‘Real Housewives of New Jersey’: Fans call Melissa 'Queen of Fake Storylines' after she is shown trying for another baby

Fans think Melissa Gorga trying for another baby is part of her 'fake storyline' this season.

Melissa Gorga the sister-in-law of the ever-famous Teresa Giudice has often been criticized for her storyline on ‘RHONJ’ since the time she became a housewife on the show. Initially, her storyline was just all about her difference with her popular sister-in-law, but over the seasons, she started getting her own storylines.
 
Like in the previous seasons we saw her dabble with running a business, trying her hand at singing and of course her “mysterious sister” plotline. But interestingly each of them disappeared at the end of the season and a new one emerged in the next season. In the latest episode, we saw Melissa who just celebrated her 40th birthday in the previous episode, visit the doctor’s office to get a checkup to see if she and her husband Joe Gorga can have another baby.
 
In her green room interview, we see her lament about how her three children are already very big and explaining that she misses having babies. So the doctor examines her and reveals that she can have a baby. Joe’s sample is collected to test if he has enough swimmers to fertilize Melissa’s eggs for having a baby. The fans were so tired of watching the “fake storylines of Melissa” that they took to Twitter to express it.

A fan tweeted, “From looking for her imaginary, pretend sister, to trying to have a baby at 40, I’m tired of Melissa’s pretend storylines. #RHONJ”. Another fan commented, “So first Melissa gave us a fake sister storyline and now we have a fake baby storyline, I need it to stop #RHONJ”. “#RHONJ Melissa’s storylines: Fake singing career, Fake business..es, Fake restaurant, Fake sister, Fake baby story. Reality; Fake nose, Fake hair, Fake acting, Fake attitude. Moral of this fakery.. I mean story...Fake till you make it.”, pointed out a fan.
 
Few fans were so appalled by the lengths this housewife will go to for a storyline and expressed the same. A fan wrote, “#rhonj Melissa will do anything for a storyline but bringing a human into the world.  Girrrl!”. Another fan echoed similar thoughts with, “Melissa really claiming she wants a new baby ! ANYTHING to stay on the show ! So fake! #RHONJ”. “Melissa is the queen of whack/fake storylines across all franchises #RHONJ”, tweeted a fan.
 
 Do you think Melissa trying for another baby is just a part of her “fake storyline” or it is for real? Let us know. You can catch all-new episodes of ‘Real Housewives of New Jersey’ season 10, every Wednesday at 8 pm on Bravo.
