As The Real Housewives of New Jersey's Teresa Giudice's prison sentence gets closer, rumor has it that her oldest daughter Gia Giudice will be moving out of the Giudice household, rather than staying her father Joe Giudice and her sisters.

Teresa is slated to begin her 15-month sentence on Jan. 5. She and Joe pleaded guilty to serious fraud charges earlier this year. Joe will begin his sentence of 3.5 years once Teresa is released.

An insider revealed to Radar Online Wednesday that Gia has decided not to live with her father while Teresa is behind bars.

Instead, the 13-year-old has expressed her desire to move in with one of her close friends from the teen girl group she is a part of, 3KT.

"She knows her family needs her, but she also realizes that she needs a mother figure while her mom is locked away. She's at the age where she really needs a mother in her life to help her throughout he changes of going from a girl into a young woman, and it's not like she'll be able to pick up a phone and dial her mom at a moment's notice."

On top of that, she has said to have gotten extremely close with her fellow girl group members, 16-year-old Alexa Maetta and Cristianna Cardinale, 14.

"She refers to them as her older sisters."

The source reassured that Gia does not plan to move in with the friend permanently, nor will she leave her three younger sisters hanging.

"She knows her family needs her and she loves her dad Joe to pieces, but it would be uncomfortable to talk to him about woman things."
