Dina Manzo Bails on 'Housewives of New Jersey'

Dina Manzo Leaving 'Real Housewives of New Jersey'?

One 'Housewife' is fed up with the reality TV scene and is looking to leave her hit show. Dina Manzo of 'The Real Housewives of New Jersey' hinted that she may bow out of the Bravo show after Monday night's episode. "Believe it or not, I'm a private person, so this experience is really hard for me," Manzo told Hollywood Life. "They [her fellow 'Housewives'] all love it a little bit more than I do."

Of course, the show's rep stayed tight-lipped, despite Bravo's teaser for the upcoming episode, which says that one 'Housewife' leaves "forever."

"While there is a lot of speculation about who, if anyone, is leaving the cast, viewers will have to tune in Monday night to find out the truth," the show's rep told The NY Post.

Last month the "private" Housewife detailed her breast reduction in Life & Style, sharing her decision to go from an 32DD to a more modest 32C cup.

Manzo's husband may be part of the reason she's jumping ship. He has allegedly refused to appear on the show and has been disappointed by the public perception of their lives. Apparently, he is still furious about the way he and Dina were portrayed on VH1's 'My Big Fat Fabulous Wedding,' which documented their lavish, $1 million wedding a few years ago. In the episode, Tommy admits to cheating on Dina before the marriage. "I was not a good boy," he says.

Even if Manzo is out, the other 'Housewives' -- Caroline Manzo, Jacqueline Laurita, Teresa Guidice and Danielle Staub -- are all on board for another table-flipping season of the Bravo reality hit.

Danielle should leave and Dina should stay. The episode where Danielle was driving around with her kids all upset about the sheriff's dinner at Caroline's was very disturbing. The kids seem petrified and Danielle seemed irrational. I hope it was all just editing, but nonetheless it was disturbing and unpleasant tv--and I watch all of the housewives shows.

By JoJo

I agree. That was the first episode of the NJ wives show that I had ever watched, and I thought it was really creepy how Danielle kept saying that she wasn't interested, but wanted to "stop by". Good thing for her that her girls have more sense than she does.

Also, her oldest daughter should look into getting emancipated, from Danielle or find a relative that is willing to be a custodian because I can see how her very promising modeling career will be ruined if Danielle is around. Especially since she likes to drag ex cons around with her.

If Danielle leaves who will all the other housewives talk about? (Sarcasm))

That dinner was a fundraiser, I don't think she even had a grand to get in.

they can't get rid of danielle. she makes the show interesting. without her it would be pretty boring. who would they hate. who gets under their skin more than her. rock on danielle....the crazier the better. oh and by the way, i thought she should have crashed that party that night. it would have great tv. pretty boring just watching her drive her car. a party crash and a nice cat fight would have been great. mmmmeeeoooowww!

By Majorla

How boring would be with out Danielle...to be honest with you all, Danielle is the only one that is getting more airtime than the other housewives.

By adrienneb

i like dina get rid of danielle she is toxic her ex should take the kids away before she ruins their lives

By james

I think Dina's leaving to save face cause her marriage is in major trouble.

By Diana

Its been a long time, since I have seen any woman as desperate as this one. Wearing jewlery is beautiful, unless a woman wears too much. It looks like this one walked into Walmart and bought out all the costume jewlery. Is not pretty at all, it only looks cheap, and is a desperate try for attention.
Bless her heart.

PLEASE TAKE THE WHOLE SHOW WITH YOU DINA THEY ALL NEED MAJOR HELP

By Pattie Bertoglio

First LC leaves the Hills, now Dina, what or who next, Snookie? Ha!

By mille

Bye, bye, who cares. I am so tired of Caroline, Dina, Jacqueline and the table flipper. Caroline is so involved with Danielle emotionally it is to tiring to watch. When the NJ Housewives first televised I loved Caroline and Dina was such a cutie pie and Jacqueline and the table flipper was lovely ladies. But they have been on the war path to defame Danielle it makes me puke; therefore, i do not watch this show at all. Enough already! As far as I am concerned Danielle needs her own show and leave these four out.

By Carlin

I totally agree! The Manzo family is obsessed with Danielle, no wonder Danielle is so paranoid. I LOVE the fact that she clearly has raised her girls to be lovely young women while the 'family' clearly cannot say the same for theirs. How dare Caroline say Danielle couldn't get to them [adults] so she was going after the kids. Hello!!! Ashley is no kid and she deserved to be charged. Danielle did not force her to send those threatening text messages. Just proves that that family believes they are above reproach. As far as I am concerned, there would be no show without Danielle. I am not a fan of hers, but she sure does keep things riled up. LOL

By jfk

Mille, are you insane...Danielle with her own show!!

By addie

PLEASE take the whole show and flush it! ALL of those "housewife" shows should go away! They are not "housewives"!! They are skanks and disgusting!

By MARYANN

BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FLUSH THEM ALL N.J. N.Y. ETC. ITS SO SAD... SHAME ON US FOR WATCHING THE TRAIN WRECK !!

By RK

The only reason people from Jersey (otherwise know as Douschebags) are even on TV, is so the rest of the country can feel better about their own lives. New Jersey should be a naval bomb testing site.

By Di

Just curious - where are you from? Who gives you the right to speak that way about NJ. Im waiting tohear what trailer trash park you live in or better yet...what WalMart you shop for clothing at!

Mayhaps YOU should leave? Anyone who thinks ANY of these "people" represent the real people of NJ needs their head examined!
