Why Teresa Giudice Is Slamming Fake Heiress Anna Delvey

Teresa Giudice might flip a table if she ever runs into Anna Delvey.

But as for why The Real Housewives of New Jersey star has beef with the fake heiress, who served nearly four years in jail for grand larceny and defrauding wealthy individuals and businesses?

"Because she went to prison, she was committed of a crime," the House of Villains star exclusively told E! News, "and she's an immigrant and she's still in this country." (Watch E! News tonight, Oct. 7, at 11 p.m. for more exclusive interviews with the HOV season two cast.)

Of course, Teresa finds the ex-convict's post-prison fame—which recently included a short stint on season 33 of Dancing With the Stars—particularly unfair given her ex Joe Giudice was deported to his home country of Italy in 2019 after they each served respective prison sentences for fraud.

"I disagree with that because my ex-husband got deported," the Skinny Italian author added. "So why is she still here? My ex-husband couldn't even get out of jail and come home and wait until he got deported."

And while Teresa's House of Villains costar and The Challenge alum Wes Bergmann suggested Anna, whose real name is Anna Sorokin, would be a perfect competitor on season three of the E! reality competition series, Teresa begged to differ.

Instead, she proposed a fellow Real Housewives star.

"Kenya Moore," Teresa said. "She's always had my back. I would want her to be on my team and we could take everyone else down.
