Joe Gorga‘s lies about his niece Gia Giudice are being EXPOSED!
On the season 13 finale episode of the Real Housewives of New Jersey, Joe Gorge claimed that his niece Gia told him to leave his wife of nearly 20 years, Melissa Gorga.

Joe Gorga’s Lies
In his confessional interview, Joe claimed:
“Gia calls me up, and she’s like, ‘You know, I heard what happened. We just think that you can do better. Mommy [Teresa Giudice] thinks so, we all do.’”
Joe alleges this call from Gia took place after Teresa and her then-fiancé, now husband Louie Ruelas, invited him over to tell him about Melissa’s alleged cheating.
He added:
“They told me about this rumor, this cheating rumor, and they continue to push this issue. And he [Ruelas] goes, ’No, there’s multiple men.’ I’m sitting there as they’re telling me basically to, like, leave Melissa.”
While Joe’s claims are juicy AF, there is NOT one ounce of truth to his claims about Gia.

The Truth
Back in April, AllAboutTRH exclusively revealed that Joe Gorga’s claim was discussed at the RHONJ season 13 reunion.
Andy Cohen wanted to get to the bottom of this at the reunion, so he called Gia on the phone while filming. AllAboutTRH‘s sources reveal Gia denied that she ever told her uncle Joe Gorga to leave Melissa. She even swore on her late Nonno and Nonna to further prove she was telling the truth.
“Gia said that she never told her uncle to leave his wife but instead pleaded with him to come to Teresa Giudice’s wedding. Gia swore on her late Nonno and Nonna that she never told her uncle to leave Melissa Gorga and that it was strictly about him coming to Teresa’s wedding which he still choose not to come.”
AllAboutTRH then shared this tea on our podcast, which is when Gia publicly confirmed our source’s version of events to be the truth.
Gia responded to AllAboutTRH exclusively. She told us:
“Thank you! Sad that I have to be brought up in a bad light and have to defend myself to Andy and [others].”

RHONJ airs on Tuesdays at 8 pm on Bravo.

I stopped reading after you said AC called her. He did not. Teresa did and he took the phone. If you can’t get the basic details correct, then nothing else is trustworthy.
AATRH you should have a tag or have a counter, just for the Gorgas lie count. Would make it easier to scroll through one disproved lie after another.
Realizing her hubby is a woman-hating wife-beating misogynist, I’m starting to have some pity for Messy Melissa.
She tries to get her lick back with the cheating, to assuage the pain in her life and make her feel something good, even if it’s fleeting and temporary.
Her envy for Tre is the longing for freedom and strength. She needs an ally but can’t voice her real problems.
He’s controlling and quite easily angered. That’s also why she has so much pain behind her eyes. She’s stuck paying decades for a choice she made when she was 20 years old. She didn’t know the red flags back then. And now she can’t get out.
Who knows what Melissa has to deal with running away from thug Joey in that huge house built with her blood. So pitiful. Noone deserves to live like that. It’s a sad life.
I just don’t get why she keeps up with the facade in front of the cameras. Why not reveal the truth? Like when Camille joined to show who Kelsey Grammer really was.
The lies are so easily provable, but they know that most viewers don’t follow the show closely enough or care.
Like the Dina Manzo lie, completely unnecessaey.
It’s just illogical and quite absurd how much Joey Gorga lies. Melissa tries to be truthful, but then she has to lie to cover for him, and many times their lies don’t match up.
Maybe we can turn it into a drinking game, for when we do the rewatch.
Last week the fameWhorgas were lying on Antonia. Lied on Luis.
The week before they lied about Teresa. Although they do that often. So many lies one can hardly keep track.
Usually folks lie to gain an advantage of some kind.
But it seems they just lie because it’s 2pm, it’s Friday, the sun is out, or they were asked a simple question. There is no rhyme or reason to their lies.
If their lips are moving, the Gorgas are more than likely lying.
Joey and Melissa tell so many lies, they can’t keep them straight.
Joe threw his own parents under the bus by selling their home from under them…. You think he’s think twice about screwing over his god daughter and niece? He’s a sociopath!
Hopefully he tries to maintain a relationship in spite of Gia turning into a HW monster because sooner or later some of those nieces will need protection from Luis, Imo, based on his actions so far.
You’re so right. If he can do that to his own parents, then call the fbi on his sister and brother in law….There is no one the fameWhorgas won’t sacrifice at the altar to suit their aims.
Would it be helpful or hurtful if Fredo starts recording his calls…LOL!
Well Gia, since you said last night you were done with the Gorgas, why so upset months later that you had to publicize (for pity) that Melissa blocked you? Who’s the real game player here?
Maybe she thinks it will up her status and paycheck from Bravo. So far, she has really been nothing but programmed to trash Joe and Melissa when her button is pushed or any opportunity to chime in negatively. She adds less than zero to the show.
The best thing this man can teach his nieces is not to date a guy like him.
LOL.
Luis, yeah, but won’t happen since he has them snowed.
Hopefully they have learned that lesson. Joey’s the example of a toxic misogynistic male.
Little Joey gorga is the liar here, not Gia. Team Gia all the way.
Even if Gia did say it was only about the wedding it still was terrible thing to say. Do you think Tre would leave Lobster Looney behind and not get angry?
What? Asking him to come to the wedding was terrible? little joey is a LIAR.
Either asking him to come to the wedding without his wife OR asking him to leave the marriage with his wife doesn’t come from someone who cares so much about her “Dear Joe” uncle.
All he did wrong was continue to bad mouth the father a little too long, even though true and even though so did their mother who divorced him because she decided she blamed him too much to love him. When Gia confronted Joe about it, on TV no less, he finally realized it was wrong and he stopped 2 years ago. Then this year he posts a nice photo of himself and their Dad and Gia bad mouths him on social media!! For no reason other than spite and/or more money from the trashy bravo job! I think part of her turning into this unrecognizable thing is because of Luis’ influence and programming. He even got Gabriella to go on camera and trash Joe and Melissa. Thank goodness that kid is escaping to Michigan this fall.
There is a rat in the group, but this is all to much, l cannot understand why Luis is hiring a private investigator,he better get one for himself, he is not normal, he changed on the dime, l do believe he set himself up to meet teresa that day, when she was walking, l do not trust him one bit, he looked
crazy at that party, not himself, he wanted peace in the beginning so once he got what he wanted, which is teresa and fame, money, because l think he is a fraud, sorry Karma is likely to come around! GIA would lie for her mother, she should stick with her age group, and keep out of it.
Luis was all about his new reality TV career planned since he set out to meet Teresa, IMO. His sister (not Veronica) was a fan of the show so easily could have filled him in. She has a reputation of being dumb and having a huge ego so she was an easy mark. I thought maybe he decided he could learn to love her and meanwhile teach her and make her better. So what does he do last season–he starts training her. When she wouldn’t shut up and let him answer Marge’s questions about all the bad stuff coming out about him, he told Teresa if she didn’t shut up he was leaving. Somebody said, “Don’t leave”. He said, “How will she learn if I don’t leave?” Marge even said in a confessional something like-does he think she is a dog. Then later he got mad and said in a huff something like, “she just wants your seat”, referring to Marge and status on the show! He thinks he is so smart, smooth and good. HA! He humiliated Teresa all season by telling her how to act and what to say. Teresa was bored and annoyed all last season so I think he was training her to make her better on the show but of course it didn’t work. Ha. So then he goes into the opposite direction which is probably more like his normal self. Melissa said something in one episode about him being conflicted between who he is and who he wants to be. I think she’s right.
Gia is a disappointment but she chose to sell her soul to the bravo devil as I call it.
Team Gia on this one.
Lil Joe is blinded by his love for Melissa & that is admirable. I wonder what he thought after he heard Melissa saying “ she wanted to drunk dial her ex?”
I’m pretty sure Joe has cheated on Melissa, too. Melissa is a big flirt and Joe has ALLEGEDLY hit her because of it. Melissa’s ex-friend from season 5 and a lady with the last name of Russo have witnessed the incident.
He hit her?
Whoa. I know no couple is perfect but that is some toxic stuff.
And that she still knows his phone number…hahahaha
Melissa said that already knowing about her cheating rumor was told to Joe. She was letting Tre know that Joe told her. Off course Tre gave the camera a look like see the rumor is true. What a B she is.
Could be because it didn’t make sense she would blurt out something like that. Her own inside joke.
Yup. It was an odd thing for Melissa to say so she’s egging Tre on. Of course Tre responded as predicted giving a suspicious eye to the camera and confessional. Tre looked drugged on WWHL last night. Lobster Looney sitting with their attorney Leonard. LOL
I noticed he had to be in the audience so he didn’t get hard questions or show how he can’t comprehend simple instructions for Andy’s silly games. So that was their attorney next to him?
Probably laughed since he knew she was being sarcastic and/or baiting Teresa.
And all the times she has cheated on him.
Although, living with Joey must be hard for her. He seems so mental on camera, imagine how it is really behind closed doors. Cheating on the troll is her only solace to get her self esteem back.
