For a while it looked like Teresa Giudice might have finally made peace with her brother and sister-in-law, Joe and Melissa Gorga, didn't it? The last season of The Real Housewives of New Jersey showed the formerly estranged family getting along and acting normal. The Gorgas were constantly showing support for Giudice, but in the months since she was sentenced to 15 months in prison, there has been silence. As it turns out, things were not quite as cool as it seemed when they were filming, and in her final weeks of freedom Giudice started blaming everyone for her fate, including the Gorgas.

According to a report by Radar Online, Giudice made a number of calls before reporting to prison early Monday morning, Jan. 5, and one of those was to her brother and Melissa:

"Teresa called many people the night before she went to prison. Two of the people she called happened to be Melissa and Joe. She was insistent that they were partially to blame for her jail sentence because they came on the Real Housewives of New Jersey and made her look bad. The conversation did end amicably. However, it obviously wasn't a positive thing to have her pointing blame for her legal issues in their direction."

So if this is really true then it sounds like Giudice either has not learned anything and the judge in her case was right when she made that assessment, or else the reality star is delusional. Do you think spending this entire year in a jail cell will prompt Giudice to finally really own her own behavior, or does she believe everyone has spent several years watching her on reality TV and formed their opinion of her based on that rather than her criminal activity?
