Things aren’t easy for the Giudice family right now.

As Teresa Giudice completes the 3rd month of her 15 month prison sentence, her husband Joe is having difficulties in the financial department as he raises their 3 children by himself. A new report from RadarOnline claims the Real Housewives of New Jersey star is pitching her book idea while behind bars, hoping to land an advance form a publishing company for her family.

“The family is broke and has absolutely no money coming in….and there is nothing in a savings or checking account. Joe still hasn’t gotten a job, and isn’t even looking. Teresa thinks she can land an advance from a publishing company,” the source told Radar.

The book will highlight all of Giudice’s experiences behind bars at the Danbury Correctional Facility. How are the Giudices getting money right now since their main money maker is locked up? The source added, “the family is being financially supported by Teresa’s parents, and Joe’s mom.”

We recently reported that Traci Lynn Johnson would be joining the cast for RHONJ’s upcoming season, however, Radar confirmed today that she and her husband decided it was a better idea to not be a part of the Bravo series. That means Giudice’s spot on the show is still up for grabs.

Who do you think will take it?
