In a rare interview, Milania Giudice, daughter of Real Housewives of New Jersey star Teresa Giudice, has decided to speak out in defense of her stepfather Luis Ruelas amid growing public criticism. According to Milania, the negative comments about Luis are unfair and do not reflect who he truly is. She shared that since Luis entered their lives, he has been a "wonderful stepdad" and has done so much to bring stability and happiness to her mother and her sisters.
“He truly treats us like his own kids, always supporting my mom in every situation, and doing everything to make our family feel complete. People only see what they want to see, but no one understands what he’s done for us. Luis has never made us feel unloved or abandoned,” Milania said emotionally. She made it clear that their relationship is not just about Teresa being with a new man, but about a father figure bonding with children he cares for deeply.
However, Milania also didn’t shy away from addressing a sensitive topic: the ongoing relationship between Teresa and her ex-husband, Joe Giudice. Despite their divorce, Milania acknowledged that there’s still a friendship between them, and this sometimes creates tension in Teresa and Luis's relationship. “Mom and Dad still have a close relationship. They’re still friends, but that sometimes makes things awkward for Luis. He doesn’t ask Mom to cut ties completely with Dad, but it can be tough for him,” Milania explained.
She also talked about the pressures Luis faces in trying to integrate into the family. “Luis isn’t the one causing trouble or breaking up the family. He’s just trying to make things better, to make my mom happy, but he’s constantly attacked by the public. That’s really not fair to him,” Milania emphasized.
Milania’s comments not only surprised fans but also raised many questions about the complex relationship between Teresa, Joe, and Luis. While Teresa and Joe have been divorced for some time, their continued communication and friendly exchanges lead some to wonder: Is their friendship truly just that, or is there something more?
Luis has also previously opened up about his feelings toward the public criticism, especially the accusations that he is trying to control Teresa and her family. Milania’s words shed more light on the fact that Luis is not the person the media has made him out to be. She believes part of the tension comes from the relentless scrutiny of their private lives, with Luis bearing much of the blame.
Many fans have rallied behind Milania, believing she’s right to defend her stepfather. However, there are still opinions suggesting that Teresa and Joe’s relationship is too complicated, and Luis’s presence in Teresa’s life may create barriers that are difficult to overcome.
The Giudice family’s life has never been without drama, and Milania’s latest revelations have only made the story more intriguing. Will the friendship between Teresa and Joe really be as innocent as Milania claims, or are there unresolved issues that will continue to threaten their relationship? Fans won’t want to miss the intense developments in Real Housewives of New Jersey in the episodes to come.
