Melissa Gorga is reaching into the Bravo vault—and dragging again names who haven’t been on the Actual Housewives of New Jersey in years. In her newest podcast episode of On Show, Gorga brings husband Joe Gorga on as a visitor, the place the 2 dig into outdated wounds involving former castmates Kathy Wakile and Jacqueline Laurita.
With little prompting, Gorga launches right into a tirade that appears aimed extra at defending her personal narrative than revisiting actuality. Talking in regards to the interval when Teresa Giudice was launched from jail, Melissa remembers a non-public dialog she allegedly had with Kathy and Jacqueline:
“I’m simply going to go forward and say this as a result of now I don’t give a shit about anybody, about something, not simply Kathy, anybody. I don’t give a shit. Like, I don’t care.
The reality is, and I’ve individuals to vouch as a result of they had been sitting within the room, like Jacqueline Laurita and Kathy Wakile had been pissed when Teresa got here dwelling from jail and I instructed them each, I sat them each down and instructed them, this has nothing to do with both of you. I’m nonetheless going to be buddies with you. I’m not going to name you two out on something.
I’m not, this isn’t going to alter our relationship, however I’m letting that I’m letting my sister-in-law again in. I’m going to attempt to rekindle my relationship with my sister-in-law. Now’s the time, she’s hit the bottom of the low.”
What Melissa fails to handle, nonetheless, is why Jacqueline and Kathy allegedly felt comfy sufficient to have these conversations along with her within the first place—conversations about Teresa that she appears conveniently indifferent from now.
Including gasoline to the fireplace, Gorga then goes after Laurita for discussing her RHONJ expertise in podcast interviews:
“Jacqueline Laurita used to try this shit too.
She was happening podcasts simply to bash me.
No one cares, bro. No one cares.
Everybody has an opinion, and you can hate me, the subsequent one loves me, the subsequent one can hate me, this one loves you. Who offers a fuck what anybody says anymore? It’s like these individuals suppose they’re altering the universe.
They’re like, I’m going to say this about her.
Oh, okay. That’s going to simply change everybody’s minds.”
Apparently, Melissa Gorga has appeared on 43 podcast episodes up to now eight months alone, not together with her personal podcast. For somebody who claims “no one cares” and dismisses podcasting as performative, she’s definitely logged the hours.
Now, Jacqueline Laurita is responding—and she or he’s not holding again. Talking to AllAboutTRH solely, Jacqueline Laurita set the file straight:
“Thanks AATRH for bringing this to my consideration, in any other case I by no means see or hear about that miniature couple anymore. They don’t seem to be even in my universe. They’re so uninteresting to me.
I truly can’t consider she continues to be speaking about this. It’s been such a very long time. Nevertheless, Melissa has at all times been apprehensive about how others will view her and she or he’s at all times tried to shift the narrative in her favor. Any individual ought to let her know that it’s not going to alter the universe saying all of those lies in an try and save herself. Not sufficient individuals care.
The reality is…Joe and Melissa hated Teresa. That’s why they known as her out on Nationwide TV many occasions. That’s why they instructed me and everybody else behind the scenes, all of Teresa’s personal issues. I wouldn’t have identified something if it wasn’t for them.
Melissa is the one which instructed me Teresa’s letters out of jail for “new beginnings” had been pretend, initiated by her lawyer they shared, and that she actually hated me. Joe instructed me she was worse than earlier than, so after all I wasn’t thrilled to be filming along with her once more. They weren’t both. However then Teresa was good to me. It was a bit complicated.
Joe and Melissa by no means sat me down to inform me any of the stuff you (AATRH) instructed me Melissa is saying now. I’m the one which instructed THEM to pretend it till they make it with Teresa. I knew the entire time behind the scenes they hated Teresa and vice versa. I wasn’t jealous or apprehensive in any respect at ANY time. I used to be the one advising them to pretend it for household sake. Melissa was the one jealous and apprehensive about how simply Teresa and I made up.
She would have quite had me because the one combating with Teresa on digicam. Melissa even stated on digicam in a scene on our Vermont journey that she couldn’t consider how simply we made up when it’s been so exhausting for her.
Melissa is the one who would inform me on a regular basis that Teresa was being pretend to me and to not belief it. That’s why it was SO annoying and hurtful to me how Melissa talked to Teresa about me and got here at me on digicam after every little thing she was saying to me about Teresa behind the scenes. It was so calculated for the viewers. She wasn’t a real good friend in any respect.
Melissa at all times instructed Joe to convey issues up on digicam about his sister as a result of she stated she would look unhealthy if she did it. She put lots of strain on him.
I’m simply disgusted with all of her lies.
She ought to simply transfer on along with her life. If she didn’t maintain speaking about us, we wouldn’t really feel compelled to reply on a podcast or anyplace else when individuals or interviewers ask us questions on her or about one thing she stated. That is all simply nonsense. I’m going to return to placing aquaphor on my face.Did you must see how pure and fantastically my face is therapeutic now from my facelift, neck raise and CO2 laser after Dr. Steven Ip in Newport Seashore, CA did his magic? I really feel implausible! Verify him out! I extremely advocate him. Thanks for the chance to plug this! ?

On the finish of the day, if Melissa Gorga actually believes nobody cares about what’s being stated on podcasts, maybe she ought to begin by unsubscribing from her personal—as a result of if there’s one factor extra clear than a CO2 laser remedy, it’s selective outrage.
