The Real Housewives of New Jersey couple spilled all about how they plan to mark Melissa's big day later this month, that is if Joe can get it all together in time.
The couple spoke to Extra where Joe revealed how he's prepping for his wife's upcoming birthday on March 21.
“I'm trying, but I had to let her know, I said, ‘Listen, we're going out to dinner for your birthday. Where do you want to go?’ ’cause she's the one, she changes, she has to be in control, so I'm just like I had to get involved," he said, adding, "When I first met her, I used to be romantic, set all these things up. Now she just gets involved too much.”
What does Melissa Gorga want for her birthday?
It seems like Melissa's looking to get in some quality time for her big day. “I never really asked for gifts. I do like that we have like a group of friends that go out to dinner every year, and I get excited over that. We always have, like, a fun night out. I told Joe, ‘I'm, like, you know, I can't organize the birthday dinner, like, you're going to have to organize that,’ so he's been working on it," she said. “They have to have really good Cosmos or else I don't want to go.”
Joe Gorga opens up about his marriage to Melissa Gorga
Joe has previously taken to Instagram on Melissa's birthday to share how much he loves his wife and share insight into their marriage. In 2024, he wrote, "You’re beautiful, sexy, hot as hell and smart…but what attracts me to you the most is how hard you work and your work ethic! There is nothing hotter than a girl who works her ass off!! You really do age like a fine wine!!! I love you baby."
That same year, timed to Mother's Day a couple months later in May, he added, "Happy Mother’s Day to the most amazing mother and wife a man could ever ask for. You’re a beast. I love you baby."
Even if Joe ends up coming up with some more low-key plans for Melissa's birthday this year, the Gorgas did just party in NYC with Boy George.
