The Aydin spouses decided to transport forward in their marriage and were never making plans on bringing it up on the display.
Because the ladies dealt with a rumor surrounding infidelity in Jackie Goldscheider's marriage a season previous, Jennifer assumed that Margaret would have concrete proof to back up the rumor about Bill's cheating if she introduced it up on digital camera.
"I didn't think that Margaret would come to the table with something unless she had proof, and I didn't want to be outed as a liar — especially not in the beginning of the season," Jennifer stated to Distractify about opting for to be fair in that second.

I believe that she is very angry at the way that things went down at the reunion."
Jennifer clarified that she wasn't frustrated by way of Margaret's exact infidelity, but was afflicted via the best way that she discussed it on the display.
"Now, in hindsight, I realized that maybe I should have been more clear on what was irritating me about it," she explained. "It was the fact that she was bragging about it so much."

"I never want to say never because I'm always about growing and evolving," she mentioned a couple of friendship with Margaret.
