Teresa Guidice’s Namaste B$tches podcast ended abruptly in April, leaving fans completely in the dark about the status of the show.
Bravo bloggers have been speculating for months that Teresa had a falling out with her co-host, Melissa Pfeister, and the rumors only intensified after the couple unfollowed each other on Instagram.
Teresa, 52, all but confirmed that Namaste B$tches was kaput last week when she launched her own solo podcast, Turning The Tables, while Melissa, 42, also has her own podcast called Side Piece.
Now Melissa has spoken to DailyMail.com about the end of Namaste B$tches and how she was moving on without Teresa.
“Regarding the podcast, people have made up some pretty terrible lies about it and me,” he said.
Teresa Guidice’s Namaste B$tches podcast co-host Melissa Pfeister (both pictured) spoke out following the end of her podcast and the end of their friendship.
The couple previously hosted Namaste B$tches, which was one of the most successful Real Housewives-related podcasts.
‘The truth is, I spent over two years of my life, with two kids under six, having another podcast (Side Piece) and being a nutritionist with my own business, creating and building Namaste B$tches,’ she continued.
“I worked on it 24/7 and after all that, there’s no way I’d ever do anything that would ruin it or haunt anyone.” That’s not who I am or how I move. You can ask any of the 150+ people I’ve interviewed and have an incredible relationship with.
“On top of all that, I’m pregnant and the pregnancy has been very difficult, so with all that, it was time to take a break from Namaste.”
Melissa added cryptically, “I could say a lot more about the other reasons I walked away, but again, that’s not who I am or what I do.”
DailyMail.com has contacted Teresa and Hurrdat Media, the production company behind Namaste B$tches, for comment.
Both Melissa and Teresa have refused to publicly share details about their rumored fight, but several fans and Bravo bloggers have pointed out that the couple no longer follows each other on social media.
“I’ve been waiting for this breakup to happen. Sorry, not surprised at all,” one fan commented.
Another wrote: ‘Listened to two episodes. I’m surprised it lasted so long – it was horrible!’
“I’m pregnant and the pregnancy has been very difficult, so with all that, it was time to take a break from Namaste,” she told DailyMail.com.
Teresa was known for using Namaste B$tches products on episodes of The Real Housewives of New Jersey.
Last December, Melissa tragically revealed that she had suffered her third miscarriage while attending Bravocon with Teresa last November.
In a social media post at the time, Melissa wrote: “I kept the smile on my face. It was also extremely difficult as most had their spouse or partner, friends or family… I was there alone.’
He added: “Going through this and not being able to talk to anyone about it, well, once I got home I still didn’t talk about it or try to think about it.”
“But then I realized I’d be lying to everyone on podcasts if I wasn’t open and honest, which is the whole point of making Side Piece & Namaste B$tches in the first place.”
Namaste B$tches was one of the most successful Real Housewives-related podcasts to emerge in recent years.
It spawned a line of products, which Teresa regularly wore on The Real Housewives of New Jersey, and a live show.
Teresa’s rumored fight with Melissa is just the latest in a long line of fractured relationships the reality star has left in her wake.
Italian author Flaca is currently feuding with half of the current RHONJ cast, including Rachel Fuda, Margaret Josephs, and her sister-in-law, Melissa Gorga.
He’s also at odds with Danielle Cabral, who accused Teresa and Jennifer Aydin of ‘setting her up’ to reveal a damaging rumor on camera last season.
The casting drama comes amid speculation that The Real Housewives of New Jersey could be coming to an end soon.
While the hit Bravo reality show has never been short of drama, this latest season has proven more turbulent than ever, reaching a surprising point earlier this month when host and executive producer Andy Cohen confirmed that the upcoming reunion had been scrapped by first time. moment in the program’s history.
Last December, Melissa tragically revealed that she had suffered her third miscarriage while attending Bravocon with Teresa last November (pictured with Jennifer Aydin).
Teresa has now launched her own solo podcast called Turning The Tables
The announcement comes after Teresa and Melissa Gorga refused to speak while filming the current season, a dynamic Cohen has called “unsustainable.”
Viewers will get the chance to see the feuding sisters-in-law onscreen one last time in this season’s final episode, which Dolores Catania described as so chaotic that it ended “many relationships” on the show.
“It’s definitely closure for people, and you can’t go back from the things you’re going to see in the finale. There’s no going back,” she told Us Weekly.
Meanwhile, Andy described it as ‘The Last Supper’, potentially a dark prediction of what could happen for today’s stars.
“I think the main thing is that this will all make sense once you see the ending. It’s one of those classic Jersey endings that people will talk about for a long time,” he revealed on Radio Andy’s Reality Checked.
