Teresa Giudice slammed Margaret Josephs’ appearance — again — during part one of the “Real Housewives of New Jersey” Season 13 reunion Tuesday.
During a heated discussion, Josephs condescendingly called Giudice’s fandom “Tre Stumps” — although they typically go by the name “Tre Huggers” on social media.
The “Turning the Tables” author, 51, perceived the comment to be a dig about her looks and shot back at the fashion designer, “Look at how you look!” with a face of disgust.
Josephs, 56, then clarified, “I’m not calling you a tree stump” and rolled her eyes.
Giudice has criticized her co-star’s figure on multiple occasions on “RHONJ.”
In an episode from Season 12, the “Skinny Italian” cookbook author was upset that Josephs would not wear her line of leggings to a charity softball game.
“If she had my leggings on, her ass wouldn’t jiggle so much,” Giudice said at the time.
Josephs told Page Six months later in an exclusive interview that her fellow “Housewife”‘s remark was “below the belt.”

“I think it’s very inappropriate to say something like that and especially when you’re promoting your athletic line, which is all inclusive,” the “Caviar Dreams, Tuna Fish Budget” author told us in April 2022.
“Not the swiftest move, but am I shocked? No. She hits below the belt.”
Giudice also body-shamed Josephs on a separate occasion during Season 12.
The “Dancing With the Stars” alum said in front of the Macbeth Collection founder’s face, “I didn’t eat dinner last night. I know Margaret did,” adding, “She always eats dinner.”
Josephs has not shared whether Giudice’s comments have affected her self-esteem, but the reality star has taken measures in recent months to lose weight.
The Bravolebrity shared in April that she took medication and dropped 22 pounds.
“I’d be working out, eating healthy, running around all the time and nothing — and everybody knows I don’t even drink alcohol, so that wasn’t it,” she told People at the time.
“I just wasn’t feeling my best self. I was feeling tired and sluggish. I struggled to find energy in the way I had in the past. I was dealing with some brain fog.”
However, Josephs noted that it wasn’t about being “fat or skinny” for her but rather she wanted to get “every aspect of [her] wellness coming together.”
