The Season 13 finale of RHONJ was so explosive and bitter that you could almost forget one little detail.
Furious and somehow even redder than usual, Luis Ruelas boasted about having hired a somewhat famous private investigator.
The goal? To dig up dirt on all of Teresa Giudice’s castmates for, what, reality TV leverage?
That private investigator has a very public persona, and he’s slapping down claims that Luis did anything of the sort.

On May 16, The Real Housewives of New Jersey witnessed a complete meltdown of all the cast members. Teresa and Luis had told Teresa and Joe about the rumor. Because they had told Joe this “news” behind Melissa’sback, in an obvious effort to sabotage their marriage. Melissa Gorga is used to backstabbing by this point. Even her in-law.

Melissa had kept quiet about it in the buildup to Teresa’s wedding as a courtesy. Teresa’s minions brought it up and the time for courtesy had clearly passed. Teresa and Melissa have had a nasty feud for years.

Perhaps the only positive thing that anyone outside of Teresa’s “love bubble” has to say about Luis is that … this is untrue.
Bo Dietl spoke directly to

“I’m a professional, I’ve been in business 38 years,” Dietl described. “We have done major investigations for large corporations, and that’s all.” And I have some very good clients.”
Referring to his brother-in-law, Luis Ruelas says that he has remained “calm in the last three months around an animal like that?a (Image Credit: Bravo) (Bravo)“To me, it’s not a positive thing when people throw my name around. Dietl said that he had mentioned, “Bo Dietl is the best private detective in the world.” He then said, “Thank you for the compliment but please don’t mention my name.” He added that, had he taken such a job, he would not be able to mention it — in any context.
Making quite the facial expression, Luis Ruelas accuses that his brother-in-law’s issues and their timing are deliberate. “I know him, and I know Teresa,” Dietl speculated. That’s probably why he uses me to I guess shake people,” Dietl speculated.

“And who are you bringing out here?” You bring out the bull. “I have stuff on everyone,” Dietl said. He added: “Now, they’re thinking, because they are probably doing something wrong, and they ask, ‘Oh, s-t. What does Bo have on my? ‘”
Yeah

Meanwhile, Dietl shared that contracting his services for something that expansive would cost in the “high” six figures.Could Luis afford that? Perhaps. Should he? Obviously not..
