Luis Ruelas' Son Louie Jr. Posts the Best Tribute to His Brother Nicholas: “So Proud”

Teresa Giudice's husband shared the sweetest moment between his sons. 

By Cynthia Robinson

For Teresa Giudice and Luis "Louie" Ruelas, family means everything. That's why, after the couple got married in August 2022, enjoying time together as a blended family is of the utmost importance. 

How to Watch

Watch The Real Housewives of New Jersey on Peacock and the Bravo app.  

Since Teresa and Louie started dating, Teresa and her four daughters, whom she shares with her ex-husband, Joe Giudice, have gotten to know Louie's two sons, Louie Jr. and Nicholas. 

After celebrating Nicholas 23rd birthday earlier in June (more on that later), Louie Jr. more recently hopped on his Instagram Stories to celebrate his sibling yet again.

"MY BROTHER! I'm so proud of you Nick," Louie Jr. wrote over the sweetest snapshot of himself and his brother hanging out in the sun by the water. Louie Sr. re-shared the Story by adding the Coldplay track, "Sparks" to the post, since Louie Jr. noted how much Nicholas loves "Chris Brown, Coldplay, and Maroon 5."

Teresa has opened up about being a stepmom to Nicholas.

"Louie's older son has autism, so that's an adjustment for our family, and [we're] doing a lot of charity work for the autism foundation," Teresa told Us Weekly in February 2023. "The girls are so amazing with him...we love and adore him."

Milania has also embraced having older brothers, posting sweet photos and videos with Nicholas to her own Instagram account.
