Despite the Netflix star (who left a sheltered life in the Orthodox Jewish community of Monsey, NY for a life of fashion in New York City) posting a picture to Instagram with her now estranged husband announcing, “And just like that… we’re back! Day 1 of filming is complete" — Scaglia reportedly refused to be a part of season two of the hit series.
“Silvio told Julia months and months ago that he would not be filming,” a source at the agency told the outlet. “He thought that the first season was important to Julia, and that’s what she wanted, but then he saw the show and he thought, ‘What am I doing?"
“Silvio just launched a multimillion-dollar bitcoin company, he’s a serious man, he didn’t need to be on the show," the insider explained.
