Teresa Giudice exclusively told Page Six that it will “definitely [be] weird” seeing her estranged brother, Joe Gorga, and her sister-in-law, Melissa Gorga, at next week’s reunion taping for the “Real Housewives of New Jersey.”
“It’s an uncomfortable situation but you know it’s my job, so I will be fine,” the reality star added Tuesday.
Giudice, 50, has long had a tempestuous Relationship with her only sibling.
Things hit a new low when the Gorgas declined to attend Giudice’s wedding to Luis Ruelas last August.
And at last year’s Bravocon, Joe, 43, went on an impassioned rant seemingly slamming his sister for not welcoming him and his wife, 44, into the franchise.

“This is the s–t that pisses me off,” he yelled while standing at the edge of the stage during BravoCon.
Joe, who has operated several businesses, compared the casting to working a job in construction, saying, “[If I] built this building and I have a cousin that does electrical, [then] I’m giving you a job.”
“Not that we are being in competition,” he said. “F–k that. We’re family.”
Familial ties have only frayed since the show began filming Season 13, which is currently airing.
In a recent episode, Giudice blamed Melissa’s “daddy issues” for her estranged relationship with Joe.
“My brother needs to get therapy because he keeps blaming me for everything. It’s not just me, she has daddy issues she needs to go get help,” Giudice told co-stars Margaret Josephs and Jackie Goldschneider.
“Melissa always talked about that she had daddy issues, how her father would go out all the time and he was cheating on the mom. He was never home, so that’s why she always had a leash on my brother,” Giudice later said in a confessional.
The convicted fraudster spoke to Page Six at the premiere of “Mafia Mamma,” along with Ruelas, 47, her eldest daughter, Gia Giudice, 22, and Ruelas’ youngest son, Louie Jr., 19.
An insider heard Giudice raving about her favorite mob movie, whose title was eluding her. The film in question was “The Godfather.”
The comedy, which is about a suburban mom who unexpectedly inherits her late grandfather’s mafia empire in Italy, stars Toni Collette and Monica Bellucci.
“Mafia Mamma” is set to hit theaters on April 14.
