Melissa Gorga Joins Cast of The Real Housewives of New Jersey

by at .

Teresa Giudice might be leaving The Real Housewives of New Jersey, but her family will still be represented on season three of this Bravo hit.

Multiple sources confirm that Melissa Gorga, Teresa's sister-in-law, has joined the cast and is already being filmed by the network. She's actually the mother of the little boy that caused such controversy between Giudice and Danielle Staub on this week's reunion special.

One, big, happy, attention-craving family: Melissa Gorga poses alongside Teresa Giudice and relatives.

Gorga formerly served as the secretary for her husband when he was in the landscaping business. The family is far from poor, as a source tells Radar Online:

“Their house is actually twice the size as Joe and Teresa’s. It’s enormous! She has two live-in nannies and lives in a $4 million mansion on an exclusive lot in Montville. Teresa and Joe’s house looks like a garage compared to theirs.”

While a third season of The Real Housewives of New Jersey has been confirmed, it's unclear what cast members will join Melissa for it. Teresa is on the fence, Dina has not been asked back and Staub has been kicked to the crazy curb.

That's a lot of pressure on Gorga. We hope she's practicing her table-flipping and weave-pulling skills.

    First of all it has always been said by the white man if a person has any black in them, they are considered black.

    Melissa is very pretty regardless of her ethnicity. Why are Americans sooo obsessed with what color everybody is? It's 2012 - get over it! Even if she is half Black she does NOT owe anybody and explanation and nobody has the right to "claim" her if she doesn't want to be claimed. Even if she is half Black she has made it clear that she has married into an Italian American family and that is how she is raising her children.

    To those who keep saying Sicilians are of Arab decent, go back and re read your history. Moors were North African BLACKS! Even the term Moor means "to have black skin". The Arab "look" that you describe didn't start in the Northwest but in the eastern part of Africa. In Egypt, due to the Romans and Greeks invading that part of the world and guess what Arabs are...Light skinned blacks! Get over yourselves. Being of black ancestry, whether 100% or 10% isn't a bad thing. For crying out loud every woman on the show tans. Why? To look more white?! My husband is Italian and hates how this show depicts Italian Americans. So what if Melissa is biracial. She's gorgeous.
