On Wednesday, theReal Housewives of New Jerseystar, 47, appeared onWatch What Happens Live with Andy Cohenand shared her feelings on her kids — Gia, 18, Gabriella, 15, Milania, 14, and Audriana, 10 — potentially moving abroad.
“Yes, of course,” Teresa said simply, answering a fan’s question on whether or not she’d support her daughters’ decision to move.
“They’ve never spent Christmas in Italy before,” said Teresa. “So that’ll be nice and different. And there’s a lot of family there too, so it’d be nice.”

The reality star shared that her daughters also wanted to see Joe for Thanksgiving in the Bahamas.
“But Joe is getting his passport. I think he’s going to get in 10 to 12 days,” she explained. “I don’t think it’s going to be in time.”
“They’re like, forget about Thanksgiving,” she added of her daughters. “So I think they want to go out to see him for Christmas.”
Regarding the possibility of her spending Christmas in Italy as well, Teresa told PEOPLE “It depends on my work schedule.”
Teresa and Joehave been married for 20 years, though they have been living apart for nearly four. Joe began a 41-month prison sentence for mail, wire and bankruptcy fraud in March 2016; Teresa served a little over 11 months in prison for the same crimes, and wasreleasedon Dec. 23, 2015. Joe wasreleased from prisonlast year but was held in the custody of Immigration and Customs Enforcement at the Clinton County Correctional Center in Pennsylvania as he fought to appeal a judge’s deportation order.

“I’m waiting until I get there to see if I feel differently,” Teresa said. “I just feel like when you live apart. … He says the same thing, when he sees me, he may not want this either. We’ll know when we see each other.”
Although they both maintained that they still love each other, Teresa again said she would have no choice but to divorce Joe if he is indeed deported.
“I want to wake up with someone every single day,” Teresa said, explaining that her kids understood. “I think they get it. I don’t think they want to see it happen, obviously, but I think they understand. Because the way I explained it to them, how are we going to live apart? I don’t think he would be faithful. I think he would have someone there and have me here. I just don’t want to live that life.”
