Melissa Gorga is reaching into the Bravo vault—and dragging back names who haven’t been on the Real Housewives of New Jersey in years. In her latest podcast episode of On Display, Gorga brings husband Joe Gorga on as a guest, where the two dig into old wounds involving former castmates Kathy Wakile and Jacqueline Laurita.

EXCLUSIVE: Melissa Gorga Reignites Feud with Jacqueline Laurita; Jacqueline Slams Her “Calculating Lies” and Tells Her To Move On

With little prompting, Gorga launches into a tirade that seems aimed more at defending her own narrative than revisiting reality. Speaking about the period when Teresa Giudice was released from prison, Melissa recalls a private conversation she allegedly had with Kathy and Jacqueline:

“I’m just going to go ahead and say this because now I don’t give a shit about anyone, about anything, not just Kathy, anyone. I don’t give a shit. Like, I don’t care.The truth is, and I have people to vouch because they were sitting in the room, like Jacqueline Laurita and Kathy Wakile were pissed when Teresa came home from jail and I told them both, I sat them both down and told them, this has nothing to do with either of you. I’m still going to be friends with you. I’m not going to call you two out on anything.I’m not, this is not going to change our relationship, but I’m letting you know that I am letting my sister-in-law back in. I am going to try to rekindle my relationship with my sister-in-law. Now is the time, she’s hit the lowest of the low.”

What Melissa fails to address, however, is why Jacqueline and Kathy allegedly felt comfortable enough to have those conversations with her in the first place—conversations about Teresa that she seems conveniently detached from now.

Adding fuel to the fire, Gorga then goes after Laurita for discussing her RHONJ experience in podcast interviews:

“Jacqueline Laurita used to do that shit too.She was going on podcasts just to bash me.Nobody cares, bro. Nobody cares.Everyone has an opinion, and you could hate me, the next one loves me, the next one can hate me, this one loves you. Who gives a fuck what anyone says anymore? It’s like these people think they’re changing the universe.They’re like, I’m going to say this about her.Oh, okay. That’s going to just change everyone’s minds.”

Interestingly, Melissa Gorga has appeared on 43 podcast episodes in the past eight months alone, not including her own podcast. For someone who claims “nobody cares” and dismisses podcasting as performative, she’s certainly logged the hours.

Now, Jacqueline Laurita is responding—and she’s not holding back. Speaking to AllAboutTRH exclusively, Jacqueline Laurita set the record straight:

“Thank you AATRH for bringing this to my attention, otherwise I never see or hear about that miniature couple anymore.  They are not even in my universe.  They are so uninteresting to me.

I actually can’t believe she is still talking about this. It’s been such a long time. However, Melissa has always been worried about how others will view her and she’s always tried to shift the narrative in her favor. Somebody should let her know that it’s not going to change the universe saying all of these lies in an attempt to save herself. Not enough people care.

The truth is…Joe and Melissa hated Teresa. That’s why they called her out on National TV many times. That’s why they told me and everyone else behind the scenes, all of Teresa’s private matters. I wouldn’t have known anything if it wasn’t for them.

Melissa is the one that told me Teresa’s letters out of prison for “new beginnings” were fake, initiated by her lawyer they shared, and that she really hated me. Joe told me she was worse than before, so of course I wasn’t thrilled to be filming with her again. They weren’t either. But then Teresa was nice to me. It was a bit confusing.

Joe and Melissa never sat me down to tell me any of the things you (AATRH) told me Melissa is saying now. I am the one that told THEM to fake it until they make it with Teresa. I knew the whole time behind the scenes they hated Teresa and vice versa. I wasn’t jealous or worried at all at ANY time. I was the one advising them to fake it for family sake. Melissa was the one jealous and worried about how easily Teresa and I made up.  

She would have rather had me as the one fighting with Teresa on camera. Melissa even said on camera in a scene on our Vermont trip that she couldn’t believe how easily we made up when it’s been so hard for her.

Melissa is the one who would tell me all the time that Teresa was being fake to me and not to trust it. That’s why it was SO annoying and hurtful to me how Melissa talked to Teresa about me and came at me on camera after everything she was saying to me about Teresa behind the scenes. It was so calculated for the viewers. She wasn’t a true friend at all.

Melissa always told Joe to bring things up on camera about his sister because she said she would look bad if she did it. She put a lot of pressure on him.

I’m just disgusted with all of her lies.  She should just move on with her life. If she didn’t keep talking about us, we wouldn’t feel compelled to respond on a podcast or anywhere else when people or interviewers ask us questions about her or about something she said. This is all just nonsense. I’m going to go back to putting aquaphor on my face.

Did you see how natural and beautifully my face is healing now from my facelift, neck lift and CO2 laser after Dr. Steven Ip in Newport Beach, CA did his magic? I feel fantastic! Check him out! I highly recommend him. Thank you for the opportunity to plug this! ?

At the end of the day, if Melissa Gorga truly believes no one cares about what’s being said on podcasts, perhaps she should start by unsubscribing from her own—because if there’s one thing more transparent than a CO2 laser treatment, it’s selective outrage.

Teddi Mellencamp is opening up about her ongoing fight with stage 4 melanoma, sharing hopeful news with her fans while also shedding light on the long road ahead. Teddi Mellencamp Faces 2 More Years of Cancer Treatment Despite Positive Progress Just weeks after revealing that “all tumors stage 4 (metastasized melanoma in my brain and lungs) shrunk or disappeared,” Mellencamp, 43, provided further insight into her health journey on the May 14 episode of Two Ts In a Pod, the podcast she co-hosts with Tamra Judge. “Last time, they had checked solely my brain, and those tumors are shrinking,” Mellencamp said. “And then, today I had the scan, where they checked my lungs and they are shrinking and one of them has shrunk so much you can barely even see it.” While the former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star is seeing positive progress, she emphasized that her treatment is far from over. “So every four weeks for the next two years, I have to come in and get [immunotherapy] done,” she explained. “And then every three months I get another scan and we check to make sure that everything is where it is.” Teddi Mellencamp Opens Up About Her Stage 4 Cancer Battle Immunotherapy, according to the American Cancer Society, works by helping the body’s immune system “boost or change how the immune system works so it can find and attack cancer cells.” Though Mellencamp’s cancer hasn’t been declared gone, her doctor confirmed the signs are encouraging. “Everything’s just heading the correct way,” she shared. When asked by Judge whether immunotherapy is controlling or curing the disease, Teddi Mellencamp replied, “It’s both.” She elaborated: “It’s making sure that it’s getting smaller and then let’s say that it gets so small that it disappears, it’s making sure that it won’t form anywhere else in my body.” Despite the challenges that come with ongoing treatment, Teddi Mellencamp is trying to stay optimistic. “I was a little bit worried about having to live on immune therapy because you know how I am when I get super emotional on certain days,” she admitted. “But I think that the fact that this is all moving in a smooth path forward is really good news.” Looking ahead, Mellencamp said she’s eager to return to podcasting in full. She added, “I hope to be back in ‘full force’ starting in June.”

Reality TV stars are no strangers to drama, but Real Housewives of Orange County’s Gina Kirschenheiter is now facing a storyline that extends far beyond Bravo’s cameras. Gina Kirschenheiter has been unexpectedly swept into the middle of a heated legal battle between her boyfriend, Travis Mullen, and his ex-wife, Meghan Mullen — and the accusations flying back and forth are nothing short of jaw-dropping. RHOC’s Gina Kirschenheiter Caught in Explosive Custody Battle Between Boyfriend and His Ex-Wife The conflict escalated after Travis, 41, filed an emergency motion seeking full legal and physical custody of the couple’s three children — Presley, Bennett, and Joseph. His request stemmed from serious concerns about Meghan’s alleged drug use and parenting behavior. In court documents obtained by In Touch Weekly, Travis claimed Meghan has been “undermining his custodial time” and creating an unhealthy environment for their children. RHOC’s Gina Kirschenheiter Caught in Explosive Custody Battle Between Boyfriend and His Ex-Wife He cited troubling incidents, including Meghan allegedly passing out in her car in the school pickup line — claims which he says have been reported by multiple people. Even more concerning, Travis said Meghan failed to comply with court-ordered drug testing on two separate occasions, further heightening his fears about her fitness as a parent. Meghan, however, isn’t staying silent. In a scathing response, she painted a drastically different picture — accusing both Travis and Gina Kirschenheiter of creating a toxic atmosphere for the children. According to her filing, the kids have expressed fear of both their father and Gina Kirschenheiter, alleging that the RHOC star mocked one of the children’s weight and regularly bad-mouths Meghan in front of them. “These filings appear intended to punish and control me, not to protect the children,” Meghan claimed. She also accused Travis of using the court system as a form of retaliation and coercive control. Additionally, Meghan categorically denied the drug use accusations and asserted that she has fully complied with all required testing — in stark contrast to Travis and Gina, who she says have never been asked to submit to the same scrutiny. Taking her defense a step further, Meghan called out Gina directly, saying the reality star contributes to household tension and engages in public shaming. Meghan also accused Travis of having a history of intimidation during their marriage, including physical aggression — allegations he has not publicly addressed. Despite the explosive claims and counterclaims, the court denied Travis’s emergency motion. However, the matter is far from settled. A full hearing has been scheduled for July 10, and all eyes are on what could be a high-stakes courtroom showdown. A source close to Gina has already fired back, calling Meghan’s claims “total BS” and insisting that Gina would never mock the children. With legal documents, public statements, and children’s wellbeing all hanging in the balance, this family dispute is unfolding like a reality show script — only this time, the stakes are heartbreakingly real.

Sonja Morgan isn’t letting a restaurant ban ruin her appetite—or her sense of humor. Days after reports surfaced that the former Real Housewives of New York City star was blacklisted from Tucci, a popular NYC dining spot, Morgan took to Instagram to set the record straight—and share a new dinner invite. Sonja Morgan Fires Back After Restaurant Ban—Says She Was Invited For A Promotional Post & Staff Was Aware According to Page Six, the drama started when Morgan allegedly refused to pay a $1,000 bill during a recent visit to Tucci. The outlet quoted a source claiming Sonja was “absolutely hysterical and refused to pay,” adding that she shouted, “I’m a celebrity!” and insisted, “I don’t pay; people pay me [to go to their restaurants].” Tucci’s owner, Max Tucci, reportedly confirmed that Sonja is no longer welcome at the establishment. But in true RHONY fashion, Sonja isn’t staying silent. “I believed I was dining in exchange for a promotional post. … I made that known to staff,” she clarified on Instagram, suggesting the blowup was all due to a “miscommunication.” On the same day the report dropped, Sonja posted a screenshot of a recent DM inviting her out to dinner, seemingly in solidarity with her situation. The message, responding to a July 2024 post where she celebrated with interns at Il Tinello, read, “Please, if you’re in the city come by for dinner.” Sonja Morgan Fires Back After Restaurant Ban—Says She Was Invited For A Promotional Post & Staff Was Aware That earlier post showed Sonja in high spirits, dining on Italian fare and reflecting on a major milestone: “Had a wonderful time celebrating the sale of my house with my interns at the classic and iconic Il Tinello … Amazing food & atmosphere.” Still, the Tucci fallout hit a nerve. “I felt lost,” she admitted, referencing the whirlwind of negative headlines. Whether you see it as diva behavior or a misunderstanding, one thing’s for sure: Sonja Morgan knows how to turn scandal into a story—and maybe even a dinner invite.

Though Mauricio Umansky and Kyle Richards have been separated since 2023, it’s clear there’s still a deep connection between the longtime couple. In a recent interview with TMZ, Mauricio candidly discussed where things stand today between him and the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star. RHOBH’s Mauricio Umansky Says He Still Loves Kyle Richards Amid Separation “We talk all the time,” Mauricio said, confirming that even amid their separation, they’ve managed to maintain open lines of communication. He didn’t shy away from expressing how he truly feels either: “I love her.” Despite the challenges that come with any separation, the family seems to be navigating it with grace—and even a bit of humor. Earlier this month, Mauricio and Kyle reunited with their three oldest daughters for a night out in Los Angeles during Mother’s Day weekend. The family outing suggests that while the romantic chapter of their marriage may be paused (or possibly over), the family bond remains strong. Mauricio also shared a lighthearted moment involving Kyle and a surprise visitor at their La Quinta home. During the Stagecoach 2025 festival, Kyle encountered a snake at the house and immediately called Mauricio for help. The incident was captured on daughter Sophia Umansky’s TikTok, where Kyle can be seen talking to her estranged husband on the phone. “I thought it was hilarious,” Mauricio said, adding, “I wasn’t nearby then.” RHOBH’s Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky While Mauricio appears optimistic and open-hearted, Kyle has taken a more introspective tone. During Part 3 of the RHOBH Season 14 reunion, she reflected on the reasons behind their split. “I know he regrets things that have happened that got us to this place,” Kyle said, but she admitted uncertainty about whether reconciliation is in the cards: “I don’t know if he wants to get back together because he has never said that.” Kyle also acknowledged her own role in the breakdown of their relationship. “I mean, I have regrets from allowing… for both of us allowing us to get to this place,” she said. “I wish that we had communicated better when things started bubbling up.” Mauricio has since been spotted partying, and making out with several different women. While the future of their relationship remains uncertain, one thing is clear: there is still mutual love, and a shared commitment to their family. Whether or not that leads to a romantic reconciliation, time will tell.

It seems reality TV doesn’t always stay on screen. Former Real Housewives of New York City star Sonja Morgan found herself in the headlines again—this time over a $1,000 bill and a dramatic confrontation at a swanky New York restaurant. Sonja Morgan Over the weekend, Morgan reportedly dined at Tucci, an upscale Italian eatery in Manhattan’s trendy NoHo district. She had booked a table for three, seemingly expecting a relaxed evening. But things escalated quickly when the bill arrived—and it wasn’t on the house. According to Page Six, Morgan became “absolutely hysterical” after being presented with the check, allegedly assuming the meal would be comped due to her celebrity status. One source told the outlet, “It was like she was filming a ‘Housewives’ episode, shouting, ‘I’m a celebrity!’” The insider continued, “She was like, ‘I don’t pay; people pay me [to go to their restaurants].’ She was absolutely entitled and caused a scene about not paying.” Morgan is said to have phoned the restaurant’s owner, Max Tucci, demanding the charges be dropped. While Tucci confirmed that Morgan had previously dined there for free, he stated that this time, no such agreement had been made. Despite the initial drama, Sonja Morgan eventually settled the full bill, including a tip. But the damage had already been done: Tucci’s team made it clear she’s no longer welcome at the establishment. Sonja Morgan Responding to the backlash, Morgan chalked the incident up to confusion. “There was a clear miscommunication,” she told Page Six. “I believed I was dining in exchange for a promotional post … I made that known to staff.” This isn’t Morgan’s first run-in with controversy. In 2010, she was arrested in Southampton, New York, for driving while intoxicated. After running a stop sign, police administered field sobriety tests and determined she was impaired. She refused a Breathalyzer and was ultimately charged with misdemeanor DWI, along with several traffic violations. Still, Morgan remains a recognizable face in reality television and social media, continuing to ride the waves of fame—scandals and all.

It wouldn’t be a season of The Real Housewives of Orange County without major drama—but this time, it’s not just the usual on-screen shade. Rumors are swirling that cast member Katie Ginella may be getting iced out by producers and her co-stars as filming wraps on Season 19. Katie Ginella Sources close to production told The U.S. Sun that Katie has been missing from several key cast events in the back half of the season—and notably absent from the group trip to Amsterdam earlier this May, a hallmark of the show’s high-stakes drama. While Bravo has yet to make any official statement, insiders suggest Katie’s reduced presence may not be her choice. “There’s been tension behind the scenes,” the insider revealed, pointing to ongoing conflict between Katie Ginella and RHOC veteran Emily Simpson, as well as returning star Gretchen Rossi. “Reality TV doesn’t seem to be for her, but she has been trying… I don’t know if she’s done for good or not. I would assume she won’t come back next season—and the decision will either be mutual or coming from the producers.” But let’s be real: when a Housewife suddenly disappears from major episodes and group scenes, it’s usually a sign that the cast—and the network—are turning their backs. Something viewers will not be fans of. Katie’s absence is especially striking given the cast’s high-profile Amsterdam getaway. Leaked photos show the women enjoying boat rides and exploring the city—without Katie in sight. For a series that thrives on full-cast dynamics, her MIA status feels more like an exclusion than a coincidence. Katie Ginella’s Bravo Future Unclear as RHOC Season 19 Wraps & Cast Reportedly Ices Her Out This isn’t Katie’s first rocky ride with the franchise, either. Her debut season saw frequent clashes with Heather Dubrow, setting the stage for an uphill battle to find her footing among the longtime Housewives. Meanwhile, the rest of the cast isn’t exactly sailing smoothly either. Tamra Judge, 57, reportedly quit and then rejoined filming mid-season, and Gretchen Rossi’s return after a decade-long hiatus has added to the shifting dynamics.

Sophia Umansky, the 25-year-old daughter of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kyle Richards and real estate agent Mauricio Umansky, is speaking out boldly amid online criticism over her use of the weight-loss drug Mounjaro. Sophia Umansky Denies Body Dysmorphia Claims; Says She Is Owning It & Credits Kyle Richards for Support While attending the Los Angeles premiere of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives season 2, Sophia opened up about her decision to publicly disclose her experience with the medication — including the less glamorous side effects like hair loss. “If you’re honest about things, people can’t even judge you or hate on you because you said it yourself,” Sophia Umansky told PEOPLE. “You’re the one that told everyone, you’re owning it, so anything anyone else has to say, it’s like, ‘Okay, well, I told you that. I’m owning it.’ I think it’s fine. And I always say I’m on Mounjaro. I obviously talk to a doctor.” Umansky, who originally shared her experience on TikTok, has faced backlash from followers questioning why she would use a diabetes medication for weight loss. But she didn’t hesitate to defend herself. “People who are telling me that I don’t need to be on it, they don’t know what they’re talking about. They’re not doctors,” she said. “And I think everyone needs to calm down and live their own lives. And honesty will get you far in life and lying is not fun. It’s not good.” Sophia Umansky She also credited her mother Kyle Richards with offering guidance while still respecting her autonomy: “My mom has been very supportive of whatever decisions we make as her daughters,” she said, referencing her sisters Farrah Brittany Aldjufrie, Alexia Simone Umansky, and Portia Umansky. “I am 25 years old, so I’m an adult, I can do what I want,” she continued. “And of course we have guidance from our mom, and she wasn’t saying like, ‘Oh, you should be on this medication.’ Definitely not saying that. I think she was definitely trying to veer me away from getting on this medication, but once I spoke to doctors and she saw that that’s the path I wanted to take, she was very supportive.” Critics have also accused Sophia Umansky of having body dysmorphia, but she quickly shut that down. “Actually, no. I think I’m cute both ways. I think I was cute before and I’m cute now,” she said. “There’s nothing wrong with trying to feel a little bit more confident, a little bit cuter. People get worked on all the time, they get filler, they get Botox, they do all different kinds of things. So if I want to feel a little cuter, why not?” Despite her confidence, the side effects haven’t been easy. Last week, she described a “dramatic hair loss situation” that began about three or four weeks ago. “I’m very lucky that I have so much hair, because at the rate that I’ve been losing hair, I’m gonna be bald in about a week,” she told followers in a candid TikTok video, showing clumps of her hair in her bathroom. In the end, Sophia Umansky is choosing transparency, self-determination, and body positivity over public opinion. And she’s made one thing clear: she’s not asking for anyone’s approval — she’s simply sharing her truth.
