Faced with $11 million in debt, the Giudices filed for chapter 7 bankruptcy in June.

Teresa, 38, explained to UsMagazine.com in a statement: "Due to the economy, most of my husband's real estate ventures failed despite his hard work and effort. As a result, we looked to the Bankruptcy Court for a 'fresh start.'"

Teresa and Joe have four daughters: Gia, 9, Gabriella, 5, Milania, 4, and Adriana, 9 months.

"Staying positive is the only thing I could do," she added to Us at an event in June. "I have moral support; I have my daughters and my husband. As long as we're in good health, that's all we can do. I think this kind of situation is all over the world."
