Teresa Giudice Claims Daughter Milania Had Fentanyl in System During Airport Confrontation

Teresa Giudice asserted that her daughter Milania Giudice had fentanyl in her system during an altercation at Tampa International Airport, according to police bodycam footage obtained by Page Six. The incident occurred last Wednesday as Giudice, her daughter Milania, and another daughter, Gia Giudice, were in an elevator.

During the exchange captured on bodycam, Milania responded to her mother's claim by saying, "'Cause I was laced, I go to college." The specifics of when Milania allegedly had fentanyl in her system were not clarified in the footage.

Milania also stated that she had posted a video of the argument to social media. In response, Teresa Giudice told her daughter, "I don’t care anymore," and added, "I want to save your life."

The bodycam footage shows Milania speaking loudly and repeatedly saying, "This is what we do now," while her mother and sister attempted to de-escalate the situation. Milania also yelled, "Hurry up mom! Why don’t you run! You wanted to cause a scene!" and called out her mother's name.

Teresa Giudice calmly told Milania they would board the plane together. Police officers then escorted the family to their gate.

In a separate conversation, police officers noted that Milania was "using repetitive language" and described her as a "danger to herself."
