Earlier this month, Wendy was arrested for allegedly staging a home burglary to get insurance money with her husband,
On Virtual Reali-Tea, Melissa was asked to share her thoughts on Wendy’s arrest.
“The truth is, I mean I saw it all [online],” she said. “I don’t know enough about the situation. I really don’t. I mean, obviously, I’m seeing it all. I do know that her episode [of
Melissa was then asked if she had touched base with Wendy since the arrest.
“No, her and I never — I like don’t know her phone number, you know? We’re not, you know, we’ve been friendly through social media and stuff, but … obviously I would always wish for the best,” she answered.
Later on, Melissa addressed her husband Joe Gorga‘s potential reconciliation with Teresa.
“[The feud] is never something that I ever wanted to happen. This was never a line that I was drawing in the sand,” she said. “And the truth is, I’m always going to be team family. There is no way that I would ever not want that for Joe. You know, am I shocked? … [Does it] feel like I could never get there, [like] I don’t know how we’re here, how any of this is happening? Of course. I’m sure we all feel that way, right? But it happens.”
The host then asked about Teresa and Melissa possibly filming together again, and then, Melissa revealed why she wants to reconcile.
“That’s for Bravo to decide, and the truth is we don’t know what’s happening for the show,” she said. “I’m doing this for a more important reason … I think everyone would do it for a way more important reason than the show, which is my children. And I would be willing to move on and try things … to show my children that this is no way to live. Like, this isn’t normal, right? … This has to get fixed.”
“Everybody needs to be able to speak to one another. We all need to take accountability, including myself,” she continued. “I mean, at some point, we’ve all said things out of anger … so we’ll see what happens.”
Melissa suggested it should be “private.”
“I’m going to keep this part private for right now,” she said. “I feel like this is our one chance to do something off-camera and not for the cameras, and have it be authentic and have it be real.”
Jenelle Evans’ 16-Year-Old Son Jace Gives Rare Update on How He’s Doing Since Moving Back to North Carolina
Jenelle Evans’ teenage son Jace took to social media recently to let fans know that he’s doing well, more than two months after his mom sent him (back) to North Carolina to live with his grandmother
As The Ashley previously reported, Jace is currently on probation (and had it transferred from Nevada to North Carolina after his move), and has to do regular drug tests and check-ins with his probation officer. The ‘Teen Mom’ kid was happy to report that things are going well for him.
“Monthly [checkup],” the 16-year-old posted to his Instagram Story over the weekend, along with a selfie. “[I’m] doin good y’all.”
As The Ashley previously told you, the former Teen Mom 2
Jace has spoken out about his mom a couple times since relocating from Las Vegas to North Carolina, including in September, when he claimed that Jenelle had blocked him on social media. (While Jace is currently following his mom on Instagram, Jenelle does not appear to be following him back at the moment.)
Last month, Jace posted a photo and quote to his Instagram, which some fans interpreted to be a reference to the teen’s ongoing situation.
“As the night gets dark, let your worries fade,” he wrote. “Sleep peacefully knowing you’ve done all you can do for today.”
Jace’s post went on to receive quite a few supportive comments from ‘Teen Mom 2’ fans, many of whom encouraged the teen to “stay strong.”
Earlier this month, Jenelle surprisingly had some positive things to share with fans about her son during an Instagram Q&A, despite (literally) laughing during a Twitch livestream the previous month over the fact that Jace was “going through it” with Barbara in North Carolina.
When asked how Jace was doing earlier this month, however, Jenelle claimed that her son was “actually doing very well,” even adding that she’s “proud of him.”
(Jenelle spoke about her son on social media shortly after returning from a trip to North Carolina, where she visited her ailing mother and saw Jace as well.)
As The Ashley previously told you, Jace has been thriving since moving back to North Carolina.
“He has a job, is keeping up with his probation and doing his online school,” The Ashley’s source claimed.
