A not so lucky 13th season is underway for RHONJ.

While fans eagerly await for an official premiere date, the stars of the hit show have already been alluding to a major falling out between sister-in-laws Teresa Giudice and Melissa Gorga.

As a quick refresher, Giudice married Luis Ruelas in early August. When people noticed that Melissa and Giudice's brother Joe were nowhere to be seen at the wedding, the cat was out of the bag that the family had a huge argument.

A couple months later, the stars spoke out against one another in front of thousands of fans at BravoCon, which only seemed to make things worse.

"Family shouldn't act this way. It's kind of sad the things that go down and the things that happen. It's never our intentions. We always try to put two feet forward with family, but for some reason, it always goes ten feet back. It's exhausting for both sides," Gorga tells PRIDE.

Gorga joined fellow Real Housewives Tamra Judge and Brandi Glanville in Las Vegas at Villa Azur’s newest location inside the Grand Canal Shoppes at The Venetian Resort. The star brought along her husband Joe for a fun night where she was looking forward to no drama.

"At some point, I have to worry about my kids, my husband, and my family. I have to get the toxic out. I want people around me that are rooting for me and my marriage and not trying to tear it down," Gorga adds.

Before the party started in Vegas, Brandi Glanville also chimed in on her exciting new reality show The Traitors. The star is joining other iconic reality TV veterans including other Bravolebrities like Reza Farahan (Shahs of Sunset), Kate Chastain (Below Deck), and Kyle Cooke (Summer House).

"There was a little Bravo clique! Kyle's awesome. Reza and I knew each other before and we were close. We were friends until we weren't, I'll just say that. It's every man for themselves. There's only one winner, so at some point, your friends are no longer your friends. They're traitors," Glanville tells PRIDE.

Speaking of frenemies, Glanville's co-star from The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip Tamra Judge jumped into the interview. Judge recently rejoined The Real Housewives of Orange County and she's hoping Bravo extends a contract for Glanville to return to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

"Bring Brandi back! Beverly Hills needs Brandi. I didn't even like her when she got fired, but Bravo made a huge mistake. I know when there's good TV and Brandi brings good TV. That's why Bravo keeps bringing her back, but Bravo... give her a full-time position," Judge adds.

The Traitors premieres January 12 on Peacock. To see the full interviews with the housewives at Villa Azur in Las Vegas, check out the video below.
