EXCLUSIVE: Real-life Wolf of Wall Street Jordan Belfort's ex-wife says he has NEVER apologized to her for his crimes - as she admits he's FURIOUS she's posting intimate details about their romance on TikTok (despite penning his own tell-all book about it)

The real-life Wolf of Wall Street’s ex-wife has revealed that the financial crook never apologized to her – and has admitted that he’s not pleased that she’s sharing the intimate details of their tumultuous romance on TikTok, despite him previously releasing a tell-all book about it that went on to inspire the movie.

Nadine Macaluso, 56, who now works as a marriage counselor and family therapist in Florida, met Jordan Belfort, 61, when she was just 22 years old and working as a model.

The two soon became engulfed in a whirlwind romance, tying the knot in 1991 and welcoming two children together – before they ultimately divorced in 2005 after 14 years of marriage.

After they went their separate ways, Nadine accused the broker of physical and mental abuse, which she said was fueled by his rampant drug addiction and multiple infidelities.

Their relationship was portrayed in the 2013 flick Wolf of Wall Street, which starred Leonardo DiCaprio as Jordan and Margot Robbie as Nadine, who was renamed Naomi for the movie

Now, the model-turned-therapist has spoken exclusively to DailyMail.com about how she made peace with her ex for the sake of their kids, despite him never saying sorry for what he put her through.

When asked if Jordan had ever apologized to her, Nadine admitted, ‘No. He never made amends to me. And I don’t expect that from him.’

As for how she found a way to become amicable with him, despite his lack of regret over the way he treated her, she said she had to make an ‘adult choice’ to put their children first.

‘[After the split] I took my kids to California and he was in New York. I had a lot of time away from him and a lot of time to heal,’ she explained.

‘Because we had children together I made a choice, really, as their mother, to keep a good relationship with him, the best that I could.

‘That doesn’t mean we’ve always gotten along, but in the end, we’ve always put our kids first because we have an obligation to them.

‘We brought them into the world. How I feel towards him is different than how he behaves towards my kids, so as long as he’s a good dad [that’s what matters].’

The 56-year-old previously spoke out about Jordan’s ‘callous and painful’ response after she finally confronted him about the harrowing ‘abuse and trauma’ she suffered at his hands.

Nadine explained in a TikTok video last fall that she decided to bring up some of the terrible things she had endured throughout their marriage six months after he got sober.

But she said his reaction opened her eyes to how much of a ‘narcissist’ he really was.

‘I said to him, “Jordan, that was so hard what I had to endure with your drug addiction and abuse. It was just so traumatizing,”‘ she recalled.

Nadine explained in a TikTok video last fall that when she brought up some of the terrible things she had endured throughout their marriage, he said, ‘It wasn’t that bad’

‘And he goes, “It wasn’t that bad.” Right in that moment, my heart closed. His insensitivity and callousness towards the pain that he caused me was worse than the abuse.’

Nadine and Jordan’s relationship – as well as his illicit stock market scheme, which saw him steal nearly $200 million from investors – was portrayed in the wildly popular 2013 flick Wolf Of Wall Street, which was based off the book he wrote, and starred Leonardo DiCaprio as Jordan and Margot Robbie as Nadine, who was renamed Naomi for the movie.

Jordan went on to spend 22 months in prison after it was brought to light that he had scammed more than 1,500 people through the elaborate stock market con in 1999.

The mom-of-two has become a viral TikTok star in recent months for spilling numerous secrets about their marriage, revealing which scenes of the Martin Scorsese film were accurate and which were exaggerated, and using her experience to give others who may be dealing with unhealthy relationships advice.

She admitted to DailyMail.com that Jordan was not happy with her after he discovered that she was discussing their relationship online.

But Nadine insisted that she was not ‘using the Wolf engine’ to ‘disparage him,’ but rather, to share her ‘side of things’ and ’empower women.’

‘Initially, he did not like it,’ she shared. ‘He [still] does not love it but I think he’s come to accept it.

‘Here’s the thing, I’m not doing this at all to disparage him. Why would I do that to my children?

‘I’m just expressing my narrative and my side of things. And like I said, at the end of the day, the good news is, we’re all OK now.

‘I’m really using the Wolf engine to educate women about trauma bonds. And to empower them.’

Earlier this month, Nadine released a book entitled Run Like Hell: A Therapist’s Guide To Recognizing, Escaping, And Healing From Trauma Bonds as a bid to help survivors ‘go on to have healthy, positive relationships and lives, armed with knowledge and awareness.’

But she insisted: ‘Here’s the thing, I’m not doing this at all to disparage him. I’m just expressing my narrative and my side of things. I’m really using the Wolf engine to educate women about trauma bonds’

She has since remarried, and she has been with her new husband, John Macaluso, who has three kids from a past relationship, for 23 years now.

The author previously told DailyMail.com that she was terrified when she found out they were going to make a movie about her and Jordan’s romance.

She said she was ‘so nervous’ about ‘how she was going to be portrayed’ because she didn’t think director Martin loved women.

‘I thought about how he sometimes portrays women,’ she explained. ‘And I had no say or input.

‘That’s a very crazy situation to be in – you’re going to get portrayed for the whole world to see, but you have no input on how they’re gonna do it.’

Nadine added that she did ‘a lot of therapy’ to prepare herself for it, and ultimately ‘surrendered.’

Despite her initial nerves, Nadine recalled feeling relieved when she watched it for the first time.

‘It’s maybe not exactly the way I would [tell the story], that wasn’t my narrative or the way I saw myself through that whole experience, but it was fine,’ she added. ‘I was totally OK with it. It wasn’t that bad.’
