Stuck in Reality

'Real Housewives of New Jersey' Sisters Caroline & Dina Manzo Feud Takes a Dramatic Turn

dina and carolineAchieving peace in the Middle East seems easier than getting any of the warring Real Housewives of New Jersey to call a truce. But it looks like the feud between Caroline Manzo and sister Dina could finally be over.

Caroline's boys Christopher and Albie told Us Magazine that a year after they ladies had a falling out, they are speaking again.

Caroline had long blamed friend-turned-enemy Teresa Giudice for the dispute but Dina, who is still close to Giudice, denied it. It wasn't until this past Mother's Day that they finally chatted. They have even been texting since the sit down.

While that relationship is on the mend, the Manzo brothers said their moms is still on the outs with Teresa and her husband Joe.

"I got to spend a lot of time with Joe and Teresa. We had a really cool relationship. It does bother me that everyone's in this different mind frame with each other ... We had a front row seat to a lot of this stuff. We've seen how television can change a person's personality -- it's tough for us. It's a shame."

Well, at least two of the women are no longer at war. Maybe this will lead to the one functional female relationship among that whole drama loving crew. It's about time, wouldn't you say. As entertaining as these spats usually are, it's sad the castmates can't maintain a normal, nurturing bond for any length of time. 


What do you think of the constantly bickering Real Housewives? Entertaining or over it?

    I think there is no way to reason with Teresa. Everybody tries and she won't change her thoughts or opinions. I think she could use some therapy. We all could use some therapy.

    Because Dina was "padrina" or Godmother to Teresa's youngest kid, I think the plot thickened from there. Sisters are sisters and nothing short of murder should separate them. Hopefully Dina recognizes the person Teresa really is.

    TERESA IS NUTS. ONLY ONE WAY TO PUT IT. THIS WOMAN THINKS HER BROTHER SHOULD LOVE HER MORE THAN HIS OWN WIFE, AND KIDS. SHE IS NUTTY, AND HER HUSBAND SHOULD GO. BOTH OF THEM. HE ALWAYS IS TALKING ABOUT GAYS, OR ANYONE HE CAN THINK OF. I AM SURE HE HAS TIES TO THE MOB. CANT STAND THOSE TWO. OR THE KIDS. THEY ARE BRATS. CAROLINE AT LEAST HAS CLASS.

    Wonder if the comments could actually not mention Teresa? Why not just focus on the fact that the article is about Caroline and Dina!

    We all know that Teresa is very blind to reality and believes whatever her mind and Joe tells her to believe. Teresa is a hustler and she doesn't care who she takes down to make money and that's terrible. I understand she had to pay 11 million dollars in debt back and if you are going to do something in the press at-least let your friends know beforehand. I love Caro-line's boys. Isn't it amazing how much they are starting to look alike since they are getting older. Albie use to be gorgeous. I honestly don't feel bad for Caroline. I remember how she treated Danielle so Karma is a b##x10.  And Danielle was right about everything she said. Isn't it amazing how life turns.

    Teresa may well be crazy, but I've long though it's more like crazy like a fox. She IS that show, and she's laughing all the way to the bank. I do not believe that Caroline is the saint many others do, I'm glad she and her sister are speaking again. I've lost interest in the show because it's just too sad to see families ripped apart by all the bull. I think nearly everyone the show is nuts, but they're FAMILY, and this show is taking them all down.

    But the mention of Melissa is a 2 faced bi**h appears nowhere. Is everyone oblivious to this piece of s**t. I can't believe it. Are we watching the same show. Teresa said it best in next weeks episode, JEALOUSY!!.
