Teresa Giudice
Teresa Giudice is teaching exercise classes to fellow inmates at the Federal Correction Institution in Danbury, according to a report by People magazine.
The “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star, who’s serving 15 months for bankruptcy fraud, has a job working in the kitchen and is one of several women who take turns leading exercises classes, her attorney told the magazine.
“Prison is all about establishing and maintaining a routine, and she has done that,” James J. Leonard Jr. said. “She has adapted well.”
The 42-year-old reality show star and her husband, Giuseppe “Joe” Giudice, pleaded guilty last year to hiding assets from bankruptcy creditors and submitting phony loan applications to get some $5 million in mortgages and construction loans. Joe Giudice also pleaded guilty to failing to pay taxes totaling more than $200,000.
The husband will start serving his 41-month sentence when Teresa Giudice is released, an arrangement aimed at ensuring the couple’s four daughters will have one parent at home at all times.
