Teresa Giudice and Luis “Louie” Ruelas still have that loving feeling. The Real Housewives of New Jersey cast member and her husband have officially been married for three years, and they are sharing some new insight into their relationship.
Teresa and Louie spoke with Miami Vibes Magazine earlier this month, where they opened up about how their love of food has translated to the connection that they share with their children. Teresa is the mom of four daughters that she shares with her ex-husband, Joe Giudice, while Louie has two adult sons with his ex.
“Food is sacred in our house,” they said. “Our moms’ recipes are basically handwritten heirlooms. From arroz con pollo to empanadas, those dishes are our way of saying ‘I love you’ without saying a word. Faith is another big one — we pray together and keep our spiritual roots strong.”
“And we don’t play when it comes to staying connected with family,” they added. “Even if it’s just a group chat full of memes and emojis, we stay in touch.”

“When it’s family time, phones go down (unless we’re taking cute pics, of course!). The holidays are sacred — we bust out the old-school playlists, cook up cultural classics, and make time to just be us. In the chaos of everything else, our roots ground us,” they added. “They remind us that success doesn’t matter if you forget who you are and where you came from.”

“It’s like a tag team: when one of us needs to hustle, the other steps in and holds it down. We don’t just do life together — we win at life together,” they concluded.
Joe Giudice shares his thoughts on Louie Ruelas
Teresa and Louie’s relationship has even earned the approval of Joe. The dad of four appeared on his oldest daughter Gia Giudice’s podcast on Aug. 18, where he shared his thoughts about Louie.
“He’s a good guy,” Joe said of Louie, noting that anyone who feels differently about him doesn’t “know him like I know him.”
“I think that if they actually met Louie, then they’ll see a different Louie,” he added.
