The Gorgas were done with how Giudice was treating them and seemingly both parties cut each other out. So that makes filmingThe Real Housewives of New Jerseydifficult. From what we know of Season 14,the two camps are very much divided among the casttoo, and whileAndy Cohenhas saidit works out on the show, that is yet to be seen. And maybe Fuda will be Giudice’s storyline, we just don’t know.
