Teresa Giudice encouraged daughter to 'take a break' from law school

The Real Housewives of New Jersey's Teresa Giudice had some interesting advice for her daughter: worry about law school later and focus on being an influencer in the meantime.

The Bravo star spoke to The Daily Dish and gave fans an update on her daughter's college plans that no one was expecting. After studying criminal justice and graduating from Rutgers University in 2023, Gia Giudice's plans were to move on to law school next. According to Teresa Giudice, that plan is still in the works, but it was time for her daughter to take a break to focus on other parts of her life instead.

Is Gia Giudice still going to law school?

"She took her LSAT. And then she was studying to take her LSATs again, but she wasn’t ready at the moment. So she just wanted to take a break," Teresa told The Daily Dish of the latest updates in her daughter's education journey.

According to Teresa Giudice, her daughter is currently focusing on her "phenomenal" influencing career at the encouragement of her mother who told her that she has her "entire life" ahead of her to worry about making progress in law school.

She told The Daily Dish about her conversation with Gia by saying, "She finished college, and she did great, and I’m like, 'You know what, take a break, focus on your influencing career... then you can go back to studying and take your LSATs again.'"

Will Gia Giudice become a reality TV star?

Obviously Gia Giudice is no stranger to the world of reality TV with a RHONJ veteran for a mother, but would she ever consider stepping into that world herself? Considering the fact that she's stepping away from law school to focus on influencing, it wouldn't be a stretch to consider that she might even be cast on a reality show soon.

Although she hasn't announced any plans to join RHONJ or any other reality TV show cast just yet, Teresa Giudice did announce that her daughters want to help her out with the restaurant she plans to open.

"Gia will be helping. She would want to work there also and help me. And the girls, too. So it'd be like, me and the girls," Teresa Giudice told The Daily Dish when asked if the Italian restaurant she plans to open is going to be a family affair.

According to Teresa, she's currently in the process of looking for a location and hopes to have somewhere picked out by the end of the year, but she's just not sure yet. "I'm hoping to lock it in before the end of the year, but I'm working on it."
