Melissa Gorga and Joe Gorga’s middle child, Gino, is officially a teenager! The Real Housewives of New Jersey son celebrated his 13th birthday with a fun party in the gorgeously decorated backyard of the family’s Montville home.  

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.

On September 12, Melissa took to Instagram to share a glimpse of the outdoor gathering, which included plenty of festive décor and an intricately designed cake. As captured in the series of pictures below, the family’s scenic pool acted as a beautiful backdrop for the party, adorned with glowing torches and blue and silver balloons, including foil letters that spelled out Gino’s name.

Later in the night, Gino also blew out the candles on a delicious cake fit for an athlete, complete with a football design on top of a 13-yard line.

“Happy birthday to my handsome Gino @ginogorga you are so put together, so athletic, & such an old soul. I cannot believe you’re 13,” Melissa wrote in the caption of the photo. “Thank you for being a little man, and always holding the door open, and grabbing mommy a drink when she’s thirsty. I’m so proud of who you are! Happy Birthday!
