ICYMI: Jacqueline Laurita’s family just got a little bigger. The Real Housewives of New Jersey alum revealed that there’s a new little Laurita thanks to the addition of a sweet puppy. Jacqueline even shared a first look at the pooch on her Instagram, sharing more details about the dog.Â
“Meet our new baby girl, Ocean! She is a Blue Merle Fluffy Frenchie. Born July 4th! Her and Diesel get along beautifully,” Jacqueline shared on Instagram earlier this month. She went on to share photos of the little dog, who has gray-toned fur and gray-blue eyes. She added in the caption introducing the Laurita’s new puppy, “She’s a sweet addition to our family.”
Earlier this summer, Jacqueline posted some photos of Diesel lounging around the house that offered up some new peeks at her California home, which is now has one more family member living there. Jacqueline, her husband Chris, and their two sons, Nicholas and CJ, moved to Orange County several years ago.

What are Jacqueline Laurita’s sons up to today?
Back in June, Jacqueline’s son, Nicholas, turned 16 on the same day his cousin also celebrated a birthday — and the proud mom shared a post celebrating both of them. “Happy 16th Birthday Nicholas and Happy 17th Birthday to his cousin Fiona!” she wrote. “We also celebrated my Dads birthday! We are so happy you had a great day doing exactly what you wanted to do.’Duffy ride in Newport Beach’. (With Grandparents and cousins too!) We are so proud of you always. You both are a ray of sunshine anywhere you go! We love everything about you! May all of your birthday wishes come true.”

Weeks before that, in late June, her son CJ, celebrated his 23rd birthday. She, of course, also shared new insight into the 20-something at the time. “It’s hard to believe my handsome little ‘Saint CJ’ is now 23 years old! Where have all the years gone? You’ve always been such a pleasure to raise. I feel so blessed to be your Mom. You’re a blessing to our family,” she wrote. “I’m so proud of the man you’ve become. It fills my heart with joy to see you happy and in love. Thank you for always being you. I love you!”
Jacqueline Laurita’s daughter, Ashlee Holmes, shares an update on her son
Of course, there’s always something to celebrate. In fact, Jacqueline Laurita’s daughter, Ashlee Holmes, shared some updates on her son, Cameron Malleo, who turned 9 back in August. Jacqueline showed her love from afar (Ashlee and Cameron live in New Jersey still) for her grandson by liking both the heartwarming messages Ashlee posted about Cameron.
“Happy 9th birthday Cameron Hendrix. May all of your wishes either come true — or exceed your wildest dreams. I am so proud of you. Love you forever times infinity,” Ashlee wrote in one post.Â
She also waxed poetic in another post timed to his big day to mark the special day. “Another trip around the sun. My best friend (that I grew lol) turns 9 years old tomorrow. It’s all going SO fast. I feel like we’ve lived a thousand lifetimes together in these past 9 years. I’m blessed every single day to call him mine. He is the most tender-hearted, resilient, and hilarious little boy,” Ashlee wrote. “Thank you, God, for putting our souls together to navigate this crazy journey called life. I’m grateful every day. There have been plenty of times I’ve felt worry (about one thing or another) but I keep getting gently reminded that everything will fall right into place. It has so far.”
