Teresa Giudice Divorce: Will 'RHONJ' Star Split From Joe Giudice While He's In Prison? [VIDEO]
Is Teresa Giudice preparing to divorce her husband, Joe Giudice, as he continues to serve a 41-month prison term for charges of bank and wire fraud?
According to a new report, the Real Housewives of New Jersey star has been getting her four daughters adjusted to life without Joe and now, as Teresa prepares for the premiere of Season 8, a source claims her marriage to Joe "may be over.
“Teresa keeps them busy so they’re distracted,” an insider told Us Weekly on August 23. “They have adjusted to life without Dad in the house.”
Teresa and Joe Giudice are set to mark their 18th anniversary this October and while she previously called Joe the love of her life, her time away from him has reportedly been eye-opening.
“Teresa’s still standing,” said the source. “She’s learned she doesn’t need Joe. She's loving her independence... She's becoming used to being quite free while Joe is away at prison. ”
Although Joe is serving time just 90-miles away from their six-bedroom Montville Township, New Jersey, home at the Fort Dix Correctional Institution, Teresa has reportedly visited him just a handful of times.
Teresa Giudice is also reportedly second-guessing her decision to stick by her husband after rumors claimed Joe cheated on her with another woman.
“He’s always said this particular person was just a friend, but now Teresa thinks there’s more to the relationship.”
