RHONJ star Melissa Gorga, 46, shows off her sizzling bikini body as she steps out with buff husband Joe in Miami

Melissa Gorga, known from The Real Housewives of New Jersey, flaunted her amazing physique while spending a sunny day in Miami, Florida with her husband, Joe.

The 46-year-old reality TV star looked stunning in a striped bikini, showing off her toned physique as she walked with her 51-year-old husband, who was also bare-chested.

Melissa finished her outfit with a straw bucket hat and yellow flip-flops. She wore black sunglasses to protect her eyes.

Joe showed off his fit body by walking around with his shirt off, wearing only swim trunks.

Joe, who recently made amends with his sister Teresa Giudice, was casually dressed in white sandals, a pink baseball cap, and a silver chain.

The busy couple, who have been married since 2004, both held cellphones in their hands. 

Melissa also shared a snap in the bikini to her Instagram Stories.

‘Just waiting on dem girls,’ she wrote, along with a champagne glass emoji.

This get-together happened shortly after Joe’s well-known sister, Teresa, surprisingly revealed details about where things stand with her ongoing disagreement with the couple.

During a BravoCon 2025 panel in Las Vegas this past November, Teresa shared that she’s made peace with her brother and sister-in-law after a long period of conflict.

She expressed her gratitude for the couple, who also appear on ‘The Real Housewives of New Jersey,’ telling People she was ‘really grateful and thankful’ to be with them.

Joe even made the rapprochement official at the convention.

Teresa and her husband, Luis, were signing items for fans when Joe unexpectedly stopped by to demonstrate that everything was okay between them.

A TikTok video captured a heartwarming moment where Joe embraced his sister and her husband in a group hug. Fans were surprised and quickly began recording the sweet reunion on their phones.

Teresa told People magazine at the event that she initiated the process of reconciling with her brother, Joe, and ending their long-running disagreement.

‘I reached out to him and at first, we were gonna meet – the four of us,’ she explained, referencing to herself and husband Luis as well as brother Joe and his wife Melissa.

‘But then I was thinking about it, and I was like, you know, I wanted to talk to my brother first.’

Oh my gosh, he said it! He actually said he wanted a real connection with her, a mutual understanding! He wanted her to truly see him, to feel what he was putting out, and he needed to feel that from her too! It was so important to him that they connect one-on-one, just the two of them, before anything else happened. It’s like he needed that initial meeting to feel it all out. I’m seriously melting!

Teresa explained that she initially spoke with her brother privately, and then they all talked together as a group.

She described their reunion as wonderful, explaining that they had a chance to talk things through, apologize to each other, and finally move on. She said she was really happy about it.

The conflict between Teresa and the Gorgas family expanded, involving other relatives. However, Teresa’s eldest daughter, Gia Giudice, 24, shared that she had recently welcomed her aunt and uncle back into the family.

She expressed her happiness about the renewed friendly relationship while speaking with People on the red carpet.

Teresa has been feuding with her brother and sister-in-law ever since Melissa joined the cast of The Real Housewives of New Jersey back in season three.

Early on, Teresa accused Melissa of only being with Joe for his money, which Melissa denied.

In a 2011 interview with E! News, she shared that her husband, Joe, and she had been married for seven years and were raising three children. She described a difficult period where they struggled financially, even having trouble affording basic necessities like diapers, and were forced to sell each home they owned. She added that she didn’t have the means to travel or enjoy luxuries, and didn’t foresee that changing.

Honestly, it really bothered me when she shared that – the thought of her planting that idea in someone’s head is upsetting. But you know what? Seeing how much more it’s affecting her brother is truly heartbreaking. It hurts him so much more, and that’s what really gets to me.

Things between the family members became so strained that they all got into a physical fight in 2013. However, Teresa and her husband, Joe Giudice, seemed to reconcile with their “Real Housewives of New Jersey” castmates after they both received prison sentences for committing fraud.

After Teresa’s husband, Joe, finished serving his sentence and was deported to Italy, things were quiet for a while. However, Teresa and Melissa had another public disagreement in 2022 when Teresa announced on Watch What Happens Live that she didn’t want Melissa to be a bridesmaid at her wedding.

I was so shocked to hear Melissa say she found out she wasn’t a bridesmaid by watching the interview! Apparently, no one actually told her directly, which is just awful. She only discovered it when it was publicly revealed, and I can’t imagine how hurt she must have felt.

Melissa and Joe ultimately didn’t attend Teresa’s wedding to Luis, and Teresa said she understood and wasn’t upset about it.

Honestly, she just gets it, you know? She was talking on her podcast, ‘Namaste B$tches,’ and she was all about only wanting positive vibes at her wedding. Like, if you were there, you were meant to be there – she totally believes that, and so do I! It’s just…perfect. She only wants good energy around her, and I respect that SO much.
