Teresa Giudice‘s long-standing feud with her brother, Joe Gorga, and his wife, Melissa Gorga, has taken a toll on their children’s relationships. The drama between the stars of <em>The Real Housewives of New Jersey</em> has been ongoing for years, particularly since the Gorga family joined the cast in Season 3. Tensions escalated as Giudice clashed with her brother and her ex-husband, Joe Giudice, leading to a physical altercation involving Gorga on the show. A heartfelt moment arose when Giudice’s daughter, Gia Giudice, performed a song about family, prompting her mother and uncle to mend their differences temporarily. However, the family feud reignited in Season 13 when the Gorgas chose not to attend Giudice’s wedding to Luis Ruelas, further deepening the rift.
Currently, both Giudice and Melissa have publicly stated their unwillingness to restore their relationship, emphasizing that they will not compromise. This ongoing conflict has unfortunately resulted in Giudice?s daughters and the Gorgas’ three children becoming estranged. Once close cousins, they reportedly are no longer in contact. In a recent episode of Bonded by Bravo, Giudice revealed that her four daughters have been trying to connect with their cousins but have faced a lack of response from the Gorgas. Despite this, she insists that the estrangement is not a reflection of her daughters’ actions.
