Melissa Gorga isn’t buying Teresa Giudice’s sudden change of heart, and she’s making that crystal clear.
Speaking exclusively at Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” Awards, the Real Housewives of New Jersey star addressed recent comments made by her sister-in-law, Teresa Giudice, about a possible reconciliation. But for Gorga, it’s far too late for olive branches.
“The truth is, for the last year, the door has been closed,” Gorga told hosts Evan Real and Danny Murphy during the event, which was sponsored by Tri-State Cadillac and Malibu.
Gorga, 46, expressed confusion over Giudice’s apparent about-face, noting that Teresa has been very vocal in the past about wanting nothing to do with her brother Joe Gorga and his wife.
“[Giudice] has said out loud on multiple platforms, podcasts, whatever it might be, that the door is closed. So, the truth is, I’m just confused why it might be opening or cracking a little bit.”
With RHONJ currently in flux after a turbulent Season 14 and rumors swirling about a major cast shakeup, Gorga didn’t rule out the possibility that Giudice’s timing might have more to do with the show than with genuine family healing.
“Neither of us have had any contact in probably two years at this point, so that’s just so strange to come out with that out of nowhere,” she added.
Giudice, 53, sparked the speculation during a recent appearance on Jeff Lewis Live, where she was asked whether a family reunion might be on the table. Her response?
“Never say never,” she said with a smirk.
Her daughter Gia Giudice, who joined her mother for the interview, chimed in with her own perspective:
“I think everyone can co-exist. Just put your ‘big girl’ panties on and be mature,” Gia, 24, said, adding, “I think the viewers would wanna see that, too.”
Gia, who stars in Next Gen NYC, also hinted that the long-running feud may have simply run its course.
“I think there’s nothing more [to fight over] just because it’s been going on for so long. So, obviously, they’re gonna wanna see some sort of resolution.”
But if Melissa Gorga has anything to say about it, that resolution may not come anytime soon.
As the RHONJ cast braces for a revamp, one thing’s clear: this family drama is far from over — even if some doors are permanently shut.
