NJ Housewives Are Coming Back and the Gloves Are Coming off!

Today Tv Show table-flipping scene from The Real Housewives of New Jersey’s first season has nothing on the drama coming in the reality show’s sophomore season, which premieres May 3 on Bravo. This year’s there’s boxing, police officers, two pregnancies, a trip to Venice, Italy, plus all the usual catfights in the mix.

Then we see “This season is exceptional,” Caroline Manzo told PEOPLE recently at Bravo’s Upfront party. “I think it touches on so many different things. It will make you laugh. It will make you cry. It will make you go crazy. It definitely tops the last season’s table flip.”

Then Manzo adds, the biggest drama may be intrafamilial. “Danielle lives in another town so I don’t know anything about her,” she says. “[But] Dina and Jacqueline — just watch what happens.”
