Melissa Gorga isn’t pregnant.
The “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star joked that she was “pregnant with the show” during a recent interview, leading fans to speculate that she and her husband, Joe Gorga, were expecting their fourth child. But Melissa explained to Page Six that she can sometimes just have a bad way with words.
“I used a bad analogy,” she said. “Let’s put it that way. I am not pregnant. But I had a bad analogy. Sorry! I meant like, you’re already pregnant. It’s already there. You’re already in it. That’s what I meant!”
That said, on the tenth season of the show — which is airing now — Melissa, 40, and Joe, 40, are seen looking into their options when it comes to possibly expanding their family.
“I would probably want another girl so my daughter has a sister,” she said. “But we do really explore possibly doing it, whether or not it would be with a surrogate or if it would be me, so there’s a lot to watch and see.”
Melissa told Page Six a few weeks ago that she and Joe have been thinking about having another child “for a really long time.”
