TERESA Giudice has tried hard to keep her distance from Melissa Gorga, but this past weekend in Atlantic City, the two Real Housewives of New Jersey castmates almost had an awkward run-in.
Melissa, 43, was spotted at HQ2 Nightclub inside Ocean Casino Resort late Friday, November 4th, hours before Teresa, 50, checked into the hotel on Saturday, November 5th.

An eyewitness told The U.S. Sun: "Melissa was seen partying at the nightclub with her husband Joe [Gorga] and their friends. They were in the VIP section keeping to themselves."
The Gorgas were coming from Sebastian Maniscalco's comedy show at Borgata where they were staying.
Melissa was joined by RHONJ newbie Rachel Fuda and her husband, John Fuda.
Meanwhile, Teresa was just right around the corner, the insider shared.

"Teresa checked into Ocean on Saturday. She was with her family including Louie [Ruelas], his kids and her kids. They were in Atlantic City celebrating her son-in-law's birthday. She had plans to go to HQ2 Nightclub on Saturday night but ended up going to Premier Nightclub at Borgata."
Teresa partied with pal and RHONJ co-star Jennifer Aydin, who just weeks ago, on Saturday, October 15th, threw a drink at someone from the Gorga's team after spending the day at BravoCon.
A second source told The U.S. Sun: "Melissa had no idea Teresa would be in Atlantic City at the same time as her. It would've been an awkward run-in for sure."
ROCKY RELATIONSHIP
Teresa and Melissa's falling out happened this past summer when Melissa and Joe both skipped Teresa and Louie's wedding due to cheating rumors that will play out on season 13 of RHONJ.
Since then, the families have been divided and are avoiding each other at all costs. They even had separate panels at BravoCon.
The source said: "Teresa and the Gorgas are still not communicating. Eventually there's a chance they can reconcile but now it's just tough.

"Bravo would want a reunion among the cast to happen when cameras are around.
"The reunion won't happen until a few weeks into the premiere of the new season [in early 2023].
"Since filming isn't taking place, the cast is going about their business and living their lives separately."
PUBLIC DISPUTE
The split families have publicly addressed how they feel about each other.
During Teresa's panel at BravoCon, she slammed Joe and said: "Family shouldn’t be acting this way. I just got married."
"I’m focusing on my children and husband. I wish him and his family well. This isn’t how I was raised."
Teresa more directly attacked Joe during another panel.
She said: "What’s going on is disgusting. I want my name out of his mouth. I wish him well. Wish me well. I want peace. I have teenagers. I need to focus on what’s good for our family."
Teresa also said it was "really sad" Joe did not come to the wedding.
“I was really hurt. It was really sad for me," she admitted.
"Devastating. He’s my only family. I love my family. He’s my only sibling. "
Joe addressed Teresa's comments saying: “I’m hearing in the press that she said there is no fixing our relationship."
