Teresa Giudice, Gorga feud behind BravoCon split: Andy Cohen

Andy Cohen confirmed that the “Real Housewives of New Jersey” panel at BravoCon 2022 had to be split in two due to Teresa Giudice’s disagreement with Joe Gorga and Melissa Gorga.

“They’re really not in the right place as you might have guessed,” Cohen told attendees on Sunday during the “Ask Andy” section of the three-day convention in New York City.

The 54-year-old host of Watch What Happens Live noted that viewers of RHONJ last saw Giudice, 50, Joe, 48, and Melissa, 43, in a good spot, but because they had another foray during the filming of the upcoming 13. Season the network decided not to break too much at BravoCon.

“We’re on the chasm before the really great New Jersey broadcast season, so we’re in a real abyss where if we put them all together, they’re in a different place than they used to be. last time we saw them all as a group, ”he said.

“I think it’s better to let the show live and let you see the show and meet everyone at the next reunion concert,” continued Cohen. “It’s balancing because you want things to play out on TV, but here we are and I want everyone to have fun, so it’s a bit of juggling.”

Page Six revealed news in August that Giudice is no longer talking to his brother and sister-in-law after a scuffle broke out during the recording of the Season 13 Finale.

As a result of the outburst, Joe and Melissa decided not to attend their sister’s wedding to Luis “Louie” Ruelas.

Sources later told us only that the unsubstantiated rumors of Melissa’s cheating on Joe with actor Nick Barrotta were the impetus for a family quarrel.

Page Six’s Evan Real hosted the first “RHONJ” panel at BravoCon on Saturday, attended by Gorgas, Margaret Josephs and her husband Joe Benigno, and Jackie Goldschneider and her husband Evan Goldschneider.

The second panel, later Saturday, consisted of Giudice and Ruelas (47) as well as Jennifer Aydin and her husband Bill Aydin, and Dolores Catania and her ex-husband Frank Catania.

On stage, Joe made a wild tirade about his family and that Giudice never wanted him and Melissa to be on the show.

Meanwhile, Giudice blamed “fame and money” for tearing them all to shreds.
