'Real Housewives' Teresa Giudice and Dina Manzo Feud Brewing
"Real Housewives of New Jersey" star Teresa Giudice reportedly upset former cast mate Dina Manzo after her stint on "Celebrity Apprentice."
Manzo, who is the younger sister of Bravo reality TV star Caroline Manzo, left the Real Housewives show in 2010 but has maintained her close friendship with Giudice and recently felt let down after the mother of four allegedly snubbed her charity, according to Radar Online.
"Dina founded a charity called Project Ladybug that helps children with cancer and when Teresa was on Celebrity Apprentice she was hoping that the charity she would choose to promote would be hers, but she picked another one, and Dina was very disappointed that Teresa didn't pick hers," Housewives friend Tom Murro told Radar.
Manzo, who like Giudice no longer speaks to Caroline, is one of the few friends that Giudice still has from the Real Housewives show although critics suspect that their friendship may be done for good.
"Teresa led Dina to believe that she was going to use her charity on the show, and Dina was blindsided when hers wasn't chosen," Murro explained.
"Dina is not happy that her long time friend Teresa chose another charity but she isn't going to publicly say anything," he said adding "Dina thinks that this isn't something a best friend should do, and Teresa has crossed the line."
The news comes less than one week after it was reported that Caroline, 50, is plotting to have Giudice, 40, kicked off of the hit Bravo show.
Caroline reportedly blames Giudice for her feud with Manzo, and recently turned to their fellow Housewives co-stars Melissa Gorga and Kathy Wakile in a bid to have the show's producers fire Giudice.
"She's been trying to get the other ladies to all gang up on Teresa and make some kind of ultimatum of 'Teresa or us' to Bravo producers, she believes that could work, but I think she is seriously underestimating the star power of Teresa," a source told Reality Weekly.
