Real Housewives of New Jersey fans have been waiting to hear Teresa Giudice’s plans if her husband, Joe Giudice, gets deported to Italy when his prison stint is over. The couple share four daughters: Gia Giudice, Gabriella Giudice, Milania Giudice, and Audriana Giudice. Will a spray-tanned Teresa stay in New Jersey? Or will she go to Italy and compete in bikini fitness competitions there?
In 2014, Teresa and Joe pleaded guilty to federal fraud charges, including mail fraud, bankruptcy fraud, and conspiracy to commit wire fraud. Teresa spent nearly one year in prison “away at camp.” Joe’s 41-month sentence will be over in March 2019.
Joe came to the United States when he was one. However, he never became a citizen. Interestingly enough, his parents and siblings did. He was ordered to be deported because he committed a crime of “moral turpitude.” Joe filed an appeal in November 2018, hoping to overturn the ruling.
According to an article from People, multiple sources claim Teresa shared her long-term plans at the Season 9 RHONJ reunion taping. Reportedly, Teresa told Andy Cohen that if Joe is deported, “We’d go our separate ways.” I must say that I am surprised. But, Teresa has harbored some anger toward Joe because, while she was in prison, she missed out on spending time with her mother. Sadly, her mom Antonia Gorga passed away in March of 2017.

During the Season 8 RHONJ reunion, Teresa hinted that she wouldn’t mind relocating to Italy if that was what was in the cards for her Juicy Joe. Based on those remarks, I thought that Teresa and the girls might split their time between New Jersey and Italy.
A source told People that Teresa allegedly explained to Andy that, “If Joe gets deported, she’s not going. She said that she and Joe had talked about it over the phone and that he understood.” Really? Did either of them flip any tables at the end of that phone conversation?
Another inside source reported that Teresa “didn’t really express any sadness about that. She just focused instead on the girls. It was very matter of fact.” Oh, how times have changed.

This latest legal obstacle has been very difficult for the couple’s daughters. Viewers watched Milania hone her rap skills as an outlet to express herself during her father’s absence. I cannot wait to see the Season 9 reunion. I really want to hear what Teresa says from her own lips. And of course, I want to see how the other Jersey Housewives react!
