'Real Housewives' star Teresa Giudice, husband Luis Ruelas owe $3M in tax liens
Teresa Giudice and her husband, Luis Ruelas, were hit with more than $3 million in tax liens.
The "Real Housewives of New Jersey" star had a $303,889.20 judgment filed against her earlier this month, according to documents obtained by Fox News Digital. Ruelas was hit with a $163,523.94 debt late last year, only to receive another lien in March for $2,569,842.06.
Giudice and Ruelas married in August 2022, nearly a decade after she and her ex-husband, Joe Giudice, pleaded guilty to 41 counts of fraud after being charged with conspiracy to commit mail fraud, wire fraud and bank fraud.
Each of the three cases against Giudice and Ruelas are still open, according to the New Jersey Courts website.
Representatives for Giudice and Ruelas did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
Giudice had previously served time in prison. She was sentenced in October 2014 to 15 months in prison after striking a deal with prosecutors and agreeing to plead guilty to mail, wire and bank fraud for falsifying statements on loan applications.
The Bravo star was released from the Federal Correctional Institution in Danbury, Connecticut, in December 2015.
Joe Giudice completed his 41-month sentence at the Allenwood Federal Prison in March 2019. After he completed his sentence, he was held by immigration officers until he voluntarily returned to his home country, Italy, where he attempted to appeal his deportation case.
The former couple, who were married for 20 years, separated in December 2019. Their divorce was finalized in September 2020.
Joe and Teresa share four daughters together. He has since moved to the Bahamas after a third appeal to return to the United States was denied in 2020.
The "Celebrity Apprentice" star became engaged to Ruelas in October 2021, and married in New Jersey the following year. He has two sons from a previous relationship.

'Real Housewives of Atlanta' star Brit Eady sues Bravo over explicit photo
'Real Housewives of Atlanta' star Brit Eady sues Bravo over explicit photo Show Caption Hide Caption Phaedra Parks returning to Real Housewives of Atlanta Phaedra Parks is returning to Real Housewives of Atlanta after being gone for 6 seasons. Fox - 5 Atlanta Brit Eady is taking Bravo to court over the explicit photo incident that prompted Kenya Moore's exit from "The Real Housewives of Atlanta." Eady has filed a $20 million lawsuit against Bravo, NBC and the production companies Truly Original and Endemol Shine North America, accusing the defendants of defamation, intentional infliction of emotional distress, false light, sexual harassment and hostile work environment. USA TODAY has reached out to representatives for Bravo, NBCUniversal and Eady for comment. The lawsuit centers around an incident featured in an April episode of the reality show in which Moore revealed explicit photos, supposedly of Eady, on poster boards. The moment resulted in Moore being removed from the show, and the episode ended with a disclaimer that "based on Kenya's behavior, the decision was made to cease filming with her this season." 'Real Housewives of Atlanta': Reality show airs Kenya Moore's explicit photo incident that led to exit Eady says that the photos were not of her but that the episode falsely suggested they were. "The manner in which the episode was aired falsely yet unmistakably implied that the graphic sexual photograph presented by the cast member depicted (Eady)," the lawsuit said. "On information and belief, defendants knew that the photograph did not depict (Eady), or, at the least, were reckless or grossly negligent in failing to learn that the photograph did not depict (Eady). The lawsuit also alleged that the network refused to show Eady the photo before the episode aired. She accused the defendants of contributing to a "hostile work environment" and subjecting her to "unwelcome, offensive, and sexualized behavior and comments based on her gender by requiring her to continue working in an environment in which she had been subject to a gendered attack, creating an inferior condition or privilege of employment because of her gender." The suit calls for the episode to be removed from public platforms. Kenya Moore suspended indefinitely: She's off 'Real Housewives' amid 'revenge porn' allegations The same day that Eady's lawsuit was filed, Moore confirmed on X that she would not be taking part in a "Real Housewives of Atlanta" reunion taping happening on June 5. "Please know I take full accountability for my actions and deeply apologize to all those affected including Brittney, the cast, crew, guests and viewers," she said. "I look forward to seeing you all back on Bravo soon." Contributing: Taijuan Moorman
