Teresa Giudice’s Husband Luis Ruelas Creeps out ‘RHONJ’ Fans After Admitting He Wears Her Dead Father’s PJs: “That Man Is a Weirdo”

One thing about The Real Housewives of New Jersey that never fails to disappoint is the fact that, at times, the house-husbands’ drama is equally as juicy as the housewives’. After a preview for next week’s episode of the Bravo series showed Teresa Giudice‘s new husband Luis Ruelas admitting he wears her deceased father’s clothes, fans have labeled him as a certified “creep.”

In the short clip, Ruelas is seen talking with Giudice’s brother, Joe Gorga — with whom he has ongoing beef throughout the entirety of the season. To date, we’ve seen Joe slam his hands down as he yelled across the table at his brother-in-law over Melissa Gorga‘s family not being invited to the wedding — the same wedding we know the Gorgas eventually skip out on themselves.

“I live with your four nieces. I wear your father’s pajamas at night to make them feel safe and loving,” Ruelas — who came into the picture following their father’s death in 2020 — tells a shocked Gorga in the trailer.

While we aren’t quite sure of the context surrounding the oddball revelation, fans flocked to Twitter to share their thoughts. One wrote, “So weird! It made me cringe.”

“Wearing a dead persons jammies is weird AF,” another added. “Especially when you didn’t know the person at all. As much as Teresa has calmed down, there is still something so, so weird about Luis.”

A third person said, “Absolutely fucking bonkers. I’d be jumping up across a table.”

I’m sorry, what? This is weird/creepy & you can’t tell me he didn’t say this to Joe to trigger him & try to get rise out of him. #RHONJ

How f’n creepy of Luis to tell Josie he wear his father’s pajamas at night to make Tre’s girls feel safe? There’s so much to unpack there but one thing for sure is Tre better keep her eye on his weird mind f&*k games around her daughters #RHONJ. If a person said that to me about…

Teresa’s daughters are grown and have their own father.

Luis acting like he sleeps in a dead man’s clothes to comfort these little girls is.. he really thought we’d say what a mensch he is. #RHONJ

Another noted, “Idk if this would get a rise out of anyone, if anything it would creep them out. 😅😅 Love Tre but I would of told Luis to take that off and never touch it again.”

We have Luis giving money to the Gorgas but then we also know that he sleeps in his deceased Father in law’s pajamas to feel safe… that man is a weirdo. I’m truly scared. #RHONJ pic.twitter.com/7X3Nsw4R0G

If y’all don’t think that Luis is weird as fuck after that motherfucker said that he wears Teresa‘s dead dad‘s pajamas y’all need to get help #RHONJ

I cannot imagine any context in which it is normal for Luis to wear the PJs of Teresa's dead father (who he never even met). It's giving very manipulative vibes. And then to say that to Joe Gorga? I mean you're throwing the legacy of his dead father in his face. Real cold. #RHONJ

“I’m glad Joe kept his cool coz that was triggering like a MF,” someone wrote, while another pointed out, “Luis is a creep of epic proportions.”
