Teresa Giudice’s daughter Milania cuddles with ‘RHONJ’ star while heading off to college in Florida

Milania Giudice held tight to her mom, Teresa Giudice, as she headed off for her first year at the University of Tampa.

According to a video posted to Instagram on Monday, the 18-year-old was in tears as she said goodbye to the “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star.

She rested her head on Teresa’s chest, facing the camera, while the TV personality smiled.

Another clip showed Milania hugging her stepfather, Louie Ruelas, while a third clip showed the college freshman saying goodbye as he left the Florida campus.

“And she leaves you this morning; I know you will do amazing things and make Mommy very proud at the University of Tampa,” Teresa, 52, captioned the post.

“Today is the start of a new, exciting chapter! I love you so much and I can’t wait to see all you achieve over these next four years ♥️♥️.”

The reality star also gave a peek inside Milania’s dorm room, which features a twin-sized bed, framed photos of Chanel on the wall and a neon sign bearing the teen’s name.

Before saying goodbye, the mother-daughter duo went shopping and saw John Legend perform at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino on Sunday, according to a clip posted to Teresa’s Instagram Story.

On Thursday, Milania left her home in New Jersey to begin her college career.

Her 23-year-old sister Gia uploaded a video on TikTok showing how Milania packed her belongings into five suitcases and left for the airport.

“I’m a little sad right now that I’m leaving, but everything is okay,” Milania said in the video.

The sisters got emotional as they hugged each other outside the airport before Milania went inside with her mother.

Milania revealed she will be attending college in the Sunshine State in May.

That same month, she completed her final weeks of high school with her prom, and then graduated in June.

Teresa has two daughters with her ex-husband Joe Giudice – Gia, Gabriella (20), Milania and Audriana (14).
