AceShowbiz - Danielle Staub doesn't really have a good memory with her fomer "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" co-star Teresa Giudice. In a new tell-all "Not All Diamonds and Rose: The Inside Story of the Real Housewives From the People Who Lived It", Danielle claimed that Teresa once stabbed her with a fork during a fight in season 2 of the show.
Danielle shared that the big fight occured in 2010 when they were attending a fashion show for Kim DePaola's boutique Posche. The tension arose after Danielle called Jacqueline Laurita's daughter Ashley a name, which prompted Teresa confronted her. During the fight, Teresa allegedly called her a "b***h" and Danielle clapped back at Teresa by dissing her about her finances.
Things got physical as Danielle claimed that "Teresa took a fork to my back!" In an interview with author Dave Quinn, Daielle said, "I had a fork stabbed and dragged down my back! So I stopped running. One of the security guys was holding onto my arm. I remember saying, 'Let go of me. You're holding me back.' This was like Jerry Springer on steroids. Like, these women were dangerous."
"It came as a shock to me that I was allowed to be treated this way," Danielle added.
Meanwhile, executive producer Andy Cohen said in the book, "We don't like it when it gets physical. We tend to cut away from it. We'll show that something happens, but we kind of do flashes on the screen. It was not in keeping with what we want the Housewives to be."
Teresa's representatives have yet to comment on the claims.
Back in 2010, Danielle pressed charges against Ashley for the hair pulling. After the teen was found guilty, she was ordered to pay a fine of $189. Danielle also filed complaints against Teresa, but she later dropped the complaints.
