'Real Housewives of New Jersey': Teresa Giudice Reveals Strange Text Messages From Jacqueline Laurita, Says 'I'm Not Suing Anyone'
The fight between Teresa Giudice and the rest of the cast from "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" is turning into a battle royale.
On "Anderson Live," Anderson Cooper asked Giudice why she had not picked up the phone to reach out to Jacqueline Laurita after she learned her son was diagnosed with autism.
Giudice responded: "It's gone further than that. If I show you the texts she sent to me it's like ... If it keeps going, eventually I am going to go to the cops because I want her to leave me alone. I did nothing to her. When I get texts from her I get chills throughout my body because I am like 'why?' I haven't spoken to her in a year. I never reach out to her."
On Giudice's personal blog, she explained "she got flustered and frustrated on a live TV show" and "never wanted to talk about the texts at all."
When Giudice's "Anderson Live" appearance aired, Laurita took to Twitter and posted a series of texts she sent to Giudice with the question, "Is this threatening?"
On her personal blog, Giudice wrote, "I don't know why but Jacqueline put up a few of her texts between us on Twitter and now they are news stories... I'm sick of this whole thing, physically sick, but I want you to have the entire stry, so here are all of the texts. Draw your own conclusions."
The conversation features a bizarre series of texts from Laurita. Below is the conversation in its entirety.
Laurita: Are you coming over? I'd love that. Honestly.
Laurita: I appreciate the apology. Im glad you finally responded.
Laurita: Fighting aside ....I'm so sorry that you are having to deal with that scene with Joe so publicly. I cant believe they are airing that! I know that must hurt. I won't address it. That was crossing the line. I do have a heart you know. Don't want to be friends/Don't want to be enemies. Just wan peace.
Giudice. After ______ (name blacked out) tried to set me up at the fashion show last year nothing surprises me. Thank you I would love peace.
Laurita: Really? None of us are safe. Take the money and live your life. Who cares what anybody thinks. Nobody lives your day to day but you.
Laurita: We all have struggles of some kind.
Laurita: That's it ... peace out
Laurita: You want peace but yet are STILL calling people to bash me??? When r u going to give it up?
Laurita: This is help for MY CHILD you are interfering with!! SHAME ON YOU!

Laurita: You know what I'm talking about.
Giudice: Truly do not know what u r talking about be specific.
Laurita: I'm fighting for my child while you are living in a fantasy world, trying to take everybody down with you. Just go live your life.
Giudice: Once again u can't be specific about what I asked u, very sorry to hear about you son take care.
Laurita: Not important, just leave me alone. You aren't sorry at all, never cared back then and you certainly don't care right now

Laurita: Kiss all of your girls for me. I love them.
Laurita: Wow! Lol!
Laurita: _______ (name blacked out) isn't going to clear you at the reunion if that's what you're thinking. I talked to her. You are just as guilty and I have recordings to prove it. See you Friday.
Laurita: The lie about what you said Chris [Laurita's husband] said to your husband is disgusting and that will be addresses and proven not to be true. Shame on you!
Laurita: Chris is looking forward to talking with you guys.
Laurita: I just got a multi million dollar deal. I have plenty of money suits defamation suit against you.

Laurita: Gabriella looks a lot like him
Laurita: I have a surprise for you too
Laurita: Only teasing you! Lol! ... it's a JOKE! Get it? I want peace at the reunion, you know that.
Giudice claimed, "She last contacted me last Friday at 1 in the morning, and yes, it does give me the chills, and yes, I wish she would stop."
She also took the time to clear up that she has no intentions of suing Laurita.
Giudice also wrote: "I am NOT trying to keep this going, only end it-- that's why I posted the ENTIRE thing, all texts from her and me since April, so it would just be done. No teasing, no bits, just done. ... I didn't leave anything out. It's a huge one-sided conversation Jac is having with herself and it doesn't make sense to me either. I just wanted to clear up that I'm not suing, I didn't say she was "threatening" me, I want my fans to stay drama-free and fabulous, and that I wish everyone the best. To me that's honest and mature. Sorry if you disagree. Xx"
Meanwhile, her sister-in-law Melissa Gorga has been making the media rounds, including making appearances on the Us Weekly cover and doing an interview on Wendy Williams' show. Teresa had labeled it the "Victim Tour 2012" in her Bravo blog.
While at her niece's birthday party, she claimed Giudice twisted her arm while she was holding her son, baby Joey.
"At the very end she roughed me up a little bit, got in my face, I said not in front of my kid", she said to a shocked Williams. "I had baby Joey in my arm and twisted it."
But Giudice denies this incident ever happened.
"I usually don't comment on stories about me, but I cannot ignore Melissa Marco's vicious lie that I assaulted her at my own children's birthday party while she was holding my baby nephew," Teresa said to the Huffington Post. "It is completely untrue in every way. To make such a horrible accusation that involves our children is beyond despicable and speaks to her true character."
Although she did give the media a statement, she wrote in her personal blog that she is not taking legal action against anyone.
"You know I don't usually comment on rumors about me but when a lie comes right out of a cast member's mouth and involves our children, I cannot sit back. So yes, I did give a statement to AOL about Melissa's "roughing her up" story ... And no, I'm not suing anyone, I'm not about that."
