Teresa Giudice Doubles Down on Pledge That She’ll Never Film ‘The Real Housewives of New Jersey’ With Melissa Gorga Again
The Real Housewives of New Jersey fans have spent the last few seasons complaining that the show has crossed the line from dramatic to toxic. Things have only gotten worse during the most recent season. The cast has gotten so ugly with each other that recasting rumors have been swirling. Now that the season finale is over, recasting the show entirely looks increasingly likely. Despite Teresa Giudice and Melissa Gorga being largely to blame for the fractured and painful season, neither Giudice nor Gorga is willing to take responsibility. In fact, Giudice is doubling down on her insistence that she’s unwilling to mend fences and film with her sister-in-law ever again.

Teresa Giudice won’t film with her sister-in-law ever again
The last remaining original RHONJ cast member, Teresa Giudice, is be hopeful that Bravo will keep her on the payroll. Still, it doesn’t sound like she will be willing to film with her sister-in-law again, even to keep her job. Just days before the explosive season 14 finale aired, Teresa Giudice appeared on Let’s Talk Off Camera with Kelly Ripa; Melissa Gorga came up in conversation.
During the chat, Ripa asked Giudice if she would film with Gorga again. Giudice was resolute. She doubled down on what she previously said. She told the TV personality, “Never again!” Giudice suggested she can’t forgive the Gorgas for “going against the family.” She’s also discussed the issue on Live with Kelly and Mark.
Teresa Giudice told Ripa that most of the drama started years ago. She attributed it to jealousy over her landing on the Bravo series. Giudice was cast for the inaugural season of The Real Housewives of New Jersey. Gorga joined the cast in season 3. Giudice insisted she only made peace with her brother and sister-in-law after previous fallings-out to appease her parents.
When did Teresa Giudice and Melissa Gorga’s feud begin?
From early on, tensions were high between Giudice and her sister-in-law and brother. Teresa’s brother, Joe Gorga, has always played things a bit more dramatic than necessary. His wife often backed him, and Giudice has talked terribly about them. While the family members frequently feuded, things got exponentially worse after Antonia and Giacinto Gorga’s deaths in 2017 and 2020, respectively. Giudice and the Gorgas have gotten progressively nastier without their family matriarch and patriarch to keep the siblings and their partners in line.

During the season 13 reunion special, Giudice vowed never to film with her brother and sister-in-law again. While fans of the series believed Giudice was bluffing, she was not. She refused to film with Gorga all through season 14 and still refuses to change her stance. It might be a moot point if rumors that The Real Housewives installment will be recast are true.
