Jacqueline Laurita Reveals Why Kathy Wakile & Richard Wakile Will Never Move Forward With Melissa & Joe Gorga

OG and former Real Housewives of New Jersey star Jacqueline Laurita is speaking out on her experience on the Real Housewives.

Jacqueline spoke with us at AllAboutTRH podcast and agreed to answer listener questions as far as her experience on the show. Jacqueline was on the Real Housewives for seven seasons. The show followed Jacqueline Laurita’s struggle to conceive, her relationship with her sister-in-laws, her friendships and the dynamic between her and her teenage daughter. Laurita also found herself in the middle when it came to Teresa Giudice, Melissa Gorga and Kathy Wakile’s family drama.

At one point, Melissa and Joe Gorga were extremely close to cousin Kathy Wakile and husband Richard Wakile as they both joined the Real Housewives of New Jersey together for season 3. Things turned when Kathy and Richie left the show and never heard from Melissa Gorga. Now Jacqueline Laurita is speaking out on why Kathy would never move forward with Melissa and Joe Gorga to us explaining,

“the way she treated Kathy was so bad, like she would get Kathy worked up behind the scenes and then gaslighter on camera. The second, she didn’t have use for Kathy anymore. She, completely dumped her. And then she went publicly and was like, “oh, they’re just jealous that we’re still on the show and they’re not.” And like you say that about someone you care about. And then she changes. Then she changes the narrative later to say, “oh, we stopped talking to them because Theresa wanted us to.”

Years ago, Melissa Gorga told Andy on Watch What Happens Live that Kathy and Rich were bitter that Melissa and Joe were still on the show and that is why they stopped speaking. Jacqueline pointed that out to us adding that now the Gorgas are blaming Teresa for the relationship ending, but it was actually the comments made by Melissa and Joe following Kathy’s exit that is the real reason Kathy has no plans to move forward.

Jacqueline adds, “if that were the case, if that were true, you would have given your cousin, who’s always been there for you, the respect of a phone call to say, hey, we’re trying to work on our relationship with Teresa and a little tension if we’re, you know, we love you. But, you know, let’s take a break for a little bit while we’re filming and as we are trying to work things out, if that were true. But it wasn’t true. And that’s why she completely ignored Kathy and, you know, changed her narrative from, you’re just jealous. We’re on the show. And then to think Kathy is going to jump at the chance of being her friend. It’s insulting.”

Jacqueline also touched on Joe Gorga’s latest comments on Richard Wakile where he labeled him, ‘rude,’ and ‘nasty,’ after he snubbed him during a run-in, and didn’t say hi to him, “why would they want anything to do with them after all the stuff they’ve said about them publicly? When the Wikileaks have kept their mouth shut, they haven’t said anything about them publicly. They keep to themselves and not say anything. And the Gorgas are the ones that keep throwing these little seeds out there about the Wakiles, and then all of a sudden, you expect them to jump and be, you know, be your friend.”

I remember Joe doing an interview, I may be mistaken but I believe it was at BravoCon. He said his sister was selfish because she didn't want to share her newfound fame with them. Also said "why wouldn't you want your family to come on the platform and make money and receive notoriety." Very telling, jealous of his sister and juicy Joe and threw a tantrum at the christening screaming that his father loved juicy Joe more than him. Teresa always said she didn't want them to come on the show because they weren't in a good place. The Gorgas proved her right.

When it comes to the Gorgas, everything is Teresa's fault. THEY HAVE NO ACCOUNTABILITY WHATSOEVA!! I'm not condoning everything Teresa has said and done on the show but damn, these Gorgas are the villains and not the victims. The way they behaved when they came on the show, disgusting!! Melissa pretends to be concerned and a peacemaker but she's not, loves the fact that Teresa and Joe are apart. Bet she wouldn't allow her stumpy prick of a husband to say anything about her family, Joe is so stupid. Teresa called Meliar a gaslighting b*tch at the reunion and she's right. Too bad the Wakiles realized after the fact that she gaslit lit them the whole time. Can't vouch for everything Jacqueline says but she's on point with this.

A lot of us already knew that to be true because we heard the Gorgas lies per usual

Whenever Jacqueline's name comes up (which is never), the first image in my head is her (pretending?) to be asleep on the motorhome trip to Italy. It was so weird, and for me, sums up her seven seasons on the show. Today, she would be a one-season-wonder.

IKR? The weird thing is no one seemed to even notice. If memory serves, she was at odds with Teresa or something to that nature. Such a different show back then.

Jacqueline is the truth teller. She stated nothing but facts.
The Whorgas are nothing but users. It doesn’t matter if you are family or a friend, everyone is expendable.

In this case , I believe Jacqueline. As I saw what she is taking about myself on the show. She just went a little deeper.

As far as “truth teller” meh ? I can’t go along with that. Cracker Jac was pretty whack and far fetched when she was on the show , her tweets , her blogs. Damn!

Melissa did say this. She and Joe can't be trusted. They break the most basic rules of family trust.

I remember when Melissa was on WWHL and said that about Kathy and Richie.
