Melissa Gorga joined the cast of The Real Housewives of New Jersey during the series’ third season as the sister-in-law of Teresa Giudice, who is an original cast member of the Bravo reality show, and ever since, she’s been winning viewers over with her memorable one-liners.
In September, as Melissa and her co-stars wrapped filming on the upcoming 12th season, Screen Rant shared a report regarding the best quotes Melissa has shared over her past nine seasons on the hit show.
Tricky Family Business
During a memorable moment from The Real Housewives of New Jersey season eight, Melissa and her husband, Joe Gorga, were seen sitting down for a meeting with his sister, Teresa, and, as was the norm early on in the seasons, tensions quickly arose between the two women.
As fans will recall, Teresa accused Melissa of failing to take the venture seriously by being late. Melissa said in a confessional that family and business weren’t easy things to mesh.
"Family and business, it’s one of those tricky, tricky things," Melissa stated.
A Different Businesswoman
On an episode of the latest season of The Real Housewives of New Jersey, season 11, Melissa and Joe addressed her busy career.
As fans may recall, Melissa set Joe off after she walked out of a restaurant and to an awaiting car without him leading her to it.
"I’m not home as much as I used to be… If it were up to him, I would just cook and clean," she said.
Then, during a conversation between Melissa and Joe, Joe told his wife, "We used to be so attached… You’ve turned into this different businesswoman."
Dream Life
During the Real Housewives of New Jersey season three opening credits, Melissa, who was starring in her first season as a housewife at the time, bragged about her over-the-top lifestyle.
"I live a life that most girls only dream of," she said in her tagline.
As fans of the series now well-know, Melissa does have a great life. Not only is she a successful businesswoman with her Envy Boutique, which she opened after landing her role on the show, she’s also happily married with three kids.
Killer Taglines
During the most recent season, Melissa’s tagline was, "I can tell you’re green with envy. And honey, green is not your color.
Several seasons prior, during season four, Melissa gave a nod to her fighting style in her tagline, saying, "I never throw the first punch, but I’m always a knockout."
Melissa and her cast mates, including rumored newbie Traci Lynn Johnson, are expected to return to Bravo for the 12th season of The Real Housewives of New Jersey sometime early next year.
In the meantime, fans can catch up with the ladies in past episodes of the series, which are currently streaming on Peacock.
