The Real Housewives of New Jersey is an American reality television series on Bravo, which follows the lives of five women in and around several communities in northern New Jersey. It is the network's fourth installation of The Real Housewives series. After season 3, The Real Housewives of New Jersey was the only The Real Housewives series within the franchise that features a main cast who are all married until The Real Housewives of Miami also met the criteria starting with it's third season.
Production history
The show's first season premiered on May 12, 2009. The five housewives featured on the program were Caroline Manzo, Jacqueline Laurita, Teresa Giudice, Dina Manzo, and Danielle Staub.

The show premiered its second season on May 3, 2010. Dina Manzo left the show after the seventh episode of the second season. On August 31, 2010 Bravo officially renewed the series for a third season. On September 7, 2010, it was announced that Danielle Staub was not returning to the show.
The third season of the series premiered on May 16, 2011, with a 90-minute episode. Melissa Gorga and Kathy Wakile were the newest housewives to join the cast. Recording of Season 4 wrapped late-October 2011. The third season also delivered the highest rated season premiere in the network's history and the highest rated season premiere in The Real Housewives franchise.
On June 7, 2011 Bravo renewed the series for a fourth season due to record breaking ratings, which premiered on April 22, 2012 and became the highest rated season premiere in the network's history. The season 4 finale aired on September 23, 2012, and the three part reunion began on September 30, 2012. The reunion concluded on October 14, 2012, in which appearances were made by the husbands of the housewives and Kim D.
On April 2, 2013, Bravo announced that the series' fifth season would premiere on June 2, 2013 at 8 PM with the season four cast returning: Caroline Manzo, Teresa Guidice, Jacqueline Laurita, Melissa Gorga and Kathy Wakile.

Teresa Giudice
Main article: Teresa Giudice(Season 1 – present)
Teresa Giudice (née Gorga) (born May 18, 1972) was born and raised in New Jersey. Her parents immigrated from Italy and raised Teresa and her brother Giuseppe, also known as Joe, in an Italian Catholic home. She grew up in Paterson, New Jersey where she met her husband of more than ten years, Joe. Teresa has four daughters—Gia (born on January 8, 2001), Gabriella (born on October 4, 2004), Milania (born on February 2, 2006) and baby Audriana (born on September 14, 2009).
After graduating from Berkeley College with a degree in Fashion Marketing and Management, Giudice worked as an associate buyer for Macy's in New York before deciding to stay home with her children. She owns an online boutique, TG Fabulicious, and has co-authored three successful Italian cookbooks, each of which is a New York Times Best Seller. The first, Skinny Italian, a lifestyle title that teaches authentic, healthy Italian cooking, was published May 4, 2010, her second cookbook, Fabulicious, was published May 3, 2011, and Giudice's third cookbook, Fabulicious!: Fast & Fit, was released on May 8, 2012. Giudice has also created her own line of Bellini called Fabellini, along with a haircare line named Youthful 8 Milania Collection.
Fabulicious cookbook caused a dispute with fellow castmate Caroline Manzo after Giudice wrote that Caroline was "1/16th Italian" and "as Italian as the Olive Garden". The dispute spilled into the third season reunion, where Manzo also accused Giudice of causing the issues between Caroline and her sister, Dina, who are no longer on speaking terms, an accusation that both Dina Manzo and Teresa Giudice have denied.
Additionally, she is a committee member for her former co-star, Dina Manzo's charity, Project Ladybug. On February 19, 2012, Giudice was a cast member on season 12 of Celebrity Apprentice.
