Teresa Giudice and hubby Joe Giudice will spend lots of time in prison in the coming months and years–but will they serve out all their time as a married couple? Rumor has it, the former Real Housewives of New Jersey star might divorce her husband. She even said in court, on the day they were sentenced, that he had ‘screwed her over.’
According to a report from the New York Daily News, a source claims Teresa Giudice was a puppet of sorts for Joe.
“At the hearing, Teresa said through clenched teeth that she feels like Joe had royally screwed her over,” the source said. “According to Teresa, she only went along with what Joe told her to do. She isn’t smart enough to come up with a scheme to milk hundreds of thousands of dollars from banks.”

The mother of four was said to be “stunned” that she was ordered to serve her time in prison–15 months–ahead of her husband. The judge ordered this so Joe Giudice can care for the couple’s four children. He will then serve his 41 months when Teresa is released.

The couple’s eldest daughter, Gia Giudice, is trying to maintain optimism in light of what must be an unusually difficult situation for a 13-year-old. She recently tweeted some of her feelings.

It seems as though Teresa Giudice has a lot of thinking to do if she is truly planning to divorce Joe Giudice. Should she wait until she has returned from serving her prison time so that her children can at least believe while their mother is behind bars that their family is somewhat intact?
