RHONJ: Kim D Reveals Sex & The City Wedding Was Not Luis Ruelas' Idea

screenrant.com:

In The Real Housewives of New Jersey season 12 reunion, Teresa Giudice’s fiancé, Luis Ruelas, said he wanted to have a Sex And The City courthouse wedding but former “friend of” Kim DePaola revealed that he stole the idea from his ex. Teresa’s relationship with Luis became the focal point for much of RHONJ season 12. Although her castmates were happy for her newfound love, they were concerned about Luis’ strange warrior camp video and abuse allegations made by his exes. Unfortunately, Teresa shut down any discussion surrounding Luis and refused to let him address anything on RHONJ.

During the RHONJ season 12 reunion, host Andy Cohen finally gave Luis the chance to clear up all the rumors and accusations that were in the media. Luis explained that his warrior camp video was a last-ditch effort to save his relationship with his ex-fiancé. He explained in the reunion that when he got home from the retreat, his ex demanded that he give her $1 million in order for her to marry him, which prompted him to break off the engagement. He also shared that Sex And The City was his favorite show and that he had wanted to get married at the courthouse and go to a diner afterwards, just like Carrie and Big did.
