Luis Ruelas took aim at Margaret Josephs after sharing a photo of him and his son on vacation on Instagram.
As fans questioned him about how he’d feel if someone wished suffering on his child and wondered how he felt about ruining the Real Housewives of New Jersey, Luis, 50, ignored the inquiries, instead putting a spotlight on “pathetic” Margaret, 57, and accusing her of using her son for a storyline.
“How would you feel if someone wished your son to suffer? You shouldn’t throw stones!” someone wrote to Luis in a comment on August 13.
“I wouldn’t use my son as a story line! PATHETIC!” he replied.
Another wondered, “How do you feel that you killed a housewife franchise?”
“People should stop using [their] kids as story lines … PATHETIC,” he again responded.
After reading what Luis had to say, a number of other commenters accused him of making “no sense” and asked what he was talking about as they signaled to Teresa Giudice, 52, and her children’s involvement with the show.
“Wtf is he talking about? Tre pranced her kids around the entire existence of [RHONJ],” someone stated.
“You are the one that brought up the son. No one was talking about him, but you,” noted another.
Someone else wondered why Luis wasn’t taking accountability and was instead placing the blame on Margaret.
“Imagine getting caught threatening someone’s child and acting like talking about it is the real crime. This man is coo coo,” they wrote.
Although Luis didn’t seem very apologetic toward Margaret in the comments, he previously released a statement on his Instagram Story in which he claimed to have regrets about wishing harm on her son after being slammed as “sick” and “inhuman” for the threat.
“After watching the finale, I was disappointed in my actions in bringing up Margaret [Josephs’] son. The reason he was even brought up was because I have been dealing with being falsely accused of calling [Margaret’s] son at work which is simply not true,” he wrote. “Still, I know better not to bring someone’s child up and it is something I deeply regret so I do want to apologize and acknowledge that I was wrong.”
Luis then reminded his fans and followers that he had been “dealing with a lot of frustrating things behind the scenes.”
“It has been very hard for our entire family and my children who have been really impacted by all that’s happened at the hands of certain people. Two wrongs don’t make a right and I deeply regret saying what I said,” he added.
As for Margaret, she reacted to Luis’ hateful words toward her family on SiriusXM’s Reality Checked with Kiki Monique.
“I find it appalling, disgusting … No one says that. It’s horrifying. It’s very disgraceful,” she stated.
The Real Housewives of New Jersey is currently on pause ahead of season 15.
