Melissa Gorga ‘Enjoying the Time Off’ as RHONJ Cast ‘Speculate’ Over Show’s Future

As fans await updates on Real Housewives of New Jersey, longtime cast member Melissa Gorga is just happy to have a break. At least, that’s what she said publicly. In private, she can’t help but speculate.

“Sometimes when we’re at dinner, we’ll speculate and say, what do you think? What do you think they’re going to do?” Melissa shared. However, she recognized there’s not much she can do. “I mean, we’d be lying if we said we didn’t, but at the end of the day we know all of us have zero control over it.”

Indeed, the RHONJ stars can’t do much besides sweat and bite their nails. As much as some cast members would love an entire cast return, it feels unlikely given Season 14’s rough ratings. Still, Melissa chooses to focus on what she can control.

“Whatever is meant to be will be and that’s how it goes,” Mel told PEOPLE. While she’s made peace with the show’s potential future, she confessed she was “enjoying the time off.” As she explained, “I’m enjoying just like working really hard at [clothing boutique] Envy right now.”

“I never have this much time to get in there and do as much as I’ve been doing lately. We’ve really getting a lot of new brands in.” She continued, “So I’m taking the minute that I think the show needed, and I’m taking the time to spend time with my family and work hard on my other projects so I’m slightly enjoying it.”

As for things with Teresa Giudice, Melissa admitted, “There’s just no relationship, nothing has changed.” Teresa recently said there was “10 years” of resentment building up to her split from Mel and her husband. “It’s pretty much right where it was and I just think that’s how it’s got to be for a while,” Melissa added. Despite all the problems Teresa has caused, the New Jersey OG has faith that she’ll return to the show.

Real Housewives of New Jersey is streaming on Peacock.
