The food hit the fan in the season finale of The Real Housewives of New Jersey, with Dina Mazo‘s sister Caroline taking the fall for her dirty work in exposing the past of Danielle Staub. But now Dina is saying that she never denied spreading the dirt (um, yeh she did), and she’s telling all about her current relationships with Danielle, as well as her sister-in-law, Jacqueline (who took Danielle’s side). Here are the highlights:
At dinner Jacqueline said that you were lying — and that you, not your sister, exposed the book. What did you think of that remark and Caroline taking the blame?
I felt bad because it wasn’t like I didn’t do it but [Caroline] did. In hindsight, when I look at the footage, I wish I would have said, “Say what you want, I really don’t care,” because that’s how I felt. I never denied anything. That’s what’s making me mad right now is that it seems like I was lying…. So Jacqueline misunderstood what I was saying. She thought I was saying I never had anything to do with it. But, no, I had everything to do with it.
Are you and Jacqueline talking again?
Oh yeah, everything’s cool now. We were at a bad place [during filming] and it wasn’t totally Danielle’s fault. Of course the situation had a lot to do with it. We’re fine now. That’s the most important thing.
What is your relationship with Danielle like now?
Like a business arrangement. We’re civil. And that’s all I ever wanted. There’s no reason for us to love or hate each other. We treat each other like grown women — adults — should treat each other. There’s no reason for hugs or kisses and there’s no reason for backstabbing.
The women on these shows act like high school girls with a big fat allowance. They need to grow up, realize the earth doesn’t revolve around them, and show some concern for someone other than themselves.
One prop I will give to the New Jersey cast is that they seem to be much more involved in the lives of their kids than some other casts (like New York). I guess because it’s a suburbia thing rather than a big city thing they have some families values. A little pyscho, but values nonetheless.
