The Real Housewives of New Jersey's Luis Ruelas, Teresa Giudice's husband, is being hit with a restraining order by his ex-fiancee for allegedly spying on her. Luis has had an uncomfortable season on the hit Bravo series, which culminated with him claiming he had information on the entire cast. These new allegations, while serious, are not surprising.
According to Page Six, Luis' ex-fiancee, Vanessa Reiser, has had to file a restraining order again the Bravo personality after she claimed that Luis hired a private investigator to "stalk" her. Vanessa works as a licensed therapist in New Jersey and specializes in narcissistic abuse. The ex of Luis is claiming that she was informed that one of her female patients had been hired to "spy" on her. Douglas Anton, the attorney for Vanessa, told the outlet the patient had scheduled sessions since February.
The unnamed patient is said to have visited Luis' ex four times under an alias. In the paperwork, the patient was said to have asked about Vanessa's relationship with Luis every time she attended her appointment. According to the lawyer, some questions asked included, "Do you still love Luis?" The New Jersey-based lawyer revealed that the fake patient was eventually linked to a list of employees for private investigator Bo Dietl.

The name may sound familiar to The Real Housewives of New Jersey fans, as Luis mentioned the nom de plume during a recent episode. While arguing with the other cast members, Luis claimed the private investigator was his close friend who offered up much information about Teresa's nemesis on the show. The former NYPD detective has stated that he was never hired by Luis or any of the "housewives" but stopped short of speaking on Vanessa's case.
The RHONJ reunion showed everyone on the cast, including Margaret Josephs, Frank Catania, and Joe Gorga, attacking Luis for his underhanded behavior. The Macbeth Collection founder called Luis out for calling her son at his place of work and threatening him, with the two Real House Husbands blasting Teresa's husband for trying to dig up dirt. Luis has denied hiring an investigator to look into the cast. Joe no longer speaks with Luis or his sister after Teresa tried to spread rumors that Melissa Gorga was cheating on him. While Teresa may be in marital bliss with her new husband, there seem to be some skeletons in his closet that are dying to make an entrance.
The Real Housewives of New Jersey airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. EDT on Bravo.
