Jenn Fessler, star of The Real Housewives of New Jersey, is keeping quiet about rumors of a season 14 reunion. However, she does acknowledge that a new era seems to be on the horizon.
"I don't have insider information on what goes on at Bravo or the inner workings of the Bravo team. But like any other viewer, I can see that changes are happening," Jenn shared exclusively with We. "I'm aware that things in Jersey are evolving and shifting. The specifics of it, the timing, the reasons? I'm not sure."
Jenn mentioned that everyone is excited about the endless possibilities, finding humor in how it has almost become a hobby. She believes that anything can happen now.
She expressed her concern that the group cannot continue with the constant arguments. Jenn feels that it is not sustainable in this manner. She misses the fun and lightheartedness of the previous season, where she enjoyed being silly and carefree. She hopes that the current season will bring back some of that joyful energy.
Filming the season 14 finale made her feel like it was truly the end. She mentioned, "Let's hope so." She expressed, "I mean, final in a way that the finale's over, I would never want to relive that again."
On Monday, June 3, several sources confirmed to Us that the RHONJ season 14 will not have a traditional reunion.

An insider revealed that the reunion was meant for resolving issues, but it seems like there will be no resolution between the women. They mentioned that there won't be a neat conclusion to the conflicts.
According to Dolores Catania, a fellow star of RHONJ, the season 14 finale will mark the end of many relationships. She teased this information exclusively to Us last month. The season started with a bang, showing a heated argument at Rails Steakhouse with insults being hurled around.
Dolores expressed that the finale of RHONJ season 13 provided closure for many viewers. She emphasized that the events shown in the finale were intense and irreversible. Dolores acknowledged her efforts to prevent reaching the current state of affairs but ultimately recognized the need to move on from the situation.
Following the airing of the RHONJ season 13 reunion last year, the cast found themselves divided. Some members showed their allegiance to Teresa Giudice while others supported Melissa Gorga. Dolores revealed to Us that any lingering doubts about the possibility of reconciliation among the women were dispelled after the intense confrontation during the Rails fight.
Teresa and Melissa have been feuding for a long time, and things have reached a breaking point, especially as season 14 progresses. The sisters-in-law are refusing to film together.
During the season 14 premiere on May 5, Melissa shared in her confessional that she doesn't want to talk about Teresa this year. Jenn has found herself caught in the middle of the Giudice-Gorga feud as she tries to show her loyalty to Teresa.
During the May 12 episode of RHONJ, Jenn mentioned that Teresa is a good person. She explained how Teresa's unpredictable nature keeps everyone intrigued. Despite this, Jenn admitted that she enjoys Teresa's company, even if it may seem disloyal.
As season 14 of RHONJ continues, it remains uncertain where the other women stand in their relationships with Teresa. One thing is for sure though - drama always seems to find its way to New Jersey.
The Real Housewives of New Jersey season 14 airs new episodes on Bravo Sundays at 8 p.m. ET.
