The last Real Housewives of New Jersey was electric. The cast was perfect, so it makes sense that they didn’t make any changes for Season 10.
However, if Joe Gorga got his way they would make one major change. He wants an original Real Housewives of New Jersey cast member to be a full-time Housewife. And, no, he’s not talking about Danielle Staub. He’s rooting for a different RHONJ OG to make a comeback.
The last season of Real Housewives of New Jersey was nothing short of epic. It was the best season of the show that we’ve seen in years. They finally got the casting right. There was not one filler episode. Love them or hate them, every cast member brought something valuable to the table.
Teressa Giudice and Melissa Gorga revived their family feud. Dolores Catania and Margaret Josephs became friends. Jennifer Aydin bragged about her house and broke a wine glass to make a shiv. Jackie Goldschneider went out of her way to challenge Teresa. Even Friend of the Housewives Danielle Staub brought a ton of drama with her bridezilla behavior. So are they keeping the cast the same for Season 10? Will Danielle be full-time? Inquiring minds want to know.
The last Real Housewives of New Jersey season felt like we stepped back in time. After finally making amends, sisters-in-law Melissa Gorga and Teresa Giudice had tension all season long. They even went at it during the reunion, just like old times! Caught in the middle was Melissa’s husband and Teresa’s brother Joe Gorga. All he wants is for the two women in his life to get along.
Will that ever actually happen though? Drama with Teresa and Melissa almost always results in drama between Teresa and her brother, or vice versa depending on whose version of the story you buy. So what’s going on with the trio these days? How are they handling Joe Giudice’s impending deportation to Italy? Melissa recently opened up about the situation.
In some shocking/not at all shocking news, Teresa Giudice admitted that she would divorce Joe Giudice during the last Real Housewives of New Jersey reunion. Even after they made it through their his and hers prison sentences, the possible deportation to Italy is the last straw. Apparently.
Unfortunately, that reunion was filmed before those photos surface of Teresa holding hands with a 26-year-old guy in Miami. During that same reunion, Teresa said she was faithful to her man. Right. She just held his hand because she needed help getting to the car. Now, Teresa’s longtime friend and fellow “old school Italian” Dolores Catania is weighing in on her comments.
Anyone who watched Jersey Shore: Family Vacation can see that Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino has truly changed for the better. He was completely sober. He was completely faithful to his now-wife Lauren Sorrentino. He really was a completely different person than the guy we met during Jersey Shore’s initial run.
Even the abs were gone. Instead of drugs and alcohol, The Situation turned to pasta and funfetti cake for comfort. He truly seemed like a kinder, gentler soul. Nevertheless, he did the crime and now he’s doing the time. And it’s not like he’s the only reality star with tax issues. Teresa Giudice, Joe Giudice, and Abby Lee Miller have served jail time for similar offenses. But, apparently, he’s having a great time behind bars. Or at least he is according to Snooki.
Is it even a Real Housewives of New Jersey season if the cast doesn’t celebrate Melissa Gorga’s birthday? Her birthday has brought us some major episodes over the years. No one can ever forget Melissa and Teresa Giudice throwing cake during the cast trip in Boca.
Last year, we met Jackie Goldschneider and Jennifer Aydin at Melissa’s party. This year, Melissa is finally hitting the big 4-0. Of course, they’re going all out for a celebration.
In more serious developments, Teresa revealed at the reunion that if her husband, Joe Giudice, is deported to Italy, that they will divorce. Joe finished serving his prison sentence and was transferred to ICE custody on March 14, 2019. He is waiting to hear the results of his appeal. And Teresa has been spending some quality time with a much-younger man, and possible boyfriend, Blake Schreck. Teresa denies that they are dating. Apparently, they just enjoy holding hands in public.
Real Housewives of New Jersey fans should admire Danielle Staub’s hustle. Her fiasco wedding to Marty Caffrey was filmed for Season 9, even though Danielle was once again only a Friend of The Housewives. Jersey girls Teresa Giudice, Margaret Josephs, and Melissa Gorga were part of the bridal party, and witnesses to Danielle’s bridezilla demands.
The doomed wedding was quickly followed by an acrimonious divorce, which was finally settled in February of 2019. In what seems like record time, Danielle was not only dating, but back in a serious relationship. Maybe now Danielle can be upgraded to full-time Housewife?
