It was not that long ago that Teresa Giudice was juggling endorsement deals and really making a nice chunk of cash because of her being recognized from The Real Housewives of New Jersey. Unfortunately for Giudice, companies do not like to affiliate themselves with shady people, and after her fraud conviction and imminent prison sentence those endorsement deals are evaporating. The first to go was a lucrative deal with Fabulicious Gelato bars.
According to Radar Online, there is no way the company wanted to continue doing business with Giudice, as a source close to the situation explained:
"The gelato bar company told Teresa last week they wouldn't be proceeding with doing any business with her. There was absolutely zero interest in the gelato bars before Teresa was sentenced, and none since. The company decided to cut their losses and not waste anymore time with Teresa. She was extremely rude and unprofessional to deal with."
Now that one company has severed ties with the convicted reality star, do you think the others will do the same? It is kind of hard to imagine anyone wanting to use Giudice's face or name to promote or endorse their products, don't you think?
The sad part of this is the fact that the Gidices's income is hinged on whatever money Teresa makes and with her being ordered to report to prison Jan. 5, she is hardly going to remain a breadwinner. Her four daughters are going to have to count on their father, Joe Giudice, to support them and even after years on a reality show it is still a mystery what it is he does.
Can you blame Fabulicious Gelato for severing ties and abandoning the sinking ship that is the Giudice brand? Tell us your thoughts in the comments below.
