Teresa Giudice has spoken out after her brother, Joe Gorga, snubbed her wedding.

The Real Housewives of New Jersey OG tied the knot with husband Luis Ruelas earlier this month, surrounded by her friends, co-stars and most of her family members.

However, her sibling and his wife, RHONJ co-star Melissa Gorga, decided not to attend the ceremony at the last minute, instead choosing to spend their time at the Shore.

Following the nuptials, the bride – who had everyone in awe of her wedding hair – has reacted to the awkward no-show.

Spilling the beans on a preview of her Namaste B$tches podcast, which is officially launching on September 21, she told co-host Melissa Pfeister: ‘I feel like everything was the way it was supposed to be. I’m all about that. I’m all about being namaste, and whatever was supposed to be.

‘Teresa and Luis’ wedding is the way it was supposed to be. I’m so happy with it in my heart, thank you God. I know my parents were with me. It was the most perfect day ever. So happy.’

‘I found out a few days before my wedding that they weren’t coming, and I’m totally fine with it,’ she insisted.

‘You’ll see it play out on TV… Everything that happened is the way it was supposed to be.

‘Whoever wanted to be at my wedding was there.’

Remaining coy on her brother’s snub, Teresa took a moment to heap praise on her new family members.

‘God sent me a Melissa that I absolutely love, love, love and adore. I know Melissa you were sent to me also from my parents. I got a Melissa that loves me, I love her back, and it’s so beautiful,’ she continued.

‘Melissa I love and adore you, thank you for being by my side, thank you for sharing our special day, I felt the love from you. It’s amazing the love I felt in that room from everyone.’

Something tells us that this feud is only just getting started…

Melissa and Joe were the only members of the New Jersey cast to sit out Teresa’s big day, with Dolores Catania and Jennifer Aydin even serving as bridesmaids.

Real Housewives of Atlanta stars Kenya Moore and Cynthia Bailey – who appeared on the Ultimate Girls Trip spin-off – got an invite, with Chanel Ayan, Jill Zarin, Dorinda Medley and Phaedra Parks also flying the Bravo flag in style.

The couple lifted the lid on their side of the drama on a recent episode of Melissa’s On Display podcast, with the former singer stating that they had a ‘laundry list’ of reasons for the snub.

‘Those exact details, I obviously cannot say today. Anything that we have filmed is something that I am not able to talk about,’ she told listeners.

‘I am not going to sit here and say that there wasn’t drama, that it wasn’t crazy. Yes, there was a little aggression from certain people that could have been a little scary. There definitely were moments.’

Joe vowed that there was ‘no jealousy’ from their end towards his sister, adding that they were ‘so hurt’ to not take part in the ceremony.

‘It was so, so hard for me. Here you are as my only sister, my only blood,’ the real estate developer added. ‘We don’t have a big family, we don’t have a lot of cousins, we lost our parents. To me, it was devastating.

‘[Skipping the wedding] was one of the hardest days of my life. It was bad. But listen, let’s go back to the reunion. She did this. This was all on her. This is what she really wanted. She didn’t want you [Melissa] in the wedding.

‘She didn’t want any of my children in the wedding. She barely wanted me. I was asked, after all this information went out, to be in a wedding. And that’s what saddens me.

‘She really didn’t want us there. Now all these things that happened behind closed doors, all these things we’ve been holding in … We forgave, we moved on.’

Real Housewives of New Jersey airs on Bravo in the US and is available to stream now on Hayu in the UK.
