According to E! News, Joe Giudice started his prison sentence in 2016 — and he’s been largely separated from his family ever since. That’s a long time when you have children so young. At the time of his incarceration, his eldest daughter, Gia, was about 14 years old, and his youngest daughter, Audriana, was only six. During a heartbreaking episode of The Real Housewives of New Jersey, we watched the Giudice sisters come to a gutting realization: Audriana was so young when her father was put away that she barely remembers him.
In the 2019 episode (via The Daily Dish), Teresa and her four girls looked through old family photos. Gia asked her youngest sister if she remembered a lot of the time she spent with her father. Gabriella replied for her, “Probably not,” and the camera panned to Audriana looking really sad. “It’s very hard watching Audriana not remember any of these moments because I have so many memories that I could think of with my father, and she has very few,” Gia told cameras, adding, “Since my father left, we always wished just to be a family again, just to live under the same roof again. It’s been four years since we’ve been a family, and until my father is back, it’s never gonna feel the same.”
Fortunately, Audriana had a chance to build new memories when she was briefly reunited with her father in November 2019 during a family trip to Italy.
