After the 53-year-old Real Housewives of New Jersey star told Jeff Lewis, 55, on his SiriusXM radio show, Jeff Lewis Live, that she was open to making amends, sparking claims of being \u201cdesperate\u201d to save her gig on the Bravo reality show, Teresa set the record straight, explaining her change of heart, denying that she would make up with Joe, 50, and Melissa, 46, to secure her season 15 return, and addressing Melissa\u2019s recent comments about the matter.\u201cBefore, I was very adamant, and I was just like, \u2018Absolutely not.\u2019 And I know everyone is saying now, \u2018Oh my gosh, she\u2019s desperate because she needs her job,\u2019 [but] that\u2019s not the case,\u201d Teresa insisted on the September 19 episode of Turning the Tables By Teresa Giudice. \u201cThere\u2019s reasons why I\u2019m saying it. It\u2019s like an olive branch. Now I\u2019m just saying, \u2018Never say never.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Teresa, her age and desire to be a good example for her daughters and fans led her to reconsider her stance on making amends with Joe and Melissa.\u201cThe older I\u2019m getting \u2026 there are things that have happened that I don\u2019t want to get into right now, but maybe eventually I will, we\u2019ll see, but that have changed my mind,\u201d she explained. \u201cI just want to be a good example to my children, and also, a lot of people do look up to me out there, and I want to be a good example to everyone out there.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPeople do change and things happen in life that make you evolve and grow, and that\u2019s all I\u2019m saying,\u201d she added.Teresa then reacted to Melissa telling Page Six\u2019s Virtual Reali-Tea that \u201cthe door has been closed\u201d when it comes to reconciling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI see what she\u2019s saying, which is fine. I\u2019m just saying my door is cracked open. I just said, \u2018Never say never,\u2019\u201d she shared. \u201cI\u2019m a mom first, so I always want to do the right thing and be a good example for my children.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAnother big thing [is] time heals all wounds \u2026 You forget things, you\u2019re not as angry as when you first were, and if you\u2019re happy in their life, that\u2019s what I want to exude \u2026 I don\u2019t want to be angry,\u201d she added.While Melissa doesn\u2019t seem open to the idea, Teresa said that she would like to \u201clet the past go and move forward\u201d as she again denied being \u201cdesperate\u201d to save her job amid rumors that she was left out of test filming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019m not desperate \u2026 if Bravo doesn\u2019t want me back, I\u2019m fine with it. If they want me back, I\u2019m fine with both,\u201d she declared.Teresa went on to acknowledge that her timing was \u201ccrazy\u201d before denying that her co-stars had started filming without her.\u201cThere was stuff put out there that they\u2019re filming, but they\u2019re not,\u201d she alleged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
