Melissa Gorga threw some major shade at sister-in-law Teresa Giudice on the heels of their text message drama on Wednesday.

After a series of messages sent between them were leaked online, seemingly showing that Melissa had lied about her and Teresa’s communication leading up to the start of production on The Real Housewives of New Jersey season 13, Melissa took to her Instagram Story, where she shared a couple of posts, the first of which accused Teresa of continuously refusing to admit when she’s in the wrong.

Along with five skull emojis and a message that said, “I mean…..” Melissa shared an Instagram post originally published by an RHONJ fanpage on Instagram, who wrote in the post’s caption, “Guys!! I just saw this on Facebook!! How accurate is this?!”

“It’s never Teresa’s fault,” the page added, along with three eye-rolling emojis.

Meanwhile, in the actual post, a headline read, “Teresa’s answer to EVERYTHING.”

“Ok you guys, I’m watching [RHONJ] from the beginning again. This is Tre….” the RHONJ page explained as several phrases were given in which Teresa evaded blame in her many feuds.

“I don’t know what [Kathy Wakile]’s problem is I never did anything to her,” one statement noted.

“I don’t know what [Jacqueline Laurita]’s problem is I never did anything to her,” said another.

Similar statements were also made about Rosie Pierri, Danielle Staub, Joe Gorga, Melissa, and Margaret Josephs.

“I don’t know what Margaret’s problem is I never did anything to her,” the final message stated.

Melissa then shared a post that featured a message from another fan page.

In the post, Melissa was seen in her RHONJ cast photo as a series of her accomplishments were listed.

“I started a business on the show … I recorded and performed original music on the show,” the statements began as a slew of others directly referenced her drama with Teresa.

“I have navigated multiple character assassination attempts by my sister-in-law … My [sister-in-law] tried to set me up on camera with a vicious lie [strippergate] … I have been accused by my [sister-in-law] of being a gold digger … I have been accused by my [sister-in-law] of cheating on her brother … I have forgiven my [sister-in-law] time and time again,” they stated.

The post also noted that Melissa wasn’t worried about a storyline, insisted her integrity is intact, and clarified that she and Teresa “are not the same.”

Melissa’s post, which suggested she had gotten “under the Tre huggers skin,” seemed to come in response to a post shared by Teresa, in which she accused Melissa of using her for a storyline while listing the storylines she’s had over the years on the show.

As RHONJ fans have surely heard, Melissa and Teresa suffered a falling out amid filming on season 13 last year that resulted in Melissa and Joe skipping Teresa’s wedding in August. And while viewers will have to wait and see exactly what took place between them, the sisters-in-law have remained estranged ever since.

“I think that was honestly the best thing for my family at that time. There’s sometimes when you have to say, ‘Enough is enough,’” Melissa said on Sherri of her decision to opt out of the nuptials. “It’s sad. It’s a very sad situation. I’ve always put my best foot forward. But you know what? Sometimes when things are super, super toxic, it’s hard to keep fighting that fight, [especially] if you’re fighting it alone and it’s one-sided.”

Melissa then said that when it comes to her current thoughts on their ongoing feud, she needs to do what’s best for Joe and their children.

“I need to open my eyes sometimes and say, ‘You know what? What’s going to be good for the quality of our lives? And how toxic can you let something get?’ And so, we had to do what we had to do,” she explained. “[I] never wanted to do it but I do think we made the right decision for our family.”

The Real Housewives of New Jersey season 13 airs Tuesdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
