“My brother needs to get therapy because he keeps blaming me for everything. It’s not just me, she has daddy issues. She needs to go get help,” Teresa explained to costars Margaret Josephs and Jackie Goldschneider.

“That’s not nice," the attorney — who is very close friends with Melissa — told the OG Housewife, who spat back, “Jackie, shut the f*** up, get out of my f****** face!”

“Get out of my f****** face, get out of my face, shut the f*** up, get out of my face!” Teresa continued to yell. Jackie then questioned the Skinny Italian author on if she thought it was a “mean thing to say about somebody who lost their dad in a car accident."

“There’s nothing wrong with that,” Teresa made clear. “She’s attached to my brother like, yeah, there’s issues. You’re pissing me the f*** off, you’re getting involved with family!"

“And I need to be around people that are happy for me, people that bring me up. I am focusing on myself, I am focusing on my family... my mental health," she explained. “Starting from Season 3 on, I really didn’t watch the show. I was just busy raising my daughters and it was real hard for me to watch again. That is when my family came on, and it was not a good situation."

“I am definitely watching from now on and I have been watching… I have watched it all and it is sad to watch," the newlywed explained. “In hindsight, I should have saw what was being said about me… Maybe it saved a lot of heartaches because maybe things would have been worse… I kept the peace while my parents were alive.”
