At the “Right the Relationship” panel atBravoCon2022 on Friday,The Real Housewives of Orange Countyalum, 60, responded to a fan who asked which cast member from the hit Bravo franchise was the most overrated.
Vicki revealed that she especially has struggled to understand Teresa’s popularity amid theReal Housewives of New Jerseystar’s legal issues.
“I mean, she just keeps making more money and more money and more money, and it’s hard for me to understand. I like her, but I don’t get it,” she shared. “I actually did vote for her onDancing with the Stars, because I’m aHousewivessupporter. I like her, I just think she’s overrated. It’s a lot.”

The reality star noted that she didn’t expect to be found complicit. “Joe was telling them, ‘She has nothing to do with it.’ He told me, ‘Damn, they want you more than they want me!’ And he was the one who did it.”
“I was just going through the motions,” Teresa added. “I really thought nothing was going to happen and when I was in court and when the judge said I was going to jail, I was like, ‘What!?’ I said to my lawyer, ‘What did she just say? Am I going to jail?’ And he said, ‘Yeah.’ I was shocked.”

Teresa still has strong emotions about the prison time, which saw her behind bars for nearly a year before hernow-ex-husband, Joe,served 41 monthsand was later deported.
“It was the most devastating thing in my entire life. Just [think of] leaving your four daughters. My heart is just beating just talking about it,” she said.
Teresa and Joe, 50,finalized their divorcein 2020 after 20 years of marriage. Joe now lives in the Bahamas, as the Italian native was deported from America following his fraud sentence.
