"He's given her the ability to laugh and love again, after everything she has been through. Their life is very peaceful and quiet together. She was always optimistic that she would find love again after her divorce from Joe but I don't think in her wildest dreams did she imagine she would find what she has with Louie," the source says, referencing her split from ex-husband Joe Giudice. Teresa and Joe, who share daughters Gia, 20, Gabriella, 17, Milania, 15, and Audriana, 12, finalized their divorce last fall.

"The girls love Louie and they were very happy for their mother to be seeing him after everything she has been through. They're totally supportive of the engagement.
