Thankfully for Giudice, who could probably use as many friends as she can get, Manzo and Gorga are sticking by her side as she waits for her sentencing on serious fraud charges like bankruptcy, loan and tax evasion. While speaking with E! News at the NBCUniversal Cable Entertainment Upfronts, Gorga revealed that Giudice's troubles with the law has actually helped them bury their ongoing feud.

"Obviously with what my sister-in-law is going through, I think the drama is irrelevant at this point and it's nonsense. When push comes to shove, we're family and I'm here to back her up, so is her brother."

She made it clear that fans won't be seeing any drama from them this season, but rather from the new girls coming in: twins Nicole Mauriello and Teresa Aprea as well as their friend Amber Marchese who Gorga said is "swinging from the chandeliers" and "a lot to handle."

As for Manzo, she also confessed that Giudice's serious fraud charges have helped their relationship.

"Teresa and I have organically gotten closer this past summer because of what she's going through...We became close friends again, hanging out, and it organically just happened."

She added that her new relationship with Giudice is part of the reason she agreed to return to the show after being asked back several times for previous seasons.

The sixth season of The Real Housewives of New Jersey Sunday July 13 at 8/7c.
