Audriana Giudice’s “Beautiful” Dance Solo Has Teresa and Joe Emotional

Teresa Giudice is beaming with pride.

The Real Housewives of New Jersey mom returned to Instagram on Friday, March 31, to share a doting message to her youngest daughter, Audriana Giudice. Teresa’s comments were in response to a video clip of Audriana’s recent performance at the 2023 Believe National Dance Competition.

The footage, which was shared by New Jersey–based choreographer Frankie Crupi, featured the 13-year-old delivering a solo performance to Whitney Houston’s “I Have Nothing.”

“Thank you for this beautiful solo,” Teresa commented on the post. “So beautiful I keep watching her over and over.”

Audriana’s dad, Joe Giudice, also praised his daughter’s performance in an Instagram Story that included the aforementioned clip.

“My Audriana,” he captioned the post, along with several heart emojis. Audriana also took some time to respond to all the kind comments. “Thank you so much,” she wrote. “[L]ove this solo.”

Teresa previously revealed that dancing has played a major role in her family life.

“I started all four of my girls dancing since they were 2-and-a-half,” the cookbook author told People last year. “And the only one that’s still competitively dancing now is Audriana, my youngest.”

Teresa is no stranger to competitive dance, as she placed 13th on Dancing with the Stars Season 13. Ahead of last year’s season premiere, Teresa told People she was optimistic about her chances, saying her daughters proved that dancing was in her blood.

“Hopefully, if they’ve got the moves, then I definitely have the moves, because I’m the one that made them,” she continued. “I want all my daughters to be proud of me. And I want my husband [Luis ‘Louie’ Ruelas] to be proud of me.”

Though she reportedly had “nerves” going into DWTS, Teresa said Audriana had prepared her with “the best advice.”

“She said to make sure you have fun,” Teresa recalled. “Enjoy every moment. Feel your partner’s energy and don’t be scared… And just dance like it’s your last time dancing. Make the best of it, which I thought she was so cute.”
