As anyone who has ever flipped through an issue of People at the checkout stand can tell you, Miraval is where celebrities go to get in touch with nature while basking in luxury. It’s where Oprah unwinds!

But Melissa Gorga and Oprah will have to agree to disagree because she does not appreciate this trip Joe has planned for her birthday. Why hike through stunning desert vistas when you could be by the pool with a drink?

Rich Wakile is similarly dismissive, letting out an audible fart as he tours the quiet area.

There can only be one Punta Princess, as Kathy Wakile points out, but both Teresa and her sister-in-law Melissa Gorga want the title. An argument could be made that Melissa deserves the crown solely for the way she hung her head out the airport van window and hollered at the men who, having just landed in the country were now peeing on the side of the highway, “Have some claaaaaaaass!” On the first day’s boat trip, Melissa and Teresa, and their respective Joes, have a tense pose-off in their bikinis.

Despite his wife Caroline assuring him it would be just the two of them, here he is escorting her elderly parents up a mountain and babysitting the screaming Giudice children about a cruise ship.
