What is the rumor surrounding Melissa Gorga and Nick Barotta? The rumor suggests that Melissa Gorga, a cast member of Real Housewives of New Jersey, was caught making out with a married man named Nick Barotta. Who started the rumor about Melissa Gorga and Nick Barotta? The rumor was initially shared by Laura Lee Jansen, who was once a close friend of Margaret Josephs, another cast member of Real Housewives of New Jersey. Laura claimed that Margaret had told her about the alleged hookup between Melissa and Nick. How did Melissa Gorga and Nick Barotta respond to the rumor? When the rumor first surfaced, both Melissa and Nick unfollowed each other on Instagram and removed all images of them together. However, recently staged photographs emerged showing Melissa and her husband Joe Gorga meeting up with Nick Barotta and Margaret Josephs, seemingly contradicting their previous actions.
