Melissa reveals to HollywoodLife.com exclusively that ‘RHONJ’ fans may see her and Teresa working through their issues in season four.
Could the division between the stars of The Real Housewives of New Jersey finally be coming to an end? Melissa Gorga told HollywoodLife.com she’s trying to rekindle her relationship with sister-in-law Teresa Giudice, who Melissa hasn’t seen since last season’s renion special.
“I’m actually going to [Teresa's daughters] Gia and Milania’s birthday party on Saturday [Jan. 28],” Melissa told us Jan. 24 at the NYC premiere of One for the Money. “This will be the first time that we get together [since] the reunion. She’s been with Apprentice, and I’ve been doing a lot of appearances promoting my single, so we’ve both been really busy.”
Melissa said she’s really making an effort to put the past behind her.
“I honestly have tried everything I can to mend the relationship between Teresa and her brother,” she said. “I think a lot of people were very confused and thought it was between Teresa and me, but a lot of it does stand between a brother and sister. Somehow I get caught in the middle.”
Next season, fans will get to watch Melissa and Teresa try to make up.
“On season four, you are going to see me really do everything in my power to make it better,” Melissa revealed. “I might get slapped in my face, I might not. You have to watch and see, but I can put my head on my pillow at night.”
Melissa will even be watching Teresa compete on Celebrity Apprentice!
“Of course I’m going to watch her,” she assured us. “She will fight to the death.”

Melissa is only trying to make up with her because Teresa is going to be on the Apprentice. She knows that Teresa will be more popular after.
I don’t like Melissa and I hated how all of the women ganged up on Teresa at the reunion (they just finished playing season 3 in Australia)
LOL

“Somehow I get caught in the middle.” LOL, Teresa’s S-I-L is the cause of the drama!
She implies this about Kathy and Teresa too. Meanwhile, saw her stirring the stew, when all Teresa did was admit (after being baited by Melissa) to Kathy’s husband giving her a hard time and then lyinh to Kathy saying things like, “Teresa said your husband wants to sleep with her.” She is a fake, selfish, manipulative person.

Everything that comes out of her mouth is a lie. She disgusts me.

Melissa is such a liar! She has no fan base because of her lies and bashing of Teresa. Now she wants to change up to try and get people hooked in. Remember the last reunion? If she wasn’t the problem then why was Teresa so attacked? It didn’t look like it was all fixed and Season 4 was finished the night before Remember? Melissa sure didn’t act like she was friends with Teresa. Melissa, you married Joey for his money and fame not for love and we all see that!

Melissa wouldn’t even do interview with Ilana Angel (JEWISH JOURNAL) because she stated it was to close to Teresa’s interview? Garbage! Then bailed twice on Ilana. Ilana writes about the person and not the show. She does an excellent job and Melissa is afraid of her true self coming out! If nothing to hide about yourself she should have done it! Melissa loves to have the control over Joey and only wants him to be close to her trashy sisters. People can have a relationship (GOOD ONES) with both sides of their extended family’s. I believe Melissa did nothing to make Joey and Teresa’s relationship better, but just feeds on anything negative with them!

Do you really believe what you wrote? Remember, Melissa and Joe did not attend Gabriella’s birthday party or spend the holidays with Teresa and her family. Why the change of heart? ANSWER: The only reason this backstabbing stripper wants to get together with Teresa is beacause of all the negative comments she is receiving.
Melissa and Joe need to take accountability for their actions against their family. Only then Teresa should forgive her and her brother.

Too funny. Um, maybe she should have kept away from her sister in law’s work (the show), that would have been a good way to mend all. Melissa, Theres awas on the show first. Get it, Got it, Godd. End of discussion

I only hope that this time will be the first time you are telling the truth.
