Caroline Manzo on RHONJ Reunion: I Wanted to Cry When Teresa Giudice Freaked Out
“I have to admit that I’m not quite sure how to address tonight’s episode. I feel like we’ve been down this ugly road before and quite frankly, I’m ready to take the first exit off the crazy turnpike,” Caroline Manzo says on her blog on last night’s episode.
The cast filmed for 10 hours and Caroline calls it one of the most “frustrating and mentally exhausting things,” she’s ever done. “First, we live and experience what you see week to week in real time. Months go by, and we relive those moments as we watch each episode along with the viewing audience. In that time, we blog about it, talk about it in the different media venues, and answer all of your questions. When we meet to film the reunion, we’re pretty worn out emotionally.”
So it’s stressful. OK. But what about Teresa’s outburst?
“I expected yelling, screaming, and tears. I NEVER expected Andy to get tossed like a rag doll. I was in complete shock when that happened. Actually, I had to compose myself because I wanted to cry. Seriously, I did. When Teresa jumped off the couch and approached Danielle it was literally within the first ten minutes of filming. The only thing going through my mind at that moment, beyond the obvious WTF is going on, was that I couldn’t sit through hours and hours of this. If this is happening now, what’s it going to be like when we get to the real issues?”
But while Caroline found what Teresa did to be “ugly, ugly, ugly,” she also came to blows with Danielle. “I’ve received thousands of comments regarding tonight’s episode with everything from “I love you,” to “You’re a bully.” I get it; it’s totally expected and normal to have a mixed bag of emotions. Guess what? It is what it is. There was absolutely no way in the world I was going to sit quietly and listen to the lies and accusations that were being tossed around. My reactions were genuine and heartfelt. I wasn’t playing to the cameras, and I wasn’t looking for anyone’s sympathy.”
Sounds fair. Caroline may have dished out some choice words, but she didn’t push Andy and kept her butt in her seat.
Caroline you are such a bully and for some apparent reason you feel like you are better than Danielle…How is that possible? You, Jackie and Teresa are complete idiots and you guys have no class what so ever..Maybe when you get in the wrong persons business they’ll back your ass up, because I sure as hell would…Danielle stand up for yourself, who the hell are they no fuckin’ body…Too bad they didn’t have a real person on there who doesn’t see their trashy ass like me…F*** you haters..suck something…
I don’t like Caroline Manzo b/c she wants to be
a bully, she talks a good game but she,s too old
to back it up.(i’ve got integrity) is what she
says.Where and how? You were once a young thug
and now you’re an old washed-up big mouth.What-
ever Dan did in her past is no more thsn what
you did.You hung around thugs until 1 decided
to marry you.So come off of it Caroline,you’re
used merchandise.
Wow…..some of the comments made about Caroline are really awfully cruel and totally unnecessary. I get where Caroline is coming from and can totally understand the situation she’s been put in.
Danielle needs to learn to take as good as she gives.
And to think about her daughters the next time she decides to make an adult film whether it’s with a man, woman, or by herself.
Gross Danielle.
Caroline is not a bully at all. This lady has so much class. Caroline has all the positive energy in her, like her sister Dina. Danielle needs to be the one to move on and stop the drama. I think in out of all the women in the Jersey, Caroline is the one that all the DRAMA QUEENS need to look up to. Keep the positive energy flowing and quit the drama and pay more attention to your children. The End.
People like Teresa give Italian-Americans a bad name. Iwas appalled at her behavior and surprised that Caroline still supports her. Caroline needs to see Teresa for what she is, a crude loud-mouth bad-tempered imbecile. Danielle is who she is, but Teresa is no better. Caroline needs to rethink her alliances.
Caroline Manzo is a no class bully!!!
