President Trump has appointed “Real Housewives of New Jersey” alum Siggy Flicker to the Holocaust Memorial Council.
The former matchmaker — whose stepson was charged in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol — was named along with four others in the president’s announcement via Truth Social Tuesday.
The five new appointees, along with other previously announced members, will replace those appointed by President Joe Biden, who were fired by Trump on April 29.
“They are all strong supporters of Israel, and will ensure we NEVER FORGET. Congratulations to all!” Trump wrote.
Flicker, 57, responded to the announcement in a post shared via Instagram, saying, “Thank you for the privilege & honor to represent and never forget.”
The Bravolebrity’s stepson, Tyler Campanella, was arrested in April 2024 and charged with five misdemeanors in connection with the infamous Jan. 6 riot at the US Capitol.
The FBI indictment cited a social media post from Flicker’s account allegedly showing her support for Campanella’s alleged involvement in the attack, per the Washington Post.
She shared a picture of Campanella inside the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, with the caption, “I love patriots so much. Stay safe Tyler. We love you.”
He pleaded not guilty to the charges of trespassing, disorderly conduct and demonstrating in a restricted building.
His case was later dismissed after Trump issued pardons on his first day in office for those convicted or facing charges for their alleged participation in the riot.
The reality star has long been a vocal Trump supporter on social media. In December 2024, she shared a photo taken at Mar-a-Lago as she rang in the new year.
“Happy new year from the greatest president in the history of America ……DJT!!!!” she captioned a photo of herself posing with Trump.
Flicker — who is a member of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago Club — told the Washington Post last year that she visits the Palm Beach, Fla., resort three or four times a week.
She claimed it feels like “what America used to be” before the country was overrun with “jihadis” and “criminals.”
Flicker starred in Seasons 7 and 8 of “RHONJ.” She announced her exit from the show before filming for Season 8 wrapped in 2017.
Her departure came on the heels of her feud with Margaret Josephs, who allegedly made antisemitic remarks toward Flicker during an argument before a cast trip to Milan.
At the time, a source told Page Six that Flicker decided to leave after she was bullied by the cast.
“It’s a tough show with tough people,” an insider told us. “Siggy was definitely out of her element.”
“That whole Jewish thing got to her,” the insider said, referencing her fight with Josephs. “This is not an afternoon school special. These girls are hardcore.”
However, a different source claimed the decision ultimately came from the network.
“Bravo wasn’t asking her back,” the source told us. “No one wanted to work with her anymore. She was spiraling completely out of control, so she wasn’t going to be asked back. This was a very cordial way of mutually desisting her off the show. It’s the best thing all around.”
