Teresa Giudice confirmed that her father, Giacinto Gorga, is currently in the hospital during her appearance on Good Morning America on Tuesday, November 6. 

The Real Housewives of New Jersey mom ended her interview with GMA's Michael Strahan with a special heartfelt message to her father as he takes care of his health. "I just want to say my dad's in the hospital, and I know he's watching me," Teresa shared in the below clip. "Papà, ti voglio bene, I love you." Teresa then blew a kiss to the camera. 

Teresa has been there for her dad throughout his recent health struggles. She documented some particularly stressful moments with her dad in the hospital in her book Standing Strong. Giacinto was also hospitalized for pneumonia in November 2017.


Giacinto moved in with Teresa and her four daughters (Gia, Gabriella, Milania, and Audriana) following the passing of his wife, Antonia Gorga, in March 2017. She was 66.

Teresa and her brother, Joe Gorga, commemorated what would have been their mother's 68th birthday on October 20. "Happy Birthday to my beautiful mother in heaven, not a day goes by that I don’t think of you, miss you & wish you were here," Teresa shared on Instagram. "Thank you for watching over us, daddy, the girls & I miss you so much!"
