Since Season 8 of the Real Housewives of New Jersey, Margaret Josephs has been quite the Bravo chameleon. She came onto the scene as the blonde in pigtails, complete with a big attitude and a lot of opinions. Personally, I am a fan. The mother of one is outspoken in that special Garden State style and doesn’t let anyone walk all over her, including Teresa Giudice. Somehow, Marge is effortlessly cool with her own style. I mean, just look at her home. But could it be that some of her co-stars are afraid of her? Maybe we should ask the question, Who’s afraid of Margaret Josephs?
Margaret Josephs is a loose cannon
When it comes to Margaret she definitely is a Real Housewives ninja. Again, this is what makes her great. But I can understand how some of her co-stars might be weary of her. During Season 9, Marge becomes so irritated by Danielle Staub and Marty Caffrey that she literally pushes back. Marty had been picking on the blonde in pigtails looks for months. Not only was it rude, it was pretty annoying. Marge did what any sane woman would do- she pushed him into Jennifer Aydin’s pool to cool him off a bit.
Season 14 is showing how ruthless Margaret can be. She doesn’t take lightly to friends who chose the wrong side in history. Marge’s fallout with Jackie Goldschneider was messy and swift. Jackie, for some very confusing reason, has chosen Teresa’s side, which makes no sense at all. Margaret also noted she was upset that Jackie didn’t give her a preview of her new book. One thing led to another, and the next thing fans knew, Marge was sending screenshots of private conversations.
This move is dangerous and puts everyone on edge. The fact that Margaret became so irate that she decided to drop a grenade after a grenade proves she doesn’t have anything to lose. Always wanting to be on the right side, Margaret outed Jackie to Dolores Catania as a two-faced friend. There is no telling what Marage is capable of. So it makes sense why the cast might be walking on eggshells.
Is Margaret Josephs “Undesirable?”
According to Soggy Siggy Flicker, that answer would be a big old “Yes!” Since she departed from the Garden State franchise, Siggy has had quite the vendetta against Marge. In a recent interview on Behind the Velvet Rope Podcast With David Yontef, Siggy claimed that Marge and Jenn Fessler weren’t even friends before the show. According to the mother of two, “Everybody is afraid of her on the show, and they all pretend they like her, and they all can’t stand the sight of her. I could tell you that. They think she’s disgusting.”
Those are some pretty strong words coming out of Siggy’s camp, but there doesn’t seem to be anyone backing up the sentiments. Siggy doubles down, telling the host, “I am saying to you on my children’s lives, housewives from Jersey and from other housewife franchises, on my children’s life, have called me have spoken to me, and told me she is a discotic to the housewife franchise and we do not open up our mouth because we are scared. Everybody is scared.” Also, it’s Siggy so keep that in mind…
Is Margaret Josephs manageable?
What scares the rest of the Real Housewives of New Jersey cast is that no one can tame Marge. The Macbeth Collection founder is a gossip who, in one way or another, seems to know the dirty secrets of those around her. Again, I appreciate this about Marge because she gets the tea, but I can understand how others might not. A lot of the cast’s drama is already publicly known, but Margaret is more than willing to air the gossip out on the series and use it as a weapon at times. So, the cast wanting to tread water lightly around her makes sense.
I wouldn’t want to mess with Marge. I think she could be the Shereé Whitfield of New Jersey. Her new tagline could be “I’m from New Jersey, where the only thing stronger than my attitude is my bone-collecting.”
Real Housewives of New Jersey can be streamed on Peacock.
