Joe Giudice Claims Joe and Melissa Gorga Are “Jealous” of Teresa and Fame Whores!
Joe Giudice is weighing in on the ongoing feud between his ex-wife Teresa Giudice and her brother Joe Gorga, suggesting the Gorgas’ animosity toward Teresa is rooted in jealousy.
The former Real Housewives of New Jersey star didn’t hold back during a recent appearance on the Reality Court podcast, where he accused the Gorgas of being “fame whores” and hinted at underlying tensions that have plagued their family for years.
Giudice Calls Gorgas “Fame Whores”
Despite his divorce from Teresa in 2019 following his prison release, Giudice has remained a vocal figure when it comes to the drama within the Giudice-Gorga family. Reflecting on their relationship, he described Joe Gorga as “like [a] Real Housewife” due to his apparent love for the reality TV spotlight. “He loves that crap,” Giudice said, speaking candidly about his ex-brother-in-law’s role on RHONJ.
When asked whether he thought Teresa and Joe could ever reconcile, Giudice wasn’t optimistic. “I mean, I don’t know what his problem is. You know that is his only sister. I mean, I don’t know what the hell his deal is,” he said, expressing confusion over the ongoing rift.
Teresa and Joe’s Estrangement
Giudice went on to claim that Teresa’s brother and his wife Melissa are “jealous” of Teresa for reasons he couldn’t fully explain. “I think that his wife, in all honesty, is so jealous of Teresa for whatever reason,” Giudice shared. “And so is [Joe Gorga]. I don’t know why. It’s just weird… I think just, like they’re just such fame wh**es. I don’t even like to get into it ’cause I don’t even care.”
Giudice’s comments suggest that the Gorgas may be capitalizing on their roles within the RHONJ universe, with the former reality star hinting that the couple now makes “real money” thanks to the show. While these comments were filled with tension, Giudice made sure to praise Joe Gorga for his work ethic.

Although Giudice had harsh words for his former in-laws, he gave Joe Gorga credit where it was due. “He learned from me. I taught him a lot. He’s a hard worker… Until this day, he’s still out there working every day… But is he an a–hole? Yeah,” Giudice joked, maintaining his characteristic bluntness.
Teresa’s Response to Joe Gorga’s Claims
Earlier this month, Teresa addressed her brother’s claims that he helped support her family during tough times. On the Turning the Tables with All About TRH podcast, Teresa made it clear that she didn’t need Joe’s help. “I didn’t need him for anything. I did everything on my own,” Teresa said, also revealing a particularly tense moment involving her brother. “I gave him [Joe Giudice]’s truck… he was so pissed because he’s like, ‘You could’ve sold that truck and kept the money for yourself.’”
Teresa also reflected on the strained relationship with Joe after he married Melissa, noting that her brother stopped buying her birthday gifts. “He never gave me anything. He’s never even bought me a birthday gift. Nothing… After he married Melissa, no, I don’t think so,” she said.
Family Feud Continues to Fuel RHONJ Drama
As Joe Giudice’s comments continue to stir the pot, it’s clear that the Giudice-Gorga feud remains unresolved. With Teresa and Joe’s already complicated relationship, coupled with Joe and Melissa’s contentious history on the show, it seems the drama will only intensify as the family’s issues unfold both on and off camera.
