'RHONJ' star John Fuda demands public apology from Teresa Giudice for accusing him of being a specific sort of criminal
FRANKLIN LAKES, NEW JERSEY: Luis 'Louie' Ruelas and Teresa Giudice sought to sit down with the Fudas to resolve their disagreement in the Season 14 episode of 'The Real Housewives of New Jersey' that aired on Sunday, June 9.
However, John Fuda firmly expressed that Teresa should publicly apologize for labeling him as a drug dealer and a parking attendant. Rachel Fuda and John sat down with Teresa and Louie. Teresa had prepared a gift for the Fudas to bring to Melissa Gorga and Joe Gorga's housewarming celebration.
When Teresa mentioned to John that she no longer felt connected to him, he inquired about the reasons behind her change in feelings.
Teresa retorted that they threw the first punch, implying that John should apologize for harming Louie's business in response to his demand for a sincere apology. Following this exchange, John and Rachel decided to leave the room. John stated as he was leaving, "Just remember - you're the poster child for mortgage fraud."
What does 'RHONJ's John Fuda do for a living?
John's LinkedIn page profile outlines his professional journey, indicating that he has been serving as a manager at Fuda Tile and Marble since the year 2000.
John's family has owned and operated the tile firm since it was founded in 1948. John has worked for his family firm for 24 years in addition to owning his own business.
In 2013, he founded Valet King, where he currently holds the positions of President and CEO. According to the Valet King website, the firm provides a range of services including parking and valet services, door attendants, concierge services, car washes, and other amenities, catering to both residential and commercial buildings.
Typically, parking garages, casinos, hotels, and auto dealerships are among the primary recipients of these services. Rachel's 'RHONJ' cast bio described this business as "fast-growing."
This company, originally founded in New Jersey, has expanded its operations beyond the state. It now offers services in Miami, Florida, New York, and Philadelphia.
John and Rachel work closely together at both of his businesses based in Ramsey. They previously ran a Burger Boss restaurant, where they served cuisine inspired by the Fudas' love for Mafia films.
Rachel's tagline for Season 13 of 'RHONJ' was, "I’m too busy running a business to care about yours," as fans may remember. Season 13's opening episode included Rachel's account of how she met John.
She was then employed as a bartender in Totowa at the age of 22. Meanwhile, John began making business decisions at the age of 24. He informed her at that time that he had recently sold the pizzeria he owned.
Rachel recalls, "He was trying to be like, a hotshot." Rachel referred to her spouse as a "superstar" in Season 13. Additionally, according to Rachel, John used to model.
Despite reports of his appearance on a 'Law & Order' episode, John's IMDb profile does not list this credit. However, he did return to pose for Dolores Catania's charity calendar on the show.
What is 'RHONJ' star John Fuda’s net worth?
It's believed that John has a considerable net worth, with Entrader estimating it to be around $2.5 million.
However, The Cinemaholic calculated that his net worth may reach $5.5 million. According to Life & Style, Rachel's estimated net worth when she joined the program was $400,000.
Although her precise 'RHONJ' pay is unknown, it's reasonable to infer that she's not earning as much as the other established Jersey Housewives or OG Teresa in her sophomore season.
'RHONJ's John Fuda dismissed rumors about dark past
When 'RHONJ' Season 14 premiered in May, John used social media to address rumors about his background. In an Instagram message, he often described himself as a "respected" and "esteemed" "entrepreneur and philanthropist" in response to the accusations.
In addition, he stated that he was committed to "numerous charitable causes and business endeavors." He advised contacting the Fudas rather than a hired PR when making media queries.
Perhaps PR is Fuda's most recent venture into business. John addressed yet another drug-related charge from the previous year, acknowledging that he had been arrested for driving while under the influence of drugs. "I was never convicted, and the charges were dismissed," he said to Page Six.
