Melissa Gorga engaged in a verbal war against Dina Manzo during the taping of the Real Housewives of New Jersey reunion.
According to a report released by RadarOnline , Melissa Gorga and Dina Manzo went back and forth — trading harsh barbs with one another “over the meaning of family.”
The war between the two women started when Melissa questioned the relationship that Dina has with her sister and sister-in-law, Caroline Manzo and Jacqueline Laurita respectively.
An inside source told Radar that Manzo provided a graphic description of what she wanted to do in order to keep Laurita quiet.
“Manzo sniped that she wished someone would use glue and concrete to keep Laurita’s mouth shut.”
The insider stated that Melissa came to Jacqueline’s defense, because Laurita currently “has a lot going on in her life, including dealing with her autistic son.”
Jacqueline Laurita had already decided not to attend the Real Housewives of New Jersey reunion simply because she wanted nothing to do with the drama.
Even though Dina Manzo showed up to the reunion, she has already hinted at the idea of not returning for the new RHONJ season. When asked by a fan on Twitter if she had any “interest in returning next season,” the 43-year old reality television star responded with a short and simple statement.
“NONE my soul can’t be around horrible people.”
Many fans and critics speculate that Dina Manzo views Melissa Gorga as one of those “horrible people” while other rumors claim that Manzo is really upset over the fact that Jacqueline Laurita has decided to return to RHONJ for the new season.
When viewers watch the Real Housewives of New Jersey reunion taping and see the heated battle of barbs shared between Melissa Gorga and Dina Manzo, it might appear that Laurita has nothing to do with the possible exiting of Dina Manzo from the show’s cast. An inside source even reported to Radar that “there is no love lost” between Melissa Gorga and Dina.
“There is no love lost between Melissa and Dina. Melissa wants nothing to do with Dina, and questions anyone that can’t get along with Jacqueline.”
Either way, recent reports show that the Real Housewives of New Jersey producers couldn’t be happier with the tension that seems to be building here. According to one insider, the production team is actually “very happy with the fireworks between Dina and Melissa.”
The Real Housewives of New Jersey reunion is currently scheduled to be aired over a three-week period beginning Sunday, November 2.
