Melissa Gorga admitted that she also thought Kyle Richards used the diabetes-turned-weight-loss drug Ozempic to transform her body.
“I’m not gonna lie, when I first saw her, I was like, ‘Ooh she’s taking that stuff,'” Gorga, 43, said on SiriusXM’s “Jeff Lewis Live” on Thursday,
The “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star said she later changed her mind after Richards, 54, publicly denied using Ozempic last week.

“And then, when she said that, I’m like, ‘Oh OK maybe not.’ You know, I don’t know. I didn’t even text her and ask her,” Gorga admitted.
However, host Jeff Lewis wasn’t buying that the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star never used the popular drug.

“I think what she did is probably went off of it to be like, ‘I’m not on it!’ So, she’s not technically lying,” Lewis, 52, said, adding that he didn’t believe Richards’ explanation that she cut out carbs, alcohol and sugar from her diet.
“I love her, but it’s not just not drinking since July – I mean, come on,” the radio personality said, while Gorga chimed in that Richards “looks great.”
Gorga – who previously owned up to getting a nose job, occasional fillers and Botox – implied that she had never tried Ozempic herself, but she did admit that there are people in her “inner circle” and “family members” who use the viral drug.
“They are turning into stick figures and like, I’m not about that,” Gorga said. “I like more of a womanly figure like Jennifer Lopez – to me, that’s a body.”
