Tamra Judge feels certain that Jennifer Aydin will not return to ‘RHONJ’ for reboot: ‘She’s never going to be back’

Tamra Judge feels certain that Jennifer Aydin will not return to “The Real Housewives of New Jersey” when the Bravo hit is eventually rebooted. 

“She’s the only one I don’t like,” the “Real Housewives of Orange County” star tells Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” podcast, emphasizing that she “loves” the rest of the Garden State cast.  

Judge, 56 — who co-hosts the “Housewives”-focused “Two Ts in a Pod” podcast with franchise alum Teddi Mellencamp — can be judicious when sharing her opinions about Bravolebrities. But she doesn’t mind giving her unfiltered thoughts on Aydin, 47, as she anticipates the Paramus resident being axed by the network.

“I say that because I know she’s never going to be back,” she says, predicting that she will never have a reason to interview the “RHONJ” vet. 

Judge’s assertions come shortly after she called Aydin “disgusting” and “obnoxious” on her podcast for bragging about finances and accusing castmate Danielle Cabral of stifling proceeds from her own charity event. 

The Vena CBD founder even said she “despise[d]” Aydin — an opinion that seemingly hasn’t changed. 

“She just rubs me the wrong way for some reason,” she tells “Virtual Reali-Tea.” 

“RHONJ” remains in flux after reaching a dead end underlined by Teresa Giudice’s estranged relationship with brother Joe Gorga and sister-in-law Melissa Gorga. 

Making the group dynamic even more tumultuous is Giudice and husband Luis “Louie” Ruelas’ ongoing contempt for Rachel Fuda and Margaret Josephs, Josephs’ conflict with ex-BFF Jackie Goldschneider, Josephs and Aydin’s never-ending friction, and Aydin and Danielle Cabral’s mutual disdain for each other, among other issues.

Additionally, rumors have swirled that besties Aydin and Giudice planted online attacks against their onscreen adversaries with the help of bloggers — allegations that haven’t been substantiated or debunked. 

Last month, Bravo honcho Andy Cohen confirmed that the show would be getting a refresh amid the bedlam — and even teased that a future cast could feature “all fresh faces,” hinting that a selection of OGs could remain in the mix. 

Judge, for her part, is hopeful that Giudice, 52, Melissa, 45, and Joe, 50, will all be asked to participate in the series’ next chapter — and that an on-camera reconciliation ensues. 

“I hope that the Gorgas and the Giudices — Teresa and her brother — I hope they can reunite just for the family’s sake and for me as a viewer,” she says. “I would love to go to that show and just try to get them together.”

Judge says that she appreciates both Melissa and Giudice, even if her relationship with the latter is “up and down” after publicly sparring — and subsequently making up — in recent years. 

“One day it’s good and one day it’s bad depending on what we say about Louie on the podcast,” she quips. “But I’ve known her and I respect her, Teresa. I really do. I don’t agree with everything [but] I don’t agree with some of the things I do sometimes.”

No matter what happens when “RHONJ” resumes, Judge doesn’t want the unscripted series to be retooled with an entirely new cast like “The Real Housewives of New York City” for 2023’s Season 14. 

“I don’t want the show to end. It’s been on for so long and we’ve gotten to know all these girls and I hate to see it end as we know it. I mean, who knows what’s going to happen? I really don’t know. I’m more curious to know what’s going to happen in the future,” she says. “I need to know now!”

“RHONJ” personality Dolores Catania’s ex-husband, Frank Catania, recently revealed that he heard Giudice was “asked to leave” her post as the only cast member to have appeared on all 14 seasons. 

“I’ve heard the same [speculation] about Teresa being asked to leave, as opposed to being fired,” he said on “The Lisa Alastuey Podcast.”

“But it’s a shame because, you know, I see Teresa landing someplace,” he added. “Because Teresa, across all the franchises, is probably the most recognizable ‘Housewife’ in the world.”

“The Real Housewives of Orange County” airs Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo.
