Talk about a great eye candy … The rocky marriage of Melissa and Joe Gorga is set to be a highlight of this upcoming season of The Real Housewives of New Jersey, and we couldn’t be less surprised. As we prepare for the new RHONJ season to premiere this week, Melissa talks about some of the conflicts she and Joe have found themselves in this year – and shockingly said that some of her marital fights may have had something to do with her growing independence.

Anyone who has watched the show can testify that Melissa has grown and become an independent, strong woman. It can’t be easy to run your own business and juggle with your family. As working mothers, we praise her for pursuing her passions and doing something that she loves. However, according to Gorga, her husband still sees her situation very differently.
“I mean, I’ve been with Joe since I was 24 and he’s all I know. With my independence, I think he’s really stressed, ”she told E! News. “So it’s just a process of learning how to like to get through this phase of life.”
As you all know, people grow and change in marriage. You can adapt by accepting and supporting one another – something Joe doesn’t seem to have done very well.
Gorga went further into the details of when things got worse: “This has changed even more, especially in the last year or two. And since my independence and I are just doing my own thing and having a lot on my plate, I think it created certain insecurities in him. And he really wishes he could go back to the day he met me when I was 24 years old. He misses this girl, but she is gone. “
We commend Gorga for standing up for her newfound independence and fighting for her marriage. Doesn’t she deserve to be with someone who doesn’t make her feel like her independence and success are negative? And how many times have we seen them fight this fight ?!
