• 'RHONJ' Teresa Giudice Had No Family Visit Yet Because She's in Drug Detox

    When Teresa Giudice turned herself in to begin serving her 15-month sentence at Danbury Federal Correctional Institute, the focus was initially on the family that she was leaving behind. "The Real Housewives of New Jersey's" husband Joe Giudice is now in charge of taking care of their four daughters, something he has never done before, and the media began speculating on Teresa's life without hair extensions and a new chore list. As it turns out, an even bigger problem is plaguing the reality star: an addiction to prescription pills. According to a report by Radar Online, Teresa has been using Xanax and Valium for the last five years, and she has also dabbled with human growth hormones to put muscle on her lean frame. That means she is now experiencing some major detox behind bars. According to the source, Teresa could be afflicted with symptoms for as long as two weeks as everything leaves her body. "Teresa would get things through her friend whose husband is a doctor and two other doctors. It's going to be a [major] detox. I warned her about that. It's going to be hell. It's a cold withdrawal. You just detox. It's a really brutal withdrawal. She'll get sick. She will get diarrhea. She'll have actual DTs [delirium tremens, aka 'the shakes']," said the source.

  • Teresa Giudice Headed to Connecticut Prison Made Famous by 'OITNB' in Spite of It Transitioning to a Mens-Only Facility

    It seems that not a day goes by without some sort of crazy news connected to Teresa Giudice. In fact, just the other day she had filed with the court requesting that she be sent to a halfway house to serve her 15-month sentence rather than a federal prison. Apparently, Giudice believed that since she was a mother the court would take pity on her and allow her to serve at a halfway house so she could leave on weekends to be with her kids. Giudice's legal crisis manager, Wendy Felderman, quit on the spot because her client went over her head to make this request — one she felt unraveled all the groundwork that had already been laid. Giudice then received word that she will be serving her sentence in Danbury, Connecticut. FCI Danbury is the prison camp the hit Netflix series Orange Is the New Black is based on, and Guidice is being sent there is semi-miraculous. The camp is in the process of transitioning over to a mens-only facility, something that prompted many to speculate that she would instead be sent to a facility down South instead.
