Luis Ruelas, known for being in a relationship with “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star Teresa Giudice, faced legal drama with his ex-fiancée, Vanessa Reiser. Here’s an overview of the situation:
- Lawsuit Allegations: In 2020, Vanessa Reiser filed a lawsuit against Luis Ruelas, accusing him of being “nasty” and engaging in undesirable behavior if she refused his demands for sex. The lawsuit was reportedly settled outside of court for an undisclosed amount.
- Restraining Order Petition: In June 2023, Reiser sought a restraining order against Ruelas, claiming he was stalking her. She alleged that he hired a woman to visit her at her workplace under a false name, posing as a patient. The woman reportedly asked Reiser intrusive questions about her past relationship with Ruelas.
- Private Investigator Ties: The woman hired by Ruelas was said to have professional ties to Bo Dietl, a private investigator. Ruelas had previously mentioned using Dietl’s services to gather information on cast members.
- Denial of Restraining Order: Ruelas emerged victorious as the court denied Reiser’s petition for a restraining order. His attorney claimed that the court found Reiser not credible, stating that she was “obsessed” with Ruelas and continuously bothered him and his family.
- Court’s View: Ruelas’ attorney stated that the court characterized Reiser’s petition as a “publicity stunt” and emphasized that she was not a credible victim of harassment by Ruelas.
- Conflicting Statements: Despite the denial of the restraining order, both parties and their attorneys presented conflicting statements. Ruelas’ legal team claimed a decisive victory, while Reiser’s attorney asserted that she felt “vindicated” by exposing Ruelas’ behavior.
The legal dispute added a layer of controversy to Luis Ruelas’ personal life, which had already garnered attention due to his relationship with reality TV personality Teresa Giudice.
