The Real Housewives of New Jersey’s Teresa Giudice and Luis “Louie” Ruelas have a love bubble that can’t be popped — that much became clear when he posted a sweet Instagram tribute to her on Dec. 7.
“You are the most beautiful girl in the world,” Louie wrote with two red-heart and two heart-eyed emojis, alongside a few photos of the playful couple on a purple Bravo stage set. “LOVE you so much.”
He added more hearts to a photo of Teresa blowing a kiss to the camera, with Louie looking on with a smile. In a follow-up snap, Louie laughed as he carried his wife of three years in his arms.
Of course, Teresa added to the PDA-packed post when she responded in the comment section, “Love you my [red-heart emoji].”
The lovey-dovey post is just the latest since the Montville, New Jersey-based parents said “I do” back in 2022, blending Teresa’s four daughters with Luis’s two sons.
Why Teresa Giudice’s marriage to Louie Ruelas feels different than her first
As RHONJ audiences saw, Teresa was previously married to her children’s father, Joe Giudice, but the 20-year marriage ended following their legal woes. This time around, things between Teresa and her second husband are the real deal, she said at the Housewife2Housewife: A New Lease on Wife panel at BravoCon 2025.
“I feel like second marriages go all the way, just because you know exactly what you want,” Teresa admitted at the Nov. 14 event. “And, obviously, I was older, I was 48 when I met Louie.”
Looking back at her marriage to Joe, Teresa wasn’t sure they had “passionate love.” In her words, “Joe, I grew up with my whole life. I knew Joe. Joe was always safe. He was always there, like, anytime I wanted to call him. So, I just thought he’d make a good husband, a good dad.”
On the same day of the Housewife2Housewife panel, Louie took to Instagram to support Teresa. He wrote, “You are fearless. You are loving. You are beautiful inside and out. And I adore you. (End of story).”

Recently, the married couple sat for a fine Italian feast and raised a toast with Teresa’s brother and sister-in-law, Joe Gorga and Melissa Gorga. It marked at least some healing in the years-long Giudice-Gorga rift after a most-welcome reconciliation over the BravoCon weekend.
When Louie later shared the post, he wrote, “Love you guys. Team family.”

A look back at Teresa Giudice and Louie Ruelas’ relationship
Teresa and Louie’s “unexpected” romance began in 2020 when Louie “ran past [Teresa] a few times” as she exercised on the Jersey Shore, she explained. They went Instagram official just in time for Christmas that same year, a couple of months after Teresa and Joe finalized their divorce.
Of Louie’s stepdaughters, Gia Giudice, Gabriella Giudice, Milania Giudice, and Audriana Giudice, “They’re just amazing. They’re amazing stepdaughters,” he confessed in a 2024 episode of Teresa’s Turning the Tables podcast. “They see me. I was afraid that your daughters wouldn’t see me.”
Louie, himself, has Nicholas and Louie Jr. from a previous marriage.
