This girl is on fire.
Melissa Gorga celebrates a new chapter — marked by the end of her friendship with sister-in-law Teresa Giudice — in her tagline for “The Real Housewives of New Jersey” Season 14.
“It’s hard not to burn bridges … when you’re on fire,” the Envy by Melissa Gorga boutique owner, 45, says at the start of the clip released on Tuesday by Bravo.

Giudice, 51, seemingly offers a retort to Gorga’s assessment of their fallout at the end of the segment, saying in her own tagline, “You could try to tear me down, but this ‘Tre’ just keeps on growing.”
The two have been feuding on and off for years. Still, it escalated after Giudice and her husband, Luis “Louie” Ruelas, accused the “On Display” singer of cheating on husband Joe Gorga during the explosive Season 13 finale.
Melissa — who denied the allegations — ultimately decided that she and Joe would skip Giudice and Ruelas’ August 2022 wedding.
The ladies largely filmed the upcoming installment of “RHONJ” separately.
Melissa explained on a January episode of her podcast that both her family and Giudice’s are “happier” since leveling down to “almost zero” communication.
Giudice seemingly feels the same. At BravoCon in November 2023, she confidently told fans the “chapter’s closed” between the castmates.

“The feeling is mutual,” Melissa told Page Six just one month later.
Aside from Melissa and Giudice’s pointed taglines, the other Garden State gals — including Dolores Catania, Danielle Cabral, Margaret Josephs, Rachel Fuda and Jennifer Aydin — came up with clever sayings to define their Season 14 experiences.
“I’m a girl from Paterson, playing Switzerland, dating an Irishman,” says Catania, 53, noting her neutral position among the divided cast and her relationship with beau Paul “Paulie” Connell.
Meanwhile, Cabral, 38, took an opportunity to subtly plug her Boujie Kidz business. “I’m bougie, unbothered and above your drama,” she says.
Josephs, 57, hints that social media drama abounds among the women as cameras roll for the next installment of the unscripted series.
The Soirée mocktail founder warns, “While you’re taking cheap shots, I’m taking screenshots.”
