Dina Manzo appears to have unfollowed Teresa Giudice and her husband, Luis “Louie” Ruelas, on Instagram — despite a source previously shutting down rumors of a feud.
The update to Manzo’s follower list comes after speculation that she and Giudice, 51, had a falling out before the “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star’s wedding to Ruelas.
Giudice’s brother, Joe Gorga, claimed in an April episode of “RHONJ” that Ruelas “f—ked up” her friendship with Manzo after a business deal with Manzo’s husband, Dave Cantin, went south.
“It f—ked up another relationship in Teresa’s life,” Gorga claimed in a confessional.
However, a source later told Page Six that Gorga’s claims about a rift were not true and that the two husbands “never” did business together.
“There is no issue at all, zero issue,” the insider said, calling any allegations to the contrary “comical.”
The rumors of a feud began after it was revealed that Giudice’s longtime pal would not be attending her wedding to Ruelas in August 2022.
But an insider also squashed speculation of a rift at the time, telling Page Six that Manzo, 51, would not attend because she didn’t want to be filmed.
“Dina has made it clear that she does not want to be on camera, and Teresa is OK with it,” the source said.
“Teresa respects Dina’s wishes and looks forward to celebrating with her in the future,” the insider added. “They remain as close as ever.”
Manzo starred on “RHONJ” from 2009 to 2010. After her exit, she made a brief return to the show in 2014 before leaving the Bravo life behind and moving to Los Angeles.

The former reality star and her husband were with Giudice and Ruelas when they got engaged in Greece in October 2021. Manzo also attended the couple’s engagement party.
Manzo also denied claims that she and Giudice were on bad terms during an Instagram Q&A in November 2022.
When a fan asked if she and Giudice were “friends again,” Manzo responded that the two were “never not friends.”
She added, “Sometimes friendships go [through phases], but in the end, true friendships will always find their way back when the time is right.”
