Reality isn't so fun for Real Housewives of New Jersey Teresa Giudice and Joe Giudice plead guilty to several mortgage and bankruptcy fraud charges in a New Jersey courtroom on Tuesday.

Back in July, the Bravo reality stars were charged in a 41-count indictment including conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud, bank fraud, making false statements on loan applications and bankruptcy fraud. The couple originally plead not guilty to two charges in November. But it looks like the duo has changed their tune.

NBC New York is reporting that Joe faces 37 to 46 months in prison, while Teresa could serve anywhere from 21 to 27 months. The Jersey couple have four daughters: Gia, 13, Gabriella, 11, Milania, 9, and Audriana, 5.

Before Teresa headed to court on Tuesday, the Bravo star tweeted her congrats to Real Housewife NeNe Leakes, who just announced this morning that she will be competing on season 18 of Dancing With the Stars. Teresa wrote, "Congrats @NeNeLeakes on DWTS!" she tweeted. "Can't wait to watch you. Xx."

Yeah we bet she can't wait -- we're sure the ladies in prison just can't get enough of DWTS …
