Melissa Gorga's Son Gino Looked So Dapper for Junior Prom: "These Are the Best Times" (PHOTOS)

   

The Real Housewives of New Jersey mom celebrated a milestone moment in her middle child's high school journey. 

Melissa Gorga’s son, Gino Gorga, just attended his junior prom, and we have all the sweet photos from the occasion. 

On April 10, The Real Housewives of New Jersey cast member and mom of three kids — Antonia, Gino, and Joey Gorga, hopped on her Instagram page to share a carousel of photos of Gino before his prom. "My handsome [Gino] went to junior prom tonight. Have a blast my son! These are the best times of life!" 

Gino indeed looked so handsome in his dapper black tuxedo, white button-down shirt, and bow tie which he paired with patent leather brogues. Gino also posed with his date in the photos along with Melissa and his dad, Joe Gorga. 

Additionally, Melissa took to her Instagram Stories to share more behind-the-scenes action, showing Gino's date pinning a boutonnière on his lapel in one snap. Another photo showed how all of the teens posed on the staircase before the dance, looking glammed up for the occasion.

Dolores Catania added her thoughts in the comments section of Melissa's post, writing, "He's a man !!! So handsome. [A]ll grown up." Margaret Josephs also shared her two cents, commenting, "So handsome," while Gino's older sister sweetly wrote, "AWE." 

Melissa Gorga shares a sweet tribute to Gino for his 17th birthday 

In addition to his junior prom, Gino has hit other major milestones over the past year.

In September 2024, Melissa celebrated Gino's 17th birthday with a heartfelt Instagram post. She shared the sweetest message in his honor, along with a video featuring photos of Gino throughout his life.

"The list could go on forever about your incredible traits," Melissa wrote in the caption of the tender post. "You've always been the most responsible kid in the room, the most respectful, and the one who is always going to try harder and reach for the stars. Your athleticism and kindness make you a star. You may be shy but your ambition lights up a room. We all know you can stop working by the time you turn 30. Happy birthday! We love you so much!"

In the videos Melissa shared, Gino is shown as a young kid eating pasta, lifting weights, and playing football. Much like in his mom’s tribute, the clips highlight how Gino grew up on camera, as he was only four years old when Melissa joined RHONJ in Season 3.
