FANS slammed Joe Gorga, 42, for "being an a**hole" during his fight with niece Gia Guidice, 21, that saw both stars end up in Teresa's front lawn.

Real Housewives of New Jersey fans said the uncle and series regular was "treating her like a child."

A blowout between uncle and niece that was earlier teased for episode two ofSeason 12 of the Real Housewives of New Jersey took full form this week.

The brawl saw Joe Gorga, Teresa Guidice's brother, and Gia, 20 years his junior, go head to head.

The fight began when the uncle described Gia's imprisoned father, Joe, as "the devil."

But it continued after Joe stormed off – going from the backyard party onto Teresa's front steps.

"You're gonna disrespect me again?" Joe asked, adding to his sister Teresa, "I'm not yelling. It wasn't nice hun."

"Can I speak!?" Gia exclaimed as she walked over and confronted her uncle once more. "You're still looking at me like I'm five years old."

"You have every right if you want to be mad at my father for putting my mom in jail," Gia calmly explained on Teresa's own jail time for the former couple's joint fraud charges – as Joe got near her neice's face.

"But it comes to a point where the bashing is just too much," she added with mom Teresa standing behind her. "The jail thing happened five years ago let it go under the bridge.

"It's over," Joe yelled with his arms wide open.

Fans flooded Twitter to bash Joe for not taking the higher ground in the heated exchange.

"Gia Giudice is articulate, rational and here for NO bulls**t. … Obsessed doesn’t cover it," one user wrote.

Teresa shares four daughters: Gia, Gabriella, 17; Milania, 16, and Audriana, 13, with ex Joe.

The former pair were married to from 1999 to 2019.
