‘Real Housewives Of New Jersey’ Star Teresa Giudice & Joe Giudice Split After 20 Years

Another reality TV couple bites the dust!

“Real Housewives of New Jersey” star Teresa Giudice has officially split from her husband, Joe Giudice after 20 years of marriage.

The two married in October 1999, but according to one source, things haven’t been right between them since Joe Giudice went to jail on fraud charges in 2016 to serve his 41-month sentence. He was deported to Italy after finishing his time behind bars. He was born in Italy but relocated to the U.S. with his parents when he was a child.

The insider said Teresa has been living her best life for quite a while.

“Teresa has been living the life of a single mother ever since Joe was incarcerated. She has dedicated herself to her children, her career and has focused only on that. She always knew there was a possibility that Joe would get deported but it all happened so fast after his release.”

“Teresa is very realistic about the past. She has known for a while that things weren’t going to work out between them. Their marriage had been through far too much for them to start over. She’s ready for a new start for 2020.”

Joe Giudice seemed to confirm the split with a cryptic Instagram message Tuesday (Dec. 17) and referenced a link about their separation.

The two also got real about their issues when they accused each other of being unfaithful while the other was in jail. Teresa Giudice was sentenced to 15 months for the same charges as Joe.

He also shared a message Saturday (Dec. 14), where Teresa left a comment.

“Life is too short to be angry. Life is too short to be resentful. Life is too short to hold on to the past. Life is too short not to love. Life is too short not to be happy. Life is too short not to forgive. Life is too short not to live our lives the way we want it.”

“Love life. Appreciate the people in it. Enjoy the present. Seize the moment. Life is worth living for, so let’s LIVE!”

Teresa commented “Very True” with a heart-eyed Emoji.

They’ll very much be a part of one another’s lives as they share four daughters  Gia, 18, Gabriella, 15, Milania, 13, and Audriana, 10.

Prayers for the Giudice family!
