Real Housewives Jacqueline and Danielle No Longer Friends


Jacqueline Laurita was the only housewife who came to Danielle Staub's defense during the fiery June 16 Real Housewives of New Jersey Finale Showdown. 

Now, Laurita - who famously betrayed her sisters-in-laws  Dina and Caroline Manzo by claiming that Dina uncovered the book about Staub's crime-ridden past - tells the new issue of Us Weekly (on newsstands today) she and Staub no longer speak. (On Tuesday, federal court records surfaced detailing Staub's deep involvement in a kidnapping plot, a $24,000 drug deal and an "escort service" - all of which she denies.)

"I am not friends with Danielle," Laurita emphatically tells Us Weekly.

Adds the mother-of-three (who welcomed a boy, Nicholas, June 11): "She has never seen the baby, nor will I ever show her. I learned my family was right about her all along."
