Joe Giudice’s announcement that he and Teresa are getting a divorce shocked many but that is not to say it was completely unexpected, especially to their close ones! You may be aware that this decision is something Joe and Teresa have been discussing for a while and it definitely did not ‘come overnight.’
One insider tells HollywoodLife that the Giudices’ inner circle knew the announcement would most likely come at some point.
Joe took to his social media earlier today to post a side by side pic of him and Teresa with the caption: ‘It’s Time To Let Go.’
While most expected it, it was still pretty sad to see since they have been married for over two decades!
Now, the source says that ‘This decision isn’t shocking to those around either of them,’ and that includes their four daughters who are ‘doing as well as possible given it all.’
They went on to dish that ‘Teresa and Joe have been living separate lives. This decision’s not something that came overnight and they’ve known this split was happening for a while. They still talk all the time, but Teresa’s really struggled with what Joe put her and their family through. Her priorities have changed since both she and Joe went [to prison] and her focus is raising her daughters and getting her dad’s health back on track.’

Furthermore, the source mentioned that Teresa is not interested in getting remarried or even dating anyone else again!
Teresa has been doing a good job taking care of the girls by herself while Joe was in prison and she knows she can do it in the future as well since Joe risks being deported to his native country of Italy.
That being said, the Real Housewives star has made it very clear before that if that happens, she and the girls would stay in the States.

Obviously, in that situation, there was no way to make it work as a married couple but it’s also safe to say that after so much time of them being separated because of their prison sentences, they’ve also simply grown apart.
