'Real Housewives of New Jersey' Season 5: Entire Cast Returns in June (VIDEO)
"Real Housewives of New Jersey" will kick off season five in June and the Bravo TV network has confirmed that the entire season four cast will return.
Teresa Giudice, Melissa Gorga, Caroline Manzo, Jacqueline Laurita and Kathy Wakile appear to be in a much better place in season five, with all castmates reportedly focused on putting the past behind them.
"The women also find themselves shifting through rubble after Hurricane Sandy leaves much of the Jersey Shore in ruins, including some of their homes," writes BravoTV.com.

"A sense of communal rebuilding encourages Teresa to rise above the past drama with her brother [Joe] and sister-in-law, Melissa, and mend her family for good," the network adds.
During the season four reunion TV show Giudice and Gorga, who are both sisters-in-law, were embroiled in a vicious argument over claims that Giudice allegedly set up the mother of four by exposing her past. Manzo also had her own grievances with Giudice, but all three agreed to counseling in a bid to move forward in season five.
"Teresa, Melissa and Caroline are sick and tired of all the fighting, so they say, so Bravo brought in a therapist from California to try and stop the arguments," a source allegedly told Fox News correspondent Tom Murro.
Giudice, 40, and Gorga, 34, also dragged their husbands Joe Giudice and Joe Gorga into therapy.
Both men previously came to blows in recent seasons while defending their wives.
"Both Joe Giudice and Joe Gorga were also in the group therapy session, but Caroline's husband Al Manzo was not," the source said.
During a separate meeting, Giudice reportedly ended her ongoing feud with Laurita, who is her former best friend. Both women were reportedly spotted having dinner with their respective spouses at The Brick House in Wyckoff, N.J. and it was reportedly just like old times.
"Teresa and Jax had dinner with each other and their husbands, Joe Giudice and Chris Laurita, recently, and it was actually a friendly night all captured on camera by Bravo," a source told RadarOnline.com.
"There weren't any fights, no table flipping and surprisingly no arguing, at least not on camera," the source continued.
It was claimed that a bloody brawl involving Joe Gorga, the Lauritas and the Manzo kids, was threatening to rehash old wounds Tuesday. For more on the alleged brawl click here.
