“We wrapped it with a bang,” Gorga said. “I had so much fun this season.” She also praised the cast and their dynamic during filming. According to Gorga, the group delivered plenty of entertaining moments.
However, the season was not without difficult moments. “I feel like there was a lot of stress,” Gorga admitted. She said the tension helped reveal the cast’s “real personalities.” Gorga also compared the experience to the show’s earlier seasons.
The reality star said filming reminded her of the early days of RHONJ. She recalled when the cast could have fun and act goofy together. Her comments suggested Season 15 could balance drama with lighter moments.

Gorga also said their renewed relationship made filming feel safer. “Obviously, Teresa and I are getting along,” Gorga told PEOPLE. She added that they appreciated fans supporting their reconciliation.
After a long break, RHONJ is finally returning with a changed cast. Gorga’s comments suggest viewers can expect a season filled with both emotional moments and drama.
