Why Teresa Giudice and Luis Ruelas Could Be Struggling

Trouble in paradise for Teresa Giudice and Luis Ruelas?

In 2022, Teresa Giudice walked down the aisle to Luis Ruelas, encompassed in her love bubble but without a prenup. That was her first mistake. Real Housewives of New Jersey fans had a bad feeling about the human blueberry, but the OG seemed happy enough. After years of strife with Joe Giudice, many just wanted to see her happy. But as most know, Tre has never been open when it comes to her inner feelings, especially when it involves Luis. But as Season 14 wound down, it started to feel like Teresa had found herself another bum of a man. 

Teresa Giudice is a shell of herself

Teresa has always been one of the prettier Real Housewives stars. But the stress of Season 14 took a toll on the OG. Her long-time friend Dolores Catania noted she was “a shell of herself.” The mother of four has lost weight and is now just a tiny frame. Tre has blamed the legal issues with Luis’ ex. Tre has blamed Margaret Josephs for her husband’s issues, but it turned out that Jackie Goldschneider was the one who spoke with the ex-girlfriend.

 But I wonder if there is more to the story. Even simple strifes have been occurring revolving around Luis. During the Off the Rails episode, Luis caught a lot of heat because of the comments he made about Margaret. The level of hate that spewed from his mouth should have sent up multiple red flags. Even Dolo couldn’t bite her tongue telling her friend, Luis’ going to get a lot of sh*t for that, Teresa. If I could stand here and back him up all the time, as I do, I cannot not say that that was wrong. That’s wrong.” At that moment, Tre honestly looked defeated.

RHONJ, as Teresa Giudice knows it, is over

As much as I hate to admit it, the Real Housewives of New Jersey is over. Fans will most likely be given some sort of reboot. But for the last 14 years, Tre has made sure to be an open book when it comes to her private life. Bravo cameras caught her birthing her fourth daughter, going to jail, getting divorced, and everything in between. So, it is quite possible that Tre is terrified of this chapter of her life ending. Let’s call it like it is; she has cashed in on her issues. How will she pay for her faux Chanel now?

Tre has been known to source rumors about others unethically, and I imagine that would take a toll on any human. At times, it was obvious that Tre was stirring the pot in hopes of getting the heat off Luis. It also didn’t help that she, Melissa Gorga, and Joe Gorga refused to film together for the newest season. After more than ten years, the Gorga/Giudice family feud has finally come to an end. And viewers are exhausted. The show could have easily put a strain on them.

RHONJ footage wasn’t aired of Luis Ruelas

When Bravo dropped the Season 14 trailer, fans were immediately alerted to the tense scene between Luis and Teresa. Margaret can be heard on the phone to her husband, saying that “Luis pissed her money away.” The clip then shows Luis outside talking with Tre and possibly a producer saying, “I want it to be better. I always..” but he is cut off by the OG, who says, “It’s not going to be better. I don’t want to talk about it.”

The conversation felt ominous, but the scene never aired. It was either a bait-and-switch to lure fans in or Tre begged producers to ax the story. Even though the scene may have been left on the cutting room floor, it is pretty evident that there is trouble in paradise. Teresa could end up resenting him if she loses her job because of his dark comments about Marge’s family. It’s probably right about now that Teresa is rethinking her vows. 

Real Housewives of New Jersey can be streamed on Peacock.
