'Real Housewives of New Jersey' Teresa Giudice News Update: Teresa's Prison Phone Calls With Family to Be Featured on Joe's New Show
Teresa Giudice's jailhouse conversations with family members will be among the scenes featured in a new Bravo Network reality show starring her husband and four young daughters.
Joe Giudice recently reached an agreement with the network to begin filming for the series, which will highlight his battle to hold his family together while his wife remains incarcerated and serves out her 15 month sentence at the Danbury Correctional Facility on bankruptcy and mail fraud-related charges.
Several media outlets had previously reported Teresa will be among the cast members for the series, and NJ.com now adds while she won't actually be appearing on TV, recordings from her conversations will be prominently featured.
Currently, Teresa is scheduled to be released in early February, but with good behavior she reportedly could be home as early as Christmas time. After she has been released from custody, Joe is slated to begin serving his 41-month sentence from the same offenses. The two are serving staggered sentences for the sake of the children.
Meanwhile, Teresa has also agreed to return to the cast of the "Real Housewives of New Jersey," and network officials are rumored to have delayed filming for the new season in hopes of being able to feature her in more of the show.
Several media outlets have reported 43-year-old Teresa will be paid as much as $2 million per season for her return, and she has already agreed to have up to 25 percent of her salary garnished by the government to pay off the nearly $400,000 she owes in restitution.
Filming for the new show reportedly began sometime in June, and camera men were recently spotted shadowing Joe and his daughters as they attended the graduation of 13-year-old Gia.
In addition to Gia, the two are parents to 10-year-old Gabriella, 8-year-old Milania and 5-year-old Audriana.
