The judge staggered Teresa and Joe Giudice’s prison sentences for fraud so the couple’s four daughters would always have a parent with them. But the attempt makes no difference for the Giudice family, as Joe is never around!
“Joe is a completely unfit parent,” a source told OK! magazine. “There was good reason Teresa was so worried about leaving him in charge.”
Instead of taking care of Gia, 14, Gabriella, 10, Milania, 8, and Audriana, 5, The Real Housewives of New Jersey star often hangs out at Rails Steakhouse in Towaco for hours at the time. “Joe knows he’s going to jail in a matter of months, so drowning his sorrows is more important to him than his daughters,” the insider said.
With Gia as the “substitute mother” for her younger sisters, the girls “have no structure.” “Joe’s in-laws aren’t watching them, they have no one looking out for their best interests,” the source added.
Although the Bravo star admitted on Watch What Happens Live that he feels guilty for putting his family in the position they’re in now, it isn’t stopping him from abandoning his responsibilities to his daughters. “Joe should be ashamed of himself for letting his wife and his family down yet again,” the insider said.
