Famous Bravo felon, Teresa Giudice was on the Dr. Oz Show today. The last time Teresa was on Dr, Oz, he introduced her as inmate number 65703-050 and she strolled out in black pants and a top with wide black and white prison stripes. She took no accountability for any of her 41 federal crimes and played the victim. Let’s see how she does this time.
This time Teresa is sporting enough waist length weave for three people. It’s a lot of hair. Teresa starts of talking about her mother’s passing. She says that the eleven and a half months she was in prison, she lost time with her mother.
Dr. Oz move on and ask Teresa to talk about Joe’s drinking problem. She says that Joe loves making homemade wine. They have a wine making room in their house. She says Joe started drinking a lot when his dad passed away, they were also going through their legal problems and he drank to cope. She points out that Joe has been in prison for 18 months, so he’s been sober 18 months. In her book she talked about him being drunk the morning he turned himself in. Teresa said that there were so many people at the house the night before telling Joe goodbye. She said they did shots all night long. She said she was upset by all the company and really just wanted to be alone with Joe on his final night.
She says that Joe has done a lot of reflecting while in prison. He is trying to better himself and become a better person. He has apologized to Teresa but that apology didn’t come until after her mother died and she asked for the apology. Teresa seems really emotional. She says we will see her relationship with Joe play out on the show. Teresa is tearful about missing her mother. She says they would talk constantly on the phone everyday.
Dr. Oz goes back to Joe and sidles up to the big question. She says she was really mad when she was writing the book, especially after her mom died. She was really angry with Joe because she lost a year’s worth of time with her mother because she was in jail. She start to say, “For something I didn’t do…” but stops herself and says “my husband told me to sign the papers for two homes at a closing,” and she did. Then she talks about all the mortgage brokers and lawyers in the room, she didn’t think she was doing anything wrong. She always downplays what she actually did. She got super excited when she shared, “I had the best credit! Over 800!” Now she is building up her credit again. She went from tears to happiness over a credit score. That was really odd.
After the break, we get to the health portion of the interview. Teresa says that she always wanted three kids so after her first three kids, she was done. But then one day, Joe came home and said that he had heard about IVF and that you can pick the gender of your child. Joe wanted a boy. So Teresa just sort of ends the story with they tried IVF but it didn’t work. Dr. Oz says that there was a financial problem with the IVF as well, “which seems to be a recurring theme for you.” Zing! Teresa says that it was very expensive and when it didn’t work Joe refused to pay for the treatment. Teresa of course says she was encouraging Joe to just pay it because she didn’t even want it to get out that they had tried IVF. But Joe didn’t pay for the treatment. She says when she came home from being “away” she paid it off. She paid off everything. I am not sure that is true.
They end with Teresa showing Dr. Oz a yoga move. The entire show was weird. He said he was going to talk about divorce. He did not. He said he was going to talk about a medical issue that is currently having an impact on Teresa. He did not.
The only interesting thing to me was that Teresa seemed to be explaining away all of the anger she felt toward Joe that she outlined in the book as if things were better now. She didn’t say things were better now but she was pointing out that all the anger toward Joe was at the time she was writing and sort of implied it doesn’t apply today. The last time she was on the show was way more interesting.
Sounds like Teresa is just setting the scene for when Joe gets out of prison. Marital discord, that should be good for a season or two.
Exactly! Playing the Bravo game, as usual. She will never divorce Joe, especially because of the way the girls would react (well, maybe not Gia, who seems to have her own issues with her dad). The only thing that could throw a huge spanner in the works is if Joe gets deported, which I don’t see happening. This is all part of the script to keep Teresa’s story interesting, and it will change, as necessary, as time goes on.
Teresa is aware that Joe with TOTALLY be deported. That is why she is fine trashing him all over the media this week.
Deflect, deflect, deflect. She needs to swipe her new cast mates pig tails and end up in the real Oz of better yet ride a broom and wear striped stockings with some ruby encrusted slippers. The monster mansion lands slap on her. A lot of hard working people were robbed. No heart. No Brain. Nor the courage to admit culpability for last and present trangressions.
Like your old post said, liars lie, that is what they do. She has never been honest to us, I mean she has no legal responsibility to but morally she skirts shit. I cant believe she is only 45-46, whatever, she looks a good 5-10 years older than that. She is the snake that ate its own tail. For some reason that metaphor makes sense in my head. Hope all this was worth it, you know, I think for her it totally was, all except the part of getting caught.
Teresa is a lost soul and it has a lot do with her ignorance in trusting Joe way too much. It puzzles me how many wives in the 21st century place their lives in the hands of their husbands. It’s archaic to say the least.
Dave, I signed papers I knew I shouldn’t sign trying to keep the peace. Easy way, I was so tired.
Awwww the people who thinks Teresa just signed some papers because her husband told her to are so cute. And terribly misinformed.
They deserve a pat on the top of the head….and a swift kick in the butt!!!
She makes me sick. Bravo has been re-running the early seasons and even back then you can see that Teresa was incapable of taking responsibility for her choices. She’s probably been this way her whole life. I”m sick of her blaming Joe for the whole mess. Deny, Deny, Deflect. She’s never hurt anyone, everyone gangs up on her and is a, hater. She’s a classic narcissist, incapable of taking accountability or showing remorse for her behavior. Her cousin Kathy said it, “The lights are on but nobody’s home.”
I didn’t see the interview but I think she’s preparing her fans for the inevitable divorce when she knows for certain Joe will be deported. We’ll hear about the abuse, yada yada and they’ll be a book about the divorce then another about being single…
Wait, so did they just spontaneously get pregnant with daughter #4? How does Joe think you only pay for fertility treatments when they “work?” I have friends who paid for IUI and later IVF for 6 years before they got pregnant. They still had to pay for the services and treatments before that.
I doubt that it was just Joe who decided not to pay. Was Teresa incapable of writing a check? Using a credit card? I didn’t watch the first season, but I’ve heard several times of her flashing a stack of cash that Joe gave her to go shopping. If she was so concerned about paying the bill, the fertility clinic should have been her first stop on the way to the store.
Exactly. She keeps acting like she had no autonomous ability to do anything, but it’s preposterous. Can anyone imagine shrugging your shoulders and saying, “M’kay” if your spouse announced he or she wasn’t going to pay a stack of medical bills…or ANY bills…while you were living in a mansion and spending on crap like your own wine making room?!
a wine making room is not crap
Let me clarify – I was not calling a wine room crap as an entity (shit, I wish I had a pickling and preserving room and my own root cellar…I’d take a wine making room, too). I was attempting to point out that’s it’s crap to HAVE and brag about a wine making room and a mansion and extravagances when you aren’t paying your bills and stiffing people.
lol Agreed.
My dreadful expectations for the new season seems like it will be exactly as expected. I swear, if she comes off as a shiny statue of perfection (made up, don’t even care if it makes sense) I’m so out, so fast. Which actually I could predict without her needing Dr. Oz to assist.
I actually can’t stand any of the cast.
Happy wife not contrite.
LOL, great callback!
I didn’t watch last season. I was hoping more people would boycott the show and that bravo would give us a new city. Sadly people will talk of their disgust but keep watching and give the felons a platform. Teresa just infuriates me, the nerve to brag about credit scores!
She’s still blaming everyone else but herself. She needs to take accountability about what she did to cause this. Her husband didn’t have a gun to her head to get those loans for their extravagant lifestyle. I’m surprised she still isn’t blame Jacqueline or Caroline or her going to Jail.
Denial by bravo
Criminal by bravo
Teresa did make statements that Jac ratted them out to the feds. I don’t think she will ever admit to any wrongdoing.
She;s full of shit.
I actually like Teresa and might be one of the few people who do, having said that I find it interesting the shift towards how she felt about Joe in prison to now. I was supposed to see that sh had so much anger toward joe ..
I was watching the season one rerun the other day and it was very telling.
Teresa was defending/justifying herself for spoiling her girls rotten by saying her father had always spoiled her and given her everything she wanted and look how good she turned out.
Felon.
There was so much lying and foreshadowing.
Forgot to add, Danielle Staub is insane. She’s certifiably off her rocker.
Since before he went to prison, they were talking about his problems with alcohol. There is a problem called Residential Drug Abuse Treatment Program (RDAP), which could get a federal inmate as much as a year off of their sentence. The addiction has to be verifiable. This is what these folks have been angling for since before he went in. Still scheming they are.
Yeah, you need to click on some links. It’s been discussed at length here.
Absolutely no remorse for her actions….Still blaming everyone else.
Same story different day
And that was a ridiculous amount of hair.
Teresa is so confused about what she has in ghost written book, she can’t keep a story straight.
Joe and Teresa were partners in everything. Innocent? “I just signed what Joe told me to”…not
IMHO the woman has the IQ of a gnat.
She’s confused because she can’t keep the lies straight anymore. Every time she moves her lips another lie pops out.
