Teresa Giudice Thought Her Daughter Gabriella Would ‘Hook Up’ With Jacqueline Laurita’s Son

Teresa Giudice is sharing some of her musings about her kids. She had former Real Housewives of New Jersey bestie Jacqueline Laurita to reminisce about the good old days when their kids were growing up together. It turns out, both Jersey moms thought that CJ Laurita and Gabriella Giudice might have gotten together.

Some of the Real Housewives kids grew up on camera. And fans are interested to hear what some of the second generation stars are up to. Though Teresa and Jacqueline’s kids did not end up dating, the proud moms gave an update on what Gabriella and CJ are up to.

Gabriella and CJ “were best friends” before the Laurita family left New Jersey

Jacqueline, who left RHONJ in Season 8, joined Teresa on her podcast, Turning the Tables. “Her and CJ were always, like, really close. They would always hang out together,” Jacqueline said.

Teresa agreed that the kids “were best friends” growing up. The moms would joke that Gabriella and CJ would end up romantically involved when they were older. However, the Laurita family moved to Las Vegas in 2019.

“We used to always say they’re going to hook up. You know. But then they moved away,” Teresa explained.

Jacqueline shared a picture of her elder son on social media in April. CJ is embracing his girlfriend Gia in the photo. The family now reside in California.

“This is his gorgeous, sweet girlfriend Gia ( @giarestivo @shopgiasvintage ) that he’s known since the 5th grade. They’re like an old married couple. They are very cute.,” the former RHONJ star captioned the photo.

Gabriella is studying finance at the University of Michigan. Teresa shared that her daughter is due to start an internship next month.

Meanwhile, the future of Real Housewives of New Jersey is up in the air after a disastrous season. For the first time in Real Housewives history, the cast split to film the reunion. If that’s any indication of not knowing where to go from there, it’s RHONJ.
