Did Melissa & Joe Gorga Defy Andy Cohen Over Teresa’s Wedding?! Kim D Drops Bombshell Allegations!
I don’t know if you’ve seen the latest interview with RHONJ alum Kim D., but she’s out here stirring the pot like it’s Thanksgiving dinner. And while she’s giving us all the piping-hot tea.
So let’s get into it. Kim D is alleging that Melissa and Joe Gorga went directly against Andy Cohen’s wishes when they skipped Teresa Giudice and Luis Ruelas’ wedding in August 2022. Allegedly, they already knew Teresa was getting a spinoff, which meant they could finally be done filming with her—and didn’t feel the need to “kiss the ring.”
👀 Um… what?!
📺 Let’s rewind the Bravo tape…
Here’s what’s not adding up for me. I remember that whole season like it was yesterday. And honestly? Even without the spinoff rumors, there was no way the Gorgas were ever showing up to that wedding. The tension was thicker than Tre’s wedding hairspray.
But Kim D insists that Andy Cohen wanted them there. She says he pushed hard for a family front and was not happy they defied him. According to her, that move was a massive Bravo no-no… and could have consequences.
Now, this is where I raise an eyebrow.
💥 And then there’s the next bombshell…
Kim D didn’t stop there. She told Jen Fessler (yes, that Jen Fessler) that she’s got “reliable sources at Bravo” who told her Melissa Gorga tried to pitch a new direction for RHONJ—one that cuts out the “OGs” and focuses on the younger cast members. Think Rachel Fuda, Danielle Cabral… the fresh blood.
Is this true? Maybe. Is it shady? 100%. Is it confirmed? Nope.
Honestly, it feels like another one of those Housewives conspiracy theories that’s just juicy enough to entertain, but not solid enough to believe without a grain (or ten) of salt.
🧠 So what do we think?
Do you believe Melissa and Joe snubbed Teresa and Andy in one bold move?
Do you think Melissa’s trying to stage a RHONJ takeover with younger castmates?
Or is Kim D just giving us her version of Housewives fan fiction?

I absolutely believe this. Andy thinks in og tv terms and trops. He wants a movie-like emmy-worthy moments on camera. He want fights but also reconciliations being filmed. Gorgas going to Teresa’s wedding makes perfect sense for him, because it is a happy ending that is generally satisfying to watch (at least on paper). In reality however Gorgas and Giudices hurt each other way too many times. It is more real for Melissa and Joe to cut ties and do not attend.
As for a newbie spin-off the real question is, did Melissa include herself in there as a newbie? Because that would be funny.
she is a irritating, difficult, pain in the ass 📌🍑
Team Teresa Giudice ❤️💯
