NEWARK, N.J., July 20 (UPI) -- Teresa Giudice will reportedly be featured on husband Joe Giudice's TV special.

The 43-year-old reality star is slated to appear via telephone on the upcoming two-part Bravo special. The show will follow Joe Giudice as he cares for the couple's four daughters while Giudice serves her sentence.

TMZ reports the network wasn't able to film inside Danbury Federal Correctional Institute, where Giudice is imprisoned. The reality star will be paid to appear by phone, as the "Son of Sam" law only prohibits certain violent criminals from profiting from their crimes.

Giudice and husband Joe Giudice were sentenced to 15 and 41 months, respectively, on multiple charges of fraud in October 2014. The pair will serve their terms separately on account of their children, with Giudice scheduled for early release in December.

Giudice posed in her prison jumpsuit for a family portrait that surfaced earlier this month. The reality star and her family came to fame on Bravo series The Real Housewives of New Jersey, and Giudice is expected to return to the show after her release.
