MONTVILLE, NEW JERSEY: Margaret Josephs is sharing details about her husband Joe Benigno's recent health scare, revealing the challenges they have faced and the steps they are taking to navigate this difficult situation.

In the eighth episode of 'The Real Housewives of New Jersey' Season 14, Margaret dropped a bombshell on Rachel Fuda by sharing that her husband Joe's medical tests had returned with some surprising findings.

Margaret expressed her concern and worry about what this unexpected news could mean for her husband's health and their future together. The revelation added a new layer of complexity and emotion to their already drama-filled lives, leaving viewers on the edge of their seats wondering how this news would impact the couple and their relationships with the other housewives.

"I'm so frazzled because Joe had routine blood work, and we just got a call from the doctor and they said, 'Joe, your PSA [Prostate-Specific Antigen] jumped high,'" Margaret said.

The Bravo housewife went on to say, "I freaked out because men his age can have prostate cancer really easily. We ran right to the urologist. They gave him all the tests. He had to be probed. We're going to get the results this week."

As Margaret anxiously awaited the results, a profound realization dawned on her and she said, "As soon as you hear the word 'cancer,' it's like, 'Oh! Now I'm just like, alright, Joe's gotta stay healthy. Nothing else matters."

"Happy Anniversary to the man that makes me whole! You wake up every day smiling, have my coffee ready and just love me for who I am. Love isn’t a big enough word for what I feel for you, for us. There is no me without you," she wrote in the caption of the post. 

In the most recent episode, Margaret also expressed the deep significance Joe holds in her life. While getting emotional, she said, "If something happened [to him] ... I don't even want to go there."
