Teresa Giudice flaunts her toned physique in a leopard bikini after RHONJ is put ‘on pause’

Real Housewives of New Jersey’s Teresa Giudice showed off her curves in a leopard print bikini from Nua Swim tied at the hips as she posed on a balcony in Puerto Rico on Tuesday.

The 51-year-old pin-up is enjoying a beach vacation at a luxury resort with her 48-year-old husband, Luis Ruelas. She captioned the post: “Love love love Puerto Rico ❤️.”

The Dancing With The Stars alumnus, who has 2.3 million Instagram followers, styled her long dark brown locks straight down and opted for smokey eye makeup with a glossy pink lip.

The mother-of-four wore a Caso Boutique fishnet cover-up with a side slit and accessorized with large diamond stud earrings.

The star recently celebrated her 51st birthday on May 18 after her Bravo show was “put on hiatus” due to a feud between Giudice and her sister-in-law Melissa Gorga, 44, according to Page six.

The women – who yelled at each other during the season finale – are said to have been “legitimately estranged,” with the network unsure how to proceed.

According to the publication, none of the castmates have been offered contracts for the next season, and no one has been fired at this time. There is currently no date for Season 14 to begin filming.

Giudice and Gorga had a huge falling out while filming the Season 13 finale due to rumors that Melissa was cheating on her husband – Teresa’s brother Joe Gorga – and kissing an old friend Nick Barrotta.

Filming was set to resume in June following Giudice’s wedding to Ruelas and the upcoming Season 13 reunion, but showrunners informed the cast that production might not begin until 2024, if at all.

The hiatus has caused some women to start planning their summer vacation, while others are worried about a financial blow from not filming.

Season 13 of the reality show, which is currently airing, stars Giudice, Gorga, Jennifer Aydin, Margaret Josephs, Danielle Cabral, Dolores Catania and Rachel Fuda.

Last month, while filming the season 13 reunion, Giudice became “completely unhinged” and “out of control” during the sit-down. A source added that she was “mean than ever” and “swears” a lot.

After the reunion, host Andy Cohen admitted that he lost his throat at Teresa during the heated episode, but later apologized.

“The level of, I won’t even say vitriol, I’ll say, hate Teresa and Melissa [have] … I mean, the gloves are off,” the Bravo personality, 54, recalled on an episode of SiriusXM’s Andy Cohen Live.

“I’ve never seen anything like it, and the way those two went back and forth,” he added.

“There was a point where I turned to Teresa — I apologized to her later — I wasn’t yelling at her, but I think I lost my s*** with her in a way I may never have. ,’ he said.

The Watch What Happens Live host didn’t go into detail about exactly what happened, but he alluded to the fact that there were “a bunch of new allegations” and “new material to come in” and that Teresa wouldn’t stop bickering with her sister-in-laws.

Meanwhile, during the season finale, Melissa stated that she would not go to Giudice’s wedding after they yelled at each other.

The reality star yelled at Teresa at an Irish-themed party after learning that a false rumor was still circulating about her.

“I wasn’t about to confront her about this because Joe doesn’t believe it, it’s bullshit, and because I wanted to give her a quiet six months leading up to her wedding,” Melissa said in a confessional.

Melissa, who previously admitted she considered boycotting the wedding, told Danielle that “half the reason” Joe can’t look Teresa in the eye was “because she called him to her house that day.”

Later, Joe said in a confessional that they told him about the rumor and Louie suggested that there were “several men.”

“I sit there when they basically tell me to leave Melissa. A few days later, Gia calls me. And she’s like, “You know, I heard what happened. We just think you can do better. Mom thinks you can, we all do.” So I said to myself am I around people who love me or people who want to hurt me? It sucks,” Joe said, referring to Teresa’s oldest daughter Gia.
