Melissa Pfeister BLASTS Lies About Rumors Amid Falling Out with Teresa Giudice and Podcast Abruptly Ending!
Teresa Giudice’s popular podcast “Namaste B$tches” came to an unexpected end in April, leaving fans in the dark about the podcast’s future.
Speculation has been rampant among fans that Teresa had a falling out with her co-host, Melissa Pfeister, especially after the two unfollowed each other on Instagram.
Teresa, 52, seemingly confirmed the end of “Namaste B$tches” last week when she launched her solo podcast, “Turning The Tables.” Meanwhile, Melissa, 42, has started her own podcast called “Side Piece.”
Melissa recently spoke to DailyMail.com about the end of “Namaste B$tches” and her plans moving forward without Teresa.
“Regarding the podcast, people have made up some pretty terrible lies about it and me,” she said.
“The truth is I spent over two years of my life, with two kids under six, having another podcast [Side Piece] and being a nutritionist with my own business, creating and building ‘Namaste B$tches.'” She stated.
She continued, “I worked on it 24/7 and after all that, there is no way I would ever do anything to ruin it or go after someone. That’s not who I am or how I roll. You can ask any of the 150-plus people I’ve interviewed and have an amazing relationship with.”
Melissa, who is pregnant and experiencing a difficult pregnancy, added, “On top of all that, it was time for a break from ‘Namaste.’ I could say a lot more of the other reasons I stepped away, but again, that’s not who I am or what I do.”
Both Teresa and Melissa have declined to publicly discuss their rumored falling out, but fans have noted their social media split.
“Who’s shocked this happened? I’m not,” one fan commented, while another wrote, “I never liked these two together.”
Last December, Melissa revealed on social media that she suffered her third miscarriage while attending Bravocon with Teresa in November. “I kept the smile on my face. It was extremely hard too as most had their spouse or significant other, friends or family… I was there by myself,” she wrote.
“To go through this and not being able to talk with anyone about it, well, once getting home I just continued not talking about it or trying to think about it. But then realized I would be lying to everyone on the podcasts by not being open and honest, which is the whole point of doing ‘Side Piece‘ & ‘Namaste B$tches‘ in the first place.”
“Namaste B$tches” had been one of the more successful Real Housewives-related podcasts, spawning a merchandise line and a live show, with Teresa frequently wearing the merchandise on RHONJ.
