'Real Housewives of New Jersey,' Teresa Giudice News: Prison Memoir Scheduled For Early February Release
Teresa Giudice's new prison tell-all is now officially slated to be released on Feb. 9, just four days after "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" star finishes the home confinement portion of her 15 month prison sentence.
E! Online reports "Turning The Tables: From Housewife to Inmate and Back Again" will feature diary entries the reality TV star penned while still behind bars at the Danbury Correctional facility. The Connecticut based institution is the same facility where Piper Kerman was incarcerated prior to writing "Orange Is the New Black."
The 43-year-old Giudice is promoting "Turning The Tables" as a novel that will shed light on a different person from the woman once convicted on bank fraud related charges.
"The world will see a new Teresa," she said. "A different Teresa. Well, actually, the Teresa I always was."
Giudice is set to be released from prison on Dec. 23, and will serve the remainder of her sentence under house arrest. Once she has been released, husband Joe is slated to soon start serving out the terms of his 41-month sentence on similar charges, expected to be sometime around March.
Meanwhile, Teresa has already signed on to rejoin the cast of "Real Housewives," with some media outlets reporting she could command a salary of as high as $2 million per season.
While incarcerated, Teresa also starred with her family in a Bravo network spinoff entitled "Teresa Checks In." The plot of the show centered on Joe struggling to hold his family together while his wife was away and featured Teresa via jailhouse phone conversations with family members.
"Teresa is obviously counting down the days to the release, and is happy to have three months with Joe," said a source. "It's more time than Teresa had previously been told they would have together as a family."
