Jennifer Aydin revealed what was “cut out” of the season finale of Real Housewives of New Jersey, and she shared what actually “trigger[ed]” her to insult Danielle Cabral’s husband Nate. Meanwhile, alum Kim DePaola also shared what viewers “missed.”
According to the sequence of the episode, Jennifer – seemingly out of nowhere – told Danielle that her husband has “boobs.” Danielle then threw a pitcher at her, and Teresa Giudice and Dolores Catania immediately stepped in to protect Jennifer.
“How convenient that they cut out what [Danielle] said about my husband first, triggering me to say that about her husband,” wrote Jennifer of the finale fight, via @joyrosenberg on X. “Everyone there heard her and they all told her she should’ve never [have] mentioned my husband first.”
“But since you didn’t see that, figured I’d share,” Jennifer added.
On Live with Dana Wilkey, Kim D. also addressed what wasn’t shown.
“Listen, there was … more than the pitchers,” said Kim, via @therealhousewifeofwestchester on Instagram. “[Danielle] threw it and it hit glasses, everything. There was glass everywhere.”
Kim suggested that Teresa and Dolores’ reaction to the pitcher throw – they “jump[ed] so fast” to shield Jennifer – indicated that viewers “missed a lot” of what led up to it.
She then pointed out Jennifer’s claim that the show “cut” a lot of things that “Danielle said about Bill.”
“There was a lot [more] being said … that pushed Jen to say what she said,” explained Kim.
Back in June on the Miss Understood podcast, Kim first hinted at the finale.
“Danielle Cabral picked up a glass pitcher of water and threw it,” shared Kim at the time. “And it was really shocking.”
“This [fight], I heard, was really bad,” the alum continued. “Glass broken. People could have really got hurt. What if glass went in someone’s eye? … Things happened in this finale that blew the producers’ minds.”
Kim also addressed how the traditional reunion was canceled.
“They all expected a check on June 27th to show up at the reunion. It’s a three-part series. What happens is the producers lose a ton. Millions. The editors, the producers, the cast, makeup artists. Everybody loses in this. So [the fight] had to be pretty bad for them to cancel it.”
