Teresa Giudice organized a lavish joint graduation party for daughters Gia and Gabriella: pictures

Teresa shares Gia as well as daughters Audriana, 14; Milania (17) and Gabriella (19) with ex-husband Joe (51).

Fans first met Gia when the Bravo series premiered in 2009, and she quickly became a fan favorite. Although growing up in the spotlight brought its challenges, the influencer and aspiring lawyer still managed to stay true to herself while coming into her own.

“I’ve been an adult now for almost five years, since I was 18. So I always got the image like, ‘Oh, you’re a kid.’ And I think that’s what just made me mentally stronger, to want to open my own business, to become an entrepreneur, because I never let outside noise affect me and my family,” she told PEOPLE in November 2023. . . . “Always I stood up for what was right, for what was wrong… A strong mentality helped me create my business and grow as a person.”

Gia continued, “I learned to speak up for myself and my family because there were just scenarios where things weren’t true. And I took that role to stand up for my family… and stay grounded.”

As for what the future holds, Gia isn’t ruling out the possibility of one day becoming a New Jersey housewife alongside her mother, Teresa.

“We’re definitely a powerhouse team, my mom and I,” she previously told E! News. “But I’m not married, I don’t have children. I’m not a housewife yet, but we’re definitely a great duo.”
