“Real Housewives of New Jersey” star Jennifer Aydin was removed from a cruise ship gig after her viral Jersey Mike’s Subs meltdown.
Aydin, 47, was set to set sail on a Fans at Sea cruise with her co-stars Teresa Giudice and Dolores Catania in September for the line’s “Wives on the Waves” getaway.
However, after Aydin filmed herself berating employees and customers at a Jersey Mike’s restaurant located inside an airport, a rep for Fans at Sea told Page Six Tuesday that the company “made adjustments” in order to “keep the cruise enjoyable and welcoming for all guests.”
The rep added that their “priority is to create a drama-free, fun-filled experience for everyone.”
However, they insisted the “decision” was neither “personal” nor “an act of canceling anyone,” as they “believe in second chances and personal growth.”
Fans at Sea will “soon be adding a third ‘Housewife’ to the roster” to join Giudice, 52, and Catania, 54, the rep noted.
Aydin did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
Last week, she spoke to her followers in a series of Instagram Story videos about her unsatisfactory experience at the aforementioned Jersey Mike’s.
She explained she was “so mad” after waiting in line “for what felt like forever,” claiming that the woman behind her had ordered after her and got her food first. (It’s worth noting that different sandwiches take different amounts of time to prepare.)
“The 80-year-old that was working there, I mean, the amount of time she took to cut that bread was almost as much as we were waiting [in] that line. Jeez,” the Bravolebrity said with a smirk, pointing out that the older staffer “couldn’t hear” and “everything was slow.”
Aydin admitted to adding another sub to her order while the elderly woman was already making one for her, prompting said staffer to tell her she had to “wait [in] line again.”
The mother of five then asked the man behind her — whom she described as a “freakin’ jerk,” “loser” and “a–hole” — if she could add another item to her order, to which he allegedly responded, “I mean, it’s kind of ridiculous.”
That’s when Aydin, who’s married to a plastic surgeon, “started recording them.”
The man in question, a law professor, informed her he would sue her “for every piece of fake jewelry” she was wearing if she posted what she was filming online.
“My husband’s a medical doctor, OK?” she barked back. “A–hole. And all my s–t is real. I am a f–king celebrity, you a–hole! … A–hole!”
One of the Jersey Mike’s workers who was behind the counter when the rant occurred later took to TikTok to unleash on “stupid bitch” Aydin, urging her to “learn how to order.”
In her own scathing Instagram video, Danielle Cabral described her co-star’s behavior as “despicable” before calling her an “idiot,” a “scum rocket,” an “a–hole,” a “schmuck” and a “POS.”
“A leopard never changes its spots,” Cabral, 39, argued. “At the end of the day, the truth always comes out, and the true colors of certain individuals always come out. … The beauty of this is you sit back and you watch the trash take itself out.”
