RHONJ alum Jacqueline Laurita is coming for Melissa Gorga almost a year after the 44-year-old leaked her texts with Jackie Goldschneider at the season 13 reunion.
Let’s take a stroll down memory lane for a moment. Teresa Giudice and Jacqueline Laurita reconnected in February 2023 after years of not speaking. Their reunion set the Bravoverse ablaze, but not everyone in the RHONJ cast was thrilled about them reconciling—e.g., Melissa Gorga.
So, it wasn’t surprising that when the RHONJ season 13 reunion came around, Melissa Gorga shared text messages between Jacqueline and Jackie Goldschneider in an attempt to prove that Teresa and Jacqueline’s reconciliation was bullshit.
Melissa made it out that the text messages between Jacqueline and Jackie were recent when, in fact, they were from long before Teresa and Jacqueline ever reconciled.
At the time, AllAboutTRH confirmed, via Jacqueline, that the text messages were from 2021, two years before she and Teresa made up. Jacqueline says they both trashed each other publicly and privately, so she was unsure why they were suddenly relevant.
Now, almost a year after the fact, Jacqueline is coming out swinging against Melissa, accusing the RHONJ star of trying to “discredit” her.
She also said that Melissa was scared that she would tell Teresa “all the shady things Melissa said and did behind her back.”
On AllAboutTRH’s Instagram, Jacqueline commented:
“Teresa and I made up on February 11, 2023. Those texts with Jackie were from March of 2021. Melissa lied at the reunion when she said those texts were recent. They were from a time [when] Teresa and I still openly hated each other. It’s very calculating that Jackie and Melissa wanted to share that at the reunion when they both were saying similar things about Teresa. I think they were trying to discredit me and destroy our friendship because now that Teresa and I were friends, Melissa was very afraid that I’d tell Teresa all the shady things Melissa said and did behind her back. It didn’t work.”
RHONJ airs on Sundays at 8 pm on Bravo.
