Teresa Guidice is all about family—including her brother Joe Gorga.
After the Real Housewives of New Jersey star reconciled with her sibling and her sister-in-law Melissa Gorga following their longstanding feud, she shared how her 24-year-old daughter Gia Guidice inspired the decision.
“I reached out to him after I was on Special Forces,” Teresa told E! News’ Erin Lim Rhodes in an exclusive interview Nov. 15 at BravoCon 2025 at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. “She wanted me to let go of the past with her dad. As a mom, we have to be good role models for our children and I’m always a mom first.”
For the reality star—who also shares daughters Gabriella Guidice, 21, Milania Guidice, 19, and Audriana Guidice, 16, with ex-husband Joe Giudice—her mind began to wander to other strained relationships in her life.
“When I thought about my husband and letting the past go, I thought about my brother,” she explained. “I want my brother back in my life. I came home and then I reached out to him. As soon as I reached out to him, he, of course, responded.”
