Teresa Giudice‘s recent tax woes are not being filmed for the potential 15th season of The Real Housewives of New Jersey, and that may be a sign that the Bravo reality series has run its course.

As she and Luis Ruelas, 50, face nearly $3 million in back taxes, as well as multiple tax liens, Teresa’s castmates are said to be “[worried]” about the show’s future as an insider claims that the fact that cameras aren’t rolling is “very telling” to the network’s interest in the series.
“It is very telling that cameras are not up and filming Teresa and her latest financial crisis,” a source told OK! Magazine on April 7. “In the past, production would have rushed to capture this on camera. There’s so much real, raw stuff going on, it would only make sense that Bravo would want to film this.”
According to the report, the lack of production offers a “deeper picture” as to what is going on behind the scenes.
“Clearly Bravo isn’t as interested in RHONJ or in Teresa’s story as they once were,” the insider stated. “It’s starting to make the cast question if the show will ever be returning to the screen, as they are losing quality storytelling they could be obtaining right now.”
As for the rest of the cast, they’ve reportedly begun “worrying.”
“No one knows what’s going to happen… but the lack of taping certainly isn’t helping to quench people’s fears the show will return and or remain the same,” the source explained.
With RHONJ up in the air, Teresa is focusing her attention on other projects, including her “Party With a Housewife” events, which are set to take place in Washington, D.C., Cincinnati, Ohio, and Chicago, Illinois, in June.
“Did you get your tickets yet?! I’m coming to DC, Cincy, and Chicago in June and can’t wait to meet all of you!” Teresa announced this week on Instagram. “My VIPs get a meet & greet, priority Q&A submissions, a much better chance of coming up on stage and partying with me, and more! We’ll be spilling the tea, dancing, playing games — and yes, there will be FABULOUS prizes for our winners!”
“Click on the link in bio to get your tickets! Love love love you!!” she added.
After promoting the events, Teresa received plenty of excitement from her fans and followers, some of whom asked her to come to their cities, as well as some backlash.
“Someone needs some money?!?” one person asked.
“Pay to watch a tax-evading grifter? NO!” another proclaimed.
‘Pay your bills,” advised a third.
And a fourth wrote, “Get that money, girl.”
