Who's that girl? Teresa Giudice is almost unrecognisable from her usual glamorous self as she steps out make-up free

She is usually seen on her Real Housewives of New Jersey reality show sporting a face full of thick make-up.

So Teresa Guidice looked nearly unrecognisable today as she left her house wearing no make-up and casual workout clothes.

The 40-year-old reality show star sported a white T-shirt with a Canadian flag for a power walk alongside a female friend.

The star is regularly seen on the hit Bravo TV show sporting heavy black eye make-up and her favourite glossy pink lipstick.

But today, she teamed the casual T-shirt with black shorts, pink socks and white trainers.

Although the star looked calm and relaxed today, tensions are continuing to rise with the other Housewives on the show which is currently airing on the U.S. network.

In the next episode of the show, airing tomorrow, tensions escalate after last week's explosive instalment where Teresa Giudice and Caroline Manzo had a blazing row during a trip to Napa where Caroline labelled her former friend a 'sociopath.'

But now, Caroline's sister Dina Manzo turns up in the new episode to support Teresa at the launch of Fabellini, her new line of wine, according to Radar Online.

A new clip from the episode sees fellow cast member Jacqueline Laurita questioning the timing of Dina’s arrival.

Cheery: Teresa was overjoyed to see Dina, but her show of support was questioned by the other Housewives

Raising questions: Housewives star Jacqueline Laurita wanted to know why Dina had shown up to support Teresa, shorting after the row with her sister Caroline

'I think it’s nice that Dina went there to support her,' she says. 'But it did seem odd to me when she stayed away from her family for so long – wasn’t at her nephews’ launch party, wasn’t at the holiday – but at the time when it was the most heightened drama going on between Teresa and Caroline, they have gotten closer. I’m like: "Really. Why?"

In a separate interview, Teresa appears to take a dig at Caroline by saying: 'My true friends always support me. They don’t get jealous at all.

She adds: 'I know I can count on Dina and she will always be there for me.'

Teresa made a more direct dig at the other housewives in a blog last week in which she compared herself to Alice in Wonderland, writing: 'Every time I filmed with the other women, I never knew what to expect and they were insane in a different way almost every day.'

Thank goodness for make up because she's not a great beauty is she. Melissa, her sister in law is more beautiful naturally

Was she born without a forehead or did that happen later?

That spackle she slaps on and calls make-up does not make her beautiful...being an ugly person has nothing to do with lipstick and mascara. She's beyond learning that lesson.

Glamorous? She's always seemed kind of creepy looking. Just shows what a ton of make up can do to make someone look semi-normal.
