A production source said cameras captured Teresa Giudice's family's emotional fallout after Milania Giudice's arrest.

Milania entered a plea of not guilty on a charge of simple assault following an alleged domestic violence incident – and sources said the reality show's cameras have captured the emotional aftermath.

A production source told RadarOnline.com: "Everyone knows this is the biggest storyline Jersey has had in years.

"They missed the arrest, but they got everything that followed. The tears, the family conversations, the panic, the fallout."

A source said Milania's legal troubles have people talking about 'The Real Housewives of New Jersey' again.

A network insider insisted the college student's troubles won't be a major storyline.

However, a source shared: "Everyone is talking about Jersey again. From Bravo's perspective, that's exactly what the show needed."
