Teresa Giudice Breaks Silence on Relationship with Kathy Wakile & Rosie Pierri: ‘Here’s the Truth…’

Teresa Giudice wasn’t on the best of terms with Kathy Wakile when she was a cast member on The Real Housewives of New Jersey, but her feelings toward her cousin have softened over the years.

During an appearance on the August 22 episode of the All About TRH podcast, Teresa first explained that she doesn’t run into Kathy or her sister, Rosie Pierri, often. 

“I haven’t seen them in forever,” Teresa admitted on the podcast about her cousins. “Listen, they live their lives, I live my life, and I wish them well and, I mean, I never run into them. I never see them. And that’s about it.”

However, if she did see Rosie or Kathy out and about, Teresa said that she would definitely be friendly. 

“It’s been so long, of course, I would say hi,” she continued, noting that she still has a lot of love for Kathy and Rich Wakile’s two children, Victoria and Joseph Wakile. 



“I mean, I have to say, I love Kathy’s kids, Victoria and Joey… I watched her kids grow up,” Teresa continued. “I adore her kids.”

“I heard her daughter got married. So happy for her,” the mom of four continued, referring to Victoria’s 2021 wedding to Teddy Kosmidis. “Matter of fact, I ended up seeing Joey — he was, like, a bartender in some restaurant. I saw him, and he was so sweet to me. I was happy to see him. Like, I always had a great love for her kids. I adored them, and they used to always hang out with my kids.”
