Since Joe Giudice was deported and cast out of the Real Housewives of New Jersey, nothing has been the same. The father of four was TV gold. Between trying his hand at gymnastics but instead chipping his tooth and charging his brother-in-law, Joe Gorga, like a raging bull, Juicy Joe gave viewers a lot to work with. Since moving to the Bahamas, he has stayed relatively quiet. Recently, he decided to speak out about his ex-wife’s brother and his wife, Melissa Gorga.
What did Joe Giudice say about the Gorgas?
Recently, Joe decided to share his laundry list of grievances he has with Joe and Melissa while on the Reality Court podcast. The former New Jersey resident started off strong by saying Joe Gorga was “like a Real Housewife,” noting, “He loves that crap.” There doesn’t seem to be any love lost between these two families, and even though Joe Giudice is thousands of miles away, he is still making his opinion known. Naturally, Juciy Joe was asked if he ever saw a reconciliation in their future. But I think fans can guess the answer.
“I mean, I don’t know,” said Joe. “I don’t know what his problem is. You know that is his only sister. I mean, I don’t know what the hell his deal is.” Naturally, the blame once again fell onto Melissa’s shoulders. Joe said, “I think that his wife, in all honesty, is so jealous of Teresa for whatever reason. And so is [Joe Gorga]. I don’t know why. It’s just weird … I think just, like they’re just such fame wh*res. I don’t even like to get into it cause I don’t even care.” Real Housewives of New Jersey fans will recall that the trouble started way back in Season 3 when the Gorgas were brought onto the show.
Joe Giudice sort of complimented Joe Gorga
Teresa Giudice has always claimed her brother never informed her about being cast, which left a bad taste in her mouth for the rest of the time. As the conversation continued, Joe then insinuated that the Gorgas needed the Bravo franchise because they were finally making “real money.” But even through the heavy shade, Joe Giudice still praised his former brother-in-law. The contractor noted that Joe Gorga was a “hard worker,” saying, “He learned from me.” According to Joe, he “taught him a lot. He’s a hard worker… Until this day, he’s still out there working every day… But is he an assh*le? Yeah,” laughed Joe Giudice.
The two Joes have always had a love/hate relationship. Fans watched as an all-out brawl broke out during Season 3 after Tre claimed her brother was a disappointment. Joe Gorga had enough and clapped back, saying, “I’m not sticking with scum like you.” The harsh words were enough to ignite Joe Giudice, who came back into the room hot as fists started to fly. In later seasons Juicy Joe was caught calling Melissa “raccoon face.” So, it is rich that Joe Giudice thinks he is the perfect guy to give insight into the Gorgas.
Teresa Giudice keeps attacking the Gorgas
In the New Year, Teresa spoke out on the Turning Tables podcast about her brother and sister-in-law, who she cut out of her life over a year ago. The Skinny Italian author wasn’t happy about her brother’s past claims that he helped her out during some hard times. She noted, “I didn’t need him for anything. I did everything on my own. I even gave him [Joe Giudice]’s truck.” The mother of four added, “I gave him Joe’s truck [to repay him for work] he did at my house, and my ex is like, ‘Your brother took the truck?’ … He was so pissed because he’s like, ‘You could’ve sold that truck and kept the money for yourself.’”
According to Tre, “He never gave me anything. He’s never even bought me a birthday gift. Nothing … I mean, after he married Melissa, no, I don’t think so,” she continued. “Before Melissa, he used to buy me birthday gifts, I think. But after Melissa, no … I’ve done everything on my own, which I’m proud of, and my daughters know that too.” One thing is for sure; even though Joe Giudice and Teresa are divorced, they still present a united front when it comes to Gorga’s narrative.
The Real Housewives of New Jersey is available to stream on Peacock.
