With Teresa Giudice and her husband Joe Giudice facing potentially 50 years in prison if charged with the 39 criminal charges they were indicted with, her family will step up to help raise their four children.
The Giudices were once feuding with Teresa’s brother, Joe Gorga, and her sister-in-law Melissa Gorga, as documented on their show Real Housewives of New Jersey, but sources say they will “of course” step in if needed.
An insider told Us Weekly “as will [cousins] Rich and Kathy Wakile, especially since the kids are involved."
The Giudices have four girls; Gia, 12, Gabriella, 10, Milania, 7, and Aduriana, 3
Teresa’s attorney said, "The family is handling themselves with great dignity, but it's very traumatic," Teresa's attorney, Henry E. Klingeman, told Us. "And when you have four small girls, it's tough for everybody, including the girls."
As we previously reported, both Teresa and Joe posted $500,000 bail and will be back in court next month.
