What to Expect From 'Real Housewives of New Jersey' Season 7 Premiere
Teresa Giudice is reunited with her four daughters after federal prison.
— -- It's the reunion "Real Housewives of New Jersey" fans have been waiting for and it happens on the season 7 premiere of Bravo's hit series.
Teresa Giudice returns to her Montville, New Jersey, home, where she's greeted by her husband Joe and her four daughters after spending 11 months in federal prison for tax fraud.
After getting a sneak peek of tonight's premiere -- and it's a good one -- here's what you can expect. Read on at your own risk:
1. You'll Definitely Cry
I counted ... and I legit almost cried about seven times while watching the emotional episode. One of the most touching moments was when Teresa, 44, walked through her door for the first time in nearly a year. We won't tell you what happens next ... but we will tell you the poignant scene is the very last thing you'll see in tonight's episode so wait on it!
2. Melissa Gorga Has a New Business
As with any season of "Real Housewives," one woman is starting a new business. This season, it's Melissa Gorga who has her eyes set on opening a new boutique. Still, you've got to watch tonight to find out how her husband, Joe, feels about that. Hint: Meh.
3. Hi Jacqueline!
Jacqueline Laurita's got her spot back. The housewife -- who was reduced to a friend in season 6 -- is back in the mix. On the season's first episode, Laurita, 46, gives fans an update on her family and also introduces us to her friend, Dolores Catania, who apparently is an "old friend of Dina's." (Heads up: There's another new housewife named Siggy Flicker, but we don't meet her yet!) Looks like there are "no new friends" in Jersey.
4. By the Way, Where's Dina Manzo?
Giudice's favorite person to film with didn't return this season if you haven't heard already. It shouldn't surprise you, however, as Dina Manzo told Andy Cohen at last season's reunion that she regretted returning to the series after having been off the show since season 1.
5. The Paparazzi
If you've ever wondered what it's like to be famous, this episode will give you a preview. The paparazzi hound the Giudice family as Teresa returns. Not only does she complain that the paps are "following us" as she drives home, hiding in the backseat, but her daughters are also frustrated by the barrage of lenses. At one point, 9-year-old Milania yells at them to "get out of here, you dumb stupid people."
