BravoCon 2025 has done what many thought was impossible.
The feud between Teresa Giudice and her brother Joe Gorga, along with his wife Melissa, is one that has been documented throughout numerous seasons of “The Real Housewives of New Jersey.” And it continued to escalate during season 14 when Joe and Melissa cut off all communication with Teresa and her husband, Luis Ruelas.
But a video captured at BravoCon in Las Vegas showed Joe sharing a big hug with Teresa and Luis, making it clear that they have taken a step forward in reconciling.
Teresa Giudice Says Things Are ‘In a Good Place’ With Her Brother
During the Reunion Round-Up panel at BravoCon 2025 on Friday, Nov. 14, Teresa provided an update as to where she stands with Joe as the two were not on speaking terms up until recently.
“So things are, you know, in a good place,” she said. “I talked to my brother, first — because I thought that was only right — he was like, really happy to see me. I was happy to see him.”
Teresa went on to say that the two met up at the cemetery where Teresa and Joe’s late parents, Antonia and Giacinto Gorga, are buried.
“At first, he didn’t want to meet there, he said, ‘That’s weird.’ I’m like, ‘No, it’s not weird.’ Because I didn’t want anybody to take photos of us or anything like that,” she added. “If you’re there, it’s peaceful. So if you want to get mad, you can’t. Not that we did.”
In an interview Teresa did with The Real Housewives of Dubai‘s Chanel Ayan, she also briefly spoke about it, saying that they are taking “baby steps.”
How Does Melissa Gorga Feel About Reconciling With Teresa Giudice
Melissa spoke with Extra at BravoCon 2025 about her and her husband reconciling with Teresa.
“We are in a different place we than we were a couple months ago,” she said. “Let’s just say that. Everybody’s working on it. We’re working on it. We’re trying to move forward and we’ve, you know, hashed a lot of things out privately without all of this, and I think that’s a good thing.”
“We just want to fix it, and we want to get back together, and for the kids, you know, we have little kids that are, you know, teenagers too that are watching this and behavior repeats itself,” she added. “And that’s never what I want to see happen.”
