Teresa Giudice may be used to the spotlight but her husband, Luis “Louie” Ruelas, isn’t too comfortable with it.
The Real Housewives of New Jersey star, 52, exclusively opened up to Us Weekly on Saturday, July 20 at the Mend Skincare Presents: Jill Zarin’s Luxury Luncheon by Laifen & Ticket2Events bash in Southampton, New York, about how she wished she helped Ruelas, 49, deal with the limelight.
When asked if she prepared him for the Bravo reality show, Giudice said, “I feel bad for him. Poor guy had to go through people hurting him in my world. I’m sorry.”
“I didn’t do enough research on the show before I got on. I just led with my heart,” Ruelas also confessed. “Today is the day without any superficial people around us. So we’re good.”
