About Joe Giudice

Joe Giudice is the stage name of Guiseppe Giudice. He’s an American entrepreneur and reality television personality that rose to prominence when he married the controversial businesswoman Teresa Giudice (previously Gorga) and with his sporadic appearances on the reality show “The Real Housewives of New Jersey”.

Joe Giudice became famous when he married his wife Teresa, a fitness competitor and television personality best known for starring in The Real Housewives of New Jersey. Guiseppe was born on May 22, 1972, in the small town of Saronno, located near Milan, Italy. He’s the first of three children to Frank and Filomena Giudice. He has an older brother named Pete and a sister Maria. There’s not much information about the past of Giudice, including his education, however, what’s known is that his parents brought him to Paterson, New Jersey when he was just one year old.

During his early twenties, he developed the name Joe and shortly after, he decided to change it legally. He spent most of his early twenties and thirties working as a construction builder and a restaurant owner in New Jersey. In 1999, he married Teresa Gorga, who was his childhood love. Towards the new decade, after obtaining some attention online, Teresa was offered a spot in the forthcoming series “The Real Housewives of New Jersey”.

Appearing in television shows and realities is how this entrepreneur originally became a million. Thanks to all of his appearances on media and television, as well as some “side hustle” activities that we shall get to in a moment. Joe Giudice’s peak net worth is estimated to have been $11 million.

He first appeared on television in 2011 on the “Portrait of an Italian Family” episode of the Bravo reality “The Real Housewives of New Jersey”. Shortly after, he continued to make sporadic appearances with his wife on other programs like “The Apprentice”, “Good Morning America”, and “Entertainment Tonight”. From all of these appearances however, it’s estimated that he received an estimated $100,000.

In the summer of 2013, the Giudice couple was charged with conspiracy to commit bank fraud, bankruptcy fraud, mail and wire fraud, and making false statements on loan applications, according to NBC. This also included Joe’s failure to file tax returns for the taxes from 2004 to 2008, during which he may have earned an estimated $1 million. From the fraud charges of Teresa and Joe, which was an extremely hot topic in the media not just in New Jersey but in Italy as well, the couple are estimated to have earned nearly $5 million in a 10 year period. Prosecutors said the couple received about $4.6 million in mortgages, withdrawals from home equity lines of credit and construction loans.

Eventually, they were both imprisoned, with Teresa being sentenced in New Jersey and Joe being deported back to Italy, where he was sentenced to 41 months.

The success (and also the failure) of Joe Giudice comes from his abilities to be a media sensation. After he was imprisoned and received a three-year sentence, he officially completed it in March 2019. He was then transferred back to Italy, despite living in the US since 1973. But what truly makes this businessman so successful are his many skills in construction and leadership. Ever since his twenties, he has been involved in the construction world as he owns a private company named “G & G Stone and Stucco”, from which it is estimated that he once earned as much $500 thousand to $1 million annually.

The commotion caused by the bankruptcy and frauds also led to the divorce between Joe and Teresa Giudice, which was another hot topic. Thanks to that and everything else surrounding his life, Joe has received many offers to appear on talk shows and realities such as “Entertainment Tonight”, “Today”, and “Watch What Happens Live”. Most recently, he was a guest on the widely-popular talk shows “Extra with Billy Bush” and “The Wendy Williams Show”.

Joe Giudice is a controversial television personality that has been one of the hottest names in New Jersey for the past couple of years. He first gained some popularity when he appeared on television shows with his wife Teresa and after they were both sentenced for different types of fraud, their fame blew up. As of 2023, Joe Giudice’s net worth is estimated to be $200 thousand. However that might change if Joe is offered more appearances on TV or if his construction endeavors become successful.

Since the late 2010s, when he completed his sentence, Giudice has been constantly appearing on some of the most-watched television realities and talk shows (like those of Billy Bush and Wendy Williams’ show to name a few), with the most common reason being his controversial divorce that took place in just a few months.
