Teresa Giudice’s Daughter Milania Giudice, 20, Arrested for Assault
Milania Giudice is facing legal troubles.
The 20-year-old—known for starring alongside mother Teresa Giudice on The Real Housewives of New Jersey—was arrested for assault following an alleged incident in Montville, New Jersey, on May 14, according to local law enforcement.
"The Montville Township Police Department received a report of a dispute at a residence in town," Police Chief Andrew Caggiano said in a statement obtained by E! News June 11. "The investigation resulted in Milania Giudice being charged on a summons complaint with one count of Simple Assault.”
She was released pending her next court appearance, per police.
"A criminal complaint is merely an accusation," the statement noted. "Despite this accusation, the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until she has been proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law."
The assault charge—categorized as a Disorderly Persons Offense by New Jersey law—came after the apparent altercation at 6:12 p.m., per court documents obtained by Page Six. Milania has yet to enter a plea, the legal filings show.
E! News has reached out to Milania's rep for comment but has not yet heard back.
Milania—who Teresa shares with ex Joe Giudice along with daughters Gia, 25, Gabriella, 21 and Audriana, 16—is a student at the University of Tampa, where she is majoring in public relations and is a member of the Sigma Delta Tau sorority.
"Congratulations on the University of Tampa!" Teresa praised her second-born in a 2025 Instagram at the time of Milania's acceptance. "I love you so much and I am so proud of you! I can't wait to see what you accomplish within your four years, make mommy proud."
And the mother-daughter bond featured throughout 14 seasons of the Bravo series runs deep.
"Every time I look at my mother, I can’t believe how beautiful she is," Milania wrote in an Instagram tribute marking Teresa's wedding day in 2022, when she tied the knot with Luis “Louie” Ruelas. "When I saw her on her wedding day I was speechless. Mom you are the most beautiful person inside [and] out."
Milania signed off the heartfelt note by adding, "I love you beyond words, Mommy. Sempre Insieme.”

Aydin and Cabral got into a physical fight earlier this season after Aydin accused her costar of taking money from a charity event to repay herself for expenses. They nearly came to blows for a second time during the dinner where Aydin doubled down on her previous allegation by claiming Cabral "can't afford" to host such galas.
"You want my life. I get it," Aydin taunted her. "You get to my house, ‘This is what I want.’"
Cabral fired back, "I want nothing that you have. You have 18 f--king bathrooms. Your house is empty."
Cabral then attacked her costar's marriage to Bill Aydin, adding, "You are sad and I know you cry. I know you cry alone at home. I go home and my husband is waiting for me at the door."
Aydin responded with a biting, "Your husband with the boobs?" which prompted Cabral to toss a pitcher across the table before producers removed her from the room.
Following Cabral's outburst, Giudice chastised her two castmates—a reaction Gorga deemed hypocritical given Giudice's table-flipping past.
"Cut it out? You’re the queen of this s--t!" Gorga told her estranged sister-in-law. "They learned from the best, white trash!"
The dig resulted in half a dozen "f--k yous" from Giudice, who also fired back with, "My brother married a whore!"
With the first two interactions resulting in utter chaos, Fessler had had enough of the volatility.
"You guys, I’m going," she announced before leaving the eatery early. "I can’t mediate this. You guys have gotten used to this level of disgusting. I’m not used to it. I don’t want to be around this, it’s f--king gross."
In a confessional, Fessler, who cohosted the attempted peacemaking gathering with Catania, lamented, "In my world, you smash glass or you break bread. They don’t really go together, right? Lunch is over."
Giudice didn’t just exchange words with her sister-in-law as she Fuda remained at odds after Giudice accused her husband John Fuda of being a drug dealer earlier this season.
"It’s not your f--king place to talk about my f--king husband," Fuda yelled at her nemesis. "Stop talking about my f--king husband!"
Mocking Fuda, Giudice replied with half a dozen f-words, only infuriating her more. So, she went after Giudice's alleged cosmetic procedures.
"Keep my mother f--king husband’s name out of your fat, f--king hotdog-lipped mouth," Fuda fired back. "You’re a-- needs to be checked!"
Giudice's reply? "She’s a joke."
Giudice's rage was later redirected at Josephs, whom shw previously claimed had tried to dig up dirt on her husband by talking to his ex-wife Marisa Ruelas—with whom he's been battling in court since their contentious breakup.
While Josephs insisted she was never in contact with his ex until 2022, she declared she never leaked anything about Ruelas to the press. But Giudice didn't believe it.
"Margaret, all she does is lie through her teeth," she claimed in a confessional. "We had proof that she was talking to this individual, that’s why we subpoenaed her and she never showed up in court. And if she was telling the truth, she would have no problem to show up and say I wasn’t speaking to this person."
Giudice then unleashed a tirade at her costar, calling Josephs “full of s--t” and a “disgusting pig” before slamming her husband Joe Benigno's profession as a plumber.
But the bombshell Josephs dropped next shocked everyone in the room. She accused Goldschneider—who did a 180 this season by befriending her former enemy—of having Ruelas' ex at her house in 2021 right before that cringe video of him was leaked online.
After Goldschneider initially denied it, Gorga warned, "Admit that if it’s true, because I’m sure there’s proof."
And Goldscneider did, in fact, admit the claim was true. Even more jaw-dropping was that Giudice didn't care about her friend's betrayal and continued to harp on Josephs.
"I met with her," Goldschneider told Giudice, referencing the ex-wife. "We hated each other, you went after my husband. But you know what? I’m glad that you know because I was always nervous that you were going to find out."
And after Giudice started a cheating rumor about Goldschneider's husband Evan Goldschneider, she totally understood her motives.
"I’m not surprised that Jackie talked to this person," Giudice said in a confessional. "I get why she did it because she thinks I was trying to hurt her with the Evan rumor which, swear on my kids, I was not trying to hurt her."
After the disastrously failed attempts at mending their friendships, the cast came to terms with the fact that there was no moving forward as a group.
"Today’s meeting was a complete failure," Gorga reflected in a confessional. "Pretty much everybody’s walking out the same way they walked in. Zero resolution."
And Catania was in a complete state of mourning. "Family is everything, but this group is no longer a family," a defeated Catania shared in a confessional. "How did it all come to this? It came out of really just people don’t know how to stop hating. It just built up and everybody just cuts so deep. It’s toxic. I look at this sit-down like a death."
With a flashback montage of the cast's happier times played, it all but confirmed the chapter is closed on the current cast of Garden State Housewives.
