An Unseen Conflict with Margaret Josephs
Jackie Goldschneider recently opened up about the breakdown
of her friendship with Margaret Josephs. On a recent episode of Real Housewives of New Jersey, tension arose when Margaret expressed disappointment at Jackie’s failure to reach out on the anniversary of her ex-husband’s death. This conflict seemed to stem from Jackie’s evolving friendships with Teresa Giudice and Jennifer Aydin, who are known adversaries of Margaret.
Discussing these issues with ET Online, Jackie acknowledged the difficulty of witnessing the breakdown
of her relationship with Margaret. However, she also highlighted her excitement in sharing the evolution
of other relationships, including her newfound bond with Teresa.
Loyalty Demands and Rising Tension
Parsing through recent interactions, Jackie admitted that she and Margaret had existing issues even before cameras rolled for the new season. According to Jackie, things escalated once filming began. She commented, I think that Margaret expects and demands a lot of loyalty,
and that such expectations prevented her from moving forward in other areas of her life. Consequently, Jackie felt compelled to distance herself from what she described as a challenging dynamic.
A Memoir Controversy Adds Fuel to the Fire
The argument between Jackie and Margaret intensified when Margaret claimed she never received an advanced copy of Jackie’s memoir. Jackie denied these claims, clarifying that the unfinished press copy was only given to those requesting press interactions. In defense, she asserted she sent the entire cast an advanced copy before its official release.
I sent the entire cast an advanced copy of the book before it came out,
Jackie reiterated, further stressing that there was no significant reason for Margaret to need an earlier copy.
Jackie and Teresa’s Budding Friendship
Amid speculation around Jackie’s motives for befriending Teresa, she dispelled rumors about seeking extra screen time. Instead, she explained their growing closeness as a natural development. No matter what it started as, what it turned into was a really nice friendship,
said Jackie. This bond has continued to blossom, with the pair frequently communicating.
A Reflection on Cast Dynamics
Examining broader RHONJ dynamics this season, Jackie noted considerable friction due to evolving alliances. She pointed out that certain loyalty demands
, especially from Margaret, contributed significantly to escalating tensions within the group.
The Impact on Social Media Practices
When addressing allegations about cast members’ involvement in social media drama, Jackie emphasized her detachment from malicious online behavior. She speculated that some influencers might be seeking fame by making bold claims online, noting that she strives to stay above such behavior.
