Former "Real Housewives of New Jersey"cast member Dina Cantin is responding to reports that her estranged sister Caroline Manzo has written a letter in support of her ex-husband Thomas ‘Tommy’ Manzo. Cantin's ex-husband was recently released from prison after being accused of “hiring a hitman” to attack her current husband, David Cantin. The former housewife shared that she is no longer going to be “quiet” in response to a post on Instagram made by one of her good friends, Luke McKibben.

“Normally Lukey I would ask you to take this down,” she started. “But ya know what? I’m starting to think some just expect us to stay quiet while they continue to hurt others… that’s what gives them that ‘power,’” responded Cantin who warned that it is not okay to take people’s “kindness for weakness”. Fortunately, the former housewife star is a pro at not letting negativity hold her down, sharing that if she doesn’t laugh at this point, she will just keep crying.

Manzo was one of about a dozen people who wrote letters in support of Tommy. She called him “kind-hearted and caring,” and truly praised what a good person he is because she is such a great judge of character. Clearly, Cantin's friends could no longer sit by and “be silent.” McKibben’s post that Cantin responded to stated that she has been taking the high road for too long and if she will not stand up for herself, then he will.

The post mocked Manzo for her inauthentic personality on the "Real Housewives of New Jersey"by using the hashtag “let me tell you something about my family” the 59-year-old’s famous reality TV show words. While she wanted viewers to believe she and her family were “thick as thieves” she was in a feud with her sister the whole time. Now she seems to have solidified whose side she is on. McKibben made sure to note that for years Cantin has been forbidding him to drop the tea on her sister and her shady ways but apparently enough is enough.

The women of the "Real Housewives of New Jersey"do not shy away from shady men. Many of the Jersey husbands have had run-ins with the law, including Joe Giudice, who went to jail and was even deported for his crimes. Joe Gorga has been accused of having money issues with people he has worked with and one incident was even talked about on the latest season of "RHONJ." The newest house husband to have some shady activity in his background is Teresa Giudice’s boyfriend Luis Ruelas, who apparently had some trouble after a road rage incident.
