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.

Tamar Braxton’s marriage to Vince Herbert has been a subject of public scrutiny for years. Many people have speculated that Tamar married Vince for his money, but as the couple’s story unfolds, it’s clear that their relationship was more complex than that. While their marriage did have its challenges, it’s important to separate fact from speculation.

One thing that stands out is the way Vince Herbert himself explained their relationship. He once stated that Tamar had her own money before meeting him. Contrary to what some believe,

This small but telling detail dispels the notion that their marriage was purely about financial gain. What makes their story even more significant is the fact that Vince never made Tamar sign a prenuptial agreement

. This speaks volumes about his trust in their relationship and his belief in their commitment to each other. Tamar, having the option to walk away from the marriage with everything in the divorce, chose instead to leave with nothing, a gesture that showed her love for Vince was genuine. Her choice to leave everything behind is a powerful reminder that sometimes love is about what you give, not what you take.

However, things didn’t remain perfect, and their marriage eventually began to suffer. As with many relationships, the challenges arose when they began mixing business with marriage. Vince, a well-known music executive, and Tamar, a rising star in her own right, were both heavily invested in their careers. Unfortunately, this blend of business and personal life put a strain on their relationship, and they found themselves struggling to maintain a balance.

It’s no secret that the pressures of the entertainment industry can create stress on even the strongest of relationships. Tamar and Vince’s story was no different, and their journey together is a testament to the complexities that come with fame, business, and personal lives intertwined. The constant media attention and the expectations placed on them added layers of difficulty to an already challenging relationship.

While their marriage ended in divorce, it’s important to recognize that their love for each other was real, even when things started to fall apart. The public’s view of Tamar and Vince’s relationship may have been clouded by rumors, but the truth remains that their bond began with love, and it ended because of the strains that come with mixing love and business.

Despite their differences and the ultimate breakdown of their marriage, Tamar and Vince’s story is a reminder that love is never as simple as it seems from the outside. There were real emotions, real challenges, and real sacrifices made. For Tamar, the lesson learned was that love and career need balance, and sometimes, walking away is the hardest, yet most necessary, decision.
