'The Real Housewives of New Jersey' Season 5 Reunion Show Spoilers & PHOTOS: Teresa Giudice, Melissa Gorga, Caroline Manzo, Jacquline Laurita
Bravo released the photos that provides a sneak peek at the fashion worn by the cast during filming for The Real Housewives of New Jersey season 5 reunion show.
The photos were released ahead of the season finale that will air on Sunday, Sept. 29.
The photos provide a look at the cast: Caroline Manzo, Jacqueline Laurita, Teresa Giudice, Melissa Gorga, Kathy Wakile, Joe Giudice, Joe Gorga, Rosie Pierri -- along with Dr. V., who was present on the cast members' family retreat in Lake George.
Manzo is seen wearing a long-sleeve blue dress that compliments her red hair. Laurita wore a ruby red long-sleeve dress that flattered her brunette locks, and Teresa is sitting next to her in a sleeveless emerald green cocktail dress that showed of her toned arms.
Melissa sat on the left side of the host Andy Cohen. Cohen sat in the middle, possibly to act as a mediator between her and Giudice, who've been feuding for several seasons.
Either way, the aspiring singer is stunning in floor-sweeping coral gown with a thigh-high slit that showed off her gams. Wakile wore a black floor-length gown with a slit that showed off her things.
The reunion show was filmed on Wednesday, Sept. 6, and Giudice was the first to tweet following the taping.
"Back home with my girls & my honey. Going to sleep happy. Love love love you all! Xx," she tweeted hours later at 1 a.m.
Laurita wrote on the social media site later that morning: "Yesterday as a great day but VERY long!"
Enstars reported on Sept. 9 that show insiders revealed the reunion taping did have many arguments during the 15-hour taping, but overall went without a hitch. A show insider said the reunion show is "a lot better than last season's because everyone ended off on a good note."
"The ladies argued but nothing got to an extreme level. In the end, everyone was fine," said the insider, who added that Teresa and Melissa were a lot less combative than previous seasons.
A source reportedly told Wetpaint in a report ahead of filming that Giudice planned to bring her attorney, Henry Kilingeman to the taping. She reportedly had her lawyer on standby, so he could advise her on what she can and cannot discuss regarding her recent legal troubles. While Giudice wants to desperately clear her name from the charges, she is "extremely limited in what she can talk about," said the insider.
Bravo released a statement that announced the dates for the two-part reunion show: "On Sunday, October 6 at 8p.m. ET/PT during the 90-minute Reunion Part I, everyone's favorite Garden State ladies, along with visits from Joe Giudice, Joe Gorga and Kathy's sister, Rosie, come together to discuss some of this season's most talked about moments."
