Melissa Gorga’s promo for Season 13 of “The Real Housewives of New Jersey” promises to provide “toxic” turmoil between her and sister-in-law Teresa Giudice.
The 43-year-old shopkeeper of Envy by Melissa Gorga states at the beginning of the new intro that was broadcast by Bravo on Thursday, “You will never realize how toxic someone is unless you breathe cleaner air.”
Giudice, 50, also employs a catchphrase to express how she feels about the continuing family feud, which has involved her younger brother Joe Gorga.

Blood may be thicker than water, the original “RHONJ” performer declares at the video’s conclusion. Yet, cleanup after a spill is a major hassle.
When filming of “New Jersey” came to a close in the summer of 2022, the tiff was presumably in question by the women. In August, after an intense confrontation was filmed for the Season 13 finale of the Bravo reality show, Joe, 47, and Melissa did not attend Giudice’s wedding to Luis “Louis” Ruelas.
A source had told Page Six that the Gorgas “laughed off” allegations that Melissa had an affair with lifelong friend Nick Barrotta, but the suspicions stoked the fires of resentment. Melissa Gorga then added on her “On Display” podcast, “Sometimes when things are too toxic and you try over and over and over and it just keeps going back around to the same issue, even if it is family, you have to let it go.”
If the taglines of the rest of the cast are any indicator, though, Season 13 is about much more than the Gorga-Giudice conflict. Dolores Catania, referring to her current relationship with Irish lover Paul “Paulie” Connell, boasts, “This Jersey lady has the luck of the Irish, and nobody’s interfering with my pot of gold.”
Jennifer Aydin’s portrayal of Catania’s antagonist hints that she, too, will be involved in a lot of fights this season. “Karma is a b*tch,” she quips. Therefore, “Start your barking.”
