For the first time in a long time, Teresa Giudice chose NOT to be on camera.
According to inside sources, Bravo made a deal with the Real Housewives of New Jersey star to film her last few days of freedom before turning herself in to the Federal Correctional Institution in Danbury, Connecticut.

The deal was reportedly worth around $50K…
But we’re told Tre turned down the hefty offer because she didn’t want to ruffle the feathers of prison officials who could possibly grant her an early release.
Also, she didn’t want to exploit the few moments she had left with her family.
While we applaud Teresa’s decision, we’re kind of bummed because it would’ve made for great television!
