Watch: Joe & Teresa Giudice Officially Split After 20 Years of Marriage

Things are so good between Teresa Giudice and her new boyfriend, she's using this special word. 

It's been nearly five months since fans officially learned of the new romance in the Real Housewives of New Jersey star's life. "Excited to reveal my new boyfriend," the mom of four teased in a Facebook post on Nov. 9. While she was coy about the details at first, Teresa is not hiding the fact that she's head over heels these days for her man, Luis "Louie" Ruelas. During a remote appearance Wednesday, March 24 on Watch What Happens Live, she dished on her relationship to host Andy Cohen, including that Luis wanted to travel to the Bahamas to meet her famous ex-husband, Joe Giudice.

While it doesn't seem like the trip has happened yet, she shared that they have spoken on the phone. And, in addition to usual couple behavior—like double dating with her brother Joe Gorga and sister-in-law Melissa Gorga—the two have even invested in a multimillion dollar property together.

As for how this relationship is different from her 20-year marriage to Joe, it sounds like the two are on the same page. "With Louie, he's very open. He gets me to open up. I know exactly what he's feeling. He expresses his feelings," she explained too Cohen. "I like a lot of attention, so does he, so we both give each other a lot of attention...We can't keep our hands off each other."

While it's only been months, Giudice isn't shooting down the prospect of marriage, either. "I feel it," she said, "so we'll see what happens." 

Feels it and is saying it out loud! In addition to dropping the L-word, Teresa gave him this esteemed title: "I really feel like he's my soulmate."
