Teresa Giudice’s kids have grown up on camera.

TheReal Housewives of New Jerseystar shares four daughters with her ex-husbandJoe Giudice: Gia, 23, Gabriella, 20, Milania, 19, and Audriana, 15. All four girls have appeared on the Bravo series alongside their mother — Teresa’s youngest, Audriana, was even born on camera.

In 2013, Teresa and Joe were indicted for tax fraud and both served time in federal prison. During Joe’s 41-month prison sentence, a court ordered his deportation (Joe was born in Italy and never obtained United States citizenship, despite moving to the U.S. as a child) and he moved to Italy in October 2019. The former couple split a few months later andtheir divorce was finalizedthe following year.

In August 2022, Teresa marriedLuis Ruelasin a lavish New Jersey ceremony and all four of her daughters were a part of her bridal party.

“The girls embrace Louie, and it’s beautiful,” Teresa later told PEOPLE of her children’s relationship with her new husband.

Earlier that year, Teresa received praise from then-pregnantRihanna, who said in aninterview withELLEthat she admired theRHONJstar’s parenting style. “Teresa fromNew Jerseydoes not play about her kids,” Rihanna said. “She will flatten you about those kids. And that resonates with me a lot because I feel like that’s the type of mom I’m going to be.”

Here’s everything to know aboutTeresa Giudice’s four daughters.

Teresa’s eldest daughter, Gia, was born on Jan. 8, 2001.

Gia was 8 years old whenRHONJpremiered and has been in front of the cameras ever since. In season 3, a then-10-year-old Gia tearfully performed an original song for her family about the issues her mother and uncle were facing at the time. Years later, the clip resurfaced on TikTok and the lyrics, “waking up in the morning, thinking about so many things,” turned into a viral trend.

“This is gonna haunt me my whole life,” Gia joked in one comment.

Now 24 years old, Gia is a graduate of Rutgers University, where she studied criminal justice with plans to become a lawyer. Ahead of Gia’s junior year in 2021, Teresa spoke with PEOPLE about her daughter, saying, “I reallytry to encourage Gia. Encouraging your kids is important. Being there for them and supporting them is important, too. Anytime Rutgers had something for the parents, I went. Parents weekend. Tailgates. I went to her football games. It was fun.”

When Teresa joinedDancing With the Starsin September 2022, Gia was quick to celebrate her mother onInstagram, writing, “I grew up watching this show with my family and it is so surreal that my mom is now going to be on it. I am so proud of you, you’re going to kill it.. can’t wait to watch you this season! everyone go vote❤️.”

Gia has continued to appear onRHONJalongside her mother and sisters. When Teresa began dating Ruelas, Gia expressed her initial reservations during a confessional, saying, “Do I think my mom might bemoving too fast? Yeah. Any relationship you’re gonna be in the honeymoon stage for the beginning. It’s very easy to only see the good when you’re in la la land.”

Gia has also been in a relationship with her boyfriendChristian Carmichaelsince 2020.

Gabriella Giudicewas born on Oct. 4, 2004. Teresa’s second daughter seems to be more private than the rest of her family, as she doesn’t appear to have any public social media profiles.

In 2016, Teresa told PEOPLE that the then-11-year-old would love to be a professional soccer player or a model. Years later, Teresa toldThe Daily Dishthat Gabriella was starting to look at colleges ahead of her senior year of high school.

“At first, she wanted to be a CIA agent, and then she saw how much money they made, and now she’s changed her mind,” Teresa said in May 2022. “I can’t wait to see what college she goes to, because she is my smartest kid. I can’t wait to start looking at colleges with her and see where she ends up.”

After graduating high school, Gabriella committed to the University of Michigan where she began classes in September 2023.

For Gabriella’s 19th birthday, Teresa celebrated her daughter onInstagram, writing, “This is my first birthday away from you, but don’t worry I will see you very soon to celebrate and give you the biggest hug! You amaze me every day with your accomplishments and hard work.”

In 2016, PEOPLE interviewed then-10-year-old Milania abouther YouTube channel. “My friend and I always wanted to be actresses and stuff,” she said. “We always wanted to do fun things on YouTube, ‘cause we would always watch videos, so we put a video together and we edited it.

During a party at Ruelas' house, the family brought up the incident. “Obviously, I’mhurt over what happened,” Milania said. “Just seeing someone scream at my mom and saying things about my dad, I’ve never seen someone scream at someone like that. I cannot watch that.”

In May 2024, Teresa and Milania shared that she had decided to attend the University of Tampa in the fall with anInstagrampost that showed the mother and daughter sitting together on a bed, totally decked out in the school’s gear.
