Jacqueline Laurita worked as a cosmetologist in Las Vegas before turning full-time New Jersey mum. Her husband Chris, brother of Caroline and Dina Manzo, owns several wholesale apparel businesses and the couple have been together for more than 13 years. They have a six-year old son, CJ, and Jacqueline has a teenage daughter, Ashley, from a previous marriage. In the latest series, Jacqueline gives birth to the couple's second son, Nicholas.
Jacqueline and her sisters-in-law enjoy spending time together and can often be found shopping at the latest boutiques or getting their hair done for a night out. Her family are her main priority and her husband is her best friend. Aside from spending time with family, Jacqueline enjoys cooking, working out, and going to the spa. She likes to pamper herself with regular facials, manicures and pedicures. She believes in taking care of herself and doesn't plan on just growing old gracefully.
Always looking for a good laugh, Jacqueline tries to see the humour in everything and is often referred to as the peacemaker between her friends. Although she lives a lavish lifestyle, Jacqueline considers herself to be very down to earth and knows that she is blessed.
