'RHONJ' Dina Manzo, Jacqueline Laurita Feud Gets Ugly: Dina Refuses To See Autistic Nephew Nicholas!
The Real Housewives of New Jersey feud between Dina Manzo, her sister Caroline Manzo and her sister-in-law Jacqueline Laurita has gotten even uglier, with Dina saying she wouldn't even go see her autistic nephew Nicholas!
As MStars News reported, Dina has not spoken to Jacqueline for years after she sided with Danielle Staub in Season 1's infamous table flipping dinner. The hostility has now tricked down to their children when Dina was asked by Andy Cohen during the RHONJ reunion if the distance has kept her from her nephew.
"I don't know Nicholas at all," she said. "The work that I do, I see children in hospital beds attached to machines ... and he's progressing. It's a beautiful thing."
Andy then asked the housewife if she would meet him if Jacqueline invited him over. What she says is pretty surprising.
"Probably not," she replied. "There's nothing I could do for Nicholas other than pray for him and love him. I'm not Mother Teresa ... Nicholas doesn't know me."
Dina has remorse for the fact that her daughter Lexi doesn't have a relationship with Jacqueline's husband and Dina's brother Chris Laurita.
"I have to say what hurts me more is my daughter," she said. "That's her godfather and she grew up with [Chris]. I'm more bothered for the kids who understand."
Dina then went on to say she invited her whole family to her Lexi's high school graduation, but no one came. On top of that, she wasn't invited to Caroline's daughter Lauren Manzo's engagement party.

In a recent Twitter post, Jacqueline was asked if Dina reached out to her or Chris in regards to their son.
She simply answered "Nope!"
Do you think Dina should go and meet her nephew Nicholas even though she's not speaking with Jacqueline or her brother?
