Margaret Josephs<\/strong>\u00a0isn\u2019t so sure about\u00a0Teresa Giudice<\/strong>\u2018s recent\u00a0reconciliation\u00a0with\u00a0Joe<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Melissa Gorga<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n As Melissa, 46, reacted to questions surrounding the authenticity of their makeup session, as well as their motivation for making nice after\u00a0years of estrangement, the\u00a058-year-old\u00a0<\/p>\n Credit: Iris Zimmerman\/INSTARimages, Todd Williamson\/Bravo<\/p>\n \u201cI feel it shouldn\u2019t be played out in the press, and I think it\u2019s weird to be played out in the press, but that\u2019s just me,\u201d Margaret told\u00a0Us Weekly\u00a0at\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s their family. I want it to be genuine for the sake of Melissa and Joe \u2014 I know it\u2019s genuine on their part,\u201d she continued. \u201cI think things like this have to be done in a therapeutic setting and behind closed doors, and not to be played out in the press. This has been done many, many times.\u201d<\/p>\n Although Margaret is glad to see a family back together, she said she wouldn\u2019t be following\u00a0Melissa\u2019s lead\u00a0with a reunion of her own.<\/p>\n \u201cSome things would have to really change and it\u2019s not [the] right time,\u201d she shared of making up with Teresa, 53. \u201cI think there\u2019s too many things in the way, and it\u2019s just not correct.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI don\u2019t wish her any ill, because I think she has enough pain and enough\u00a0horrible things\u00a0going on, and I\u2019m concerned for her,\u201d she noted.<\/p>\n As for season 15, Margaret said she would love for\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cI love Jersey. I love what we had. I don\u2019t miss last season. That was ugly,\u201d she explained. \u201cI would love the fun Jersey to come back \u2026 I\u2019m not allowed to really discuss [test filming]. But, you know, Jersey is always doing something to keep it moving.\u201d<\/p>\n Also at BravoCon, Melissa addressed fans\u2019 questions about her and Joe\u2019s\u00a0newfound friendship\u00a0with Teresa during a panel event.<\/p>\n \u201cI know a lot of you, like, there\u2019s a lot of doubt. Right? Which, do I blame you? No. I understand that there\u2019s a lot of questions and there\u2019s a lot of people wondering if things are happening for the wrong reasons and if we\u2019re making up cuz we know we\u2019re the heart and soul of that show and we\u2019re gonna kind of try to bring it back,\u201d Melissa shared, as seen in a clip shared by\u00a0<\/p>\n In addition to seeing that her husband felt good about his reconciliation with Teresa, Melissa pointed out that she and Teresa have\u00a0seven children\u00a0between them who \u201cgrew up together.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cSo if my husband looks at me with relief in his face and has one sister on this planet and says, \u2018It\u2019s authentic. I feel it. She\u2019s being real, let\u2019s put trust. Let\u2019s try this,\u2019 I\u2019m never gonna look at him and say, \u2018No,\u2019\u201d she stated. \u201cI\u2019m never gonna be that girl. So I\u2019m gonna try.\u201d<\/p>\n Continuing on, Melissa said that she and Teresa have taken a different approach to making amends this time around.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019re not doing it in front of the cameras this time \u2014 this time, which is different, and it feels different. So I have really good faith in this. So trust in us this time. Please, believe in us,\u201d she added. \u201cWe\u2019re just like, giggling and laughing. No one\u2019s talking about the past, and it feels really good.\u201d<\/p>\n The Real Housewives of New Jersey<\/em> has been on pause since August 2024.<\/p>\n Patricia Bethune, who won a Daytime Emmy for playing demented nurse and Ryan Chamberlain murder victim Mary Pat Ingles on\u00a0General Hospital<\/em>, has a new book out.<\/p>\n Bethune has written a novel called\u00a0<\/p>\n According\u00a0to her website, the book \u201cis a lyrical, character-driven compact novel that follows an American schoolteacher who travels to Ireland to trace her roots \u2014 only to be drawn into a mystical journey where the past speaks, spirits stir, and a centuries-old famine tragedy demands reckoning.\u201d<\/p>\n The book is available in\u00a0hardcover print as well\u00a0as audiobook and other digital formats.<\/p>\n The former\u00a0General Hospital<\/em>\u00a0actor has been promoting the book on her social media for several weeks.
