Teresa Giudice Officially Announces Divorce from Luis Ruelas: “He Will Have to Pay All the Debts Himself…”
In a bombshell announcement that has rocked the Bravo universe, Real Housewives of New Jersey star Teresa Giudice has confirmed that she is officially divorcing her husband, Luis “Louie” Ruelas. The couple, who tied the knot in a lavish ceremony just two years ago, have reportedly been living separately for several weeks — but today, Teresa broke her silence with a jaw-dropping statement: “He will have to pay all the debts himself.”
The news, which Teresa revealed in an exclusive interview with Page Six, comes amid swirling rumors about the couple’s rocky financial situation and alleged tensions behind the scenes. According to sources close to the reality TV icon, Teresa had grown increasingly frustrated with what she described as “Louie’s reckless business dealings” and his alleged mismanagement of their joint finances.
“He was dragging us into mess after mess,” Teresa allegedly told a friend. “I didn’t sign up for this. I’ve already been through hell once — I won’t do it again.”
Fans of the long-running Bravo series will remember Teresa’s previous legal and financial woes during her marriage to Joe Giudice, which resulted in both serving time in prison. After finally rebuilding her life post-incarceration, many hoped her 2022 marriage to Ruelas marked a fresh start. But insiders say that behind the scenes, the honeymoon ended quickly.
“He tried to control everything — the house, her friendships, even her daughters’ careers,” one insider revealed. “It was only a matter of time.”
Rumors had also been brewing for months about Ruelas’ alleged involvement in lawsuits and questionable business ventures. According to legal documents obtained by gossip blogs, Luis is facing multiple lawsuits over unpaid debts and failed partnerships. Teresa’s team is reportedly working hard to ensure she is legally and financially disentangled from any liabilities tied to Ruelas.
“She’s being smart this time,” a Bravo production source shared. “She’s not going down with him. If he’s in trouble, that’s his problem now.”
The couple’s relationship, once a fairytale story played out on-screen, has clearly taken a sharp turn. Teresa’s official statement, released on her Instagram Stories this morning, was short but cutting: “It’s over. I deserve peace. He can handle his own mess.”
Bravo fans have been quick to flood social media with reactions. While some are expressing sympathy for the reality star, others are calling the split predictable. “We knew Louie was shady from the start,” one fan wrote on Twitter. “She should have listened to her brother Joe!”
As for what’s next for Teresa, sources say she’s focusing on her daughters, her fitness brand, and potentially writing a second memoir detailing this chapter of her life. Meanwhile, Luis Ruelas has yet to issue a public comment, and attempts to reach his legal team have gone unanswered.
One thing is clear: the Teresa we’re seeing now isn’t the naive woman from Season 1. She’s older, wiser, and — this time — not willing to pay the price for someone else’s mistakes.
