Jacqueline Laurita's absence during the season 3 reunion of Bravo's Real Housewives of New Jersey confused many viewers - which in response triggered several falsified online rumors about her leaving the cast for good.
Here's the
scoop:
Bravo executives weren't quite too thrilled about Jacqueline missing in action during the season 3 reunion, but it was her excessive tweeting & exposure of [season 4] key storyline developments which led several viewers to believe that her role as "cast member" was discontinued and to be replaced by
Kim Granatell.
That would technically make plenty of sense (in a perfect world), but unfortunately it's not one bit true and I'll explain why. Season 4 has
already been filming since before the season 3 reunion even aired, and Jacqueline has been filming along with the rest of the current cast - Melissa, Kathy, Teresa, and Caroline.
It's inevitable that Kim's character will undoubtedly show up again during season 4, but as for the rumors about her joining the [official] cast, we can just set them apart as taboo. Besides, Kim has been
allegedly working with
Michael Lohan (who was recently arrested again) for an upcoming new show - she's also been scouting for her very own show, separate from any Bravo housewives franchise.
Bravo has been very strategic for filming the new season 4 while the current season 3 is playing on air, it builds more drama amongst the cast for the show and instigates false rumors - all of this is such a great recipe for higher ratings.
There have been several accusations against Jacqueline for exposing
Joe Guidice's secret relationship with his mistress,
Davana Medina - but
Kim Granatell (along with
Tom Murro) is actually taking the credit for releasing the pictures of Joe & Davana to the public.
Now that Teresa is portrayed as the new Danielle for the next season, everyone wants to know what exactly is going to happen between the cast. Caroline has accused Teresa for her current separation from Dina, and Jacqueline has also turned her back on Teresa as well - but that's okay, because Teresa is
allegedly set to record her own cooking show after she's done filming for season 4 of Real Housewives of New Jersey.
You know, it seems as though Teresa is just stressed to the max and trying to keep it together. I hate to say it, (because I don't agree with her excessive buying) but I feel really bad for her. She's trying to honor her marriage, but it does take two. At least with the pic making it so obvious what the affair was all about, she most likely doesn't have to worry about Joe being super involved emotionally.
