Teresa Giudice's Call From FCI Danbury To Air on Bravo

By DANIEL HUBBARD (Patch Staff)

A three-part special chronicling the Giudice family and how they are coping while matriarch Teresa serves out the rest of her prison sentence will air on Bravo beginning Oct. 11 at 8 p.m.

The special will feature Giudice speaking to her family on the phone while she is serving her 15-month sentence at the Danbury Correctional Facility on fraud and conspiracy charges.

“Oh, please God bring me home to my family as soon as possible,” Giudice can be heard saying in a promotional video on Bravo’s website.

The special follows Teresa’s husband Joe as he continues to raise the couple’s four daughters, and her extended family, including her brother, Joe Gorga, sister-in-law Melissa, and cousin Rosie Pierri.

Teresa remains a ”major presence and driving force in the family” with daily check-in calls and frequent family prison visits, Bravo said in a press release.

Giudice began her sentence Jan. 5. She is expected to be released in December. Joe will begin serving a 41-month long sentence once Giudice is released so one parent can always be home with the couple’s children.
