Hell has officially frozen over as Joe Giudice and Rich Wakile have made amends while reconnecting with each other in the Bahamas.
The Real Housewives of New Jersey alums recently reunited in the Bahamas and decided to put the past in the past.
Rich Wakile was recently vacationing in the Bahamas and decided to meet up with Joe Giudice, who currently resides there.
The two acknowledged their past issues and decided to move forward. After hashing things out, Rich and Joe spent the next day together, drinking and hanging out on a boat.
An eyewitness reached out to AllAboutTRH about Joe and Rich’s reunion and had the following tea to spill.
“Joe and Rich have been together a lot. Idk who this woman is with him. Rich is not very friendly at all. Joe, on the other hand, is seriously the best. But very handy. Anon, please.”
Rich’s reunion with Joe Giudice comes just weeks after he publicly shaded Joe and Melissa Gorga on Instagram.
In late June, the husband of former RHONJ star Kathy Wakile posted on Instagram about fighting and forgiving family.
The post read:
“No family is perfect. We argue, we fight, [and] we even stop talking to each other at times, but in the end, family is family. The love will always be there.”
However, Rich made it clear that he was NOT referring to Joe and Melissa Gorga with his comment.
Rich added: “Not for some farm animals.”
The “farm animals” dig refers to a comment Rich and Kathy’s son, Joseph Wakile, made about the Gorgas in February 2016.
Oddly enough, the Wakiles and Gorgas will soon be neighbors as Kathy and Rich recently bought a lakefront property just doors away from Joe and Melissa’s new home in Franklin Lakes.
Speaking of Joe Gorga, he had his own reunion with Joe Giudice in the Bahamas earlier this year.
Joe Gorga shared a video of him and his former brother-in-law hugging after running into each other at a bar.
He wrote: “Both walked into the same bar simultaneously. A lot of history there. We have memories since we were kids. I’m happy he’s doing well and looks good. We were both happy to see each other and catch up. Glad someone caught it. #life #rhonj.”
Oh, to have been a fly on the wall during Joe and Rich’s reunion in the Bahamas. Something tells me there was a lot of Joe Gorga bashing going on.
RHONJ will return to Bravo in 2024.

Reconciling is wonderful. Don’t spend 2-3 days with Joe, return to NJ and proceed to trash and speak poorly about Juicy again. If you are going to reconcile, then reconcile. That is actually a good thing if it can be done by Joe and Rich. Great! Forgiveness and moving forward is always good for family, life is too short.
O/T rumors are Kyle and Maurico are separated…wow!
Who?
They were able to make amends because Bravo can’t demand that they make fake drama anymore. Now bring back Juicy and Rosie. That was GOLD.
Did Richie apologize for screaming Fellanini and throwing Tre’s book in the trash? Kathy tried to explain her husbands actions to Tre but she wasn’t having it. You could see Richie and Kathy trying to push Tre and her family off the show. Those were dark days.
Seems to me that Richie, is trying to get his foot in the door to be on the show again. He is not related to Joe. He is related to Teresa through his marriage to Kathy. So why make a big deal about this “mended relationship”? Who cares if the 2 former cast members got together!! Richie is thirsty. End of story.
They all know each other since childhood.
Joe didn’t know Rich since childhood. Teresa’s parents and Juicy’s parents were friends, so Joe only knew Kathy thru Teresa and only knew Richie when he married Teresa.
Kathy and Teresa were close back then. Maybe not from childhood, but definitely when Kathy started dating Richie. Also, all the family dinners, events, funerals – everything. They know each other very well.
If they actually talked/ ironed things out. Good for them.
