Teresa Giudice is one of the most talked-about Real Housewives of New Jersey, and now she's
making headlines over a little extra nip and tuck. Keep watching to find out who in her
life doesn't approve.
Giudice has been a star on the reality TV juggernaut ever since Season 1, allowing fans
an intimate look at the ups and downs of her fabulous life.
"I wanna get breast implants, but my husband is more of an ass guy, and he loves my 'bubbies.'"
That insider look also featured a front-row seat to some of the most infamous feuds of
the entire franchise, as well as the legal battle that ultimately landed her in prison.
Considering her messy split with her ex-husband, Joe, and the deaths of both of her parents,
it's certainly no secret that Teresa has been through a lot. But along with all of it, fans
also love tuning in to catch the precious moments that she shares with her daughters
Gia, Gabriella, Milania, and Audriana.
Then, in October of 2021, fans got some good news from the reality star — a welcome change
from the more tragic chapters she's endured. According to People, Teresa and her boyfriend,
Luis "Louie" Ruelas got engaged at the gorgeous Amanzoe Resort in Greece. And apparently,
Louie went all out for the proposal; incorporating candles, rose petals, and fireworks into the
ultimate romantic moment. A source told the outlet that everything looked spectacular
and that Louie's special lady was, quote, "completely surprised."
"I like a lot of attention, so does he, so we both give each other a lot of attention."
The engagement came just a few weeks before yet another announcement from the reality
star. As Us Weekly noted, in November 2021, Teresa revealed that she had recently undergone
a cosmetic procedure. This time, it was a nose job.
At the New Jersey Ultimate Women's Expo where Teresa was a keynote speaker, she revealed
that she had always felt self-conscious about the tip of her nose. The star told the audience
that she went to the best in the rhinoplasty biz — Dr. Geoffrey Tobias — and that all
went well with the procedure.
But Teresa didn't exactly have the full support of everyone in her life when she opted for
yet another cosmetic surgery. Thankfully, her fiancé, Louie, was completely on board.
His main concern was that Teresa felt good about herself. But Teresa's co-star Margaret
Josephs, on the other hand, had a very different opinion. As Teresa told it,
"She’s like, 'No you don’t need to do it.' Like, 'Really, b----?' Sorry, like, 'You
got so much plastic surgery, why [are] you telling me that?'"
"After a certain age, there's no natural beauty."
Glamour reported in 2018 that Teresa spends over $22,000 a year on her beauty routine.
That includes makeup, skincare, facials, perfume, hair products, tanning and lash extensions.
But even at the Women's Expo back in 2019, Teresa had already opened up about plastic
surgery. According to Life & Style, she said at the time,
"I do believe [that] if you are not happy with yourself and you want to do plastic surgery,
I think you should because […] it does make you feel better."
Along with her brand new nose, Teresa has only ever admitted to going under the knife
for one additional procedure: a boob job. In January 2020, the reality star announced
on Instagram that she had undergone a second augmentation, 10 years after her first. In
the post, she expressed her gratitude towards her surgeon, adding,
"[I] could not be happier with the results. I was very nervous to re-do my breasts, but
I felt it was necessary for me to feel like my best self. I encourage anyone who doesn’t
feel their best self to work on feeling better. Even if it is the smallest thing every day."
"You go. Do your thing."
While Teresa hasn't been as transparent about other possible cosmetic procedures, many speculate
that she has used fillers in her face and lips, according to The Blast. In a 2021 interview
with the outlet, plastic surgeon Dr. Frank Agullo speculated on the potential procedures
Teresa may have undergone, suggesting,
"A full facelift with a possible neck lift and fat injections to the face."
Dr. Pam Agullo also offered her opinion, estimating,
"She probably had a full face rejuvenation with neurotoxin and fillers under her eyes,
cheekbones, and marionette lines. [She has an] overall refreshed and rejuvenated look."
While only Teresa and her doctors know exactly what work she's had done over the years, for
a reality star about to enter her fifties, we think she's looking better than ever.
