Real Housewives of New Jersey: 5 biggest takeaways from Mudslinging in Mexico

2. Danielle Staub befriends Jennifer Aydin

We would never say that Danielle is calculated when it comes to picking her friends, but the way she latched onto Jennifer in Cabo was a little suspicious. It’s obvious that Danielle will never turn on Teresa because Teresa is the star of the series, so that left Danielle with Margaret and Melissa. Danielle began to put a wedge between them last week by telling the group that Margaret said not to trust Teresa or Melissa. Margaret accused Danielle of twisting her words, and Melissa sided with Margaret.

Flash forward to the mudslinging in Mexico which saw Jennifer & Margaret have a blowout fight at dinner. Danielle immediately followed Jennifer when she left the table, and she had plenty to say about Margaret. Ever since the two had a falling out after Danielle’s wedding, it’s felt like Danielle has it out for the powerhouse in pigtails.

There is a lot of growing animosity between Jennifer & Margaret, and Danielle appears to be loving it. The group is on the verge of being split down the middle during this Cabo trip. Jackie/Melissa/Margaret on one side and Danielle/Jennifer/Teresa on the other with Dolores somewhere in the middle. Danielle taking the side of Jennifer is likely to trigger Margaret, so what happens next should be exciting.
