NEW JERSEY: The ongoing conflict between Teresa Guidice and Melissa Gorga has reportedly "put on pause" Bravo's reality hit 'The Housewives of New Jersey'. According to many individuals who spoke to Page Six, Teresa and her sister-in-law Melissa are "legitimately estranged" and this is what is said to be causing the halt.
Page Six previously revealed that the Season 13 reunion, which took place this month, was unusually explosive. Teresa's behavior at the Andy Cohen-moderated sit-down was described by many sources as "completely unhinged" and "out of control". Witnesses reported she was "nastier than ever" during the filming and used excessive profanity. The show's future now hangs up in the air, according to the most recent reports.

'RHONJ' filming on pause
The drama on the set of 'RHONJ' has reached an all-time high, with a nasty conflict between two stars putting the entire show "on pause". According to production sources, Teresa and her sister-in-law Melissa are presently immersed in a serious and intense estrangement, which has prompted the filming of the famous reality TV series to come to an abrupt halt.
Bravo officials are apparently at a loss for how to continue under the current conditions, causing contract discussions to be postponed. As a consequence, no cast members have been offered new contracts for the upcoming season nor has anyone been dismissed. The network is in a bind as a result of the show's uncertainty, and the production timeframe for Season 14 is still unknown.
Will there be 'RHONJ' Season 14?
Originally, filming was set to continue in June, following Teresa's wedding special with fiance Luis "Louie" Ruelas and the forthcoming Season 13 reunion. The showrunners, however, recently notified the actors that production would not proceed as planned.
Many of the cast members are finding consolation in summer vacations after learning of the sudden pause as they deal with internal strife. While some are concerned about the show's financial ramifications, others are secretly pleased to get a respite from the nonstop drama.
According to insiders, the most recent news given to the actors was that production may not even begin until 2024. This news has sent shockwaves through the Garden State divas, who are split on how they feel about the show's uncertain future.
According to an unknown production source, "No official decisions regarding Season 14 have been made yet, as the finale, Teresa and Louie's wedding special, and the reunion episodes have yet to air." Bravo appears to be carefully examining the issue before deciding the fate of the program.
'The Real Housewives of New Jersey' Season 13 airs Tuesdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
