See How Milania Giudice Made Sure Dad Joe Didn’t Feel Left Out Of Her High School Graduation

The Real Housewives of New Jersey daughter made the ultimate gesture for dad Joe Giudice on a trip to the Bahamas, where he lives.

Milania Giudice is about to embark on her next chapter as she enters her freshman year at the University of Tampa this fall. But before The Real Housewives of New Jersey daughter can do that, she is still embracing her summer of post-high school freedom. Teresa Giudice's daughter has been hanging out at her pool, going on vacation, and visiting her dad, Joe Giudice, in the Bahamas. During her most recent trip to the Bahamas, Milania and her younger sister, Audriana Giudice, got in some tanning time and were able to fish off of Joe's back porch. But Milania also packed her graduation outfit just so her dad could see her in it, and it's so touching.

Joe wasn't able to attend Milania's high school graduation in New Jersey back in June as he lives in the Bahamas. Milania, however, was able to bring the graduation to him when she packed her green and white cap and gown to wear during her trip, as seen in a video she posted to her TikTok account on Tuesday, July 23.

Milania posed with her dad in the video, lip-synching to the lyrics "Oh yeah, I just graduated high school" while Joe gave her a kiss on the cheek. "Put on my cap and gown for my dad," she captioned the sweet video.

Although Joe wasn't there for her graduation, he did congratulate her on that same day. Joe posted a video of Milania at her graduation to his Instagram page on June 20, writing a message for her in the caption. "Congratulations to my beautiful daughter wish I was there," he wrote. "Good job[,] Milania[,] I'm so proud of you."

How Joe Giudice influenced Milania Giudice's college decision

Milania will be able to see her dad a lot more when she heads to the University of Tampa, located in Tampa, Florida, this fall. The Florida university is only a short plane ride away from Joe's home in Nassau, Bahamas, which will make visiting him a lot easier.

Milania opened up about how Joe played a role in her decision to pick a college during a March episode of the Namaste B$tches podcast. "I really thought about it, like, 'Wait a minute, Florida is 30 minutes away from my dad on a plane. That's so amazing,'" she said. "So, whenever I have a few days off from class or something, I'll go see my dad. It's go[ing to] be so great."

What does Milania Giudice want to do after she graduates?

During a visit to Bravo headquarters earlier this month, Teresa revealed that Milania's college major is still undecided. But, she does have big plans for her future after she graduates college. Teresa's third eldest daughter came to this decision on a recent girl's trip to Paris. 

"We were in Paris, and [Milania] was like, 'Mommy, I know you're famous, but I want to be so famous that I can't even sit right here in this café right now," Teresa recalled. "That's how famous I want to be."
