#RHONJ Star Margaret Josephs Denies Being Thirsty For Reality Relevance!

Margaret Josephs made a colorful splash on The Real Housewives of New Jersey, quickly bonding with Bravo veterans, Teresa Giudice and Melissa Gorga.

A brand launch party went down during the last episode, and the rookie dishes about the shindig rewind in her blog.

Margaret denies being thirsty for reality relevance — speaking directly to her frenemy and co-star, Siggy Flicker.

“I had such a good time with them and was wanting more. That’s not me being a wannabe, that’s just me being me. (Oh, and Siggy: I don’t need to go out of my way to be nice to anyone, it comes naturally — as natural as my boobs, thank you very much!)”

Margaret claims that she’s all about love — even if the feeling isn’t mutual.

“I have a whole lotta love to give and there’s enough to go around. Even for Siggy, despite her name-calling and wanting to pull my pigtails out…LOL! And for Dolores: I don’t need to call out anyone’s bad behavior to turn people against Siggy — she’s got quite the talent for doing that on her own.”

Margaret reminds her readers that Siggy blocked her on social media after the Boca trip fiasco — and clarifies details about the beach memorial, designed to honor Teresa’s mother.

Siggy had blocked me on social media after accusing me of basically breaking into her “private beach club” and keeping her out of everything we did. I mean..I guess that’s where it went south, LOL.”

“Let’s clear some things up: it’s a hotel. A public one. A Waldorf Astoria resort. Anyone can walk in and do what they want. I’ve had lunch there numerous times, though I don’t stay there, because I stay at a club in Palm Beach, but anyway… I saw flowers in the hotel lobby while we were walking through to a yoga session Danielle and Teresa had planned, and I told the concierge I wanted to do something special for all of us. I explained what I wanted, and he called the florist and BAM — simple as that.”

Margaret writes that she was ready to move on from the Florida drama and that her party invite to Siggy was sincere. She shares her thoughts about Siggy’s reaction, and how she sees the ongoing problem. 

“It would seem I’m being painted as the “mean girl” here, but I invited Siggy to my party in a genuine place of moving on.” 

“I didn’t expect an adult, much less an expert on relationships, to conduct herself that way with a new relationship. Lots of assumptions, accusations, and attacks, but I guess that means I’m “toxic” by being truthful. Personally, I find it easy to move on, because I don’t take anything or anyone seriously — especially if they take themselves so seriously. Then it’s hard to see them as anything but weak and ridiculous.”

Margaret gives Teresa a shout-out, delivering kudos for her snarky comment about the woman everyone was talking about. 

Teresa said it best: Soggy Siggy, Psycho Siggy… all the Siggys showed up to this revue — even Sicko Siggy reared her head for one quick bit! Thank you,Teresa, for once again stating that we were ALL awaiting a call that day.”

Margaret weighs in on Siggy and Dolores’ mock “pigtail party” — brushing off the elaborate diss.

“Now I could’ve taken the “Pigtail Party” to heart, but that would suggest it actually mattered. Siggy “respectfully” declined my invite and then went out of her way to be disrespectfully ridiculous. To be honest, I found it endearing, and it read as more of an “Homage to the Marge” than anything else.”

Margaret spills her thoughts about her launch party, and Siggy and Dolores’ no-show.

“It was a fabulous night, full of fun people, friends new and old, and I still wish Siggy and Dolores had shown up. Had she come, I would’ve welcome Siggy as a guest of honor, thanked her for introducing me to the ladies, and crossed over the bridge of tears with her. That’s how you host a party, babe: no saltiness in sight.”

Margaret gives her take on friendships, and dishes about her sit-down with Siggy.

“Nevermind that she belittled me, insulted me, and used me as a pin cushion so she wouldn’t attack the friends she needs more. To me, friendship is not a competition. There is a place for everyone in a circle of friends. This isn’t Survivor. I, for one, am secure and don’t feel threatened by anyone.”

“I struggled to understand the depth of her feelings and the nature of why she’s so threatened and territorial, but then I saw it was nothing more than insecurity and overcompensation for fears of inferiority.”

“That’s where that comment came from: the “trying to destroy you” comment. It’s very telling. Either she REALLY has a thing against pigtails or a thing against powerhouses. That’s not talent, that’s ego. That’s not empowerment, that’s malice. That’s not sanity, that’s delusion.”

Margaret concludes her blog by assuring readers that she was bothered by Siggy’s tears, and that her apology was sincere.

“My intention is not to hurt anyone’s feelings or upset them — I just want to lighten the mood and liven up the place. “Tongue in cheek,” to use her phrase. My apology was completely genuine and from the heart, and let’s just take note: There was one apology in the diner that day, and it didn’t come from Siggy. Like I said: I don’t hold grudges, I hold standards.”

Do you think that Siggy and Margaret will get on the same page, and make it work?
