Real Housewives of New Jersey star Jennifer Aydin’s New Year’s Day trip to Jersey Mike’s has sparked controversy. The Bravo star shared a video showing an incident at the sandwich shop, which has now gone viral, with her calling out the employees and a fellow customer for what she perceived as bad service. But how does Andy Cohen feel about the whole situation? He’s got some choice words for Aydin.
In her video, Jennifer Aydin recounted how her order seemed to be delayed, despite the fact that she had ordered first. According to Jennifer Aydin, the employees served the person behind her in line before fulfilling her sandwich order, leaving her to wonder why. “They took our order and then they took the lady’s order that was after me but they fulfilled her order first somehow, made us wait,” she claimed, adding that the employee she spoke to was an “80-year-old” who appeared to be in a bad mood. “Everything was slow. We’re not complaining. We get it, it’s early in the morning. You’re in a bad mood, it’s New Year’s, you’re working — I’d be pissed too,” Aydin continued.
The drama escalated when Aydin decided to add another item to her order while her sandwich was being made. The employee reportedly told her to “wait on the line again.” Jennifer Aydin even claimed she tried to get approval from the person behind her in line to add another sandwich, but apparently, that customer wasn’t interested in making the change.
Aydin posted the video on Instagram, where she and her husband Bill Aydin pointed out that the employees were “not smiling” as they served the customers. The incident took an unexpected turn when one of the employees, frustrated with the situation, posted a TikTok calling Aydin out: “I really hope this stupid b*tch has TikTok,” the employee said, adding, “I really hope I come up on your For You Page b*tch, I really hope you recognize me.” Ouch.
In the aftermath of the incident, it’s clear that the Jersey Mike’s situation isn’t going away quietly. But how does Andy Cohen feel about it?
On his Sirius XM show, Andy Cohen Live, Andy reacted to the situation, admitting that Aydin “melted down” over the ordeal. “How are you gonna cause so much trouble for yourself? At Jersey Mike’s? She melted down,” Cohen said, acknowledging that the backlash she’s received is a result of her own actions. “This is self-inflicted,” he added bluntly.
As for how Aydin should handle future situations? Andy Cohen has some advice. “Before you hit send on the post, take a beat, and say, ‘How’s this going to land?’” he suggested.
