The drama between Joe Giudice and his ex-wife Teresa Giudice is reigniting after Joe publicly accused Teresa of "forgetting" about the $400,000 debt—money he paid to hire top lawyers to help her during her 2015 legal battle.
In a recent interview, Joe expressed his frustration: "I did everything I could to help Teresa avoid the worst sentence. I paid for the lawyers, took care of her, and now she’s living in luxury while I’ve been forgotten?"
Joe claims that when Teresa was facing fraud charges and the possibility of a severe sentence, he stepped up and spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on high-profile attorneys to lessen her punishment. As a result, Teresa only served 11 months in prison, while Joe was later deported from the U.S. and lost everything.
Now, as Teresa enjoys a lavish life with her new husband, Luis Ruelas—buying million-dollar mansions and taking luxury vacations—Joe insists he has never been repaid a single dollar of the money he spent to help her.
According to a close source, Joe has brought up the debt multiple times, only to be ignored. "Teresa has everything now, while Joe has been left behind. It’s just not fair," the insider revealed.
Meanwhile, Teresa has remained silent and has yet to respond to Joe’s accusations. RHONJ fans are now divided—some believe Teresa should take responsibility and pay Joe back, while others argue that Joe shouldn’t expect anything from his ex-wife after their divorce.
The real question remains: Did Teresa truly forget, or is she deliberately ignoring the money Joe spent to save her? Will Joe ever recover his $400K, or is this just another painful chapter in his life? One thing is certain—this drama is far from over!
