Gia Giudice addressed her current relationship with Joe and Melissa Gorga on a recent episode of her podcast.
Following the meeting between the Gorgas and her mom, Teresa Giudice, 53, and her stepfather, Luis Ruelas, 50, and after re-following Joe, 51, on Instagram, the 24-year-old Real Housewives of New Jersey star spoke of her and her family’s relationships with the Gorgas. She also addressed her potential reconciliation with her cousins.
“There’s nothing right now [between us and the Gorgas], but hopefully we can come to a peaceful place soon,” Gia explained to a fan on Casual Chaos, via a clip shared by Virtual Reali-Tea on Instagram.
Another fan wanted to know if Gia and her sisters were able to talk to or see their Gorga cousins at all.
“Not really,” she replied. “Unfortunately, with the show, it became very toxic, so it just got a little difficult for the kids to maintain a relationship, which is very unfortunate. But if we do come to a place of peace, there’s definitely room to grow and maybe build the relationships again.”
At another moment of the podcast, Gia explained why she turned down a role on Love Island USA on multiple occasions.
“I got asked to go on Love Island like, year after year, and I turned that down, obviously, because I’m dating my boyfriend, [Christian Carmichael]. But, yeah. I’ve got asked to go on Love Island USA. It was a lot during when I was in college, but it was pretty consecutive when I was in college,” she shared, also via Virtual Reali-Tea on Instagram.
Then, she explained how Christian felt about filming Next Gen NYC.
“He actually liked being on Next Gen NYC. I mean, he didn’t mind it, but also, like, this is not his world,” she stated. “This is not something that he’s used to, and it was definitely a little bit of an adjustment.”
Next Gen NYC season two is currently in production and expected to begin airing on Bravo sometime next year.
The boathouse doors may be closed, but the drama in the Hamptons is just heating up. For months, Kyle Cooke and Amanda Batula, the founding couple of Bravo’s Summer House, have attempted to control the narrative surrounding their relationship woes, publicly calling their struggles a “challenging time” and “the normal ups and downs of marriage.”
However, those carefully crafted statements have now spectacularly CRUMBLED. Multiple authoritative sources have confirmed exclusively that the separation between the Loverboy founders is FINAL, and the subsequent divorce process is being dramatically expedited due to a massive, undisclosed financial dispute.
While Kyle and Amanda have consistently presented a united front, promoting their beverage brand, sources close to the couple reveal the split has been inevitable for nearly a year. The repeated on-screen fights and off-screen tension—often centered around Kyle’s partying and the couple’s conflicting views on work-life balance—were merely the tip of the iceberg.
One insider close to the Summer House production spilled: “They were living separate lives, even when they were in the same room. The ‘challenging time’ was PR spin. They have been functionally separated for months, but they needed to maintain the façade for Loverboy events and filming commitments. The lies are finally over.”
The source confirms that the final decision to end the marriage came after a particularly “toxic and irreparable” argument last month, leaving no path for reconciliation.
The real explosive element, however, is the alleged massive financial dispute that is fueling the rush to finalize the divorce. According to multiple insiders, the disagreement centers on the valuation and future ownership of their shared business, Loverboy.
“This isn’t just about dividing assets; this is a high-stakes business battle,” a financial source explained. “Amanda has always been instrumental in the creative and design aspects of the brand, while Kyle is the face and the primary founder. The conflict over who retains what percentage of the company, and the financial liability associated with it, is turning the divorce into a legal war zone.”
The source suggests that the dispute is so intense, lawyers have pushed for an expedited settlement to prevent the public spat from negatively impacting the company’s crucial end-of-year sales and future investor relations.
The pressure to finalize the divorce settlement quickly hints at the severity of the financial disagreement. Sources claim that both parties are aggressively pursuing ownership stakes, with the stakes far exceeding the value of their Hamptons home.
Another source confirmed the urgent nature of the split: “They want this settled and signed before the new year. It’s about damage control for the brand, not emotional closure. They realized their personal toxicity was threatening their mutual financial empire. Now, it’s a race to see who walks away with the biggest piece.”
As the camera crews prepare for the next season of Summer House, fans should prepare for an entirely different kind of heat wave: a divorce battle that promises to be the most financially devastating in Bravo history.
