Danielle Staub to Return to Bravo's REAL HOUSEWIVES OF NJ Next Season

According to the NY Post, Danielle Staub will make a return appearance to Bravo's REAL HOUSEWIVES OF NEW JERSEY when the reality series returns next season. A source close to the show told In Touch, "Bravo has offered Danielle a contract. Danielle is contemplating whether this will be full-time or part-time." Another show insider added, "She will be filming several episodes."

"The producers squeezed all the juice they could from the Giudices-versus-Gorgas story line and had to think of a fresh outlet for drama," the source tells In Touch. "Having [Danielle] back on will ruffle a lot of feathers!"

Staub was booted from the reality series after the second season due to her inability to get along with other cast members. Last year her appearance in a widely circulated sex tape caused a stir.

According to the report, filming on the next season has commenced and will include footage of the housewives dealing with the devastating results of Hurricane Sandy, which hit the Garden State last month.
