Real Housewives of New Jersey “OG” Teresa Giudice is living her best life right now. She split from long-time husband Joe Giudice after his pesky deportation to Italy. Before that, Teresa stood by her man through infidelity rumors and a stint in jail at camp.
Teresa and Joe’s divorce was mostly completed in September, but the RHONJ stars are waiting for a court date to finalize the paperwork. Now Teresa has a new man, and she made it Instagram official.
Teresa posted a photo of herself and boyfriend Luis “Louie” Ruelas looking cozy. She captioned it, “The BEST thing that came out of 2020” along with heart emojis.
Louie, who is a single dad of two boys, is a successful businessman. Wow–that’s a drastic change for Teresa. While the couple was planning to take things slow, it looks like their relationship is getting hot and heavy. According to Page Six, Louie spent Christmas Eve with Teresa and her family. Teresa posted a photo to her Instagram Story of Louie kissing her in the kitchen.
Melissa Gorga added a photo to Instagram of herself with her husband, Joe Gorga, along with Teresa and Louie. Melissa captioned it, “We haven’t been able to post a couples pic in a while. Merry Christmas.” Oh, the shade!

Many Bravo personalities reacted to Teresa’s Instagram post about her new relationship. Real Housewives of Potomac star Ashley Darby posted heart eye emojis, as did former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast member Brandi Glanville. Real Housewives of New York alum Dorinda Medley commented, “Wow.”
“I’m so happy for you Tre!!” Kelly Dodd from Real Housewives of Orange County wrote. Gretchen Rossi, a former RHOC star, remarked, “Ahhh! Glad you are happy.”
Mary Cosby, from Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, added her good wishes. “Beautiful,” she wrote. I’m not sure that Teresa should follow any relationship advice from someone who married their step-grandfather. Real Housewives of Atlanta alum Phaedra Parks showed her approval of the match with fire and heart eye emojis.

But Teresa’s new boo comes with a major red flag. Louie’s ex-fiancée claimed in court papers that he exhibited “controlling and abusive behavior.” Louie’s ex claimed that in October of 2019 he left her in Provincetown, Massachusetts and then padlocked the New Jersey home that they shared. Yikes!
Louie’s ex also alleged that he also acted “with the intent to destroy and tortuously interfere with [her] business as a licensed social worker and to seek personal revenge against [her].” Louie sounds like a real gem. I think that you can do better, Teresa.
