Dina Manzo Caroline Manzo Feud 2014: 'RHONJ' Star Discusses War With Her Sister

Dina Manzo recently spoke out about her ongoing feud with her sister.

For the last several years, Dina has been estranged from her sister Caroline, and while the details surrounding their feud are unclear, what is clear is that there doesn't appear to be a reconciliation in the works.

The family drama “breaks my heart,” Dina tweeted on Monday evening, according to a July 15 report by Radar Online. “I have always kept my mouth shut.” Then, when a fan tweeted that she had “done a great job at keeping your issues private,” Dina said, “I’m trying! I adore my parents.”

After filming wrapped on the second season of The Real Housewives of New Jersey, Dina walked away from the series, choosing to instead focus on her family and her own show on HGTV, Dina's Party, before returning for season six (which Caroline isn't a part of).

In 2011, Dina addressed her and Caroline's dispute, admitting that feelings "did get hurt," but failing to explain what happened.

“I won’t get into them because I have no desire to rehash the past that can only hurt my parents whom I adore,” she had written in her Bravo blog. “There is no side here, this is a private matter. There are 3 sides to every story, remember…it depends on who you ask.”

Two years later, a source claimed to All Things Real Housewives that Jacqueline Laurita was the reason behind Dina and Caroline's feud, citing her jabs at Dina as the wedge that drove the two sisters apart.

In other Real Housewives of New Jersey news, the sixth season brought in below average ratings for Bravo.

According to a second Radar Online report, the season six premiere captured its "lowest ratings ever in the 18-49 demographic." During the 8 p.m. showing, only 2.14 viewers tuned in, with approximately 1.17 million of those aged 18-49. These numbers are lower than the show's first season, which captured 1.26 million viewers aged 18-49.
