In May 2022, former “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star Jacqueline Laurita’s middle child, C.J., celebrated his 20th birthday. Laurita shared a photo of C.J. and his father, Chris, on Instagram to commemorate the special day. She wrote, “Rare picture of my older son C.J. who turned 20 years old in May! He started on #rhonj filming his 6th birthday! Where has the time gone?” Fellow “RHONJ” cast mate Caroline Manzo commented on the photo, saying, “He’s a man. And I just saw him a few months ago, but the shock never wears off.”
In June 2022, Laurita’s younger son, Nicholas, officially became a teenager. She announced his 13th birthday on Instagram and shared that he spent the week of his birthday with family in Palm Desert. Laurita wrote, “We love you and are so proud of all of your hard work and accomplishments. You bring us so much joy!” Later that year, she posted his eighth-grade school photo on social media. Laurita has continued to raise awareness about autism and has kept fans updated on her family life.
