Teresa Giudice is excited for the Housewives All-stars show to air because she says viewers will see more of the real her.
She says her time on Real Housewives of New Jersey has been years of her under attack from castmates.
“I was so happy I was a part of [the spinoff], and it was amazing,” she told Us Weekly.
“I feel like everyone’s going to get to know more of who Teresa Giudice really is. All the other years I feel like I’ve been attacked, and that’s what happens I guess when you’re the OG, everyone wants to take you down. But I feel like this trip was different and even the reunion, I feel like everyone is going to start to get to know the real Teresa. I always had to be in defense mode, and if people are coming after me, of course, I have to defend myself — anybody would.”

Teresa bumped heads with the Manzo’s — who eventually left the show. She’s also had some huge run-ins with Danielle Staub, who also left the show… as well as her sister-in-law, Melissa Gorga.
Teresa added, “If somebody’s coming after you and attacking you, you have to defend yourself. You’re not going to let them just trample all over you. When you’re on the top, everybody wants to try to take you down, and listen, nobody’s going to do that. Like my book says, Standing Strong — I’m always going to stand strong. Like, for instance, I’m on the top now. I’m over it all. Like, I’m done.”
