'Real Housewives of New Jersey,' Teresa Giudice News Update: Andy Cohen Can't Wait For Reality Star's Releas From Prison
"Real Housewives" creator and face of the Bravo Network Andy Cohen admits that he can't wait to get currently jailed New Jersey franchise star Teresa Giudice back on air.
According to E! Online, Cohen adds that he's remained in constant contact with Giudice via email ever since she's been locked at the Danbury Correctional facility serving a 15-month sentence on bank fraud related charges.
"I'm hoping to get her back in front of the cameras," he said. "That's how I would like to handle it."
While Giudice isn't scheduled to be released until sometime around Christmas, Cohen may be getting a lot closer to his wish a lot sooner than he may have ever thought.
Several media outlets have reported the network has signed on with the Giudice family to air a three part series featuring their family beginning next month while Teresa is still behind bars.
"The Real Housewives of News Jersey Teresa Checks In," premieres on Oct. 11 and is slated to follow husband Joe and four daughters Gia, Gabriella, Milania and Audriana as they adjust to life without her there.
The show is also set to feature daily "check in" prison calls from Teresa to her family. In the recently released trailer, Joe Giudice reflects, "It's amazing how much she still controls everything from in there, you know what I mean?"
Once she is officially released from custody, Teresa is expected to return to "Real Housewives," where reports are she will command an annual salary of as much as $2 million per season. Word is show producers have also delayed shooting on the new season in hopes of being able to include her in as many episodes as possible.
Once Teresa has been released, Joe Giudice is slated to commence serving out his 41-month sentence on similar charges.
