Daily Dish Ig Rhonj Teresa Gia Giudice 21 Birthday

It’s a big week for Teresa Giudice as The Real Housewives of New Jersey cast member turns 50. And she’s getting a very special birthday wish from her eldest daughter, Gia Giudice.

How to Watch

Watch The Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 14 premiere May 5th at 8/9c on Bravo and stream next day on Peacock.

“Happy birthday to the queen herself,” Gia wrote. “I love you so much, cheers to 50 years of being young! You deserve everything and more. Your energy lights up every room you walk into! Thank you for everything you do for our family, we wouldn’t be able to do it without you! To more happy memories xoxo.”

Of course, Gia always loves and supports her mom, as we saw during Season 12 of RHONJ. When The Daily Dish caught up with Teresa on the red carpet at NBCUniversal's upfront on May 16, she commented on her daughter stepping in for her, especially during the charity softball game during this past season. “She grew up on this season,” Teresa said at the event earlier this week. “And if she wants to have her mommy’s back, I raised her right then. She was very respectful, and listen, she wasn’t being disrespectful or anything.”

Teresa was definitely feeling the birthday love, love, love as she marked the milestone occasion. Her fiancé, Luis “Louie” Ruelas, posted a message for his future wife. “Happy Birthday my Love,” he wrote on Instagram. “I love you my sweetheart and hope you have the best birthday weekend ever.”

RHONJ’s Dolores Catania and Jennifer Aydin also posted birthday wishes for the birthday girl as she marks another year around the sun.

“Happy Happy Birthday to this beauty,” Jennifer posted to Instagram. “I wish you nothing but a long life filled with health, love and happiness! Can’t wait to celebrate with you - We about to get Turned Up!! Happy Birthday Queen!!”

Dolores shared an equally heartfelt message that left Teresa in her feelings. “Happy Birthday Teresa,” Dolores wrote. “Hope this year brings you nothing but love love love [and] happiness. Can’t wait to make more memories [and] celebrate you.”

Teresa’s response? “Thank you so much,” she commented. “Love you.”


RHONJ is streaming on Peacock and available on the Bravo app.
