In August 2022, Teresa Giudice enjoyed an epic wedding to Luis “Louie” Ruelas (featuring an equally epic $10,000 hairdo). Still, as of November 2022, the “Real Housewives” star hadn’t changed her surname to reflect that of her new husband. Born Teresa Gorga, the star changed her last name in 1999 when she wed her first husband, Joe Giudice, with whom she shares four daughters. Now that she’s newly remarried, Teresa made the unconventional move to keep the surname of her ex-husband — apparently at the suggestion of her new hubby, Ruelas.
The reality star revealed the big decision during an interview with the “Slut Pig” podcast. When asked if she’d be changing her last name, she shared, “I wanted to. Luis doesn’t want me to.” She went on to explain that he reminded her how important her name is, “He’s like, ‘Babe, you’re known as Teresa Giudice … Your daughters’ names are Giudice.'” That sweet reminder earned major points in Teresa’s book, who added, “He’s just amazing.”
While she may not drop Guidice from her official title, the star suggested to Us Weekly that she was thinking about hyphenating her former surname with that of Ruelas’. In a since-deleted Instagram post (via The U.S. Sun) from July 2022, eagle-eyed fans noticed that she was already rocking the engraved letters, “TGR,” on the front of her suitcase –- suggesting that she was certainly toying with, if not already adopting, a double-barrel surname.
