Tiffany “New York” Pollard admitted to crushing on Luis “Louie” Ruelas before she accused him of cheating on Teresa Giudice — according to the “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star.
Following her shocking exit from “House of Villains” Season 2, Giudice, 52, exclusively tells Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” how Pollard, 42, apologized to Ruelas, 49, after spreading false infidelity rumors on the E! reality show.
“When she saw Louie, she was like, ‘Louie, Louie, Louie! You are so fine!’ She was, like, funny,” she says of Pollard’s apology at the New York City premiere party for “House of Villains” in October.
“He told me what she said to her, I was, like, laughing,” she continues. “Because my makeup artist and hairdresser were with him and they acted it out and I was laughing so hard.”
Teresa Giudice tells Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” that “House of Villains” co-star Tiffany “New York” Pollard admitted to thinking Luis “Louie” Ruelas was “so fine.”
Pollard previously accused Ruelas of cheating on the “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star while filming the E! reality show.
Pollard previously expressed remorse to Giudice herself while filming the unscripted completion series, a gesture that the latter appreciated.
“I just stayed away from her after that and she ended up saying sorry to me, which you guys saw. And I was like, ‘Why would you say that?’” the “RHONJ” OG recounts.
“And then she ended up apologizing to Louie the night I saw you guys [‘Virtual Reali-Tea’ co-hosts Danny Murphy and Evan Real] at the premiere party.”
Still, Giudice doesn’t understand why Pollard would choose to attack her marriage.
Giudice thought it was “funny” that Pollard copped to crushing on her spouse.
“My poor husband is getting DMs now that say, ‘Oh, he cheated on Teresa.’ It’s, like, so false. But of course, Tiffany had to say that,” she laments to us. “I would never do that to Tiffany, but if she felt like she needed to do that and she feels good about it, then that’s on her.”
The Lips by Teresa founder says that she was generally unfazed throughout the ordeal, noting that she has to “really care” about an individual for them to make her “really mad.”
“I have to really care about the person or they have to really hurt me really, really bad, I guess, to get a reaction out of me,” she shares. “Otherwise, if I know you’re doing it just to get a rise out of me, it’s not going to happen. I’m just going to laugh at you.”
In an explosive “House of Villains” scene that aired last month, a dramatic fight between the two women broke out during which Pollard accused Ruelas of cheating — only after the “Flavor of Love” alum heard rumblings that Giudice was going to vote her off the show.
Pollard ripped into Giudice’s marriage to Ruelas during an explosive fight that aired in a November episode of “House of Villains.”
Giudice called Pollard “disgusting” for claiming that Ruelas had been unfaithful.
“You know what? F–k you, Teresa, you bitch!” Pollard shouted. “Seriously, you coming for me? You coming for New York? I’m not even up [for elimination], and you’re talking about you coming for me? You want me gone, for real?”
Without much reaction from Giudice, Pollard went for the jugular by suggesting that Ruelas had only sent a large bouquet of flowers to make up for his alleged unfaithfulness.
“You know why Luis really sent those roses? Because he’s guilty, bitch! He’s been f–king around, and each one of those roses represent how many times he cheated on your ass since you been in here!” she claimed.
Pollard eventually apologized to Giudice on camera.
The “I Love New York” star appeared on “House of Villains” Season 1 before returning for its sophomore installment.
In response, Giudice repeatedly called Pollard “disgusting.”
She continued, “What did you get? Did you get any flowers? You jealous? You jealous? Jealous, bitch? She’s so jealous. It’s so funny!”
Giudice and Ruelas tied the knot in August 2022.
Meanwhile, Pollard has been engaged to a mystery man for some time — which has apparently overlapped with her affinity for Ruelas’ good looks.
Back in October, Pollard copped to “[creating] invisible issues” with Giudice simply for sport.
Giudice spoke with “Virtual Reali-Tea” after her shocking elimination.
“I say, in the ‘House of Villains,’ there ain’t no hard feelings because when I want to create some invisible issues, I’m going to do that,” the “I Love New York” star — who returned to the series after making a splash competing on Season 1 — said during a press junket.
“So I was bored, and I wanted to just shake up my roommate and have a little fun.”
“House of Villains” airs Thursdays at 9 p.m. on E! with new episodes available to stream on Peacock.
