The reality TV personality and her family have had a rough few years with a tax evasion conviction, jail time and now the possibility that patriarch, Joe Giudice, who is currently serving his sentence, may be deported to Italy when he is released. Through it all, Teresa has been strong for her four daughters and has kept her household together, all while shooting episodes of the hit Bravo show, now in its ninth season.

The mom of four loves posting pics of her beautiful girls but found herself in some hot water when she recently posted a photo of her youngest daughter, Audriana, at her 9th birthday party wearing makeup and a mature outfit many of her followers felt was inappropriate and slammed her for it.
It's always tough to be in the spotlight, but Teresa knows what works best for her and her family. Here are 21 IG snaps from the RHONJ star's best life and what makes them so special!
1. She Loves Her Pops
Why the best? Teresa adores her father, Giacinto Gorga, who now lives with her and her four daughters. The father and daughter seem close in this snap, which was taken August 2018 while they were out for lunch. Giacinto was recently hospitalized twice with pneumonia, but son Joe Gorga told Radar, “He’s alright, a little bit of pneumonia again. Hopefully in a couple of days he’ll be out.”
2. She Misses Her Mom
Why the best? The reality TV star lost her mother, Antonia, in March 2017 after a battle with pneumonia crushed her. This photo was taken in December of 2016, just months before Antonia died. Teresa has spoken about her mother's death, saying on Brandi Glanville's Unfiltered podcast, "I miss her so much, and it’s just the hardest thing. Life’s good, and life sucks. I needed my mom still. She was 66. She was too young."
3. Sibling Matters
Why the best? Although these Italian siblings have shown their bad tempers on RHONJ, Teresa is still close with her brother, Joe, especially after the death of their mother. In this Insta-snap, the sister and brother are celebrating Joe's birthday in 2017 with lots of hashtags “#happybirthday#brothersisterlove #famiglia #laughs.” Joe's wife Melissa Gorga, however, isn't on Teresa's Instagram very often. She and her sister-in-law have famously always been at odds.
4. She Is A Gym Fanatic
Why the best? Teresa's Instagram is filled with posts of her working out – and she shows off her toned body every chance she gets. This pic is with her personal trainer, Nicole Greco-Peepas, as the two finished a boxing class last March. Nicole once said about training the reality TV star, “Teresa is really positive and always ready to work hard when she gets to the gym.”
5. Minor Use Of Filters
Why the best? Teresa has loads of pics with her friends, but she rarely uses cute filters like the pink floppy bunny ears and button nose featured in this snap with her pal Rosana Costa taken in February of 2017.
6. A Couple Of Beauties
Why the best? Teresa has many Insta-snaps with gal pals like her long-time makeup artist, Priscilla DiStasio. In this pic, taken in the Bahamas in December 2018, Teresa's caption said it all “Love my girl @mspriscillanyc.”
7. Another Heart-Filled Filter
Why the best? Here's another shot from last February of Teresa and Priscilla with sweet hearts shaping their frame. Teresa captions the pic, “Love my girl @mspriscillanyc #sistersfromanothermister.” Nothing like support from your girlfriends.
8. Besties Selfie
Why the best? If you go through Teresa's Instagram, you'll see she doesn't usually do the snap-in-the-bathroom-mirror pose. But here she snaps away with one of her best friends Dana Panaro in October 2017. It looks like these two have known each other a long time.
9. Even Business Meetings Are Fun
Why the best? Sure, Teresa let a grainy snap appear on her IG account, but it's because she's having a good time with her “Italian friend,” Lorenzo Randisi, a brand developer and entrepreneur. Taken earlier in 2018, Teresa captions the pic, “Good catching up with my Italian friend @lorenzorandisi #italiansdoitbetter #lorenzorandisi #manhattan #nyc #italians #businessmeeting #somethingcooking.” The RHONJ star does love her hashtags.
10. Shout-Out to Her Fans
Why the best? Teresa also loves to thank her fans for sticking by her. She captioned this selfie from March 2017, "Sweet Dreams," just wanted to say "thank you" again for all the continuous love & support from all of you! You help keep this smile on my face! Love, love, love you!"
