The Miami trip was "a complete s**t fest!” according to an insider. "Everyone was drunk the entire time and Teresa Aprea and Jim Marchese got into a huge fight.”
"Jim confronted Teresa about allegations that her mother, Santa, had slept with her husband, Rino,” the source said. "Nicole got in on the action, and they both were yelling and screaming at Jim."
"They categorically denied Jim's allegations about their mother, but Jim held his ground and didn't back down,” the source continued. "Their reaction to Jim's claims only prove that it's true, that Santa did have romantic relations with Rino."

And they didn’t cool down once they were out of the Florida sun. According to the source, "After the trip, Teresa, Nicole and Rino all refused to film with Jim going forward. They were disgusted by his actions and never want to see him again!”
Indeed, Jim was subsequently banned from attending the filming of the finale episode and "there are serious doubts he will be included in the reunion filming,” the source revealed. "The twins are adamant, they want nothing to do with Jim, and refuse to even be in the same vicinity as him."
The drama all began on a recent episode, when guest star Victoria Gotti told Jim’s wife Amber and Teresa Giudice that Rino had admitted to the dalliance with his mother-in-law.
A source previously told Radar, “It happened a long time ago, but Rino and Santa did have sex. And it happened more than once.”
