Melissa Gorga set the document straight relating to her husband Joe Gorga’s encounter with Joe Giudice, his former brother-in-law.
The two males, who had been as soon as costars on the Real Housewives of New Jersey, feuded for years earlier than lately operating into one another within the Bahamas. After the encounter – which was filmed and posted on Joe Gorga’s Instagram – Giudice’s daughter Gia accused her uncle Joe of being an opportunist.
In an interview with E! News, Melissa addressed the lads’s sudden reunion.
“He showed up to the hotel we were at, we didn’t go look for Joe Giudice,” mentioned Melissa, who known as it “sad” that anybody would suspect Joe Gorga of a hidden agenda. “[Joe Giudice] obviously knew what hotel we were at.”
She additionally claimed, “Joe Giudice showed up to where we were gambling,” and their reunion was utterly “unexpected.”
“We were walking into a bar at the same time, and they saw each other,” the star added. “Thank god the two of them opened arms and hugged it out. No mention of the past, no mention of Teresa [Giudice], not even one word. No mention of her new man, zero. The two of them talked about what Joe’s doing for work now that their fathers had both passed away. They haven’t seen each other in eight years.”
Though she talked about former “ups and downs” – earlier than Giudice was deported from the United States – Melissa claimed, “my husband let it all go, he saw him, and he felt like he saw family.”
Regarding the warmth Joe Gorga acquired after posting the encounter on social media, Melissa expressed, “Joe’s damned if he does, damned if he doesn’t.”
Does Melissa imagine the dynamics of her household could be altered had she not joined the present?
“No, I don’t,” she answered. “I don’t think it would be much different … There was stuff that happened way before the Housewives of New Jersey even existed. My first couple years of my marriage she was not on the show. It was always a little bit of a bumpy ride. I always saw the tension between brother and sister and even her ex-husband way before The Real Housewives. I kind of entered the family, and it was this way.”
Melissa needs the household’s feuding would finish. “It’s to the point now where it just feels toxic,” she defined. “I wish [Teresa] luck, I wish her happiness. I don’t think we’re going to go to lunch together, but I do want her to be happy.”
The Real Housewives of New Jersey season 13 airs Tuesdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
