“She wants all this to be past her, focus on her girls, but not feel scared anymore. She’s ready to get back to a more normal life with her family and her dating life.”
The source adds, “When the cameras start rolling, dating is going be a part of Teresa’s storyline.”
Teresa and Joe announced their split in December 2019. The former couple, who were married for more than 20 years, made the decision to go their separate ways after Joe moved to Italy amid his deportation battle. Four months later, he lost his final deportation appeal, seemingly solidifying his move to his native country.
The former couple share four daughters: Gia (19), Gabriella (15), Milania (14), and Audriana (10).
The news comes after a source revealed that RHONJ will begin filming on July 20, after production was halted in March due to the coronavirus pandemic. “Teresa’s new storyline will be all about moving forward and moving on with her life, and a large focus of the show will be about how amazing she’s doing,” an insider told HollywoodLife.
“You will definitely see her dating and she’s expressed she’s starting to feel ready. She’d like to find someone eventually to settle down with who’s older. The other ladies story lines are still being figured out. The show will heavily revolve around her during season 11,” the insider shared.
The source also added that “all the ladies” will be returning for season 11. “The network is toying with the idea of adding someone else, but since they weren’t even one full week into filming, they haven’t decided yet. Some of them hadn’t even filmed together and very few scenes had been filmed,” the source explained. “They are talking to a few women though to see if they’d mesh, but it’s looking like the same ladies from next season only.”
The source added, “The network doesn’t want to take any chances on starting earlier than that, but everyone’s feeling excited and ready to go. They got the call about filming this week.”
