The Season 9 reunion of The Real Housewives of New Jersey had barely even started before Melissa Gorga dropped a juicy detail about her (very active) sex life.

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.

Host Andy Cohen was asking Margaret Josephs about showering daily (yes) with her husband Joe Benigno when he turned to Melissa and asked how many times a week she and Joe get it on.

“Three or four,” she said.

I mean, call me a dud, but wow. That’s a busy schedule.

So what’s considered “normal” sexual behavior in romantic relationships? As in, how much is not enough, or is there an amount that’s just right?

Two top sociologists who co-wrote "The Normal Bar: The Surprising Secrets of Happy Couples and What They Reveal About Creating a New Normal in Your Relationship," asked 100,000 couples and found that “extremely happy couples” claim to have sex “three to four times a week.”

Both men and women initiated it.

They found that the happiest couples also had great, fulfilling communication.
