She blamed their time on RHONJ for fracturing their relationship. "People become [caricatures] of themselves. A little part of what people say that they liked, they tend to put it on," she said, explaining how reality tv changes people.

Dina appeared in season one and part of season two. She said she only came back because she was contractually obligated. When she came back in season six, their sisterly bond had already been squandered.

“I think we all changed but there was a point when I left — because I really quit after season 1, but part of my deal was I had to film some of season 2,” she said. “It was when I didn’t recognize who she was any more that I said, ‘I’m out.’ ”

She also hated that her sister said mean things about her. “After I watched season 1 ... I was saying very nice things about them and watching back, they weren’t doing the same for me. So I was like, ‘What the f—?’ Is there envy going on here. They don’t want me to look good?’ I don’t know, but it freaked me out.” She is still close to her brother Chris, who's married to fellow RHONJ alum Jacqueline Laurita.
