Joe Giudice may be guilty in the courtroom, but he’s innocent at home! Teresa Giudice is defending her husband after he was accused of cheating on his wife while she was in jail. Although The Real Housewives of New Jersey star is in denial about the claims, will she change her mind when she sees photos of the rendezvous?
"No women has ever come up to me and said that my husband was having an affair with them," the Bravo star told People. "It's sad that if there are any women around him people take pictures of him and sell the photos to a magazine. I feel bad for him."
The mother-of-four explained how when photos have surfaced of her husband with mystery women in the past, she knows who they are. “He could be out with friends that are single and, you know if they're talking to girls, that doesn't mean that Joe is doing anything just because a girl is sitting at the same table as them,” she said. “So I feel bad for him in a way. Because the poor guy, you know, he's not doing that."
Only weeks after Teresa, 43, reported to prison, he reportedly cheated with 30-year-old model Jamie Jackson in Atlantic City. “Jamie came out of their bathroom buttoning her blouse and crying hysterically,” a source said of the woman, who allegedly spent 20 minutes with Joe in a master suite.
