RHONJ: Danielle Staub is done with the show and pursuing a cooking channel

After sneaking her way back into the good graces of Teresa Giudice and RHONJ in general, Danielle told Andy Cohen that she was done. Again.

Danielle Staub was back for season 10 of RHONJ and stayed on Teresa Giudice’s good side for most of the season, but that is probably coming to an end soon.  While Danielle was on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, she confirmed that she was done with the show.  

Danielle told Andy that she enjoyed her time on the show but wanted to leave and do something that makes her happy, which is apparently cooking.  You can watch her on her Instagram where she regularly posts videos in the kitchen of her cooking away.  Danielle told Andy, “Nope, never returning as a Housewife again… with the Jersey girls.”  Does that mean she’s willing to change states to return?

And though The Real Housewives of New Jersey can be a lot, Danielle was also at the center of almost all of the drama that took place – especially this season with the hair-pulling.  But she said, “I find my peace in the kitchen.”  And by “the kitchen” she definitely means Marty Caffrey’s kitchen.

Danielle was clear that she didn’t regret pulling Margaret Josephs’ hair.  She had Teresa’s support and felt that she was in the right after Margaret dumped water on her head.  Currently, Danielle and Teresa are still friends on the show but it has long been rumored something happens between the two during the finale.

Danielle attended the reunion as a guest, but she and Teresa did not get along at all.  Perhaps Teresa finally listened to her sister-in-law, Melissa Gorga, and stood up for Margaret.  Maybe not.

Melissa was also on WWHL and told Andy, “She served her purpose.”  But either way, you can catch Danielle cooking up a storm in Marty’s kitchen for the foreseeable future if you miss her.

The Real Housewives of New Jersey is on Bravo Wednesday nights at 8 PM!
