Giudice and Ruelas met while they were both vacationing on the Jersey Shore. PEOPLE confirmed their relationship in November 2020, just two months after her divorce from Joe Giudice was finalized. The exes share daughters Gia, 20, Gabriella, 17, Milania, 15, and Audriana, 12.

The two celebrated their one-year anniversary in July.

"A year, wow I would have never imagined how in one year I would feel so loved. You are so kind, supportive & loving," Giudice wrote on Instagram at the time."You take great care and consideration in everything you do. You have shown my girls so much love, I adore you. I admire your incredible parenting & your work ethic, and the passion you put into everything you do.

"You have made me smile every single day for the last year and I love you today and all of my tomorrows," she added.
