Teresa & Joe Giudice Will ‘Live Separately’ After He’s Deported, Costar Dolores Catania Claims

As RadarOnline.com first reported, Teresa Giudice will NOT be living la dolce vita with her felon husband in Italy.

The reality star's Real Housewives of New Jersey costar and close friend Dolores Catania confirmed the news in an exclusive interview with RadarOnline.com.

“I don’t think so,” Dolores admitted when RadarOnline.com asked if Teresa was planning to move overseas with her jailbird hubby Joe Giudice.

“A lot of families live separately,” she insisted. “They make it work.”

As RadarOnline.com exclusively reported last month, Joe Giudice will be deported to his native Italy after he is sprung from behind bars — and the 46-year-old dad will be “ineligible” to return to the United States.

Judge John Ellington of the York County Immigration Court in Pennsylvania explained in a written decision that the convict’s re-admission status into the country was determined once he committed “aggravated felonies” as a permanent resident in the country.

In addition to her problems with her husband, Teresa, 46, is “going through it” right now when it comes to dealing with difficult issues, noted Dolores.

“Her dad is in the hospital with pneumonia. He’s still in the hospital. He went home and came back,” she told RadarOnline.com. “It’s so much. I call her all the time, I check on her. I’m always checking on her.”

Despite all the setbacks, Dolores insisted her friend and costar’s “a survivor.”
