Joe Giudice Accused Of ‘Ignoring’ Family, Teresa Giudice Before Court Hearing

Joe Giudice has been accused of “ignoring” his wife, Teresa, and his family weeks before the couple’s court hearing. According to Radar Online, Joe hasn’t been around much over the past couple of weeks — and Teresa isn’t happy about it. The reality star seems to be distancing himself, perhaps preparing for what is to come (inevitable jail time and possible deportation).

A source explained:

“Teresa feels like Joe should be spending every minute that he can with her and their four girls, but he’s still doing his own thing, doing stuff with the guys and she’s getting really frustrated. She doesn’t understand why he can’t just stay home with their girls and with her. She wants to know why he’s ignoring them.”

Joe Giudice has been known to go off on his own from time to time. As previously reported by The Inquisitr,“Juicy Joe” was spotted out at a nightclub in New York City last month. According to sources, Joe looked “disheveled” and was “bombed.” Obviously it is not an easy time for him, but it’s not an easy time for his wife or their family, either.

Teresa Giudice has been posting tons of photos of her husband with their four daughters, Gia, 13, Gabriella, 9, Melania, 8, and Audriana, 4. Joe does seem to be spending a good amount of time with his family despite this report. If he is spending time with his friends (or even by himself), that shouldn’t be an issue either. The guy might spend the next 30+ years in jail — he should be able to hang out with whoever he wants without the media making an issue about it.

Naturally, Teresa is scared for what is to come. The source continued:

“[She] expects that Joe will get sent to jail and be locked up for a long time and she’s terrified of what she’ll do when that happens. It’s getting closer and closer and she really doesn’t want to be sentenced, she just wants everything to go away. Teresa really doesn’t know what she’s going to do without Joe.”

The rumors about Joe Giudice being “distant” has been denied by a rep for the couple. According to WetPaint, the two are spending loads of time together and really taking advantage of the next few weeks before their hearing (scheduled for July 8). This would certainly coincide with all of the photos that Teresa has been sharing lately.

Crisis manager, Wendy Feldman, said:

“The Giudices are currently in New York City and Joe will be with Teresa this Thursday at a Fabellini event, and at the kids year end soccer games on Saturday. As a couple going through a very tough time I am impressed as they really are closer than ever.”

Love them or hate them, this isn’t an easy time for the Giudices. The amount of stress and anxiety that is riding on all of them is not something that anyone wants to experience. While they may have broken the law (they have both plead guilty to charges), their lives are about to change forever and their children are going to be hurt the most.
