Joe Giudice told Andy Cohen in a second part of a Bravo interview with him and his wife, “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star Teresa Giudice, that he has a drinking problem, reports TheWrap.com.
Cohen asked Joe Giudice whether he felt guilty about his actions. He was sentenced to 41 months in prison for fraud, while Teresa was given a 15-month sentence.
“I did everything I could to get her out of it, but it didn’t work,” he said.
Addressing his wife in another clip, he added, “Before you started this ‘Real Housewives’ stuff, I think I used to only drink on the weekends. Now I drink every day.”
He said he was drinking wine and could easily drink two bottles by himself.
“I might have a little problem, yeah. I’m not gonna lie,” he said. “One bottle is like sucking a bottle of milk. It’s like nothing.”
Joe and Teresa Giudice
I’m sorry, but Andy Cohen in particular and Bravo have lost a lot of credibility with these interviews. Teresa Guidice lied, either to the court or in this interview. She was “shocked” about receiving a jail term? The court transcripts are public, and indicated she was given ample opportunity during the plea hearing to ask if she did not understand anything, including the plea included recommended jail time. She repeatedly told the judge she understood, had read the agreement, etc. She is lieing and Bravo has fallen for it. Shame on you. Bravo/Universal should tonight provide a statement that the comments made are contrary to the public record of the plea hearing. Continuing to give her a forum (and money) is unethical at this point.
