‘Real Housewives of New Jersey’ reunion: Is Teresa Giudice leaving the show?

Tonight marks the season finale for “The Real Housewives of New Jersey,” but based on the fact that a reunion special is still to come, it is hardly the end of the road this season … or the end of the drama.

The question that we have to wonder here is simple: Is this reunion the end of the road for Teresa Giudice? Is she going to leave after this special is over? This is something that she certainly teases at the end of the video below.

Practically, it would of course be understandable if Teresa did in fact end up leaving, if for no other reason than that she was sentenced to 15 months of jail over the past month. (Her husband Joe was sentenced to 41 months, and that will begin when her sentence is complete.)

Logistically, it does make sense that Teresa would end up leaving the show, since she won’t be around to film it. With that being said, we have a hard time thinking that this is really it for her. The Giudice family is going to need money and a platform to navigate through these difficult few months ahead, and we have a hard time thinking that she is going to be waving goodbye forever. She could in theory do some work on another season before reporting for jail time, or Joe could film some scenes in a guest role while she is in.

Elsewhere, there’s going to be plenty of drama in the reunion with Dina Manzo, Melissa Gorga, and others … and it will be as insane as you would expect.
