JENNIFER Aydin confirmed rumors husband Bill Aydin had a lengthy affair with a coworker during the season premiere of The Real Housewives of New Jersey.
Jennifer and Bill were added to the cast of the Bravo reality show back in 2018.
The latest season of RHONJ kicked off with major drama in the Garden State.
While it appeared that the episode would focus on Teresa Giudice, her love life, and her relationship with brother Joe Gorga, it was Jennifer who stole the show in the final moments.
Months earlier, Bravo released a trailer teasing trouble for Jennifer and her plastic surgeon husband. It was unclear at the time what their problems may be, but fans need not wonder any longer.
During the premiere, the RHONJ cast gathered for a pool party at Teresa’s home.
The party kicked off with whispers about her fiancé Luis Ruelas and quickly shifted as Jennifer attempted to clear the air with Jackie Goldschneider and Margaret Josephs.
Rather than make amends, Margaret dropped a major bombshell, accusing Jennifer of being dishonest: “You always say, ‘Bill’s the best.’ Listen, he had an affair, everyone knows and that’s why he left his old job.”
Turning to Teresa, who attempted to intervene, Margaret said: “Her marriage isn’t as perfect as she says it is.
“Bill had the affair with the office manager for two years.”
Jennifer interjected: “She’s not an office manager, she was a pharmaceutical rep, you f**k .
“If you could get the facts straight.”
HAUNTING RUMORS
Rumors have been swirling about Jennifer and Bill’s marriage for some time.
In August, gossip site DeuxMoi shared a blind item alleging that Margaret would expose a major secret about Jennifer, widening the existing rift between them.
The post, which was shared in August 2021, read: “A certain Jersey housewife who became famous for wearing pigtails but now mostly wears wigs and fake extensions, got doused with a glass of rosé over the weekend when she took things too far with another wife [whom] she is trying to ice out of the group.
“She’s more upset, though, that her friend who she brought onto the show is siding against her and didn’t have her back when she got soaked.”
Another DeuxMoi blind read:
It read: “I got some tea to spill straight out of New Jersey.
“This [housewives’s] husband from NJ had an affair 10 years ago (not Jackie) and Marge found out and told everyone at [Teresa’s] party.
“Wife is super p****d because only they knew about it and had already worked past their issues, and now she has to tell her kids abut it.”
Additionally, cast bios for the upcoming season teased of Margaret: “After revealing an Aydin family secret, Margaret deals with the guilt that comes along with causing pain to Jennifer.”
The bio suggests that their relationship may recover at some point this season.
DeuxMoi shared another blind item that alleged Bill’s infidelity didn’t end with the incident in question, though that has not been confirmed at this time.
MARGE SAYS
While her bio suggests surfacing this rumor will cause Margaret guilt at some point this season, it’s not the first time the fashion designer as drudge this claim up.
In 2019, Margaret suggested Bill was cheating on Jennifer during another heated exchange.
The pair were arguing when Jennifer said she preferred to keep people’s personal lives off the table.
Margaret quipped back: “You’re right. You’re absolutely right.
“That’s why your husband sleeps in the f**king pool house.”
Jennifer denied it at the time, saying: “My husband doesn’t sleep in the pool house, honey.
“I’m secure in my marriage so it doesn’t bother me where the f**k he sleeps.”
Margaret snapped back: “Whether it’s in his girlfriend’s bed or not.”
Bill and Jennifer have been married for 20 years after first getting hitched in 2001.
Together, they have five children; Justin, 18, Gabby, 15, Jacob, 13, Christian, 11, and Olivia, 9.
