Milania Giudice Breaks Silence on Arrest, Slams AI Mugshot Rumors
More details about Milania Giudice's legal troubles have come to light.
Two months after the Real Housewives of New Jersey star Teresa Giudice's daughter was arrested for assault, the Montville Township municipal court judge further explained the allegations from the incident.
Judge Vincent Failla read during the July 14 court hearing, obtained by Page Six, that Milania allegedly "did knowingly cause bodily injury to another, specifically by striking the victim L.R. in the head with her fist, causing redness to the middle of the victim's forehead, during a domestic dispute."
The Next Gen NYC star—who was sitting beside lawyer Alan Kraminsky during the virtual hearing—pleaded not guilty to disorderly simple assault-purposely/knowingly causing bodily injury, according to court records obtained by E! News.
The judge noted during the hearing that if the 20-year-old is found guilty, "as it's written, it carries with it the possibility of six months in jail, probation and fines in excess of $500."
"I mean, it is what it is," she added. "S--t happens in life, and it is what it is. You got to learn from it, just become a better person, and talk about it, and I just was not in a good area in my life."
Despite Milania showcasing her life on RHONJ and later on in Next Gen NYC, she emphasized that her onscreen appearances are only a slice of her real life.
"I've been through a lot in life, and some other stuff happened to me," she explained. "Like, just because you guys think you know everything that happens in my life, you just really don't."

Jennifer Aydin vs. Danielle Cabral
Aydin and Cabral got into a physical fight earlier this season after Aydin accused her costar of taking money from a charity event to repay herself for expenses. They nearly came to blows for a second time during the dinner where Aydin doubled down on her previous allegation by claiming Cabral "can't afford" to host such galas.
"You want my life. I get it," Aydin taunted her. "You get to my house, ‘This is what I want.’"
Cabral fired back, "I want nothing that you have. You have 18 f--king bathrooms. Your house is empty."
Cabral then attacked her costar's marriage to Bill Aydin, adding, "You are sad and I know you cry. I know you cry alone at home. I go home and my husband is waiting for me at the door."
Aydin responded with a biting, "Your husband with the boobs?" which prompted Cabral to toss a pitcher across the table before producers removed her from the room.

Melissa Gorga vs. Teresa Giudice
Following Cabral's outburst, Giudice chastised her two castmates—a reaction Gorga deemed hypocritical given Giudice's table-flipping past.
"Cut it out? You’re the queen of this s--t!" Gorga told her estranged sister-in-law. "They learned from the best, white trash!"
The dig resulted in half a dozen "f--k yous" from Giudice, who also fired back with, "My brother married a whore!"

Jennifer Fessler Walks Out
With the first two interactions resulting in utter chaos, Fessler had had enough of the volatility.
"You guys, I’m going," she announced before leaving the eatery early. "I can’t mediate this. You guys have gotten used to this level of disgusting. I’m not used to it. I don’t want to be around this, it’s f--king gross."
In a confessional, Fessler, who cohosted the attempted peacemaking gathering with Catania, lamented, "In my world, you smash glass or you break bread. They don’t really go together, right? Lunch is over."

Teresa Giudice vs. Rachel Fuda
Giudice didn’t just exchange words with her sister-in-law as she Fuda remained at odds after Giudice accused her husband John Fuda of being a drug dealer earlier this season.
"It’s not your f--king place to talk about my f--king husband," Fuda yelled at her nemesis. "Stop talking about my f--king husband!"
Mocking Fuda, Giudice replied with half a dozen f-words, only infuriating her more. So, she went after Giudice's alleged cosmetic procedures.
"Keep my mother f--king husband’s name out of your fat, f--king hotdog-lipped mouth," Fuda fired back. "You’re a-- needs to be checked!"
Giudice's reply? "She’s a joke."

Margaret Josephs vs. Teresa Giudice
Giudice's rage was later redirected at Josephs, whom shw previously claimed had tried to dig up dirt on her husband by talking to his ex-wife Marisa Ruelas—with whom he's been battling in court since their contentious breakup.
While Josephs insisted she was never in contact with his ex until 2022, she declared she never leaked anything about Ruelas to the press. But Giudice didn't believe it.
"Margaret, all she does is lie through her teeth," she claimed in a confessional. "We had proof that she was talking to this individual, that’s why we subpoenaed her and she never showed up in court. And if she was telling the truth, she would have no problem to show up and say I wasn’t speaking to this person."
Giudice then unleashed a tirade at her costar, calling Josephs “full of s--t” and a “disgusting pig” before slamming her husband Joe Benigno's profession as a plumber.

The Shocking Jackie Goldschneider Revelation
But the bombshell Josephs dropped next shocked everyone in the room. She accused Goldschneider—who did a 180 this season by befriending her former enemy—of having Ruelas' ex at her house in 2021 right before that cringe video of him was leaked online.
After Goldschneider initially denied it, Gorga warned, "Admit that if it’s true, because I’m sure there’s proof."
And Goldscneider did, in fact, admit the claim was true. Even more jaw-dropping was that Giudice didn't care about her friend's betrayal and continued to harp on Josephs.
"I met with her," Goldschneider told Giudice, referencing the ex-wife. "We hated each other, you went after my husband. But you know what? I’m glad that you know because I was always nervous that you were going to find out."
And after Giudice started a cheating rumor about Goldschneider's husband Evan Goldschneider, she totally understood her motives.
"I’m not surprised that Jackie talked to this person," Giudice said in a confessional. "I get why she did it because she thinks I was trying to hurt her with the Evan rumor which, swear on my kids, I was not trying to hurt her."

No Path Forward
After the disastrously failed attempts at mending their friendships, the cast came to terms with the fact that there was no moving forward as a group.
"Today’s meeting was a complete failure," Gorga reflected in a confessional. "Pretty much everybody’s walking out the same way they walked in. Zero resolution."
And Catania was in a complete state of mourning. "Family is everything, but this group is no longer a family," a defeated Catania shared in a confessional. "How did it all come to this? It came out of really just people don’t know how to stop hating. It just built up and everybody just cuts so deep. It’s toxic. I look at this sit-down like a death."
With a flashback montage of the cast's happier times played, it all but confirmed the chapter is closed on the current cast of Garden State Housewives.
