Reality Star Quits 'Special Forces' TV Competition Over Daughter's Concerns

In the latest episode of the reality competition series 'Special Forces: World's Toughest Test', which aired on Oct. 9, 2025, several contestants faced significant challenges during the show's third day of competition.

One of the notable events was the departure of reality star Teresa Giudice, who decided to quit the show over concerns for her daughter Gia Giudice. The contestants were tasked with a simulated war zone exercise, which involved locating and extracting "fallen comrades" while navigating tough terrain, obstacles, and fake explosions in the brutal Moroccan desert heat. The physically demanding challenge left many of the contestants, including Gia Giudice, Kody Brown, and Shawn Johnson, completely exhausted.
