Housewives who? Amber Marchese may have left “Real Housewives of New Jersey” after one season, but she wasn’t done with reality TV. In fact, just two years after “RHONJ,” both she and Jim Marchese made a return to reality tv — this time, on “Marriage Boot Camp.”
Once again, the Marcheses brought the drama. In particular, the two were accused of faking their happy marriage, while other cast members could sense the tension. In one clip from the We TV show, “R&B Divas” alum Michael Ford chirped, “You got some underlying factors that you ain’t speaking about, you know what I’m saying?” Ford elaborated in a confessional, explaining, “Their room is right here. And my room is right here. At two o’clock in the morning, every night, they’re going at it … and then the next day, they come out like nothing ever happened.” That wasn’t the only criticism the couple faced. In a separate clip, Amber and Jim were questioned about their sex life and Amber’s apparent disinterest. In a joint confessional, Dr. Ish Major pointed out that while it was great that Jim was sharing his feelings, “He’s also revealing another dynamic: That he makes Amber feel guilty for refusing him.” Dr. Venus Nicolino, meanwhile, added that Amber was “internalizing that guilt.”

Drama aside, both Amber and Jim told The Cut that they enjoyed the experience. Amber said to the outlet: “I would absolutely do it again.”
