Teresa Giudice is still packing them in.

"Sold out and needed more, so she still has a lot of support," Depaola said. "The line was crazy… a lot of fans. And that's it on that question."
Depaola said that both Teresa and her husband Joe -- who is also under legal fire as he was named in the indictment -- kept in good spirits at a dinner after the event. (As we previously reported, the Bravo stars, in a 39-count indictment, are accused of conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud, bank fraud, making false statements on loan applications and bankruptcy fraud.)
Kim said that despite the rough patch, Teresa is keeping busy with the typical activities that have moms occupied in the dog days of summer.
"She's with her daughters, she's with her kids," Kim said. "She was going down the shore. Next week, she will be home a lot because Gia has cheerleading and of course all the school stuff starts."
The Real Housewives of New Jersey airs Sundays on Bravo at 8/7c.
