Bravo Casting for Real Housewives of New Orleans

written by Lara Sophia

Buckle up, Bravo fans, because a new Real Housewives franchise is reportedly coming to the network!

The Jasmine Brand reports that Bravo is looking to add The Real Housewives of New Orleans to its ever-growing roster of Real Housewives series.

Bravo is currently casting for The Real Housewives of New Orleans. They are looking to build a very specific cast for this new franchise. Bravo wants to cast NBA wives from the New Orleans Pelicans as well as local socialites from the area.

No one has signed on to the show just yet, as Bravo is still in the early planning stages of the franchise.

So, what are Bravo fans saying about this news? Well, the reaction has been quite mixed, to say the least.

Many Bravo quickly noted that the network should bring back the short-lived Southern Charm New Orleans. Most fans agree that the network didn’t invest enough time and money into that franchise in order for it to succeed.

“NO. BRING BACK SOUTHERN CHARM NEW ORLEANS. That show was Black excellence personified. We need more shows like that on Bravo,” one fan commented. A second fan agreed, commenting, “Maybe some of the cast from Southern Charm New Orleans can get another shot since it didn’t seem like bravo put money into that franchise.”

“The ppl want Southern Charm New Orleans!” a third fan pointed out.

Other fans noted that “it’s about damn time,” while some said that would like to see the New Orleans Housewives franchise be “another all-black cast” like the Real Housewives of Atlanta and the Real Housewives of Potomac.

Another fan said they hope Bravo finds castmembers that “embody the spirit of NOLA.”

“As someone from New Orleans, I hope they find old money or women from historic families and civil rights leaders and not “basketball wives” Basketball wives have nothing to do with the spirit of Nola,” the fan quipped.

Bravo has yet to confirm or deny reports that a New Orleans Housewives franchise is in the works. Only time will tell, but we are excited about the possibility.

This isn’t the first time news of a New Orleans Housewives franchise has come about. Back in December 2022, SHED Media teased that they were currently casting ladies from New Orleans.

“Producers are seeking fun, fabulous, glamorous women in New Orleans,” the announcement read.

At the time, the production company then hinted on their Instagram Stories that these ladies could “potentially” become the Real Housewives of New Orleans “if we do a good job” at casting.

Thoughts on this news? Sound off below!

Yes, according to reports from The Jasmine Brand, Bravo is looking to add The Real Housewives of New Orleans to its lineup of Real Housewives series.

 Bravo is specifically looking to cast NBA wives from the New Orleans Pelicans as well as local socialites from the area.

No, Bravo is still in the early planning stages of the franchise, and no one has been confirmed for the show at this time.

RHONJ Co-Stars and Jennifer Aydin’s Earthquake Relief Fund: Who Donated and Who Didn’t

by Lara Sophia
written by Lara Sophia

RHONJ‘s Jennifer Aydin is spilling the tea!

This time around, Jennifer is revealing which of her RHONJ co-stars are generous and which are cheapos!

The RHONJ star reveals which co-stars donated to her earthquake relief fund for Turkey. Over the last month, Jennifer has been raising money in order to help those affected by two huge earthquakes that hit Turkey on February 7. First, a 7.3 magnitude earthquake hit northern Turkey near the border of Syria. Hours later, another earthquake with a magnitude of 7.5 hit the area. The event left nearly 60k dead and many others in need.

Jennifer tells The U.S. Sun why she teamed up with the Mayor of Paterson, New Jersey, and the NJCDC to create an earthquake relief fund for Turkey.

“People are homeless and are just begging for help. They’re all looking for me to be a voice. The first week that this happened, I was getting a lot of messages from people that are in Turkey. I’m of Turkish descent, and I have family in Turkey.  Thank god no one was affected that I knew personally, but their extended family has been affected. 100 percent of the donations are used to buy supplies for those in need,” the mom of five explains.

The Bravoleb continues to urge RHONJ fans to donate as contributions have stalled recently, noting that a little goes a long way.

“I feel like now, since it has not been in the news as much as it had been, people are somewhat forgetting. I can’t forget because, for me, it’s personal. I keep being reached out to by people in need asking to be a voice. Here I am asking everybody to dig deep into their pockets,” she said. “Anything as little as $150 gets a full family a tent with flooring. We just need to get the word out there. We’ve spent all the money. We need to get the ball rolling. It’s a long road ahead of them.”

As for which members of her Bravo and RHONJ family have donated to the fund, Jennifer says she “personally made a very nice donation,” as did Andy Cohen.

When it comes to her RHONJ co-stars, Jennifer reveals that Dolores Catania and Teresa Giudice donated to the fund as well.

To date, Jennifer has yet to receive any donations from the rest of the RHONJ cast and joked that she will be confronting Melissa Gorga, Rachel Fuda, Daniella Cabral, and Margaret Josephs for not donating.

Who wants to bet that Jennifer calls out the ladies at the reunion?!?! Can’t wait to see it.

RHONJ airs on Tuesdays at 9 pm on Bravo.

Ariana Madix: Unveiling the Truth Behind Pump Rules Reunion and Anniversary Celebrations

by Lara Sophia
written by Lara Sophia

Ariana Madix is an unbothered Queen. The Pump Rules star is making it clear that she’s not keeping tabs on her cheating ex Tom Sandoval or her ex-friend Raquel Leviss.

“I don’t know what they do,” Ariana told Page Six after being asked about Tom and Raquel’s post-reunion date night. More on that in a bit. The gossip outlet caught up with the 37-year-old on Saturday while running errands. This was the first time Ariana was spotted in public since filming the Pump Rules season ten reunion on Thursday, March 23.

“At this point, I don’t care about anything that either of them does,” she quipped.

When asked how the reunion went, Ariana teased, “You’ll have to wait and see on that.”

Instead of focusing on Tom and Raquel, Ariana is being positive and setting her sights on her very bright future, which includes a role in a new movie. Ariana is set to star in Lifetime’s “Buying Back My Daughter,” which is about a mother who discovers her missing teen daughter was sex trafficked after she locates her image on an escort website.

“It’s a Lifetime movie. [I’m] very excited, I leave tomorrow,” Ariana admitted. “I’m playing a police officer. Like a detective kind of situation.”

Meanwhile, Tom and Raquel seem to be sticking together amid their cheating scandal. The two disgraced Bravo stars were spotted grabbing dinner last Thursday night after taping the season ten reunion.

Oddly enough, Tom took Raquel to the same restaurant where he and Ariana celebrated their nine-year anniversary back in January.

The Pump Rules Instagram account shared a photo of Tom and Ariana celebrating their anniversary in January at Musso & Frank Grill in Hollywood. This is the same exact restaurant Tom took Raquel to last Thursday. TMZ captured photos of Tom and Raquel at the restaurant and published them online.

It seems nothing is sacred to Sandevil.

Joanna Krupa’s Divorce Announcement

by Lara Sophia
written by Lara Sophia

Another marriage is over for RHOM alum Joanna Krupa.

According to Page Six, Joanna’s husband, Douglas Nunes, filed for divorce from the Bravo alum in Los Angeles on March 24.

Nunes cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason behind their split and listed their date of separation as January 2, 2023.

The two married in 2008 in Joanna’s native Poland. They share a three-year-old daughter named, Asha-Leigh. Nunes is requesting joint legal and physical custody of their daughter.

Nunes also requested the court deny any requests for financial support to the former Real Housewives star. He then asked that the court decide who receives what from their joint marital assets. There was no mention of a prenuptial agreement in the court filing.

This is the 43-year-old second marriage. Joanna was previously married to Romain Zago from 2013 to 2017. Their relationship was heavily featured in the early seasons of RHOM.

Now that Joanna is single, this may be the perfect time for her to return to RHOM! Andy Cohen, give Joanna a call! Joanna joined RHOM during season 2. While she only starred in the Miami Housewives franchise for two seasons, I think it’s safe to say she made quite an impression on fans.

RHOM is expected to return for season 6 in late 2023 or early 2024. Bravo and Peacock have yet to announce their plans to renew the Miami Housewives franchise for a sixth season, but fans expect the announcement to come any day now, considering the amazing numbers it pulled in for season 5.

Thoughts on this news? Would you like to see Joanna back on RHOM?

The reason cited for Joanna Krupa and Douglas Nunes’ split is “irreconcilable differences.”

 Yes, Joanna Krupa and Douglas Nunes share a three-year-old daughter named Asha-Leigh.

Season 13: Kim Richards and Camille Grammer Spotted Filming for RHOBH

by Lara Sophia
written by Lara Sophia

The Bravoverse is shaking at the moment after three veteran Beverly Hills Housewives were spotted filming for season 13 of RHOBH over the weekend.

AllAboutTRH gave Bravo fans the 411 on Denise Richards filming for season 13 at Kyle Richards’ dinner party on Friday, March 24, but now we can report that RHOBH OG Camille Grammer was also in attendance.

The RHOBH OG revealed this news on Instagram over the weekend on Instagram. Camille shared two selfies of her in the car, then a few images from the party, which showed off some drink-making and the Bravo cameras.

“Off to dinner, then dessert ?? Spring colors for a beautiful evening after days and months of rain,” Camille captioned the series of photos.

Kyle and RHOBH co-star Sutton Stracke commented on the post. “Beautiful,” Kyle wrote, while Sutton commented, “Love your dress!!! So pretty.”

While this is such exciting news for RHOBH fans, the news was quickly trumped on Monday morning when photos and video of Kim Richards filming for season 13 were released online.

Over the weekend, Kim was spotted filming for season 13 with her sister Kyle and Dorit Kemsley. The three went on a hike and, from the looks of things, had a very serious conversation. It is unclear what the conversation was about, but perhaps it could have been about Kyle’s fallout with her and Kim’s sister Kathy Hilton.

Speaking of Kathy, it’s unclear if she is returning as a friend of the Housewives for season 13 or not. Kathy joined RHOBH as a friend of the Housewives during season 11 and quickly became a fan favorite on the show. However, a source reveals that Kathy has yet to decide if she will do another season.

“Kyle is waiting like everyone else to see if she ends up doing the show,” a source told PEOPLE earlier this month.

The source added that Kyle and Kathy are “still not speaking” since they battled it out at the season 12 reunion in October 2022.

“Nothing has really changed since the reunion. They’re still not speaking. Nobody has made an effort to sit down and patch things up,” the source explained. “Kyle is busy focusing on herself right now, and Kathy is doing the same. But they’re family, and each of them are supportive of the other and always will be.”

Perhaps Kim’s return to RHOBH is an attempt to bring her sisters back together for the sake of their family.

Kim and Kathy both teased Kim’s possible return to RHOBH in 2022.

“I think Kyle and I can make that happen. They have already reached out to her, so???” Kathy said about Kim possibly returning to RHOBH during a June 2022 interview with Christian Grey Snow on Instagram.

A few months prior, Kim revealed that she has talked with Andy Cohen about potentially returning to RHOBH.

“I did have a phone call. Andy Cohen called me last week, so maybe that could be one of our discussions,” Kim teased during an  Instagram Live Thursday, February 10, 2022. “He said, you know, a lot of people have been asking for me to come back, and he said he thought, ‘I’ll go right to the source,’ so he did. And I do love Andy a lot; he’s great.”

RHOBH is expected to return for season 13 in mid-to-late 2023.

Thoughts on this news? Are you excited about Kim and Camille’s possible returns to RHOBH? Sound off below!

The veteran Beverly Hills Housewives spotted filming for season 13 of RHOBH were Denise Richards, Camille Grammer, and Kim Richards.

 RHOBH OG Camille Grammer was also in attendance at Kyle Richards’ dinner party for season 13 filming.

 It is unclear if Kathy Hilton is returning as a friend of the Housewives for season 13. She has yet to decide if she will do another season.

RHONJ Cast: Melissa and Joe Gorga Open Up About Bravo’s Gag Order

by Lara Sophia
written by Lara Sophia

Bravo has the RHONJ cast on lockdown for the remainder of season 13 due to things getting way too ugly on social media.

Melissa and Joe Gorga discussed the gag order on the most recent episode of Melissa’s On Display podcast, which is hilarious, considering they aren’t supposed to be talking about the show or the gag order.

“We got a gag order for the first time ever,” Joe explains. “Let’s tell the truth. We, we’ve been on the show for 13 years, and we’ve never been on a gag order through Bravo. We’ve never had a say, ‘You cannot talk about the show, you cannot talk about anything. You can’t repost anything really about the show.’ So it’s something new.”

Melissa elaborated, “The whole entire cast was told [to stop talking about the show]. We all got a little slap on the wrist because, for some reason, this season has been really kooky. People just getting kooky on social media. There’s a lot of lies. There’s a lot of false narratives out there. So, Bravo for the first time ever in 13 years [to give ] all of us, every single one of us [a gag order is crazy.]”

She continued, “So if you guys notice that we are not reposting fan accounts, we are not allowed. Um, the whole cast is not allowed. I kind of like it. I love it. We’re not allowed to really discuss the show other than the approved pictures we’re allowed to post. So this is like the first time ever that this has happened to us. And it’s just so weird. This year everything’s different.”

“But don’t believe everything you hear on social media and believe,” Joe notes, to which Melissa adds, “Almost zero this year. I would never say it so strongly this year. It’s like next-level weirdness. Like to the point that I giggle.”

AllAboutTRH gave exclusive insight into the RHONJ gag order on the March 24 episode of our podcast.

The gag order went out after Melissa, and Margaret Josephs did a series of interviews after Bravo told the entire cast to “lay off and stop talking about the show” because “things are getting so out of hand” outside the show on social media.

Meanwhile, the Gorgas are ALREADY renovating their brand new Franklin Lakes home. Earlier this month, AllAboutTRH dished about some changes the Gorgas made to their new home, but it seems now that Joe and Melissa are doing even more updates to their home.

According to photos posted by @MelissasOldNose on Twitter, Melissa and Joe are changing the outside style of their home after receiving so much criticism on social media from fans.

“I am not even kidding, their house is the most basic on the block. They stand out terribly,” a source tells @MelissasOldNose on Twitter.

The source adds: “Their neighbors’ houses are nice, elegant. Theirs is so ugly. It looks so out of place. Their lawn is a MESS. No one can possibly live there, so IDK where they have been taking their pictures because this house is FAR from done.”

Bravo imposed a gag order on the RHONJ cast for season 13 due to the escalating negativity and false narratives being spread on social media.

The entire RHONJ cast has been instructed to refrain from discussing the show or reposting anything related to it on social media. They are only allowed to share approved pictures.

Melissa and Joe Gorga are renovating their new home in Franklin Lakes because they received criticism from fans on social media. They want to change the outside style of their house to better fit in with their neighbors’ elegant homes.

Denise Richards: RHOBH Return Analysis

by Lara Sophia
written by Lara Sophia

Denise Richards rumored return to RHOBH has the Bravoverse in a tizzy yet there seems to be a very calculated reason for why the former Bond girl is returning to reality TV.

A new report from Radar Online, claims that Denise is only returning to RHOBH because she is desperate for cash.

The 52-year-old was spotted filming for season 13 of RHOBH on Friday, March 24 at one of Kyle Richards‘ infamous dinner parties.

After images and a short clip of the dinner were shared on Instagram Stories, Bravo fans spotted a place tag with the name “Denise” written on it. Denise’s voice could also be heard on a clip from the party that Kyle shared on her Instagram Story. This news elated RHOBH fans, who couldn’t be happier to learn that Denise was filming for the show.

Denise Richards: RHOBH Return Analysis 46

While Denise’s role for the upcoming season is unknown it seems that Denise is hoping to snatch her diamond back in order cash in on a major pay day.

This rumored return by Denise comes almost three years after she left RHOBH over a pay dispute with Bravo.

A source previously told Page Six, that Denise departed RHOBH due to her demanding an “excessive” amount of money to return for season 11. Bravo denied Denise’s request which resulted in her walking away from the show.

“People think that she didn’t want to come back and that it’s because she got ‘mean-girled’ [by other cast members],” the source explained. “The truth is she did want to come back. But [Bravo] didn’t want to pay her what she asked for. It was way out of her pay grade.”

However, this time around Denise is willing to accept a lower offer to return for season 13.

Why? Well, it seems Denise and her husband Aaron Phypers are strapped for cash due to various lawsuits.

According to Radar Online, Phypers was recently sued for over an unpaid $190k loan from November 2019. While Aaron agreed to pay $11k in interest he was allegedly failed to make any payments on the loan.

As AllAboutTRH previously reported, in recent months, Denise has been vocal about her desire to return to RHOBH.

“I definitely would consider it,” Denise said on Sirius XM’s Jeff Lewis Live in February. “They haven’t approached me, though.”

Season 13 of RHOBH is set to star Kyle Richards, Garcelle Beauvais, Sutton Stracke, Dorit Kemsley, Erika Jayne, and Crystal Minkoff. There is also talk of Bravo adding 1-2 new Housewives into the mix but those reports have yet to be confirmed.

RHOBH is expected to return for season 13 in mid-to-late 2023.

Tom Sandoval and Raquel Leviss: Explosive Reunion Sparks Chaos

by Lara Sophia
written by Lara Sophia

Buckle up Bravo fans because the upcoming Pump Rules season ten reunion is going to be one wild ride!

The Pump Rules cast filmed the season ten reunion on Thursday, March 23 in Los Angeles. AllAboutTRH previously broke down everything you needed to know about the Pump Rules reunion last Friday but now some new tea has emerged that needs to be spilled.

While there was plenty of drama for the Pump Rules cast to rehash when they sat down with Andy Cohen to film the season ten reunion, the main focus of the reunion was Tom Sandoval and Raquel Leviss‘ seven month long affair and the 39-year-old’s split with Ariana Madix.

According to a new report, Andy had to physically restrain two Pump Rules cast members when discussing Tom and Raquel’s scandalous affair.

While unclear which two cast members needed to be restrained, TMZ reports it’s “not someone you’d guess.”

However, it has been confirmed that the near brawl did not include Ariana, Raquel, or Tom.

“It was like a nuclear bomb went off in the studio,” the insider shared.

The taping for the season ten Pump Rules reunion lasted five hours however the drama heated up within minutes and “never let up.”

The insider adds that not one Pump Rules cast member took Tom or Raquel’s side including their mentor and boss Lisa Vanderpump.

“The anger towards them is to be expected,” an insider reveals to Page Six. A second source confirms that the claims about the reunion are “accurate.”

During the reunion, Andy peppered Tom and Raquel about their affair. The two explained that they initially hooked up here and there but claim it didn’t turn into a full-blown affair until months later.

The two are reportedly still together however a source tells TMZ it won’t last.

“That relationship is like on an egg timer,” the insider shared. “It’s not gonna last.”

As for Ariana, she cried numerous times during the reunion with a source saying that her tears never became over the top. An insider points out that it’s obvious Ariana has been going to therapy over the whole ordeal.

The same can’t be said for Tom, who was destroyed at the reunion and even had to take a break to escape the heat.

A source tells Deux Moi that Tom was “going hard defending his actions and Raquel.” He tried to “justify” the affair “with the narrative that [he and Ariana] weren’t happy and never had sex.”

During a break from filming the reunion, Tom and Raquel were spotted having a heart-to-heart. The two were smoking and wearing matching all-black outfits.

This was the rumored couple’s first sighting together since the news of their affair broke earlier this month after Ariana dumped Tom and ended their nine year relationship.

Pump Rules airs on Wednesdays at 9 pm on Bravo.

Candiace Dillard’s Relationship with ‘Demon’ RHOP Co-star Gizelle Bryant

by Lara Sophia
written by Lara Sophia

Candiace Dillard shares where she stands with Real Housewives of Potomac co-star Gizelle Bryant after filming season 3 of RHUGT.

The Bravolebs filmed season 3 of RHUGT after enduring a difficult and drama filled season of RHOP months prior that left their once strong friendship shattered to pieces.

It’s safe to say Canidace wasn’t excited going into filming season 3 of RHUGT with Gizelle. In fact, the singer says it she went to hell and back while filming the Real Housewives spinoff show last summer.

“I’m around all these new girls. The one girl that I know really well is a demon, so, like, who are my friends? I felt just alone,” Candiace teases on Page Six’s Virtual Reali-Tea podcast, noting that she had “bad anxiety” about traveling across the world to Phuket, Thailand.

The 37-year-old admitted that she was nervous about opening up to her fellow RHUGT co-stars, which included Alexia Nepola, Marysol Patton, Heather Gay, Whitney Rose, Leah McSweeney, and Porsha Williams, about her issues with Gizelle.

“It didn’t feel appropriate to talk about in front of strangers, so I was just in my room,” the singer explains. “My mom [Dorothy Dillard] was checking in on me every morning, like, ‘How are you doing? It’s gonna be fine, you’re gonna be great.’” 

Candiace was thankful she had her mom to confide in because she didn’t think Gizelle would be able to be there for her during her time of distress.

“You can’t expect humanity from just a rock,” she adds. “Rocks don’t have feelings.”

Eventually, Candiace was able to bond with a majority of the RHUGT ladies and build particularly close friendship with Real Housewives of New York alum Leah McSweeney.

In the early days of the trip Candiace was dealing with feelings of isolation and was also still recovering from a heated fight with her husband Chris Bassett that happened just hours before she left for Thailand.

“I was still dealing with a lot of feelings about Chris and I not speaking and having literally gotten into a huge argument five minutes before going to get in my car and go to the airport and not being able to resolve it,” she admits.

She notes that she is now in a “great place” with Chris. The RHOP couple wed in 2018, with Candiace adding that she is still “obsessed” with her husband.

“Then there are things happening in my family that I can’t talk about that were affecting me, too,” she teases. “And then hearing everybody else tell their personal stories and then talk about their families and what they had gone through, it was just a wave of emotion washing over me.”

Notably, Chris and Candiace had a very difficult season of RHOP but the Housewife insists she’s let go of any anger felt while filming the RHOP season 7 reunion.

At the reunion, the RHOP couple confronted Gizelle amid her claims that Chris made her “completely uncomfortable” during a one on one conversation after the RHOP season 6 reunion.

Both denied Gizelle’s claims with Candiace in particularly going to bat to support her husband’s character.

“Both Chris and I … left the reunion feeling like we left everything on the couches. And I was really proud of Chris because I think he emoted well and I was happy that he finally got to speak on the stage where everybody’s eyes and ears are open,” she explains. “And we left everything there.”

RHOP is expected to return for season 8 in late 2023 or early 2024.

Season 3 of RHUGT is currently airing on Peacock. New episodes drop every Thursday.

RHONJ: The Gorgas and Wakiles to be Neighbors As Kathy and Rich Are Building a New Home on the Same Street As Joe and Melissa’s Recent Build

by Lara Sophia
written by Lara Sophia

Just when you think it couldn’t get any crazier in RHONJ universe – it does! It looks like the Wakiles and the Gorgas will be neighbors very soon

Let’s breakdown what we know!

On Saturday, RHONJ alums Kathy and Richards Wakile revealed that they bought a property in Franklin Lakes, New Jersey to build their next house on.

According to the former Bravoleb’s realtor, the property is “nearly 2 acres with 300 feet of lakefront property.”

The realtor added: “After enduring a barrage of offers, the Wakiles can now start on their newest project called home!”

The couple then shared an update with their followers on their Instagram Stories.

“@Kathywakile & I can’t wait to share our next project with you all!” Rich wrote along with a photo of the already started construction. “Kathy is the designer & decorator always.”

Kathy reposted Rich’s story adding, ” Excited to get started @richardwakile. It was love at first sight before it was even for sale.”

This news comes just months after the RHONJ alums sold their previous Franklin Lakes home. The two sold their longtime Franklin Lakes mansion in November 2022 for $3.65M after building the 7,529 sq ft home in 2016.

AllAboutTRH was interested in learning more about Kathy and Rich’s new home so we did a little digging and found some very interesting tea.

Kathy and Rich’s new home is just doors away from Melissa and Joe Gorga‘s new home. In fact, the two families will be living on the very same street!

In February, the Wakiles purchased 267 Indian Trail Dr in Franklin Lakes for $2.6M while the Gorgas purchased their property located at 300 Indian Trail Dr in April of 2021 for $950k. The Gorgas knocked down the house on the property and built their dream home from the ground up. After nearly two years of building, the couple moved into their new home in late 2022. Looks like the Wakiles plan to do something similar except it’s unclear if there was an existing home on the land they purchased.

RHONJ: The Gorgas and Wakiles to be Neighbors As Kathy and Rich Are Building a New Home on the Same Street As Joe and Melissa's Recent Build 71

We have so many questions about the Wakiles decision to build a house so close to the Gorgas when they aren’t exactly on good terms.

There’s been bad blood between the family’s since the Wakiles exited RHONJ.

The Gorgas and the Wakiles both joined RHONJ during season three. Both joined the show behind the back of Teresa Giudice, who starred on the show since its premiere in 2009.

While Melissa and Joe remain on the show, the Wakiles were kicked to the curb by Bravo after season 5. Kathy did appear on seasons 6 and 7 as a friend of the Housewives.

For years, Melissa claimed that her and Joe’s relationship with the Wakiles ended because “they are a little sour about not being on the show any longer.”

However, in February 2023, Melissa claimed that she and Joe cut Kathy and Rich out of their lives to keep the peace with Teresa and now regret the decision.

“I think we do regret pulling away from Kathy and Rosie. Joe always thinks about that as well. I think he did that for her when she got out of prison and she thought that was her next step and he wanted to please her, but you can see him in that scene. He was very uncomfortable and it’s the only family he has and we love Kathy and Rosie and I’m sad that we don’t have them,” Melissa said on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen.

Yet, Kathy doesn’t seem to feel the same way. Just days after Melissa’s claims on WWHL, Kathy shared her feelings in a comment on Instagram.

Kathy explained that she’s not going to pretend or rehearse a storyline to be on RHONJ. She also threw shade at certain people getting “caught up” in the fame.

See what else Kathy had to say below!

RHONJ airs on Tuesdays at 9 pm on Bravo.

Thoughts on this news? Do you think it’s odd Kathy and Rich bought a property so close to Joe and Melissa? Would you like to see the Wakiles back on RHONJ? Sound off below!

Kathy and Rich Wakile revealed that they bought a property in Franklin Lakes, New Jersey to build their next house on. The property is nearly 2 acres with 300 feet of lakefront property.

The Wakiles’ new home will be just doors away from Melissa and Joe Gorga’s new home. In fact, the two families will be living on the very same street.

The Wakiles and the Gorgas joined RHONJ during season three, behind the back of Teresa Giudice who had been on the show since its premiere. While Melissa and Joe Gorga remain on the show, the Wakiles were kicked off after season 5. There has been bad blood between the families since the Wakiles exited the show.
