Despite the Gorga's being buried next to Joseph Laurita in the same mausoleum, Caroline and Teresa have not gotten along for years, and she is estranged from her younger sister, Dina.
Caroline left after season five – but she and Teresa appeared in a commercial last year.
She said on that when they shot the commercial, they talked about their issues.
Teresa claimed Carolina not standing up for her during her former feud with her sister-in-law, Melissa, hurt their relationship.
But Caroline said in the interview: “She’s very close with Melissa now so why do you still have beef? Why are you still so angry? Why are you still holding that grudge?”

In a Fall 2019 interview with Andy Cohen Teresa also accused Carolina of being responsible for her and her now ex-husband, Joe, serving time in prison for fraud sentences.
"How could she predict that [we were headed for legal trouble]? Could she have anything to do with what happened to Joe and I?" she raged. "Is she a rat?”
Carolina responded to the rat accusations on her son’s podcast, , and noted that "it’s not even worth me responding to, of course not."
"First of all, I had no knowledge of anything they’ve ever done in their life, you know?" she retorted. "At the time, Teresa had had an abundance of legal issues and it was all over the press.
"The writing was on the wall that something was going to happen because the indictment was so big. So you don’t need to be a rocket scientist to figure it out.”

Caroline and her youngest sister, Dina, have also been estranged for the last few years.
Dina told in August 2018 of the falling out with her sister. “I’ll be honest with you. I think what happened was, you know, there’s always some competition in families.
"So everyone loved when I was like the poor sister when I was working my a*s off or whatever.
“Although she encouraged me dating her brother-in-law [Dina’s ex-husband Tommy Manzo], I don’t think she loved it too much when I kinda came to her level.
"As far as like ‘I have a range rover, I got a house in Franklin Lakes,’ so I think that’s where it started.”

She also revealed that, at the time, she and Carolina hadn't spoken in two years.
Over the summer Caroline said her family was "heartbroken" after her brother-in-law Tommy was charged with "plotting to attack his ex-wife's Dina’s new husband," Dave Cantin.
In 2015 Carolina's brother-in-law, Tommy allegedly plotted the assault against Dina when she and her now-husband Dave Cantin were dating.
Caroline told : "We are heartbroken. This is family on both sides. I want to know the truth and my allegiance will lie with the truth."
"We don't run from things like this, we address them, and I feel comfortable with that because we are being painted with a brush that does not reflect who we are as people."
has been married to Albert Manzo, Tommy Manzo's brother, for more than three deades.

The brothers are also co-owners in their local Brownstone event hall.
Tommy and Dina divorced in 2012 after seven years of marriage.
However, although Dina and Caroline are distant, she and Teresa are very close.
Dina is Teresa's youngest daughter's, Audriana, godmother. And While Dina now lives in California, she and Teresa still see each other.
Yesterday, Teresa shared pics celebrating Dina's birthday at Mastro's restaurant in Newport Beach. Her new boyfriend, Luis Ruelas, who she began dating last year also joined them.
