Teresa Giudice and her husband Luis Ruelas are in millions worth of tax debt.

The Real Housewives of New Jersey star and her husband are facing about $3 million each in tax liens.

Records show that Teresa owes $303,889.20 while Ruelas is supposed to pay nearly $2.6 million, People Magazine reported.

The new debt comes three months after Ruelas was issued another lien for $163,523.94 in December 2024. The first lien is still an open case, the publication cited the New Jersey Courts website.

Meanwhile, Giudice has previously served an 11-month sentence in prison in 2015 for mail, wire, and bankruptcy fraud. Her ex-husband, Joe Giudice also completed his 41-month sentence in 2019.

The reality TV star, who married Ruelas in 2022, has addressed her time behind bars several times.

"I know in my heart I was not supposed to go there. I know I only went because I'm in the public eye," she said in the same year.

"Listen, I'll shout it out to the world. I signed two contracts that Joe was flipping [for] two homes he was buying. That's all I did. I knew nothing about what he was doing. I mean, I have nothing to hide. Like, I did my time already, you know?"
