While Jim was among those who showed theirpublic support for Hartafter the actorstepped down as Oscars host, the Bravo alum’s opinions ignited fury amongRHONJfans.
“So true NO STRAIGHT MALE wants his son to be gay. A gay son is a curse that takes away your #family traditions #heritage #lgtbiq is a a parents nightmare that destroys families,” Jim tweeted. “Ruins holidays like #Christmas #KevinHart we support you! #LiberalismIsAMentalDisorder.”
“Thank gd is right,” Cohen, 50,responded Mondayto a fan who was happy the Marcheses were “fired” after one season on the show. “Sick,” Cohen continued. “Pray for his poor kids.”
On Thursday, Jim accused Cohen of capitalizing on women fighting one another on the Bravo franchise.
“Creepy that @andy trolls my account. IT is SICK to refuse to have women viciously attack & abuse each so you can be famous & become wealthy… #elite #liberal #RHONJ #RHONY #RHOD #RHOA” hetweeted.
“Jim and I have been givingReal Housewives or New Jerseya lot of thought and given the current state of affairs regarding our personal lives and the direction of the show, we officially decided to move on,” she said. “The show was not what we expected it to be, and I want to pursue more suitable endeavors.”
She said that the show “did not allow the viewers” to know the real her.
“I was picked on a casting call while pursuing acting, and the person that was presented was created for the show. I had little control over content, situations, or what they decide to show the viewers,” she continued.
Amber also said that her onscreen relationship withRHONJtwins Teresa Aprea and Nicole Napolitano — which at times turned ugly — was fabricated.
“Even my relationship with the twins was created. I recruited them for my storyline after I was chosen,” she said. “I only met withTeresa Guidiceand Dina Manzo for filming purposes. I never built a friendship with them as we were nothing more than co-workers. I wish them all well and the best of luck, although, my husband does not share my sentiments.”
