Teresa Giudice looks back on her famous table flip controversy in The Real Housewives
It's been over a decade, but to fans of Real Housewives of New Jersey, Teresa Giudice's fiery season 1 table flip is still one of the most unforgettably iconic moments in the history of Bravo. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now What began as a fiery argument with cast member Danielle Staub escalated into a pop culture phenomenon—and the moment that launched Teresa into Housewife legend territory. The drama played out in RHONJ season 1's season finale, where a stressful dinner turned out-of-control. Danielle had called out the cast for gossip circulating about a tell-all book that claimed dirty chapters from her own life. "Pay attention, puh-lease!" she challenged the table, addressing them. Teresa, already hot from passive-aggressive remarks, lost it. "Prostitution whore! You were f—— engaged 19 times," Teresa notoriously exclaimed, banging her hands on the table before overturning the dinner table in anger as profanities rained down and pandemonium broke loose. Now, years after the fact, the OG Housewife is looking back at the moment with fresh eyes. On the May 12, 2025 edition of her daughter Gia Giudice's Casual Chaos podcast, Teresa spoke candidly about the days leading up to the attack—and her unexpected admiration for her former rival. "Danielle was… let me tell you, Danielle was made for it. She was TV gold. She really was. She was awesome. She just put it all out there, literally," Teresa explained. "She was fun and very easygoing, just so much fun—even though in the first place, she was like insulting me a little bit. That's what made me flip the table on her, you know?" Teresa described how Staub's sarcastic comments added up over the years. "She would just toss these little barbs at me," she said, remembering one especially sarcastic remark tossed her then-husband Joe: "Don't talk to me like you talk to your wife." Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Teresa conceded, "I take it, I take it, I take it—and then when I don't take it anymore, I blow up." Despite the two having a tumultuous relationship on-camera during the ensuing years, Teresa said that she and Danielle ultimately came to an understanding. "I ended up getting to know her, and then look, we ended up making up later on." In spite of the night's infamous place in Bravo lore, Teresa revealed the rush of adrenaline from the table flip didn't take. Discussing at BravoCon 2023 during the Housewife2Housewife: Day One Diva panel, she discussed the longer emotional resonance of her first seasons and how far she's come since. While the table flip might have set the stage for her emergence into the world, Teresa Giudice is currently more concerned with her peace, family, and transformation—showing that even the most dramatic of reality TV legends can heal outside of the turmoil.

'RHONJ''s Dolores Catania Says She Gained 20 Lbs. After Mounjaro ‘Stopped Working': ‘I'm Having a Really Hard Time'
Dolores Catania revealed she gained 20 lbs. after her Mounjaro 'stopped working' The RHONJ star she's 'having a really hard time' dealing with the weight gain She admitted that there's a possibility her weight gain could be due to the slew of heart medications she's been takingDolores Catania is struggling with weight gain even while taking Mounjaro. On June 6, the Real Housewives of New Jersey star, 54, appeared on SiriusXM's Jeff Lewis Live and talked about taking Mounjaro, an FDA-approved prescription medication for people with type 2 diabetes. It's a brand name for tirzepatide, which is highly effective for weight loss by reducing appetite and improving how the body breaks down sugar and fat. Mounjaro is similar to Ozempic and Wegovy — brand names for semaglutide. They work in the brain to impact satiety and have been trending in and out of Hollywood. Catania — who previously shared that she lost 20 lbs. with the medication — revealed on the show that she's now gained the weight back. 'I'm having a really hard time right now. My Mounjaro stopped working, I gained 20 lbs.,' she shared. 'I've been looking for therapy for all my friends. I'm really having a bad time with this.' Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. Lewis asked if she's able to switch to another medication like Ozempic and she immediately replied, 'I did it all.' Catania said she has since stopped taking the medication for about a month because she needed to undergo a cardiac ablation — a minimally invasive procedure where doctors freeze or burn the inside of the heart to restore a normal heart rhythm. The Bravo star assured that she's 'fine' now and was only in the hospital for the procedure. 'I'm on a bunch of medicine, like, 10 pills a day,' she said. 'It's just a formality now. I have to take it for the next 90 days, then I should be done.' 'Maybe that's why I gained weight,' she said of all the new medications. 'I'm hoping maybe that's why.' ! is now available in the Apple App Store! Download it now for the most binge-worthy celeb content, exclusive video clips, astrology updates and more! Catania previously spoke about her success on Mounjaro in 2023. "I'm down 20 pounds," she told The U.S. Sun, adding that her goal weight "is to be in the low 130s." The reality star admitted that she was previously 'gaining weight every month' and got up to 163 lbs. before trying the medication and seeing some results. 'It doesn't happen overnight. It doesn't come off easy," she said. Catania was originally prescribed Ozempic, taking the drug for two years before switching to Mounjaro in early 2023. 'I was medically prescribed for both because I am insulin resistant/pre-diabetic and have a thyroid issue,' she said at the time. Catania stressed that although she was still hoping to lose more weight on Mounjaro, taking these medications isn't a quick fix to weight loss, insisting that she focuses on exercising, healthy eating, and limiting her drinking — minus the wild nights spent with her RHONJ castmates. "I stopped taking [Ozempic] because it was expensive and everything. But being healthy and living a healthy lifestyle is cheap — it's free!" she told the outlet. "I work out regularly. There is no easy fix for weight loss and I have to watch what I eat." Read the original article on People

Dorinda Medley Has Plans for RHONY; But Will Bravo Listen
Season 15 of didn't perform as well as had hoped. This was the second season with the rebooted cast. The ladies didn't gel, and the season was punctuated with vicious fighting. So, if you were feeling nostalgic for the earlier seasons of RHONY, may have the solution. Bravo, are you listening? Dorinda was famously put 'on pause' and left RHONY. She was heartbroken. Now, it looks like the RHONY franchise, along with Real Housewives of New Jersey, are both in danger. When Bravo announced its renewals and new programming, both shows were missing from the list. After last season's ratings debacle, it was clear that RHONY was ready for some possible cast changes. The show was casting new faces, but there is no word on whether the Season 15 cast was booted. Enter Dorinda and her thoughts on RHONY. 'People miss New York and the nostalgia of the old Housewives,' Dorinda told OK! 'I don't want to say anything bad about the girls because they're just different,' she said of the new cast for Season 14 and 15. 'How can you follow with these girls that literally were each together incredible and individually characters?' Meanwhile, Dorinda feels strongly that combining the current cast with some former RHONY cast members would fix the ailing franchise. Dorinda doesn't 'personally understand' the 'absolute resistance' to combining the casts. I think that would be perfection. 'I don't think you have to get rid of all them, and you say, 'I made a mistake.'' Dorinda explained. 'But I do believe there's a world, if not to put us all back together, to be putting us together on some [level].' Plus, Dorinda hasn't ruled out a return to the franchise. Even if the original members were featured less than the new cast, it would be a welcome change. I'd love to see these two worlds collide! Real Housewives of New York is streaming on Peacock and Hayu in the UK and Ireland. TELL US – SHOULD RHONY MIX CURRENT AND FORMER RHONY CAST MEMBERS? SHOULD DORINDA RETURN? The post Dorinda Medley Has Plans for RHONY; But Will Bravo Listen appeared first on Reality Tea.

Luann de Lesseps Reacts to RHONY Pause
fans were dealt a blow when they learned the show was paused. In 2022, RHONY debuted an all-new cast, but the fan consensus seemed to be that the new co-stars didn't gel. Meanwhile, New York Housewives fans were left wondering what was going on with the series. Now, RHONY alum has weighed in on the pause situation. When Bravo announced its renewals for existing shows, both RHONY and Real Housewives of New Jersey were missing from the list. While the show hasn't been canceled, it is being paused until Bravo can decide how to handle the once fan-favorite franchise. Page Six's Virtual Reali-Tea Instagram showed memes of the castmate's faces along with the caption, 'RHONY is cancelled.' Naturally, Luann took to the comments to share her opinion. And if you expected a bittersweet post about her history on RHONY, you were bound for disappointment. 'How could you do this to me. Question Mark,' she wrote. Of course, this is one of Luann's iconic catchphrases from the show. During Season 8, Luann created the phrase while leaving a text-to-speak message for Tom D'Agostino, her fiancé at the time. Fans were quick to praise Luann's hilarious comment. 'I love that you have the best sense of humor!' one user wrote. Another fan commented, 'The queen on rhony.' Meanwhile, RHONY alum Dorinda Medley is no stranger to pauses. She shared her ideas to save the show just before news of the show's pause broke. 'People miss New York and the nostalgia of the old Housewives,' Dorinda stated. She suggested bringing back some of the original faces to interact with the new cast as a win-win for viewers. Hopefully, this is just a pause for RHONY, and Bravo will come up with a winning formula to bring the franchise back to its glory days. Real Housewives of New York is streaming on Peacock and Hayu in the UK and Ireland. TELL US – WHAT DID YOU THINK OF LUANN'S COMMENT? DO YOU THINK THAT BRAVO WILL CANCEL RHONY?
