Mere weeks after Real Housewives of New Jersey star Teresa Giudice renewed her wedding vows, husband Joe was spotted enjoying an intimate meal at TGI Fridays in Clifton, N.J., with a sexy big-busted brunette -- leading to reports speculating that Teresa's husband of 11 years was cheating.
Now Life & Style can reveal that the mystery woman is divorced fitness model Davana Medina, 37, to whom Joe's been extremely close for years.
While Teresa claims the woman is a family friend -- Davana was once her personal trainer -- an insider confirms to Life & Style that Joe's relationship with her goes far deeper than Teresa knows. "Joe actually used to date Davana's sister before he married Teresa," reveals a former friend of Davana's. "But Joe was very close to Davana, as well. He's been at her house many times, late at night."
While the mom of four was busy filming season four of her hit Bravo show at the annual Posche fashion show, Joe was grabbing midnight drinks with Davana across town. "They stayed for an hour or so," says a fellow diner about Joe and Davana, who's divorced and has a young daughter. "They were definitely friendly. She looked like a younger version of Teresa."
Watch Teresa discuss Joe and her fallout with her castmates on the Real Housewives of New Jersey reunion special part one on Oct. 16 at 10 p.m on Bravo.
