Marchese spoke with Fox News Monday and said that she has spoken to her various times since taping the reunion.

"I really reach out just to say 'hey how are you? Just thinking of you. Hoping you're ok and everyone is doing alright.' She's doing what any mother would be doing. She's basically shutting the world out, and concentrating on her children. I commend her for that. I mean what else are you going to do? She's doing what needs to be done."

While Giudice plans to begin her 15-month sentence on January 5 (she and her husband Joe Giudice pleaded guilty to serious fraud counts back in March), viewers saw Marchse and her husband Jim experience their own drama on the show. Jim was a prosecutor for Joe's case, which caused for much tension as he was consistently called out for being a liar.

Amber opened up about whether being on the hit Bravo show has impacted his career or their marriage.

"I hasn't hurt is business whatsoever. Actually his business is doing very well. Thank God. As far as his involvement, he did not want to be involved. He set out to just be the husband and the supporting and loving father. It did not work out that way. He started to be a part of it, and he was like I can't be half pregnant, so now I'm involved."

She said that Jim's decision to have several appearances on the show caused him to be her "alliance."

As far as if she will return for the seventh season, she said she has no news as of yet.
