On Sunday, December 22, The Real Housewives of New Jersey dad shared a sweet family photo with GiaGabriellaMilania, and Audriana Giudice — the four daughters he shares with his ex-wife, Teresa Giudice. The snap showed Joe and his girls smiling ear-to-ear as they posed before a beautiful Christmas tree in the Bahamas.

It’s unclear where the photo was taken, but the Jersey daughters definitely took their fashion A-game. Gia stepped out in a gorgeous Amanda Jean navy dress with fun cutout details on the bodice; Gabriella rocked a striped two-piece set that included a halter vest and wide-leg trousers; Milania wore a sleeveless body-con dress with a red and pink pattern; and Audriana donned pretty maxi slip in powder pink.

“Merry Christmas,” Joe captioned the post. “Happy New Year.”

As shown on Instagram, the reunion also included home-cooked Italian mealsa family photoshoot at the beachan afternoon tea, and an outdoor workout

“Early holiday celebrations,” Gia captioned a carousel of a family night out.

Although it was an undoubtedly fun time, Gia’s Bahamas trip got off to a slightly rocky start. Joe explained the situation in a December 17 Instagram video that showed Gia arriving in Nassau.

“I’m picking up my daughter Gia at the airport. She came here from Tampa and they left her bag in Tampa, and now I gotta take her shopping,” he said in the clip. “Really? What’s wrong with these airlines? I don’t understand. It doesn’t make any sense. She’s got no clothes. Where the hell am I going shopping over here? Whatever. It is what it is. Son of a gun… Unbelievable.”

How often do the Giudice sisters visit their dad, Joe?

Joe moved to the Bahamas in 2021, about a year after he and Teresa finalized their divorce. The Italian native was deported from the United States in late 2018 and has remained outside the country ever since.

But despite his living situation, Joe is able to see his daughters on a regular basis. Gia confirmed this during a March appearance on the Namaste B$tches podcast, saying she and her sisters travel to the Bahamas every few months. 

“Summer gets a little hectic,” she told host Melissa Pfeister. “But during the [rest] of the year, we see each other so often. We’re seeing him for Easter and Christmas. And then whenever I can randomly get out there, I try to go out there… We roughly get out there four to five times a year.”
