John Fuda Hints at RHONJ Exit with Rachel If ‘Toxic Circle’ Continues, Reveals His Breaking Point

On a recent episode of Eddie Judge and Edwin Arroyave’s podcast, The Eds, Rachel Fuda’s husband, John Fuda, opened up about her potential return to The Real Housewives of New Jersey. With the Bravo reality show currently on hold after a highly contentious 14th season, John shared his thoughts on the toxic nature of the series and hinted that there might come a time when he and Rachel decide to step away.

Reflecting on their involvement in the show, John borrowed a phrase from Joe Gorga: “I’m going to use Joe Gorga’s words: ‘When you’re already pregnant, you’re already pregnant, right? So we’re already pregnant for the most part. That’s how he says it,’” he explained during the October 8 podcast. While Rachel and John recently announced they are expecting their third child together (Rachel also helps raise John’s oldest son, Jaiden, 17), John was using the metaphor to convey their commitment to the show.

He further elaborated on their situation: “My thing is, we’re already in the water this deep, right? I’m not saying we wouldn’t get out, and I’m not saying that we would, but we’d have to feel it out and see what the rest of the circle looks like.” This comment alluded to the uncertain dynamics of the upcoming 15th season’s cast. “And if you feel like you’re going to be in another toxic circle, then at some point you got to walk away,” he added.

John, who faced scrutiny during season 14 as details of his past surfaced, emphasized that their decision to continue or leave the show would ultimately depend on its impact on their professional lives. “You’re not gonna do something where it continues to affect you in your career and stuff like that if it’s toxic. Now, if it makes sense and it’s fun and there could be something good that comes out of it, people could have a good time, then yeah, it makes sense to continue,” he concluded.

His candid remarks shed light on the balancing act between reality TV fame and personal well-being, hinting that the Fudas may soon find themselves at a crossroads.
