Milania Giudice, daughter of Real Housewives of New Jersey star Teresa Giudice, is no stranger to the camera’s gaze. Having grown up with cameras rolling since she was just two years old, Milania is embracing her unique upbringing and is open about potentially following in her mom and sister’s footsteps in the reality TV world.

At just 19, the University of Tampa student shares a candid look at life in the public eye, the lessons she’s learned from her powerhouse mom, and the pride she feels in her family’s journey.
“I’ve always liked reality TV. I’ve never had a problem with it. I like being in the public eye because it’s brought me good opportunities,” Milania told OK! while promoting her collaboration with SHEIN for an exclusive back-to-school collection of dorm décor and self-care essentials called SHEIN x Milania Giudice. “I am just seeing what happens as it happens!”
Growing up surrounded by cameras and cameras never fazed her. “It’s crazy. I’ve been on the show since I was 2 years old, so I’ve always kind of grew up with my mom being Teresa! I didn’t know anything else, but it’s always been good. My mom is a star! How could you not love her,” she gushes. “I’m proud of my family!”
Milania also revealed how deeply she admires her mother’s relentless drive and work ethic. “I’ve always looked up to my mom, she’s amazing. She’s a hustler. She’s always doing 20 different things at the same time. I’ve definitely always looked up to my mom. She’s taught me to keep going and keep trying to find different things along the way that I like — and to never give up!”
Even when nerves hit before filming, Teresa is there to boost her daughter’s confidence. “Sometimes I get nervous beforehand, and my mom is like, ‘Why are you nervous?’ You’ve been doing this your whole life! She’ll always give me a pep talk right before. My mom is always great with that stuff. She’s so cute!” Milania shares.

Meanwhile, Milania’s sister Gia is also stepping into the spotlight on the show Next Gen NYC, alongside other children of Housewives franchise stars. “It’s been amazing. I’m super proud of her, and I’m so excited to see what she’s going to do with the show. It’s such a cool show to see all the kids from the Housewives franchise!” Milania says enthusiastically.
