Teresa and Joe Giudice are celebrating their oldest child.
On Friday, the ‘Real Housewives of New Jersey’ personalities – who split up in December 2019 – posted moving Instagram tributes in honor of daughter Gia’s 20th birthday.
βHappy 20th birthday @_giagiudice I love you to infinity and beyond β€οΈππΎππππ can’t wait to celebrate with you tonight,β Teresa, 48, captioned alongside a throwback snap.
In a separate post, Teresa called Gia ‘strong’ and ‘fierce’, adding, ‘you make everything right in the world.’
βI love you more than you will ever know and I admire your strength and beauty. I love you baby and I hope this is the best birthday ever !! Thank you for always being such a great role model to your sisters. I am so proud of you !! Teresa continued.
Teresa shares Gia and daughters Gabriella, 16, Milania, 15, and Audriana, 11, with Joe, 48. The Giudices finalized their divorce in September.
Joe, who has lived in his native Italy after a messy deportation battle, also shared a video message dedicated to his firstborn on Friday.
ββ¨Congratulations to my beautiful princess, GIA! From my little girl who used to play with dolls, you grew up to be a strong and independent woman, which I am proud of. Your achievements make me laugh and proud [sic] yours, βJoe gushed.
‘I love you baby more than words could ever describe. Thank you for being yourself and being so special. I always want you to know that to many you are the best big sister, daughter and friend. I thank you every day for being an understanding and supportive daughter. You are not only my daughter, but also my best friend β, he continued.
In November, Gia and younger sister Milania visited Joe in Italy and recorded their travels on social media.
Over the weekend, Teresa Gia also treated herself to a sweet party with a purple and white birthday cake.
“Happy Birthday Beautiful @_giagiudice hope you enjoyed your birthday, love you endlessly β€οΈπππΎπππππ₯°β€οΈππ€© # 20th birthday,” gushed Teresa.
