As a teenager, Gia Giudice was super dedicated to helping her father take care of her siblings while her mom was in jail. Before Teresa Giudice started her sentence, she shared the sweet promise that Gia made to her. “She said, ‘Mommy, don’t worry about it. I’ll be there. I’ll help Daddy with the girls. That will prepare me for when I’m a mom,'” Teresa told Andy Cohen (via People). “Oh my God, my heart broke when she said that,” Teresa added.
Today, Gia retains the same level of love for her father, even though he was deported to Italy after his release from prison. “I talk to him a lot,” Gia shared on her mom’s podcast, “Namaste B$tches” (via Bravo). “I’m older now, so he talks to me just about literally everything — probably more than I want to know,” she continued. “I mean, my dad has a more exciting life than I do. I’m, like, my dad’s therapist. He tells me about all the dates he goes on, and the girls that he’s talking to, and what’s going on with his day, if someone pissed him off at work.” Gia also revealed that her father is especially welcoming of all of his daughters’ company. “Even if he thinks about us leaving, he starts crying,” she noted.
