Real Housewives of New Jersey star Dina Manzo had a meltdown when Jacqueline Laurita's daughter Ashlee Holmes was at the reunion taping. 

RHONJ fans know Dina has had a feud with her sister Caroline Manzo and her sister-in-law Jacqueline for years. They not only haven't spoken, but Dina refused to be a part of the show again if Jacqueline was asked back. Basically, Dina got Jacqueline fired!

Well, when Dina saw Ashlee doing co-stars Kathy Wakile and Rosie Pierri's makeup for the show, she was not happy at all.

"Dina flipped out," a source told Radar Online. "As soon as she saw Ashlee, Dina threw a little tantrum and asked to have her removed."

Apparently, Bravo listened to Dina's demand since "production removed Ashlee from the main floor and into a separate room to work on the makeup."

That didn't stop Dina from going off on Jacqueline, even though she wasn't there.

"Dina was ranting and raving that she will never film a show with Jacqueline ever," the source said. "I suppose she thought Jacqueline was going to show up to the reunion since Ashlee was there, but Jacqueline wasn't because she was set to be a keynote speaker at an autism conference for the Talk About Curing Autism Foundation in California that day."

When the reunion ended, Dina's anger toward Jacqueline and Ashlee spilled out to twitter.

"When the day wrapped, one would think the feud was done, but it wasn't," the source told Radar. "Dina and her daughter Lexi continued to make passive aggressive tweets in an attempt to strike at the Laurita family on social media and behind the scenes."

As MStars News reported, the tweets between Dina's side and Jacqueline's side went back and forth with the kids getting involved.

"I just think it's hysterical how someone who claims to be so 'zen' can't just let another adult do her job," Ashlee tweeted, referring to the reunion incident.

Of course Dina's daughter Lexi fired back, "@ashleeholmes your hatefulness has only helped my mom & I work on our patience & ability to recognize the light in everyone, especially you."

Whose side are you on: Dina or Jacqueline?
