Gia Giudice's fledging career is thriving, and so is her relationship. After graduating from Rutgers University with a bachelor's degree in criminal justice this May, The Real Housewives of New Jersey daughter spent the summer traipsing the globe with her beau, Christian Carmichael. While on their dreamy European vacation, Gia and Christian had sushi in Spain, sipped red wine in France, and took a ride in a hot-air balloon.

But when Gia came back to New Jersey, she had to get back to work.

It was previously revealed that the aspiring lawyer already had a job lined up at Martinez Immigration, a virtual law firm run by sole practicing attorney Kathleen Martinez.

Martinez first shared the news of her new hire in a January 30 Instagram post. Paying homage to the film Legally Blonde, the video had a caption reading: “What? Like it’s hard?” The post continued: “We are so excited to welcome [Gia Giudice] to the firm!! Welcome to Martinez Immigration firm, Gia!” 

Gia's not just learning on the job — she's also studying hard. In an October 3 TikTok post, Teresa Giudice's eldest girl gave her followers a behind-the-scenes peek at "move-up day" at her local salon. While Gia's stylist gave her a trim, colored her hair, and moved up her tape-in extensions, Gia studied for the Law School Admission Test (LSAT). While her highlights set, the future lawyer had a notebook and a pen in her lap and a laptop open on a stool in front of her.

But it's not all work. In an October 3 Instagram Story, Gia — who by that time had a "perfect" new hair color for fall — paid tribute to her "squish." Sharing a collage of photos featuring Christian eating paella, relaxing in a chair at a swanky boutique, and posing with her in a cobblestone courtyard, Gia wrote: "Happy bf [boyfriend] day" with a red heart. She added: "I love you so much," and then wrote "my squish," with a kissy-face emoji.

Gia and Christian went Instagram official back in 2020. In the summer of that year, Gia posted a photo to Instagram that showed her snuggling up to a young man (the guy tagged in the photo, fans would later learn, was Christian). She captioned the post, "Summer nights with you."

Though this was the first time Christian appeared on Gia’s Instagram feed, fans were quick to notice that Teresa already followed him on Instagram.
