Jenn Fessler Says ‘Sorry’ Over Controversial Statement Where She Denied West Wilson Hookup Rumors
The Real Housewives of New Jersey alum Jennifer Fessler has offered an unexpected apology over an Instagram post in which she denied hooking up with Summer House’s West Wilson.
“I’m sorry!!!!!! I admit it,” Jenn, 57, wrote via Instagram on Saturday, May 9, before clarifying, “I used the wrong font.”
Earlier in the day, Jenn released a strongly-worded denial over speculation about her relationship with West, 31, following his girlfriend Ciara Miller claiming that the two hooked up in the past.
“In all seriousness, and while I can’t help but be a little flattered, it is not nice nor is it OK to post something categorically untrue and defamatory on social media,” , wrote via her Instagram Stories on Saturday, May 9. “Regardless of whatever rumors or apparent ‘evidence’ led you to that conclusion, that is the definition of libel.”
The statement continued, “If it were true, I would have no recourse. Because it’s a lie, this can get more complicated. Having said that, I hope we can rectify this. It’s enough now.”
Aside from the content of the post, Bravo fans were annoyed about the cursive-style font that Jenn used for the message and apparently let her know about it.
The former Real Housewives of New Jersey star unexpectedly ended up in the middle of the drama over West’s newfound relationship with Summer House costar Amanda Batula earlier this week. On March 31, Amanda and West confirmed they were exploring their “connection” mere months after Amanda announced her separation from her estranged husband, Kyle Cooke.
Jenn stuck up for West during an interview on the red carpet of Vulture‘s The Masterminds of Reality TV event in New York City on Thursday, May 7.
“[West] is the cutest, sweetest golden retriever puppy dog. He does not mean any harm. He didn’t mean it,” Jenn said on the red carpet on Thursday, May 7. “He’s just trying to have a good time. He doesn’t wanna hurt anyone. Give him a break.”
Ciara, 30, responded to a clip of Jenn’s comments with a shocking allegation, writing, “Lol, because they slept together too.”
Jenn initially responded to Ciara’s accusation with a light-hearted statement to Page Six on Friday, May 8, saying, “It’s flattering that anyone would think someone who slept with Ciara Miller would be interested in sleeping with me.”
West also tried to brush off the drama with an Instagram Story where he said the hookup rumors were “news to me.” A source close to West exclusively told Us Weekly that Ciara’s allegation was “absolutely not true,” dismissing it as “such a silly accusation.”
Ciara subsequently doubled down on her accusation by sharing a Summer House photo of Amanda via Threads, along with the cryptic caption, “If I send this to you I’m about to lie straight to your face.”
In the wake of Ciara’s accusation, Jenn’s recent Instagram post in honor of her 27th wedding anniversary has resurfaced and raised eyebrows. (Jenn has been married to her husband, Jeffrey Fessler, since 1999 and they share two children, son Zachary and daughter Rachel.)
“Happy 27,” Jenn wrote to Jeff via Instagram on April 10. “You could sleep with West or Amanda and I’d still stay!”
