Teresa Giudice applauded Melissa Gorga as beautiful at BravoCon, just weeks after reuniting with her and her brother, Joe Gorga.
As she reflected on the emotional meeting between them, which also included her husband,
“When asked who looks beautiful at reunions, Teresa said her ‘sister-in-law, Melissa,’” Us Weekly revealed on its Instagram page on November 14.
Around the same time, Bye Wig Hello Drama offered an update on X, where it shared what Teresa revealed about her reunion with Joe.
“Teresa Giudice said that when she reunited with her brother Joe Gorga, he was happy to see her and she felt the same. They met at the mausoleum where their parents are laid to rest, and Joe had tears in his eyes. Teresa says she is grateful and happy about their reunion,” it wrote.
Meanwhile, days after it was revealed that Joe and Gia Giudice, 24, had re-followed one another on Instagram, a November 14 post from Bravo Snark Side confirmed that Joe and Luis were following each other, as well.

“Teresa and Luis are being kept in a separate hotel from the rest of the RHONJ cast,” an insider told Radar Online on November 14. “Regardless of the reunion between her and Joe/Melissa Gorga, tensions are still present, especially since Teresa doesn’t have a relationship with some of her other past castmates still.”
According to the report, there were “some concerns” about the cast being around Luis due to “tensions and issues they’ve had with him in the past.”
“Given a fight that occurred years ago between Jennifer Aydin and Joe Gorga at BravoCon in a hotel lobby in 2022, Bravo doesn’t want any similar situations to occur and thinks it’s best to keep those having tension apart,” the source explained.
Meanwhile, another source insisted the situation wasn’t unique to Teresa and Luis.
“A lot of talent are staying where Teresa and Luis are, as well as other hotels around the city,” the insider shared. “It’s [a] total preference.”

During the episode, after being asked whose departure would make her consider rejoining RHOBH, Garcelle replied, “That’s a very good question. [
Also in October, during an interview with The Breakfast Club, Garcelle labeled Erika and Bozoma “Boz” Saint John, 48, as “mean girls” for their shady reaction to her exit from the show.
Also on the talk show, Garcelle explained why she left RHOBH to begin with.
“I just couldn’t do it anymore. It was really hurting my spirit … I couldn’t physically, spiritually, mentally, do it anymore,” she shared. “I’ve been really great about choosing me when I’m faced with something. I’ve done it with relationships. I’ve done it in other places where I’ve felt like, ‘If I don’t choose me, it will probably not work out for me.’ So I have faith, and I just knew it was time.”
