The Real Housewives of New Jersey alum is giving a new look into her life as a mom of three.
Jacqueline Laurita has come a long way since her time on The Real Housewives of New Jersey. The RHONJ alum currently lives in Southern California with her family, and often gives the best updates on all three of her kids on Instagram.
Jacqueline and her husband, Chris Laurita, are the parents of two sons — Chris "CJ" Laurita and Nicholas Laurita — while Jacqueline has a daughter, Ashlee Holmes, from a previous relationship. Jacqueline's Instagram feed is filled with personal photos from her own life, including recent updates on her 15-year-old son, Nicholas.
The mom of three took to Instagram in April where she gave a new look at life with Nicholas today. In the video, the teenager can be seen riding in a car, smiling so widely at his mom as they traveled together. "I love Nick's smile!" she wrote in the caption of the post.
"He's excited to visit his family in Las Vegas!"
Nicholas is a huge fan of car rides and his family. Jacqueline documented a day trip to Huntington Beach, California with Nicholas on Instagram in August, and in the series of videos and photos, Nicholas can be seen exploring the city, hanging out with his grandparents, and browsing in different shops.
"Nick had a great time checking out Old World Village in Huntington Beach with Nana, Grandpa, [Chris], and I! He especially loved the German candy!" she wrote in the caption of the post. "He loves an adventure and he loves his weekend drives!"
Nicholas, who was diagnosed with Autism in 2012, has also been making incredible strides with his journey in communication. Jacqueline revealed on Instagram in August 2024 that Nick has been working with a facilitator to type out messages on a keyboard.
"He can verbally ask for all his needs," she shared. "He can answer some questions[,] but he's not fully conversational..."
Jacqueline's oldest daughter, Ashlee, is still living in New Jersey and co-parenting her son, Cameron Malleo, with her ex-husband, Pete Malleo. Ashlee took to Instagram in February, where she revealed that she moved into a three bedroom house, is still doing makeup for fun, and currently works in skincare for the brand Sunday Riley.
In March, Ashlee and her son adopted a brand new dog — a mini Australian shepherd and corgi mix — named Rocky, and they are absolutely in love with him. Ashlee took to Instagram on April 1, where she posted a Reel filled with clips taken from the past year. In the video, Ashlee can be seen co-parenting with Pete, dancing with Cameron, and taking him to a hockey game in between getting drinks with friends, hanging out with her dad, Matt Holmes, and cuddling up with her new dog.
"Just a tiny glimpse into 2025 so far..." she wrote in the caption of the post.
Later that month, Ashlee and Cameron took a trip to California and Nevada, where she reunited with her mom and younger brothers, and celebrated Jacqueline's birthday. "Didn't even document a fraction of what I intended," she wrote in the caption of an Instagram post. "A lot of being in the moment with the people I love."
Most recently, Ashlee and Cameron went on a "train adventure," which is one of Ashlee's favorite things to do. "I love watching the landscape change," she wrote in the caption of the post. "I love that I can get from point A to point B without the anxiety that flying can sometimes bring me."
Jacqueline's oldest son, CJ, who is now 23 years old, is just a bit more private than his older sister. Jacqueline took to Instagram in April 2024, where she shared a rare update on CJ, who has been living his best life with his girlfriend. A month later, she took to Instagram, where she shared a brand new photo of CJ and Ashlee hanging out together in New Jersey.
"This is my other handsome son CJ that some of you confuse with Nick sometimes," she wrote in the caption of the April post. "He works with his dad. CJ is 21 (22 at the end of May). This is his gorgeous, sweet girlfriend Gia that he's known since the 5th grade. They're like an old married couple. They are very cute."
