The year 2018 is not off to a good start for "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" stars Joe Gorga and Teresa Giudice. Siblings Gorga and Giudice decided to close down their pizza joint in New Jersey.

Gorga and Giudice opened the restaurant in May 2017, and the grand opening was featured in the Bravo reality television show. According to a US Weekly source, Giudice had a falling-out with his brother. The issue between the two then triggered to Gorga's exit. The source said, "Joe is done with Gorga's Homemade Pasta & Pizza. The actual owner of the restaurant and Joe worked out this deal where Joe would get money... if he lent his name and image to the restaurant. But the owner never made good on his end of the deal so Joe is done with the restaurant."

Gorga also had a slight disagreement with his own wife Melissa. In the first episode of RHONJ for 2018, Joe was not happy with Melissa's decision to go to Milan to acquire a unique product. The handbag she secured in Milan finally arrived at her home in New Jersey. There are still no words from the show's producer if Joe and Melissa will work things out in the upcoming episodes.

Elsewhere, fans of the show are looking forward to the next episode with Teresa set to visit her husband Joe Guidice in prison. According to the episode's summary description, Danielle Staub's boyfriend Marty Caffrey will take their relationship to a new level. Dolores Catania will also receive relationship advices from her ex-husband Frank Catania. Also, Margaret Josephs will be having a blast with her birthday on the next episode. Siggy Flicker, on the other hand, will do something that somehow diminishes her honesty among the group.

"The Real Housewives of New Jersey" episode 13 of season 8, titled "Prisons, Proposals, and Parties," will air on Jan. 10 at 9 p.m. EST on Bravo.
