Jacqueline Laurita’s new life on the West Coast includes a comfy home where all her family members have found special spots to call their own, including the Laurita family dog, Diesel.
On August 11, The Real Housewives of New Jersey alum shared a few fur-friendly photos on her Instagram Stories, offering a glimpse into her and Chris Laurita’s stunning Orange County home. The adorable black-and-tan pug was spotted all over the Southern Californian abode; here, there, everywhere, and anywhere. Jacqueline caught the little rascal in the snaps taken in different rooms in the cozy house.
A couple more shots of the perky-eared pup showed Diesel seemingly unbothered on the couch. “I think Diesel is bored!” Jacqueline wrote over one photo. In another: “He’s not allowed on the couch and he knows it!”
Jacqueline, who appeared on RHONJ for its first seven seasons, and her husband are living their best life in the OC since moving there in 2023. The married couple of almost 25 years live on the West Coast with their sons, 23-year-old Christopher “C.J.” and 16-year-old Nicholas Laurita. In the past, Jacqueline had shared other photos taken in the family’s SoCal house.

Jacqueline’s daughter from a previous relationship, Ashlee Holmes, made Jacqueline a grandmother in 2016 with the birth of her son, Cameron Hendrix Malleo. And although the professional makeup artist still calls New Jersey home, she made the long westward trip for some quality time in May, as Ashlee captured in a few videos. Through the distance, Jacqueline’s grandson and Diesel have also enjoyed a few video calls, including on Cameron’s first day of school.
The family also had a picture-perfect yard and pool to chill out in (photos below).
