Former Real Housewives of New Jersey star Caroline Manzo is breaking her silence after Joe Giudice and Teresa Giudice's sentencing.
While appearing on Watch What Happens Live Sunday night, the Manzo'd With Children star shared her thoughts on her former cast members' punishments.
"I'm blown away by the whole thing. It's so much bigger than Housewives. It's so much bigger than Bravo," she told host Andy Cohen. "The only thing I can think of is their kids and just God bless those kids."
Cohen brought up a moment before season one aired in 2009 that caught his attention. He shared a memory of Joe asking if anyone has ever been indicted for being on the show. Cohen then asked Manzo if that brought up any red flags for her.
"No, that's like a crazy question," she explained. "I can't judge them and I won't judge them because I don't know what happened and all I can think of is those kids."
Fans may remember a memorable scene from Housewives where Manzo dropped a shocking prediction. She said something may happen to her co-star that would force Teresa to take over the family unit and divorce her husband.
With the recent chain of events, Cohen had to ask if she stands by that claim.
"I am going to keep that to myself because today's not the day for that," Manzo shared. "All I know is what I saw go down this week is sad."
After pleading guilty to fraud charges, Joe was sentenced to 41 months behind bars while his wife received 15 months. Teresa is expected to surrender by Jan. 5, 2015 while Joe will begin his term once his wife is released.
Followers of the show and criminal case will be able to hear from the Giudices themselves when they sit down for their first interview with Cohen Monday night. In a sneak preview shown on Watch What Happens Live Sunday, the couple shared their reaction to hearing their punishment.
"At one point, I couldn't even move my fingers," she told Cohen. "They were stuck." When asked if he expected his wife to get jail time, Joe tearfully replied, "No."
Watch the full interview on Watch What Happens Live: One-on-One With Teresa and Joe Monday night at 9 p.m. only on Bravo.
