RHONJ’s Margaret Josephs Says Teresa is “Dead to [Her],” Admits She Doesn’t Care What Happens to Luis

Margaret Josephs won’t be following in the footsteps of Joe and Melissa Gorga when it comes to their recent reunion with Teresa Giudice.

With the 15th season of The Real Housewives of New Jersey still up in the air, Margaret, 58, has revealed that she has no interest in making amends with her one-time pal and her husband, Luis Ruelas, 50, confirming that they will “never” be friends and admitting that she doesn’t care “what happens” to her controversial spouse.

“Do you think that you guys will ever be friends?” Margaret was asked on the July 3 episode of the BILF Pod, as seen in a clip shared by ALLRHONJ on TikTok.

“Never,” Margaret replied. “I will never acknowledge her again. I will never look at her again. I don’t want to have anything to do with her. Never in a million years.”

Although Margaret is not open to being around Teresa at all, she admitted that she wishes her “no ill [will].”

“She has horrible issues. I pray that she gets out of them for the sake — because I did have a relationship with her at one point. So I don’t want anything bad to happen to her or her daughters or her family,” Margaret explained. “Her husband, I could give two sh*ts what happens to him.”

“[I’ll] never have a relationship with her again. No. Those days — that ship has sailed,” she continued. “By the way, when you’re dead to me, you’re dead. And that’s it. And she’s dead to me.”

While the host argued that she doesn’t move in the same way and prefers to give people second chances, Margaret pointed out that she’d given Teresa “endless chances.”

“She orchestrated having my hair pulled [by Danielle Staub]. She’s thrown an entire table of food at me. They’ve done horrible, horrible [things]. They’ve had endless chances,” she stated. 

Then, when the host pointed out that what she’s endured on RHONJ has been at the hands of “grown” women, Margaret argued that some of the cast were actually more like “toddlers in adult bodies.”

The Real Housewives of New Jersey has been on hiatus since the conclusion of its 14th season in August 2024.

Kyle Cooke and Amanda Batula are reportedly living separately and facing relationship challenges after four years of marriage.

Ahead of the upcoming 10th season of Summer House, and after Amanda, 34, expressed a desire to distance herself professionally from Kyle, 43, and his Loverboy canned alcohol brand on season nine, an insider has revealed that the two of them are no longer living together.

While the source told Page Six on November 12 that there is trouble in paradise when it comes to Kyle and Amanda, another insider clarified that while the couple was “going through a challenging time,” they were “not on a break” and were “both committed to working on their relationship.”

As Summer House fans well know, Kyle and Amanda began dating in 2016, amid the Bravo reality series’ debut season. Then, after getting engaged in 2018 during season three, they wed in 2021 during season six, with Carl Radke, 40, serving as their officiant.

While Kyle and Amanda have faced ups and downs along the way, and seemed to be on different pages when it came to where they wanted to live and when they wanted to start a family, their biggest issue appeared to be the ongoing infidelity rumors they faced since Kyle admitted to cheating on Amanda before they got engaged.

Most recently, in June 2024, Kyle was accused of “making out” with another woman in Charleston. And when Amanda posted and deleted a photo of herself in a “Boys Lie” sweatshirt days later, the rumor was further fueled.

Still, speaking to E! News earlier this year, Amanda, who recently launched a swimwear line in an effort to get out of Kyle’s “shadow,” denied that she and Kyle were headed for divorce.

“Our entire relationship there have been some sort of rumors going on, from me being pregnant to us getting divorced. It seems to be something new every time, but none of them are true. I’m not pregnant, we’re not getting divorced,” she stated.

No word yet on a premiere date for Summer House season 10.
