Melissa Gorga was understandably hurt by the news that she won’t be a bridesmaid in Teresa Giudice’s upcoming wedding to Luis Ruelas. According to Teresa, however, the decision makes sense. “This is the thing honey, we’re not close. Like, you’re my sister-in-law, but we’re not close,” Teresa said on the 1st episode of the “Real Housewives of New Jersey” reunion, per Page Six.
Melissa took offense that while she isn’t included in the wedding party, all of Luis’s sisters are bridesmaids for the summer 2022 nuptials. The founder of Envy also brought up how much she helped out with Teresa’s four daughters during her sister-in-law’s stint in jail. “We have history, honey, me and you, and I love you very much, and I’m happy for you,” Melissa explained. “But I think you should remember what family is.”
Although Teresa has made her decision about Melissa’s involvement in her wedding, she’s still not sure if the event will be taped for Bravo TV. “This is not something [being on television] [Luis] signed up for,” she told E! News. “He met Teresa Giudice and … does he want to be on TV? No. But, if he dates me, does he have to be on TV? I mean, of course.”
