The Real Housewives of New Jersey alum Jennifer Fessler went cryptic on Mother’s Day 2026 amid swirling affair rumors.
“A lot that’s new but, most importantly, Happy Mother’s Day!” Fessler, 57, succinctly wrote via Threads on Sunday, May 10.
Jennifer has been married to her husband, Jeff Fessler, since 1999. The Fesslers share son Zachary and daughter Rachel, who each honored their mom on Sunday.
“Happy Mother’s Day @jennfessler!!!!” Zachary wrote via his Instagram Stories on Sunday. “Best to ever do it, I love you always.”
Rachel shared her own social media tribute, writing, “Happy Mother’s Day to the most resilient woman I know.”
Jeff also publicly shared a Mother’s Day tribute to his wife of 24 years.
“Happy Mother’s Day to my Messy Fessy,” he wrote via his Instagram Stories on Sunday. “The kids and I will lay in bed and rage with you all day long if you want, but at least consider champagne and cake!”
Several hours earlier, Jennifer was accused of hooking up with Summer House star West Wilson. Both the RHONJ alum and Wilson, 57, vehemently denied the allegations.
“In all seriousness, and while I can’t help but be a little flattered, it is not nice nor is it OK to post something categorically untrue and defamatory on social media,” Jennifer wrote in a Saturday, May 9, statement. “Regardless of whatever rumors or apparent ‘evidence’ led you to that conclusion, that is the definition of libel.”
She added, “If it were true, I would have no recourse. Because it’s a lie, this can get more complicated. Having said that, I hope we can rectify this. It’s enough now.”
Jennifer’s relationship with Wilson previously raised eyebrows in 2024, when she nicknamed him “Messy Wessy” in a now-viral livestream.

“I posted that really quickly. I should have thought that through,” she exclusively told Us Weekly at the time. “I feel terrible because my best friend who was there, she took it. There are times where I just think I’m so funny, and I just think everyone would think that I’m so funny. I didn’t realize at the time he was, like, America’s sweetheart. I didn’t get that I was sitting with the ‘It Boy’ of 2024. I’m calling him Wes, his name is West.”
Jennifer further apologized to Wilson for botching his name in the drunken video.
“I don’t know why I made fun of his name. There were people that were very offended,” she told Us. “I’m sorry. It’s a great name. I don’t know why I thought that was funny. In the moment, it was. But West Wilson is a very cool name. He’s a very cool guy.”
