She’s a gem, I think Melissa is very, very jealous of Teresa and I think that she ponies up like by her because the girl doesn’t have a storyline, she’s boring. She’s pretty and all. I mean I like how she wears clothes and stuff but she’s nothing there that is like, there’s no like there, there,” stated Dodd.

Dodd addressed Gorga and Farahan’s comments during an August 2022 episode of the “Rick and Kelly Show.” The former Bravo star shared that she has spent time with the “Shahs of Sunset” personality.
“I went to BravoCon, we had the best time,” stated the former RHOC star.
She also claimed that she has not spoken “negatively about anybody’s looks.” She clarified she has mentioned that she believes Gorga has undergone facial plastic surgery.
“I’m all for plastic surgery. I mean Rick just got a nose job, I mean I love altering people’s looks. That’s not what we do, right, I wouldn’t talk bad about your looks,” stated Dodd.
She asserted she criticized Gorga for stating that one of her sons had inherited her facial features, as she believes she has undergone procedures to alter her appearance.
“Melissa Gorga goes on her podcast and says that I was terrible and that I talked about her looks, now, I’m doing recaps on this show, you were on a TV show talking about your looks, I’m talking about your looks because you are talking about your looks, so did I say anything awful? Did I say you were fugly? Did I say you used to be fugly? Did I say you’re pretty now? No. I was just showing that you have an altered face and that’s fine. I’m all for plastic surgery,” stated Dodd.
The upcoming thirteenth season of RHONJ is currently in production.
