Melissa Gorga, 45, poses in a cut-out swimsuit as she wishes ‘amazing’ husband Joe a happy 50th birthday

Real Housewives of New Jersey star Melissa Gorga wished her husband Joe Gorga a happy 50th birthday on Wednesday.

The 45-year-old TV siren posted several photos from their recently family vacation in Italy.

In one of the snaps Melissa wore a strappy royal blue swimsuit on a boat as she stood next to her spouse.

Her caption was gushy but also funny as she commented she could not believe she was now wed to a 50-year-old as she added a crazy face emoji.

Happy birthday @joeygorga You are the rock of this family!’ began the brunette bombshell’s note.

She added, ‘We are so blessed to have been able to share so many memories in our favorite place with our children and celebrate your birthday.❤️

‘I never stop counting our blessings or realize how lucky I am to have you in my life.’

Then came her barb: ‘I can’t believe I’m married to a 50-year-old.’

The Bravo standout finished with: ‘I love you! Let’s keep celebrating this amazing life that we have. Xox.’

Earlier this week she took to Instagram on Tuesday to celebrate her 20 year wedding anniversary to Joe.

The beauty posted a collection of images of the two together.

Several of the photos saw the sister-in-law of Teresa Giudice in skimpy bikinis that highlighted her toned frame.

In one she held melons in front of her chest in a cheeky pose on the beach as Joe snapped away. In another, the two were getting their feet wet on the shores of Capri in Italy.

’20 years❤️ TWENTY. Happy Anniversary @joeygorga feel like I was just a girl when I married you at 25 but boy, I was a pretty smart one,’ wrote the brunette in her caption.

‘The good and the bad, the ups and the downs, having people watch our every move like we’re in a fishbowl,’ she added.

‘We’ve made it! All While inspiring others and showing them what marriage truly is and what it could really be.

‘My dream is that our kids have watched us through the years and are as happy in their marriages❤️ thank you for always loving me. #marriage #couples #rhonj’

This comes after she posed in a two piece on the Amalfi coast of Italy earlier this month.

She had on the flashy royal blue swimsuit on with cuts with gold star buttons up the front that exposed her tummy. She added sunglasses as her hair was down.

Teresa and Melissa have not been close for many years and there have been rumors they may not return for the next season of RHONJ, or at least one of them may drop out.

There has been plenty of tension on the Bravo show. 

In July, Teresa delivered a cryptic message condemning those who spread hate towards her and her costars amid calls for a cast-shakeup. 

The star took to her Instagram to share the fiery post, slamming the ‘toxic behavior’ that is impacting her castmates and their families.

'The good and the bad, the ups and the downs, having people watch our every move like we're in a fishbowl,' she added

‘What is happening off camera on social media, is absolutely disgusting and is fueled by toxic people who are not affiliated with the show or the cast and are only interested in promoting themselves by spreading their hate through false narratives and lies,’ the former bodybuilder began. 

‘It has affected all of us on the cast and our families,’ she continued. ‘They are attacking our children, going after our businesses and they are turning something that is supposed to be entertainment into something very dark and toxic.’

‘This hate and toxicity has to stop. I am asking everyone to stop engaging in any negativity towards my cast mates and all of our families. Enough is enough. Love love love, Teresa.’

While she didn’t provide examples as reference and comments on her post were disabled, Teresa’s message emerges against the backdrop of what is arguably the most chaotic season in the show’s history. 

Teresa not only refused to film scenes with her sister-in-law Gorga, but the reunion was also canceled due to the intense animosity between the cast members.

He message comes on the heels of Gorga admitting she’s onboard for a ‘change’ in the show amid calls for a shakeup. 

The star, who joined RHONJ in its third season back in 2011, opened up about the future of the franchise a month after the reunion was scrapped due to the animosity between her costars. 

‘Listen, I’m excited for what’s to come,’ she told Page Six on Monday. ‘I think we are due for some type of change. I don’t know what kind of change, but I am excited to see what happens.’ 

She concluded, ‘I am excited to see what’s next and where this show goes from here.’

The brunette beauty remains in the dark about Bravo’s plans for the show, however. ‘Your guess is as good as mine,’ she remarked.
