On a recent episode of Bethenny's [Rewives podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/rewives-with-bethenny-frankel/id1652108126), the former Bravo star discussed the latest drama affecting the *[Real Housewives of New Jersey](https://allabouttrh.com/category/the-real-housewives-of-new-jersey/) *cast. At the recent RHONJ reunion, several cast members accused [Louie Ruelas](https://allabouttrh.com/2023/06/20/john-fuda-claims-against-louie-ruel/) of hiring Bo Dietl to investigate them. Louie was also accused of creating smear campaigns against several RHONJ cast members. He denied both allegations but admitted to hiring [Bo Dietl](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bo_Dietl) to investigate someone from his past that is [currently stalking and harassing](https://allabouttrh.com/2023/06/09/louie-ruelas-ex-girlfriend-exposed/) him and his wife, [Teresa Giudice](https://allabouttrh.com/category/the-real-housewives-of-new-jersey/teresa-giudice/). Bo Dietl has also [denied ever doing any investigations](https://allabouttrh.com/2023/06/15/andy-cohen-bo-dietl-rhonj-reunion/) on the *Real Housewives of New Jersey* cast. ![RHONJ Reunion: Teresa Giudice and Louie Ruelas confront Joe and Melissa Gorga](https://allabouttrh.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/Screen-Shot-2023-05-24-at-7.21.28-AM-1200x603.jpg)Teresa Giudice and Louie Ruelas at RHONJ reunion Now, the *[Real Housewives of New York](https://allabouttrh.com/category/the-real-housewives-of-new-york/)* alum is weighing on the claims, and you might be surprised to hear whose side Bethenny is on. According to Bethenny, it's ***“brilliant”*** if Louie Ruelas did actually hire a PI to investigate the RHONJ cast. ***“I think it’s really, really smart. Never has there been a group of people that hide information more than the Housewives,”*** she explained, noting that it doesn't matter if you don't have any skeletons in your closet. ***“I wouldn’t care. I’ve actually had someone — an ex of mine — do it on me, and had me followed and recorded and hack my email, to come up with nothing,”*** Bethenny continued. ![Teresa Giudice and Bethenny Frankel appear on WWHL](https://allabouttrh.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/daily-dish-rhonj-rhony-teresa-giudice-bethenny-frankel-1200x800.jpeg)Bravolebs Teresa Giudice and Bethenny Frankel The Bravolebrity added,*** “I think it’s brilliant that Louie did that.”*** She noted that Louie is ***“fighting fire with fire.”*** ***“He’s saying, ‘I walked into this, and everybody’s got s**t on me, so I’m getting s**t on everybody.' I think it’s f**king genius,”*** she quipped. ## Thoughts on this all? Sound off below!
