That was me! Chrissy from New York City. Andy Cohen asked “Real Housewives of New Jersey” Danielle Staub my question on-air. Read on to find out how she responded.
If you stayed up late enough last night to see the premiere of the new LIVE Bravo TV show, “Watch What Happens”, you’ll know that Danielle put to rest a lot of rumors and cleared up questions we’ve all had since the reunion.
First, the question to Danielle about the alleged shoving match with “NYC Housewife” Jill Zarin: THAT WAS ME! “Chrissy from New York City said the Daily News is reporting that you and Jill Zarin were involved in a shoving match at a charity event over who got to sit next to the host, Kim Kardashian.” Danielle responded that it could have been perceived that way, but there was no altercation. Staub said she was trying to get through a small, heavily crowded space to have a photograph taken alongside Kardashian and was being led through the crowd by someone from InTouch magazine who might have had to move people aside to get her to the front. No hard feelings.
The biggest lingering question since the reunion show was when matriarch Caroline Manzo ripped into Danielle, and was actually moved to tears, over something she did to sister Dina Manzo. “You know what you did.. I will never forgive [you] and you will never be a friend of mine,” Caroline said between tears after pointing a finger at Danielle and angrily calling her a piece of “garbage” and “disgraceful.”
Caroline refused to provide further details after her sister, Dina, asked her not to. Danielle sat there stone faced, claiming not to have any knowledge about why they were upset. Later, in her blog she wrote: “I had no idea at the time what ‘disgraceful’ acts she was referring to,” said Danielle, who goes on to say that she later figured out what Caroline was so angry about from “someone in her own family. I simply gave a phone number to her ex brother-in-law to contact proper people with questions that he had concerning something that was absolutely none of my business. I think my minimal involvement did not justify Caroline’s behavior towards me,” wrote Danielle. Dina Manzo wrote in her blog: “Yes, it is true that Danielle did something recently, actually two things that were harmful to innocent people that didn’t sign on for the show. Nothing ever became of it, she may have tried to do something, but it held no merit so it went nowhere,” wrote Dina, who went on to say that she forgives Danielle because she admitted she was “broken” at the time and has since learned from her mistakes.”
Last night Staub elaborated on the reason why the Manzo’s are so upset with her and what she did to deserve the tongue lashing she received. Danielle said that she provided Dina’s telephone number to the brother of her best friend, who happens to be Dina’s ex-husband. Danielle said her friend had asked for the number so her brother could get in touch with Dina regarding contracts for the show, but looking back realizes it was an error in judgement on her part that she should have never done. She claims she meant no harm, and if asked again would not have given out the number, but at the time didn’t see any fault in it. She didn’t elaborate on Dina’s relationship with her ex-husband.
So there you have it. Danielle went on to say she is writing a book and has representation in hopes that she can pursue an acting career.
