RHONJ fans spot ‘proof’ of which stars are returning to season 13 after photos leak from filming
BRAVO fans have found what they believe to be proof of the finalized cast of season 13 as they were spotted filming their first group scene.
The Real Housewives of New Jersey cast previously dropped clues as to who might be cut after the explosive season 12 reunion.
Included in the photos from the rink were Teresa Giudice and her fiancé Luis Ruelas, Traci Johnson, and her husband Tiki Barber, and Jennifer Aydin, who sported an injury boot alongside her neon heels.
Jackie Goldschneider was also spotted along with Margaret Josephs, and Frank Catania made an appearance with his girlfriend Brittany.

Dolores Catania was present, and long-timers Melissa and Joe Gorga could be seen chatting along with the rest of the group.
FRANK'S INSIGHT
But the group shots came as a surprise, as Frank previously confirmed that Jackie was demoted and Traci would not be returning to the show next season.
The long-running Bravo reality series has seen several different cast members come and go during its twelve-season run.
On Monday, Dolores' ex-husband joined hosts Claudia and Jackie Oshry, on their popular Podcast The Morning Toast, to discuss the future of Real Housewives.
When asked about what's next for the series Frank responded: "People come up to me and know more about the show than I do. Nobody tells us anything."
He continued: "Supposedly we have some new girls coming on this year [but] I know nothing".
Jackie then questioned the rumors surrounding one cast member's status moving forward.
"And Jackie [Goldschneider] being a 'friend of', have you heard that?"
SHORT END OF THE STICK
Jackie Goldschneider recently revealed why her costar, Traci Johnson, was cut from the Real Housewives of New Jersey reunion.
Despite "fixing" Teresa Guidice's feud with Melissa Gorga, the blonde was edited out of the three-part spectacle.
“But I don’t think Traci said anything groundbreaking at the reunion that it had to go in.”
"I really think they had to make a choice. I don’t think it was because they don’t think Traci was important to the cast," adding that the new star brought "so much" to season 12.
“[She offered] forward progress with some of the storylines, especially the family piece with Melissa [Gorga] and Teresa [Giudice],” Jackie continued.
"She kind of stepped in and was the mediator with that,” the mother-of-four said, adding that Traci's outdoor obstacle course moment “was one of the biggest scenes of the season.”

She concluded, "It was really the longest, hardest reunion I’ve ever sat through. But I do feel bad that she was edited out.”
