Teresa Giudice must feel like the walls are closing in around her. The Real Housewives of New Jersey star has to report to a Connecticut prison camp Jan. 5 to begin serving a 15-month sentence, according to TMZ, after pleading guilty to multiple counts of fraud. While she has been publicly selling the idea of keeping her family rock-solid and united through this crisis, behind closed doors it has been quite the opposite.
We have already told you that Joe Giudice, Teresa's husband, is rarely home. Instead, he has been spotted out on a daily basis with his crew of drinking buddies, drowning his sorrows. After Teresa finishes serving her sentence, then it will be Joe's turn to spend nearly four years behind bars, after which he will likely be deported back to Italy.
Their days living under the same roof as a family are clearly numbered, and it is likely that once Teresa is released from jail she will file for divorce from Joe once and for all. While she claims to be spending every moment with her four daughters, sources close to the reality star are telling a different story: Apparently she is spending her last days of freedom partying with friends instead of being at home with her four daughters.
According to a report by Radar Online, Teresa has been spotted out almost every night with her friends. Fresco is the Montclair, New Jersey, eatery that has confirmed that the RHONJ star often comes in for dinner with friends and no kids.
It is a bit ironic because after putting out several cookbooks and praising the Italian tradition of enjoying a family meal together, you would think dinner with her kids would be a huge priority right now.
Also, there is that whopping debt the Giudices owe. We recently told you about one of Teresa's former endorsement companies giving her a $50,000 loan back in October because she was scrambling just to put gas in her car. If things are that dire, then neither Teresa nor her shady husband really have the extra money to burn on expensive nights out, right?
Do you think Teresa is going to learn anything at all after spending time in jail, or will she come out expecting to still have a life of priviledge?
