Teresa Giudice Slams Documentary For “False Claims,” Reveals How RHONJ Producers ‘Faked’ Money Scene on Season 1, & Opens Up About Her Faith in God & Luis’ Role, Plus Relating to Porsha’s RHOA Filming Drama With Dennis

Teresa Giudice shaded ID’s Hollywood Demons documentary on the latest episode of her podcast, taking aim at their “false” claims and slamming them for using her image.

After her ex-husband Joe Giudice, 52, suggested that the IRS director featured on the special wasn’t real, the 52-year-old Real Housewives of New Jersey star refuted allegations made against her as she spoke of going to church and her faith with Luis Ruelas, 50, explained how she relates to Porsha Williams, 43, and more.

“It said in there, which is false, it said I said in one of my documents … that I was a realtor. I never said I was a realtor, and Joe never said I was a realtor,” Teresa stated on the May 1 episode of Turning the Tables. “[And] I didn’t get paid for [Hollywood Demons]. I couldn’t believe they used my photo on the main thing.”

Clapping back at claims the IRS made in regard to a season one scene in which she was seen spending tons of cash at a furniture store with Jacqueline Laurita, 55, Teresa revealed the scene was fabricated.

“I went into the store with Jacqueline Laurita, and Jacqueline Laurita will vouch for me. We went into the furniture store, and what did I buy? I only bought sofas and my bedroom set … that’s it,” Teresa recalled. “They faked it and said that I bought … I think they showed the calculator. It either showed $140,000 or $120,000 .. That was fake. I did not spend that much money.”

According to Teresa, producers of RHONJ asked her and Jacqueline if they had cash on them, and told her to count their money as cameras rolled.

“They made it look like I had $120,000 cash on me in that little Louis Vuitton bag that I brought. I did not spend $120,000 cash on [RHONJ]. That’s so fake,” she stated. “That was my first season, so I listened to the producers. I didn’t know what I was doing, and that was stupid of me to do that.”

After being faced with her fair share of challenges over the years since joining RHONJ, including spending 11 months behind bars, Teresa has returned to her faith and God, as has her husband.

“I brought God back into my life. Luis’ dad, when he moved near us, we all started going to church together, and God is so good,” she declared. “Luis and I go to church every Sunday. I’m so into God. Luis sends a prayer … every morning to all of us [in a group chat].”

“We’re very into God. You have to have faith … who am I gonna turn to? I only have Luis and my children, those are the most important people in my life and the only other important person in my life is God,” she continued.

Then, looking to the currently airing 16th season of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, Teresa said she relates to Porsha due to the way her former fiance, Dennis McKinley, the father of her daughter, 4-year-old Pilar, began filming with Drew Sidora, 40.

“I feel like what happened to her, she got side swiped, that’s her baby daddy, why didn’t he tell her?“ she wondered. “That’s exactly what happened to me. I got a phone call right before season three started, right before my nephew’s christening … the new housewives are gonna be my sister in law and my cousin Kathy.”

After learning that Melissa Gorga, 45, Joe Gorga, 50, and Kathy Wakile, 59, had all joined the show behind her back, Teresa was left in shock.

“I was just like ‘What?’ And what was I gonna say, ‘No?’ I was already on two seasons. If I would’ve walked away, they probably would’ve stopped filming. If I would’ve said I’m not doing it, because then I felt bad, I was like, I have to go to my nephew’s christening. Imagine if I said I’m not doing this?” she wondered.

As she watched RHOA, Teresa texted Porsha and said, “Now you know how I feel.”

Also on the podcast, Teresa shared how God’s guidance has helped her over the years.

“God does things … so you can be aware, put your antennas up. God brings good people and tests you. You also hear, the devil comes knocking. When the devil comes knocking, make sure you get that person out of your life,” she warned. 

“God has been showing up for me, and it feels really good,” she added.
