Teresa Giudice is in trouble again, now facing a large amount in tax liens with her spouse.

The “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star and husband Luis Ruelas have received over $3 million in tax liens, according to documents obtained by PEOPLE.

The records show Giudice owing a sum of $303,889.20 and Ruelas owing nearly $2.6 million. Ruelas was issued another tax lien back in December for an amount of $163,523.94, per the report.

Giudice, 52, served 11 months in prison for mail, wire and bankruptcy fraud in 2015.

The Paterson native and reality television star married Ruelas, 49, in 2022 following a divorce from former husband Joe Giuidce in 2020.

Joe also served jail time for similar fraud crimes in 2016. He completed a 41-month sentence in 2019 and was deported to Italy.

Giudice has been a cast member of Bravo TV’s New Jersey rendition of the “Real Housewives” franchise since its inception in 2009. She is the last remaining original cast member of the show.

Guidice and Ruelas live in Montville with six kids—four from Guidice’s previous marriage, two from Ruelas’ previous marriage. The home was purchased in 2021.
