Danielle Staub claimed that during her first reunion on Real Housewives of New Jersey, Margaret Josephs handed her “court documents” about Dolores Catania’s ex-husband Frank getting disbarred from the law, hoping that Danielle would reveal it on camera.

She also claimed that Melissa and Joe Gorga asked her to expose information about his sister Teresa Giudice and her then-husband Joe Giudice. In 2014, Teresa and Joe pleaded guilty to fraud and spent time in prison. Throughout many seasons of the show, Melissa and Joe have fallen in and out of feuds with Teresa.

“[At] Margaret’s first reunion, she hands me … court papers, court documents,” recalled Danielle in a video on social media, shared by @AllRhonj on X. “And [her ex-husband] Frank was in court that day. And I didn’t know any of this, like that Dolores didn’t know. And I didn’t even know Frank was in court.”

“So she hands me this paperwork and she wants me to tell Dolores the news that actually got delivered to her anyway, [which] was that he was … getting disbarred for buying a gym with somebody’s money that was put in escrow,” she went on, “for a case that he was handling.”

Danielle said she told Margaret no, and she claimed Melissa and Joe “asked me to get involved” in their own drama and expose information on Teresa and Joe Giudice.

“Apparently, the Gorgas had information on them,” she said. “It was just a hot mess, the whole thing. But I wouldn’t do that either, [but] I probably would have been a lot safer [if I had].”

“They had to work extra hard to make me look the way I looked,” she added cryptically before seemingly referencing her second exit from the show. “If they would have just … shone the light just a little more brightly on what was actually happening, I might have been able to stick around to enjoy that instead of being the one that had to endure it all. I would have shared that.”
