Jennifer Aydin revealed how Teresa Giudice reacted to her Jersey Mike’s drama during an interview last week.
As the 47-year-old Real Housewives of New Jersey star continues to be shamed for what has been described as “unhinged” and “despicable” behavior toward the restaurant’s staff and a fellow patron, the mother of five discussed a number of her castmates, including Teresa, 52, Dolores Catania, 54, and Danielle Cabral, 39, while also admitting to being “spoiled” by husband Bill Aydin, 51, suspecting she’d be “blessed” by the scandal, and reacting to legal threats.
“[Teresa] was just like, ‘You shouldn’t have said about the old lady,’ which I acknowledged that,” Jennifer revealed to Us Weekly during a recent interview, giving a nod to her claim that a Jersey Mike’s staffer was 80 years old.
Following the incident, as some may have heard, Jennifer was fired from a cruise appearance she was supposed to be a part of, along with Teresa and Dolores.
“Teresa of course, she called me every day on vacation. Teresa’s one of my closest friends. She checks on me,” Teresa explained. “Dolores didn’t check on me, but Dolores and me really don’t keep in touch so much like that off-season. I’m sure she’s busy.”
Jennifer is also not in touch with Danielle, with whom she got physical during season 14.
“You mean Scam-ielle? Scam-ielle? [Who made] her hair girl, who she never paid, take down all the posts that include her, which was her form of payment?” she asked of her co-star, who called her a “piece of sh*t” after her Jersey Mike’s rant. “I may put people on blast and make them take accountability, which Scam-ielle should know this best … I pay my bills. I pay people. I don’t hustle people and take something for nothing. Sometimes you have to look at the opinion and where it’s coming from. So we’re good, Scam-ielle. You keep it moving!”
While Jennifer has been labeled “entitled” and “privileged” in recent weeks, she denied any such thing.
“This is not privilege. I’m a paying customer … They were so … not even just rude. Like dismissive, uninterested. They didn’t want to help,” she explained.
According to Jennifer, she and Bill are “big tippers.”
“Even when Bravo gets us cars, BIll’s always tipping the chauffeur, Bill’s always tipping everybody cuz he goes, ‘You know what? They’re working for a living and if they can’t expect a tip from us, then who can they expect a tip from?’ Like, that’s really how we roll,” she declared. “Anyone who has worked with me, I mean, I’m getting texts up the wazzo, ‘You are the kindest, most generous woman.’”
After suggesting that she only told the staff and patron that she was a “f*cking celebrity” after someone else in the store mentioned it, Jennifer said that because she’s a “public figure,” she doesn’t have the “right to” complain and alluded to the idea that the backlash she received shows how popular she is.
“I don’t think I’m as famous as some people may think I am. I had no idea that my stuff [would go] viral,” she explained.
Continuing to defend herself, Jennifer said her husband wouldn’t be married to her if she was as “disgusting and toxic” as she’s been painted to be.
“He would not. And he spoils me rotten,” she noted. “You think that guy’s stupid enough to spoil bad behavior? But people will never be happy for me … I’m so blessed. I pull up to my house. I pinch myself. I didn’t grow up in something like this.”
Looking ahead to her future, Jennifer said that because certain staff members from Jersey Mike’s have benefited financially from the situation, she expects blessings to come her way.
“I’m very happy for anybody that has monetized on this journey. It has not been me, but I’m happy for that because, actually, that’s a paying-it-forward type of thing. That’s a blessing that will come back to my way,” she reasoned.
As for the attorney customer’s threat of legal action if she were to post him online, which she did, Jennifer said she was not scared.
“I have a video that shows my behavior. I have a video that shows his behavior. If anyone wants to come and sue, I have attorneys that are on my payroll. And they’ll defend me. And that’s it,” she revealed.
In closing, Jennifer expressed interest in moving on from the drama, saying, “I’m done with Jersey Mike’s. I’m more of a Subway kind of girl anyway, but there was no Subway at the airport.”
