RHONJ alum Kathy Wakile threw some major shade at Melissa Gorga while appearing on Sunday’s Watch What Happens Live.
On Sunday’s episode of WWHL, Andy Cohen asked Kathy Wakile about the news that she and her husband, Rich Wakile, are building a house near Melissa and Joe Gorga.
“Ya’ll are building a house by Melissa’s new house, right?” Andy asked, to which the RHONJ alum replied, “Yeah, Melissa Way. Apparently, she owns the street. “
Kathy then added, “I had my eye on that house forever,” clarifying that the Gorgas played no role in their decision to purchase the property.
RHONJ star Jennifer Aydin, who was also a guest on WWHL, then asked Kathy, “She said she wants to get back together. What do you think about that?”
“It’s very convenient,” Kathy said.
Melissa Gorga recently confirmed that Kathy and Rich purchased a property on the same street as her Franklin Lakes home.
“Her and Richie just bought the lot on my street, across the street from me, and they are building a house diagonal from me across the street on my street. Literally,” Melissa Gorga said on SiriusXM’s “Jeff Lewis Live.”
She also admitted that she hoped this could lead to a reconciliation between her husband and his cousin.
“I secretly hope like Joe and Kathy are walking down the street one day and bump into each other,” Melissa told Jeff, noting that Kathy is a “good” person.
“I do think that [Joe] regrets, you know, he did what he had to do at the time to back his sister up and do what he had to do. But I really think he enjoyed Kathy.”
The Gorgas and the Wakiles have been estranged since Teresa Giudice cut Kathy out of her life for good during season 7 of RHONJ. Kathy left the franchise afterward and has not returned since.
AllAboutTRH was the FIRST to reveal that Kathy and Rich Wakile would be neighbors with Melissa Gorga and her husband, Joe Gorga, in March 2023.
On Saturday, March 25, 2023, Kathy and Rich Wakile revealed they bought a property in Franklin Lakes, New Jersey, to build their next house.
This news came months after the RHONJ alums sold their previous Franklin Lakes home. The two sold their longtime Franklin Lakes mansion in November 2022 for $3.65M after building the 7,529 sq ft home in 2016.
At the time, AllAboutTRH was interested in learning more about Kathy and Rich’s new home, so we did a little digging and found some very interesting tea.
Kathy and Rich’s new home is just doors from Melissa and Joe Gorga‘s new home.
In February, the Wakiles purchased 267 Indian Trail Dr in Franklin Lakes for $2.6M, while the Gorgas purchased their property, located at 300 Indian Trail Dr in April of 2021 for $950k. The Gorgas knocked down the house on the property and built their dream home from the ground up. After nearly two years of building, the couple moved into their new home in late 2022.
