  • Teresa Giudice: What Will She Do If Hubby Joe is Deported to Italy?

    Teresa Giudice might have to face even more life-altering issues when she and husband Joe Giudice get out of prison. Teresa will be released this December, following nearly a year behind bars. Joe will begin his 41-month sentence shortly thereafter. When he is released, however, he could be deported. What does that mean for Teresa Giudice and their four daughters?

    According to Joe, they would, “of course,” go with him.

    Does Teresa Giuduce agree? And what about their daughters? Would she really further uproot their lives that have no doubt already been seriously damaged by both parents’ convictions and prison sentences?

    The topic was raised on Sunday night during an episode of The Real Housewives of New Jersey: Teresa Checks In–a show about Teresa Giudice in prison, but seemingly still serving as a presence in her family members’ lives. In the second of the three-part series, attorney James J. Leonard, Jr. asked Joe the difficult question.

    “If, God forbid, you had to go, do you see Teresa and the girls moving to Italy with you?”

    Joe claims he and Teresa have discussed that possibility.

    “Of course she would,” he said.

    “I consider myself an American,” Joe said.

    Joe Gorga, Teresa Giuduce’s brother, feels Joe is making too light of his impending situation.

    “He’s going to miss so much. Really breaks my heart for him,” he said on the show.

    Teresa Giudice’s prison time has brought the family closer–at least according to her husband.

    Are these people for real? They are criminals convicted of federal offenses. How can they even pretend that life is normal and that their situations will bring them closer as a family? They have not only destroyed their own lives, but those of their four young, impressionable daughters as well.

    Do you think Teresa Giudice would really pack up their four daughters and move to Italy if Joe Giudice is deported following his 41 months in prison?

  • Joe Gorga To Blame For Teresa’s Incarceration, Husband Says

    Joe Gorga and Joe Giudice appeared together on an episode of Watch What Happens Live recently, and a match of the Blame Game started immediately. According to Giudice, his brother-in-law is to blame for the family’s troubles because he instigated so much bad blood.

    When Joe Gorga told host Andy Cohen that he blames Giudice for Teresa going to prison for tax fraud, Giudice shot back, “I would blame more him than anybody, coming on the show and talking all the crap he talked, you know, all the years everything going on, so I would more blame him than me.”

    The episode garnered quite a bit of talk on Twitter, where fans immediately called Joe G. out for not taking responsibility for his family’s legal battles. However, Joe responded by saying he takes his share of the blame.

    Teresa has been incarcerated for several months after the couple was found guilty of tax fraud, but her attorney said recently that he’s hoping to have her home by Christmas. Her original release date was scheduled for early 2016; Joe will begin his sentence after she’s released.

    One thing both men can agree on is that life has changed for everyone in their circle since Teresa went away; for Joe Giudice, the changes have been difficult to adjust to as he continues to be the sole parent to their four daughters.

    “Nothing matters anymore. Life can just change in a minute. You don’t take life for granted anymore. Who knows what can happen — car accident, death,” Joe Gorga said.

    Joe Gorga’s wife Melissa has had quite a bit of bad blood with Teresa, but has been trying to be there for the girls in her absence. And while the eldest daughter, Gia, says she isn’t sure how she feels about that yet, Melissa says it’s important to hold the family together during a big change.

    “Sometimes it takes a horrible situation to make families realize how important one another are, and I never ever want to go back to that dark place again. Ever,” Melissa Gorga said.

  • Melissa Gorga: ‘Real Housewives of New Jersey’ Star Talks Joe and Teresa Giudice

    Melissa Gorga of Real Housewives of New Jersey fame spoke to Bravo’s Andy Cohen Sunday on Watch What Happens Live, and talked about Joe and Teresa Giudice. Gorga says Joe (her brother-in-law) is ‘rising to the challenge,’ caring for his four daughters while wife Teresa Giudice is in prison.

    Asked how Teresa Giudice was doing as well, Melissa Gorga had the following to say.

    “She’s doing well. My mother-in-law gives me updates all the time. She’s doing really good,” she said.

    Joe Giudice will head to prison when Teresa is released.

    “It’s heavy on his heart. It’s a lot,” Melissa Gorga said. “I pass him in the morning, and he’s driving the girls to school. It’s heartwarming to see him. He’s manning up, and he’s doing what he has to do.”

    Teresa Giuduce is Melissa Gorga’s husband, Joe Gorga’s sister. The two have long been close and used to see each other every day before Teresa went to prison. Her sentence has been difficult on the Gorga family, too.

    Joe and Teresa Giudice were both charged with conspiracy to commit mail fraud, wire fraud, and bank fraud, making false statements on loan applications, and bankruptcy fraud in a 39-count indictment. The indictment also charged Joe Giudice with failure to file tax returns for tax years 2004 through 2008, during which time he allegedly earned nearly $1 million. In March of 2014, the couple entered a guilty plea in a deal they struck with federal prosecutors.

    On October 2, 2014, Teresa Giudice was sentenced to 15 months in a federal prison. Joe received a 41-month sentence, followed by potential deportation to Italy. Together the couple must also pay $414,000 in restitution. They are allowed to serve their sentences separately, so one parent may be allowed to stay with their children.

    It’s good to learn from Melissa Gorga that Joe Giudice is stepping up to the plate and caring for his and Teresa’s daughters while she is in prison. Hopefully the Giudice girls emerge from this horrible time in their lives as unscathed as possible.

  • Melissa Gorga, Teresa Giudice Feud Reportedly Getting Worse

    Melissa Gorga and her sister-in-law Teresa Giudice aren’t on amicable terms.

    According to Radar Online, the Real Housewives of New Jersey co-stars still haven’t resolved their family issues, and things have reportedly gotten worse.

    Although Melissa has insisted “everything is great” between her and Melissa, an insider has revealed that’s not true. Several media outlets have also reported that things have gotten better amid Teresa and her husband Joe’s highly-publicized indictment. However, the two are reportedly “faking a friendship” for the cameras.

    “Teresa and Melissa aren’t friends, not even close,” an insider revealed. “The only time they talk to each other or interact is when filming ‘Housewives,’ or promoting it.”

    However, the insider went on to reveal the reason they have opted not to address their differences on camera. “They both decided the arguing on camera had to stop because it made them both look really bad.”

    Things are reportedly no better between Teresa and her brother, Joe, either. “Teresa’s relationship with her brother Joe, Melissa’s husband, isn’t much better,” the source said. “Although they do talk and text each other on the telephone, Joe isn’t happy with the way Melissa was treated by Teresa in the past, and just can’t forget it.”

    The Gorgas also reportedly have an issue with their nieces being filmed while dealing with the stressful possibility of both their parents going to prison.

    The insider revealed that Teresa’s eldest daughter, Gia, is having a very difficult time with her parents impending case. For those who missed it, both Joe and Teresa plead guilty to fraud and bankruptcy charges. So, they both are facing the possibility of serving time in prison.

    “It’s very upsetting to Melissa that her eldest niece, Gia, is being shown in commercials for the show, crying,” the source said. “This is obviously a very difficult time for Teresa and her husband, Joe [but] Melissa would never allow her children to be filmed or exploited if she were in Teresa’s situation.”

    However, a source close to Teresa feels otherwise about the alleged criticism. According to the source, Melissa is reportedly just “jealous.”

    “The other cast members are just jealous that Teresa has such a huge storyline this season, and the show would be nothing without her!” the source explained.

    Fans can catch Melissa Gorga and Teresa Giudice when the sixth season of the Real Housewives of New Jersey premieres Sunday, July 13 at 8/7c only on Bravo.

  • Melissa Gorga: “Girls Don’t Poop”

    Melissa Gorga: “Girls Don’t Poop”

    Melissa Gorga, one of the stars of “The Real Housewives Of New Jersey”, has a new book out that’s gaining some significant attention…and not in a good way.

    Gorga gives advice on sex and keeping the spark in your marriage, and they include not pooping anywhere near your husband and letting him turn you around and “rip your clothes off” when you say you’re not in the mood. Because every woman wants that.

    “Men, I know you think your woman isn’t the type who wants to be taken. But trust me, she is. Every girl wants to get her hair pulled once in a while. If your wife says “no,” turn her around, and rip her clothes off. She wants to be dominated. Women don’t realize how easy men are. Just give us what we want,” she writes.

    There’s also advice on keeping one’s bathroom habits completely hidden from a significant other, because everyone knows that girls get rid of their bodily waste via tiny fairies who carry it away and leave behind the scent of honeysuckle.

    “Girls don’t poop. Me, never have. Never will. It just doesn’t happen. Or, that’s what Joe thinks! We’ve been married for nine years, and he has never once seen or smelled my business. How have I pulled this off? I don’t do it when he’s around or awake. In an emergency, I have my ways of pooping so he won’t hear, smell, or see. It’s a challenge.”

    Gorga said in a recent interview that she understands why the book may be controversial to some.

    “I think it’s controversial in many ways because we do really live an old school type of marriage but with a modern twist,” she said.

    If you’re interested in more of the Gorgas’ advice on love, pick up the book, “Love Italian Style: The Secrets of My Hot and Happy Marriage”.

  • Melissa Gorga Building “Dream Home” With Hubby

    Melissa Gorga and her husband Joe are planning to build a new home after selling their Montville Township mansion for $3.8 million.

    The “Real Housewives of New Jersey” couple put the home on the market last year and say they have already purchased property in Franklin Lakes to build on this fall. Until the home is done, they’ll live in a rental.

    “We tried Montville, but it just wasn’t for us. We want to go back to Franklin Lakes, which is closer to where I work, and we’re looking at a couple of properties now,” Joe said. “This is what I love to do. I can’t wait to begin building another dream home for my family.”

    Melissa, who has seen her fair share of drama in recent months both on and off the reality show, says she can’t wait to make a fresh start.

    “I feel like this was meant to be. It happened just in time for the kids to start their first of day of school,” she said. “It’s going to be a lot of work designing and building the new home, but Joe is an incredible builder and I’m excited to go back to where we started our family.”

    Melissa has been dealing with Joe’s sister, Teresa Giudice, and a years-long catfight that stemmed from Teresa’s accusations that Melissa is a gold-digger. Since then, she has accused Joe’s wife of being a stripper and of having an affair with an old boyfriend. So far, the Gorgas have laughed off the accusations and say their marriage is stronger than ever.

    “They’re trying to break us up,” Joe said.
