“The show is how Teresa makes her means and supports her family, and we all know she needs the money now,” a source told HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY. “Not only do she and Joe owe hundreds of thousands of dollars in restitution fees, but she has four children to support and realizes that her husband is going to jail for over 3 years so he won’t be bringing in any money.”
After Teresa serves her 15 month sentence starting Jan. 5, the reality star and Fabulicious author will be a single mom to four kids as Joe Giudice reports to jail for over three years. The website also reports that Teresa isn’t staying on the show for the spotlight whatsoever.
“For all of the judgement out there with people saying that she cares about fame more than her family, she is not on the show for the limelight — she sees it as her only way to be a responsible mother and bring in money for her family.”
Since all the drama in Teresa’s personal life has been broadcast so publicly, it’s easy to understand why her recent troubles would be a part of RHONJ in the upcoming seasons. Hollywood Life's sources reports:
“RHONJ ratings will clearly spike with Teresa and Joe’s storyline so you can bet that the network will support the Giudices and do everything in their power to keep them on seasons going forward, that’s why they announced their WWHL interview just moments after the couple left court.”
