Melissa Gorga: We All Made a Promise to Move Forward in Peace

Melissa discusses her thoughts on the reunion and how fighting with family hurts your heart.

Another season comes to an end. Thank you so much for always supporting our family and the show. The reunions are super frustrating for me. All we want to do is explain how we are feeling and tell our side of the story, but that doesn’t get to happen when everyone talks over each other.  

How to Watch

Watch The Real Housewives of New Jersey on Peacock and the Bravo app.  

Joe didn’t say too much at the reunion, but the few words he did say hit home for me. It’s true, it hurts your heart when it’s family. When you fight with family it affects so many other people, not just who you are in the argument with. I’m not saying I don’t get disappointed or upset when I argue with my friends, but there is a difference.  

I agreed to forgive and move forward with Teresa. When I did that, it wasn’t only for me, it was for my husband, my children and my in-laws. It’s unfortunate that I felt a lot of pressure from others to go against that promise, but I refuse to keep rehashing the past, and I am not going to break that promise for anyone.

At the end of the reunion, we all made a promise to move forward in peace.

I truly hope all of the ladies enjoy the holidays with their families and loved ones.

See you next year!
