to any of her former RHONJ stars, “Teresa showed up at my doorstep in tears,” Dina explains of how they reconnected. “Apparently Caroline & Jacqueline [Laurita] had a sit down with her on camera (for season 4) and she felt attacked. All I did was console a friend who was obviously shaken. I felt bad for her … even though I had distanced myself from her a bit I was still her friend and she needed me.”
And then Dina went to support Teresa at a product launch. “She mentioned the drama with her and Caroline and I told her that if this is all about a joke in a book (and she assured me it was) that’s not enough for me to hate the mother of my God daughter and a friend of 15 years,” says Dina. “Was it necessary to write that stuff in her book? probably not but I don’t think it was written with malice either. We are all guilty of joking a little too much now & then…’Teresa jokes’ were all over this season, everyone of them took their turn on talkin smack.”
“Some things that I will NOT get into did happen behind the scenes with certain family members and there is no right or wrong really … Feelings did get hurt …” continues Dina. “I would rather stay away from it than fight.”
Dina adds: “There is no side here, this is a private matter there are 3 sides to ever story.”
Dina also claims that she will make up with Caroline. “I feel bad that my relationship with my sister and her family is strained, but I can assure you that one day it will be back to the way it was,” she explains. “I don’t like fighting, I don’t like drama, I don’t like confrontation, I don’t agree with ganging up on someone and I don’t need to share anymore than that.”
Wow! Dina sounds like she’s definitely defending Teresa against Caroline. BFFs — do you think Dina should be taking Teresa’s side or aligning with her sister Caroline?

Wow, Caroline sure did defend Dina none stop in season one, too bad her sister couldn’t be loyal. Anyone with a brain can see Teresa has let the greed of fame to to her head. She wanted to be the breakout star and did everything she could to bet noticed. Hence her going after Danille and now her constant attacks on her brother’s wife. Blood should count for something, but I guess not with Dina.
