Melissa Gorga understands how badly Bravo fans want another season of The Real Housewives of New Jersey.
On Wednesday night’s (Dec. 18) episode of Watch What Happens Live, Gorga stopped by the Bravo Clubhouse to promote her new sprinkle cookie line, which is a reference to a fight she had with her estranged sister-in-law Teresa Giudice more than a decade ago. While chatting about the new business venture, Gorga subtly shaded The Real Housewives of New Jersey’s executive producer Andy Cohen for taking his time as he figures out what’s will happen with Season 15.
“I mean, you waited 15 years for the sprinkle cookies, Melissa!” Cohen pointed out, to which Gorga replied, “Timing is everything.”
The reality star added that now was the “best timing” for her sprinkle cookie brand.
“It all happens for a reason, I believe in that. And I think people just miss Jersey,” she said, sticking out her tongue at Cohen, who rolled his eyes and muttered, “Alright.”
Gorga’s gesture comes months after Season 14 of The Real Housewives of New Jersey finished airing. She and Giudice refused to speak to each other while filming, which is partly why producers opted not to hold a reunion for the first time in the show’s history.
Cohen has since promised a “rebrand” of the show, which could potentially feature a cast of all “fresh faces,” much like they did with The Real Housewives of New York City. However, Cohen has been adamant that they are taking their time figuring out what’s next for the franchise.
The Bravo icon recently told Us Weekly that there might not be an update until 2026.
“You’re not gonna get it for, like, a year, so everyone stop asking,” he said. “And I keep saying you are going to get nothing, so stop asking!”
Watch What Happens Live airs Sunday through Thursdays at 10 p.m. ET on Bravo. New episodes are available to stream the next day on Peacock.
