In a preview clip of the March 1 episode of "The Real Housewives of New Jersey," Melissa Gorga and Jennifer Aydin go from screaming to scrimmaging in a hot minute. It all kicks off after Margaret Josephs and Melissa face-off with Jennifer over claims she made during Season 11's reunion trainwreck when Jennifer had insinuated Margaret — not Teresa — started rumors that Evan Goldchneider was cheating on his wife, Jackie. "You instigate, I retaliate," Jennifer told Margaret, per Heavy. "I'm trying to tell you, that she is the cause of the rumor," Jennifer insisted to Andy Cohen.
Clearly, Margaret has been stewing on the allegation ever since. "Why do you want to hurt someone else?" she quizzed Jennifer. Teresa immediately jumps into the fray to protect her BFF. "Don't defend her!" Margaret screamed. There may not be any table-flipping, but it still gets plenty heated, especially after Melissa accuses Teresa of hypocrisy. "Let this girl dig her own hole. You ask for loyalty, you give loyalty back!" she demanded. "If she asks a question about Evan, she's not digging? If someone asks about [your fiancé], they're digging?" The screaming escalates until Melissa and Jennifer are ready to rumble.
"I think [Jennifer] was holding, saving face for a while," Melissa told E! News about the fight. "I think the house is starting to — you know, the windows are getting cleaned, and we can see inside a little bit. And I think she's stressed and panicking and acting up and you know, just losing it."
