Joe's dad, Frank Giudice died suddenly back in July. He collapsed just outside of their home. Joe agreed with his wife concerning his drinking habits.
"Before we started the Real Housewives stuff, I think I used to drink only on the weekends. Now I drink every day...just wine, I don't drink anything else really. I might have a little problem," he said. He added that it is not difficult for him to share four bottles of wine with one other person and two when he is alone.
Teresa also spoke on the state of their relationship as rumors have swirled that she was leaving him because of their legal woes. Still, Teresa maintained that she does not believe Joe intentionally meant to bring her harm.
"I think it's a learning lesson for both of us... Since [the sentencing] he's been feeling bad and keeps coming up to me and hugging me."
But Joe did admit that he takes some of the blame for their scheduled prison time.
"I do [feel guilty]. I did everything I could to get [Teresa] out of it, but it didn't work."
