Margaret Josephs believes ‘f–kboy’ West Wilson spread Jennifer Fessler hookup rumor ‘for clout’
West Wilson may have denied hooking up with Jennifer Fessler — but Margaret Josephs thinks he started the rumor himself.
Josephs, 59, dubbed Wilson a “f–kboy” who “says things for clout” while chatting with Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” hosts Evan Real and Danny Murphy at Tuesday’s “Summer House” reunion watch party sponsored by The Cocktail Collection at Branch at the Park Terrace Hotel.
“I think that’s probably what happened,” the “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star speculated, weeks after Wilson’s ex Ciara Miller made headlines for claiming he slept with Fessler.
“Do I think West might have said something to Ciara? Absolutely,” Josephs said Tuesday. “Do I think Ciara lies? Absolutely not. Do I think West might have said, ‘This went down?’”
Fessler, notably, is married to Jeffrey Fessler and has denied the claim — as has Wilson.
Josephs doubled down on “nothing happen[ing]” between the unlikely duo.
“I would have known at the time,” she claimed. “I think Jenn would have confided in me. She’s known to be messy, she’s always very touchy-feely, but nothing happened.”
The designer, who “felt bad” for Jennifer and told her to “cut it” out and stop publicly “defend[ing]” herself, noted that rumors spread last year about Wilson’s co-star Jesse Solomon sleeping with Erika Jayne.
This, she alleged, may be “the other reason West was trying to say, ‘I did something as well.’”
She quipped, “These women aren’t using [them] for clout. These guys are little f–kboys. No one cares about you, let’s be honest.”
“Summer House” alum Stephen McGee pointed out that Joe Bradley from “Souther Hospitality” was the one “who started this” by revealing in 2024 that he hooked up with Luann de Lesseps.
“[He] started the trend of ‘let me try to sleep with a Housewife,’” the actor said.
Wilson did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
Wilson’s “In the City” co-star Lindsay Hubbard similarly called him a “clout chaser” while discussing the Fessler scandal on Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” podcast earlier this month.
“We know he doesn’t discriminate, there’s no ageism. Whatever is walking, talking and has some holes, he’s in,” the 39-year-old said, insisting she was not “really shocked” by the chatter.
Wilson, who is also under fire for his current romance with Miller’s former BFF Amanda Batula, reacted to Miller’s bombshell claim by telling his Instagram followers the hookup was “news to” him.
Fessler also issued repeated denials — and hinted at a potential lawsuit by calling Miller’s comment “the definition of libel.”
Miller, 30, subsequently shared a pointed message about “liars” via Threads, also writing, “Don’t f–k with me.”
