Teresa Giudice was sentenced to 15 months in prison Thursday, but the show must still go on.
The Bravo reality star will still participate in “The Real Housewives of New Jersey” Season 6 reunion episode Sunday, according to an individual with knowledge of the project.
As TheWrap previously reported, Giudice and her husband Joe Giudice were both sentenced in a federal court Thursday after pleading guilty to various counts of mail, wire and bankruptcy fraud back in March.
Teresa Giudice was sentenced to 15 months in prison, while Joe — who also pleaded guilty to a count of failing to file a tax return — was sentenced to 41 months. The pair will serve their sentences separately for the sake of their four daughters.
Before his sentencing, Joe told the court: “I stand here humiliated before the court and my family and society. I disgraced many people, including my wife and four daughters. I take full responsibility for my actions. I promise to be a better person.”

It is not known whether Joe, who is not a U.S. citizen, will be deported after he serves his sentence.
Either way, all of the legal drama will be included in the current season of “RHONJ,” which began airing in July.
Sunday’s “Real Housewives” reunion episode won’t be Teresa’s only TV appearance in the upcoming days. The Giudices will appear alongside host Andy Cohen on Monday’s episode of “Watch What Happens Live,” Bravo confirmed on Thursday just hours after the sentencing.
Giudice’s castmates are offering their support for the reality star, with Dina Manzo tweeting a heart, saying: “Just send love.” Meanwhile when Danielle Staub was asked on Twitter if she loved karma, she tweeted “yup.”
“The Real Housewives of New Jersey” Season 6 reunion airs Sunday at 8 p.m. on Bravo. Teresa and Joe’s “Watch What Happens Live” episode airs Monday at 9 p.m, also on Bravo.
