The real-life relationship drama never seems to end for the stars of Jersey Shore, but this newest scandal is seriously twisted.
A recent report in The U.S. Sun claims that Nicole ‘Snooki’ Polizzi and her husband, Jionni LaValle, are living apart. When you hear the real truth about Snooki’s marital problems, you’ll know why this story is even crazier than it sounds.

Snooki and Jionni’s Marriage Is ‘In Trouble After [The] Ashley Madison Doc’
The headline in the Sun’s exclusive report claims Snooki and Jionni are “never together” and their marriage is “in trouble after [the] Ashley Madison doc.”
If you’re wondering who Ashley is, it’s not a person. Ashley Madison is an infamous website that helps “subscribers” arrange “extra-marital affairs.” What does this have to do with Snooki and Jionni’s decade-long marriage?
That’s where this scandal gets twisted, and it goes all the way back to 2015.
Nine years ago, the Ashley Madison website suffered a hack, and the fallout received international headlines. Many unfaithful “subscribers” got caught in the hack, and one alleged subscriber was connected to Snooki.
Snooki and Jionni Allegedly ‘Have Regular Explosive Fights’
If you didn’t already know or guess, the alleged Ashley Madison subscriber was Jionni, and the Sun claimed that his email was found “among the alleged subscribers” who’d signed up to cheat on their spouses.
More recently, the Sun alleged that “multiple sources” have revealed that 36-year-old Snooki and 37-year-old Jionni are “rarely under the same roof these days.” When they do have to be in the same place, Snooki and Jionni allegedly “sleep in separate rooms.”
If these sources are telling the truth, Snooki and Jionni can’t even talk these days without yelling. The sources alleged that Snooki and her husband “have regular explosive fights” when they go face-to-face.
Another shocking claim made by the sources is that MTV cameras have “captured” Snooki’s “fallout” after her fights with Jionni. However, the drama never seems “to make the cut” on the current spinoff of Jersey Shore.
If MTV doesn’t want the world to know about Snooki’s allegedly broken marriage, another source alleged that Snooki complains to “everyone” around her about her unhappy ending.
Source Claims Snooki and Jionni Allegedly ‘Stay Apart A Lot Of The Time’
According to this source, Snooki and Jionni allegedly “stay apart a lot of the time.” So far, in 2024, the source claimed that Snooki “hadn’t seen Jionni in a while,” and “within the last several months,” Snooki said that her husband “had left the house.”
This source also made an unbelievable claim that Snooki and “her more camera-shy husband” take turns living between “two houses they own in different parts of New Jersey.”
Even though Snooki makes her living as a Jersey Shore star, the source alleges that Jionni “often” stays in their house closer to the beach. Allegedly, Snooki stays “at their house further inland,” and the source revealed that this house is “about an hour north” of the property at the shore.
Source Throws Shade At Jionni LaValle
The source also threw shade at Jionni’s cold-sounding sleeping arrangement. They alleged that Snooki “will sleep in her bed with the kids” while her husband stays in “another bedroom,” and Jionni doesn’t “get into their bed” until Snooki “leaves.”
If this doesn’t sound bad enough, the source made a cringe-worthy allegation about “devastating, name-calling fights” between Snooki and Jionni. Sadly, the source claims that these fights often end with Snooki “in tears.”
Why Is MTV Withholding ‘Fallout’ Between Snooki and Jionni?
Reality TV viewers might not believe this “perplexed” source, who doesn’t know why MTV doesn’t show the “fallout” between Snooki and Jionni on air.
The source claimed to know for sure that MTV had filmed Snooki’s reaction during fights she had with Jionni. But they said, “For some reason, those cuts never seem to see the light of day.”
Snooki’s alleged marriage drama sounds juicy enough to shock reality TV viewers, so if MTV knows about this but isn’t revealing it, that just makes this scandal more twisted.
The Sun claimed to have another source “close to production,” and this source alleges that Snooki is totally “open about her marital woes” on the set of Jersey Shore.
According to this source, Snooki is “always” alleging that she “doesn’t have the best relationship with her husband,” and they added that Snooki “says it in front of everyone all the time, but it never airs.”
Source Claims MTV Wants to ‘Protect’ Snooki From ‘Negative Storylines’
It sounds like the two sources have very similar stories, and they’re trying to set the record straight on Snooki’s allegedly failing marriage. However, one of these insiders also has a shocking theory about why MTV doesn’t want Jersey Shore fans to know.
They told the Sun that MTV wants to “protect” Snooki from “negative storylines” on Jersey Shore simply because she’s a “fan favorite” with the largest social media following.
In yet another twisted side to this story, a headline in The U.S. Sun claimed that “Jersey Shore fans” had found a “new clue” that Snooki split up with Jionni.
Nicole ‘Snooki’ Polizzi Clapped Back at Trolls
This report was published on January 26, 2024, and shockingly, the Sun wrote that Snooki “clapped back at trolls who claimed she’s having marriage troubles with her husband.” If this is the real truth, what happened to that “venting Snooki,” who sources allege is “always complaining about her marriage?”
Jersey Shore fans thought they found that “clue” in the oddest place: Instagram photos of a first birthday party for Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino’s daughter, Mia Bella.
Mike shared the photos on social media, and one group photo with the Jersey Shore cast got the “trolls” jumping into the comments section. Someone wondered why Jionni is never “around,” and that comment got Snooki’s back up.
The Sun reported that Snooki “immediately defended” her husband, scolding the commenter with a reply that Jionni was “at home with my three kids. Let him be.”
However, the Sun wasn’t immediately rushing to Snooki’s defense. They wrote that “split rumors have long circulated between the pair as Jionni prefers to keep his life more private than his famous wife.”
How Snooki and Jionni Met
Considering how they first met on a crazy episode of the OG Jersey Shore, it’s no wonder why Jionni is more interested in staying private these days.
The year was 2010, and an extremely intoxicated Snooki was filmed at the Karma nightclub for season three of Jersey Shore. She met Jionni that night, but as the Sun reported, Snooki wasn’t sober enough to remember her future husband’s name, and she called Jionni “Bernard” instead.
There are two sides to the ongoing split rumor, and one is the real truth.
Why Did Jionni Quit Jersey Shore?
In 2018, Jionni revealed that he wouldn’t appear in any more Jersey Shore spinoffs, including the most recent Jersey Shore: Family Vacation.
This would indicate that Jionni wants to maintain his privacy, but at the same time, the Sun claimed that Jionni’s decision to quit Jersey Shore raised concerns “that he and Snooki were having marriage issues.”
Shockingly, Jionni took to Instagram to defend himself and his family, and his social media post sounded like his decision was final.
He wrote, “Hey guys, I’m going to visit this subject one time and one time only.” Then he explained how Snooki was “filming a scene packing up and leaving for her new show,” and Jionni wrote in all caps, “I AM CHOOSING TO NOT be on TV because I simply DO NOT like it.”
Is Snooki Pregnant With Her Fourth Child?
Jionni also claimed that he and “Nicole” were “doing great” and that they “became even stronger together” as they raised their “beautiful kids.”
And speaking of kids, the Sun reported another rumor in January 2024 that Snooki was “pregnant with her and Jionni’s fourth child.”
Jersey Shore fans noticed that Snooki appeared to be covering “her belly in loosely-fitted sweatshirts” when she posted photos with her daughter. The Sun added that Snooki was allegedly “cutting back on alcohol.” Still, she denied the pregnancy allegations at the beginning of the year, and there is no confirmation that Snooki is pregnant again in June 2024.
Snooki Defends Husband’s Cheating Allegations
When the Ashley Madison hack happened years ago, Snooki blasted the trolls on Instagram. She confirmed that her publicist warned her there would be a “story” going around that Jionni had “allegedly” become a subscriber, and Snooki claimed that she “laughed” about it.
Snooki added that “it couldn’t be any further from the truth,” and she described her husband as a “stand-up guy” who “loves his family more than anything.” But shockingly, Snooki didn’t claim that Jionni would never cheat.
She wrote, “Honestly, if he wanted to cheat,” that Jionni would just “go out and do it.” Snooki said that Jionni didn’t have to “sign up on a website and pay for it,” and despite years of rumors and allegations about their marriage, Snooki and Jionni have never officially called it quits.
