Everything the RHONJ Cast Has Said About Season 15
The Real Housewives of New Jersey franchise has officially hit a wall. The stars stand divided, and storylines that include physical altercations and toxicity have become the norm. Thanks, we hate it. Now, Bravo has to decide how they can effectively move this series forward. If you ask us, the network should turn to their current stars about this topic, as their full-timers are all speaking out about RHONJ Season 15.
Rachel Fuda has a dream cast in mind for RHONJ Season 15
After a very "dark" season 14 of Real Housewives of New Jersey, Rachel Fuda had some ideas for the next season of the show. https://t.co/FGtUYO5rRR

Dear Bravo. Rachel Fuda has done some legwork for you. Speaking to US Weekly, Rachel, a cast member since Season 13, has an ideal cast list in mind for RHONJ Season 15. Her list, for the record, contains zero surprises.
Rachel wants her friends to stay on this cast. “I have worked my whole adulthood to create a positive, happy environment for me and my family,” Rachel began. But her efforts failed in Season 14, as she had to surround herself with “negative, toxic people.”
Therefore, Rachel only wants to see herself, Melissa Gorga, Danielle Cabral, and Margaret Josephs on the returning cast list for Season 15. Mixed in, Rachel wants a few new faces added on. Once these new hires sign, if any spaces exist, Jennifer Fessler would be a decent add, says Rachel.
If Bravo brings Teresa Giudice back, Rachel might flee. Their feud is “much deeper” than what this series showed.
Melissa Gorga is “prepared for anything”
Recently appearing alongside Teddi Mellencamp and Tamra Judge on their podcast, Two Ts in a Pod, Tamra did what she does best. She quickly dove into the hot topics, asking Mel if she was concerned about Season 15. She also wanted to know if Melissa was concerned for her future on this series, as the network might decide to keep Teresa and not her.
Melissa is “prepared for anything.” She has to be, as “the rumors” surrounding the casting are so varied. But if Teresa returns, Mel does not wish to stay because that is “toxic sh*t.”
Mel admits that changes need to happen. She also hopes she is present when these changes occur. But should Bravo go in a “dark” direction and bring back Tre and not her, she will survive. She’s had a solid “fourteen-year (calendar-wise) run,” after all.
Melissa has done her time. If her time ends now, she will be okay. But coming back, sans Teresa, is her desire.
If Dolores Catania is asked to leave RHONJ, she will do so with “grace”
Dolores Catania sat down with Jeff Lewis on his SiriusXM radio series, Jeff Lewis Live. These two discussed the disaster better known as RHONJ, as Jeff began worrying about a few of her temperamental cast mates. Jeff thinks some of her costars might go after Bravo should they get fired. Jeff himself did this years ago, but he now realizes the error in his ways.
Thankfully, should the ax fall in her direction, Dolores will react calmly, slinking back into the shadows of a non-filmed life. “I always said no matter how our expiration date happens … I would leave gracefully with gratitude because this [series] has done so much for me,” she answered, like a calm and collected queen.
Turning possible lemons into laughter, Dolores joked, “Did I ever deserve to be on TV? I should have been a Housewife from Totowa.” She then ended with a nod to her “beautiful life,” which she is “always grateful [for].” Even if the curtains close for her on RHONJ Season 15, Dolores will remain kind to all, thrilled for the ride she once rode.
Danielle Cabral wants everyone to stop obsessing over RHONJ Season 15
Danielle is tired. Appearing on the Virtual Reali-Tea Podcast, hosted by Page Six, the host asked Danielle who she would like to see returning for Season 15. At this, Danielle laughed. She thinks everyone is “obsessed” with this question.
“Go to the beach. Celebrate the last two weeks of summer,” Danielle quipped. The hosts chuckled. They then switched gears, telling Danielle that in most of the polls they have seen online, her name comes up often.
The viewers (mostly) want her back on this series. However, several other viewers have noted that Danielle, Teresa, and Dolores should all return. But the others will need to skedaddle. Danielle laughed, and then she shared her thoughts on this take.
Sighing and shrugging, Danielle says this decision would be “All right.” As a newer hirer, She has no skin in this game. Therefore, whatever happens, Danielle will roll with it.
They also talked about Reality Tea without saying our name. Cue NeNe Leakes, stressing, “So nasty and so rude.” Just kidding. We live for all shout-outs.
To explain, we cast Danielle as Britney Spears in Brit’s upcoming biopic. Everyone laughed. But, if Bravo takes away her gig on RHONJ Season 15, Danielle is free to focus on our vision.
Jennifer Aydin has “no fear” about her future on Bravo
Jennifer Aydin is my wild card. She stands with Teresa, but in Season 14, she and Melissa had a few great moments together. Jennifer could have been the glue that brought these hotheaded ladies back together. But sadly, peace never came.
Instead, physical aggressions and leaked narratives arrived. These acts placed Jennifer in the hot seat. Her future on Bravo could now go either way. Jennifer seems to know this as well.
In a red carpet interview with The Daily Mail, the subject matter of moving forward arose once again, as it does. Yet, Jennifer has zero fears over her potential rehiring or firing status. Whatever the Bravo bosses say is fine by her.
If Bravo cuts her from this series, that is on them, and she will survive. Instead of filming, she will happily “go back to counting” her “Ferraris.” Dead. Thankfully, only one of these counted-on rides (that we know of) has held her spewed-out liquor.
Margaret Josephs wants Melissa to stay on RHONJ
Like Melissa, Margaret recently sat down for a session in The Twot Seat. On her episode, Tamra and Teddi grilled her about her messy show, as Marge recalled moments where Teresa, Melissa, and Joe Gorga almost saw the light. After Teresa returned home from prison, Margaret claimed that Joe and Melissa “were extremely good to her. They included her all the time.”
However, “She [Teresa] is a horrible grudge-holder,” Margaret added. “She would still say things to me about Melissa, and I was like, ‘Stop.’ And I would try and bring them together,” but as we all saw, any efforts on her part failed.
As for the future of this series, Margaret admits that anything is possible. Whatever happens, “it’s been a great run,” she stated.
On her part, Margaret will always feel “very blessed,” no matter what the network decides. But, when it boils down to either Teresa or Melissa getting to keep their jobs, Margaret did not mince her words. She chooses Melissa.
Melissa “brings so much light and happiness and fun. There is no question in my mind. Good triumphs over evil,” Margaret ended.
Teresa Giudice says she is “not leaving” RHONJ
Last but never least stands the OG named Teresa. On Live with Kelly & Mark, Teresa stressed that she cannot move forward with Joe and Melissa. However, she admits that everyone is at peace, even though they are now living separate lives.
Kelly then asked Tre if the rumors of her leaving RHONJ on her own accord were true. Her ask shocked Teresa, who questioned, “Really? Who put those rumors out there? Maybe some of my cast members.”
And then, Teresa answered. “No. I’m not leaving. I started the show, and when Bravo wants me to leave, that’s when I’ll leave,” she replied. “That will be never,” Kelly joked.
Bravo now has a tough call to make. If Tre and Mel wish to stay, they need to make peace. If they cannot, they need to fake it like crazy and convince the powers that be of their newly found quasi-growth. Otherwise, everyone cannot return for RHONJ Season 15.
Real Housewives of New Jersey can be streamed on Peacock.
