Teresa Giudice Wants Ex-Husband Joe Giudice Back in USA So He Can Help More With Money

It’s been a decade since Teresa Giudice and Joe Giudice were charged with a laundry list of financial crimes, turning their lives, and The Real Housewives of New Jersey, totally upside down. Of course, they were both thrown in the slammer, Joe was deported back to Italy, and the family was broken.

Since then, Joe has relocated to the Bahamas, which has made visits with his four daughters just a little bit easier, but still, they’ve all made it clear: they would prefer to have him back in the United States. The Giudice girls just want their dad back!

Now, Teresa is saying the same thing, but it’s not just because she wants her daughters to reunite with her dad. Surely, that’s part of it, but in a recent clip from her podcast, Namaste B$tches, she revealed that she really wants Joe back in the United States so that he can help her out with money.

Teresa Giudice and Joe Giudice have always loved money

Teresa admitted that she wouldn’t be opposed to Joe coming back into the country for one reason, and that’s money. Can you blame her? They have four daughters, and college is expensive. Plus, Teresa owes thousands and thousands of dollars in taxes. Every dollar counts, and Teresa’s ready for Joe to pitch in — legally, of course.

On the podcast, the RHONJ star explained, “I hope he does [come back to America], because trust me, the opportunities are better in America, and I’ve been doing everything on my own … I want help.”

“The money that he makes in the Bahamas is not the same money he would make in America. Totally different,” Teresa continued. “That’s why he moved from Italy to the Bahamas. Because there was no opportunity in Italy. Could you imagine just being sent to another country after living in America for all of these years? It’s very sad.”

Although Teresa would love for Joe to come back to the United States to help pitch in financially, she admitted that she wasn’t sure it would ever happen. Luckily, their daughter Gia Giudice is studying immigration law, so she might be their one hope! Earlier this year, she admitted that her career goal was to have his immigration status “reevaluated.” No pressure, Gia.
