‘Real Housewives’ Teresa Giudice’s pre-prison release makeover

Giudice’s husband Joe is set to begin his 41-month prison sentence in March. “Joe kind of stood off to the side for a second and let them all greet their mother”, a source told People.”Then the whole family kind of embraced each other and had a moment together”.

It certainly is turning out to be a happy holiday for the Giudice family, because after serving almost a year in prison, Teresa Giudice has finally returned home.

Fallen: Teresa Giudice has had to put her fame to one side since her fraud conviction.

She was seen arriving home in a black SUV later in the morning, according to ABC News.

Her lawyer, James Leonard, told reporters: “In the auto ride here she was extremely upbeat”.

PEOPLE also learned that she took some extra time primping (about a half hour’s worth!) in the prison’s public bathroom before leaving this morning.

One of the star couples behind the “Real Housewives of New Jersey” will be trading the drama of reality TV for prison.

“She wanted to make sure she looked good when she came out”, the source says.

Bravo reportedly can’t wait to film Teresa’s life outside of prison as she returns to her daily routine, however, cameras were prohibited from taping her walking out of jail, according to TMZ.

Despite reports in a British newspaper that “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star Joe Giudice was seen driving a vehicle, in violation of a judge’s order, the Montville man’s attorney denies the claims.

Who knows, maybe Teresa’s man was busy running errands for his wife’s release – especially since the brunette beauty is on house arrest until February.

Giudice was sent to prison to serve a 15-month sentence in January.
