Get a Behind-the-Scenes Look at the Giudices' Holiday Photoshoot
RHONJ's Teresa Giudice looked angelic as she posed alongside her blended family: "Wishing you all nothing but love."
The Giudices are sending love, love, love this holiday season.
On Thursday, December 21, Teresa Giudice took to Instagram to reveal her family’s 2023 Christmas photos. And, yes, they were as sweet and glorious as you probably imagined.
Photographer Angie Lopez took the pictures inside Teresa’s Montville mansion, which she shares with her entrepreneur husband, Luis “Louie” Ruelas. Teresa and her four daughters — Gia, Gabriella, Milania, and Audriana Giudice — were seen sitting on a white couch that was flanked by two life-size nutcrackers, while Louie and his sons — Nicholas and Louie Jr. Ruelas — sat on the floor.
The Giudice ladies looked absolutely angelic in their matching white pajamas with feathery details at the cuffs. The Ruelas men donned matching white V-neck tees with bright red pajama bottoms.
“Happy Holidays from our family to yours!” Teresa captioned the post. “Wishing you all nothing but love, happiness, and health. Hoping everyone has a blessed New Year!”
Milania Giudice shares an inside look at her family's Christmas shoot
Several days after the post, Milania hit up TikTok to share a behind-the-scenes look at the festive photoshoot, which included plenty of heartwarming moments. The Real Housewives of New Jersey daughter began by highlighting her family’s “cute” PJs and proceeded to shower her relatives with compliments.
“We’re doing Christmas photos today, guys. We’re all wearing matching PJs, mommy’s running around,” she said before turning the camera toward her sisters. “Wow, you’re so pretty! My Gabriella is home from college, I love you… Oh my god, look how cute you girls look! Audriana, let me see you, cuteness! Oh, you’re so gorgeous. She’s such an angel.”
Milania then captured some footage of “the queen,” Teresa.
“You look just so beautiful,” Milania told her mom, as they waited for the shoot to begin. “So this is our little setup for our little Christmas shoot today. Merry Christmas, happy holidays, you filthy animals.”
Teresa Giudice pens a sweet message to Louie Ruelas: "Love you endlessly"
The video then cut to the actual shoot, which consisted of various setups, including a few of just the parents. Teresa shared one of those photos in a December 24 Instagram with a romantic message for her hubby, whom she married in 2022.
“Merry Christmas my Love,” she captioned the picture. “You are the gift that never stops giving in ever way. Love you endlessly and so grateful to have you in my life.”
The Giudice daughters will reunite with their dad in the Bahamas
The Giudices will conclude the holiday season in the Bahamas, where they will celebrate New Year’s Eve with Teresa’s ex-husband, Joe Giudice, who was deported from the United States in 2019. The RHONJ OG confirmed the plans at BravoCon 2023, saying the family trip was Louie’s idea.
“The girls are so excited that we’re gonna be together,” she said during a panel. “I wish [Joe] well. I’m gonna meet his girlfriend, he’s had a few. So I’m happy for him… I wish one day he could come back to the United States, because it wasn’t fair what happened to him.”
