The Real Housewives of New Jersey boutique owner Melissa Gorga stopped by Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen Wednesday night (Nov. 15), and there was plenty of Jersey-style gossip. One caller in particular was keen to get an update on Joe Giudice. As RHONJ fans know, Melissa's brother-in-law Joe is currently serving a 41-month prison sentence, which began in March of 2016. 

How to Watch

Watch The Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 14 premiere May 5th at 8/7c on Bravo and stream next day on Peacock.

When a fan from Las Vegas asked Melissa whether she's visited Joe, and how he's doing, Melissa promptly filled the caller in. Watch the clip above to hear more about how Joe is adjusting to his time in prison, and how often he's in touch with his family. 

Another caller asked Melissa to weigh in on a touchy topic: Does she think Siggy Flicker is hypocritical for "preaching about women's empowerment," yet "starting fights" amid the New Jersey pals? Melissa paused before admitting that she does get embarrassed when Siggy speaks loudly and causes a scene (perhaps Melissa had the infamous cake fight in mind?). But she also said that she'd tell Siggy the same thing to her face. 

Yet another caller asked Melissa's fellow clubhouse guest Jerry O'Connell to share his thoughts on how Danielle Staub managed to nab 20 marriage proposals. "I don't know, but there's something special going on," O'Connell surmised. "She's got the magic," Melissa verified.
