Production from Real Housewives of New Jersey has no intention of asking Danielle Staub to return to the show despite her ‘eyeing’ a return to Bravo TV.

TMZ.com reported, “Never in a million, trillion years would production bring Danielle back” to RHONJ. “We’re told the team behind ‘RHONJ’ is looking to go forward, not backward … which means new cast members and storylines.”

“Sources say production is searching for a group of friends who are ‘positive’ and ‘loving’ … especially after the tumultuous last few years of the show. We’re told they’re trying to move away from any heavy themes or toxic fighting for the next iteration of RHONJ.”
They continued, “The last couple of seasons found themselves falling apart due to a major division in the cast … and they don’t want that to happen again. Still, we’re told production is months away from making any final casting decisions.”

Danielle wouldn’t return, even if asked … lol:

Danielle told Andy Cohen that she is never returning to RHONJ on Watch What Happens Live in 2020. “I will be never returning as a Housewife again with the Jersey girls.” (Did you hear the collective sigh of relief?!?!)

Danielle elaborated, “I have, over the past 12 years and 10 seasons, been a part of this whole franchise. I’ve been very happy to rally and stand on a platform and be here with all of you. But it is time for me to leave and do something that I want to do that makes my heart happy every day.”

Andy was shooketh. He even said he needed time over the commercial break to process what he heard. “This is entirely your move, I just want to point that out. I didn’t expect you to say the word never.” 

Danielle (who has been engaged 19 times) left the franchise with no friends on the show by the end of season 2. She returned to RHONJ for two seasons as a ‘friend of’ – spoiler alert – it didn’t end well.

Does anyone else have a feeling Danielle started this rumor about herself? Drop your thoughts below.
