Audriana Giudice opens up about her plans for the future
Audriana is only a sophomore in high school, but she already has her sights set on the future. Audriana appeared on Gia's podcast in July, where she admitted that she doesn't see herself following in Gia's footsteps and becoming an influencer.
"You're definitely an inspiration, and I think it's so cool how you have all these things to do, and you're becoming so successful, and I'm like, 'Wow, I want to be like that,'" the 16-year-old explained. "But then, when I actually think about doing it, I'm like, 'No, I can't do that.'"
Instead, Audriana would like to work in aesthetics and nursing. "I want to do Botox, actually," she continued on Gia's show. "Cause Mom would be like, 'Yeah. I just got my Botox; they were like 500 bucks or 1000 bucks.' And I'm like, 'Damn. What if I did that?'"

Melissa Gorga Sheds New Light on Her Decade-Long Friendship with Phaedra Parks (EXCLUSIVE)
Melissa Gorga feared she was in over her head when she swapped out of her Franklin Lakes, New Jersey home into Michelle Clark’s East Point, Georgia home. So,
“We love a cameo, especially a Phaedra cameo,” Melissa told The Daily Dish in an October interview while reflecting on the experience. “She’s like, ‘Girl! What is happening here?’”
It all started when Melissa realized that her temporary husband, Sean, was an extremely hands-on father who was with his young children around the clock. “He cooks, he cleans, he spends every minute with them. But to be honest, the guy needs a break,” Melissa said in the Oct. 28 episode. She decided to enforce a new rule: Sean gets alone time.
“I have something very important that I want to shop for. So, I am gonna take these three little ones shopping today,” Melissa explained. “Because you, sir, are so amazing, but you never get a break to just have a little independence. You can take a nap. Whatever floats your boat.”
As Melissa and the children stopped by a furniture store, Melissa let the kids in on a surprise. “I have a friend that’s going to meet me here. You wanna meet my friend?” she asked. She also confessed a second reason for the shopping excursion. She added, “I really wanna get the Clarks a dining room table. So I had to dial in a local friend in the area to help me figure that out.”

Phaedra was happy to meet Melissa and her “three babies in tow.” She added in a confessional, “I’ve known Melissa for over a decade. She runs a tight ship. So, when I saw Melissa turn the corner with three young children, oh, give me a Xanax.”
The Real Housewives of Atlanta mom began to quiz Melissa on her experience, asking, “Have you been eating good food?” Melissa replied, “Um, they’re vegan.” Phaedra, who was shocked, answered, “Jesus. I can’t get enough meat in my life.”
Melissa also volunteered that her first night of the Wife Swap involved “juicing,” which also left Phaedra horrified. She commented, “Child, forget the juice, what about the gravy?”
As the ‘Wives shopped, Phaedra spotted a table that was “sort of interesting,” and Melissa declared, “Oh my god, they need that!”
“It’s so important to eat dinner together,” Melissa shared in her confessional interview. “Honestly, sometimes the only time I see my kids, now that they’re older, is at dinner. The Clarks are going to realize as their kids get older, how important this is, and that they need to get used to that now.”
Melissa Gorga explains why she asked Phaedra Parks for help on Wife Swap: Real Housewives Edition

She explained she asked Phaedra for help since she knew the Atlanta area better. “I loved being able to like be like, ‘Hey, come help me find some random store, pick out a table’ and, you know, so she brought me there.”
