It seems like everywhere Angelina returned for the show's spin-off, Jersey Shore Family Vacation, when it premiered in 2018, and has remained on ever since.

Angelina had a contemptuous relationship with her roommates, but she's been fully welcomed back into the mix on the Family Vacation spin-off. During her first season, Angelina, who referred to herself as "the Kim Kardashian of Staten Island," was called a "dirty little hamster" by Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino, a nickname that has stuck around for Angelina. She also famously entered the shore house with her belongings packed in trash bags, which gave her roommates more ammo to use against her. Ultimately, after clashing with her roommates one too many times, Angelina quit and didn't return for season 3.

Farrah's Sounding Off About Vinny

Farrah Shared DMs From Vinny

Angelina has had several love interests during her time on reality TV, the most recent being Vinny Tortorella, whom she was engaged to from 2022 through 2025. Angelina and Vinny originally met on Instagram, and before long, Vinny was appearing on Jersey Shore Family Vacation with Angelina. Since they split, however, another MTV reality star has gotten into the mix.

Farrah Abraham, the notorious star of 16 And Pregnant and later, Teen Mom, claimed that Vinny had recently slid into her DMS—and she wasn't afraid to spill all the tea.

Farrah, a veteran reality star in her own right, grew up on MTV cameras after her teen pregnancy was featured on 16 And Pregnant. Farrah remained part of the franchise through Teen Mom, but left in 2017 after promoting her OnlyFans site. Farrah is no stranger to scandal, as she also infamously starred in a celebrity sex tape back in 2013, which also ruffled the network's feathers. She's since appeared on numerous reality shows like Couples Therapy, Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars Family Edition, and Celebrity Big Brother UK.

Farrah told OK! Magazine that after one of her comedy shows at Spearmint Rhino Gentlemen’s Club in New York City, Vinny, who attended the show and shared a photo of him and Farrah to his Instagram, direct messaged Farrah and asked her on a date. According to Farrah, she didn't know who Vinny was, and she put him on blast to prove that he's only after fame. Farrah is the last person to mess with, which Vinny is probably learning very quickly, as Farrah has no problem calling people out and making headlines while she does it.

Why Angelina & Vinny Broke Up

Angelina & Vinny Had A Tumultuous Relationship

Angelina and Vinny (whom the cast referred to as Vinny 2.0 to distinguish him from Jersey Shore's Vinny Guadagnino) appeared on Jersey Shore Family Vacation together, starting with his introduction to the group during season 6. Angelina was excited to introduce her new man to her friends, who had stuck with her during her marriage and subsequent divorce from first husband Chris Larangeira in 2022.

Angelina felt like she'd finally found the one in Vinny 2.0.

It wasn't meant to be, as Angelina and Vinny fought over cheating allegations throughout their relationship. They faced more serious troubles as well. In August 2023, Angelina called the police on Vinny after an altercation at his home. Angelina declined to press charges, and the couple remained together. By 2025, both sides accused the other of cheating, and the pair ultimately called off their engagement.

Is Farrah Just Trying To Cause Trouble?

Farrah Is Known For Being Outspoken

If there's one thing we can count on Farrah for, it's calling out bad behavior. Although she did pose for a photo with Vinny at her NYC comedy show, she later claimed to not know who he was. Farrah showed OK! Magazine direct messages she'd received from Vinny following her show in which Vinny asked her on a date.

"If you have some free time, let's grab dinner and see a movie. Throw it back to an old school date."

Farrah claimed she responded politely that she didn't live in NYC, so she declined Vinny's request. At this point in the DM conversation, Vinny dropped that he would prefer to fly out to Farrah because "Lord knows I kinda need a vacation from my ex." Farrah responded that she hoped he gets over his ex "who ever that is," to which Vinny revealed he'd dated Angelina from Jersey Shore. Farrah must have been able to sense that Vinny was clout-chasing, because she put him on blast in the OK! Magazine article, saying that she's not interested in Vinny whatsoever.

"I didn't even know who he was. I have no interest in him and frankly am weirded out now knowing he came out to my event just to get a pic and try to hit on me... Move on, Vinny, and stop trying to get back at your ex Angelina."

Farrah felt that Vinny's messages to her were an obvious attempt to find fame again by dating another reality star. Although Farrah did comment on Vinny's photo of the two of them on Instagram, writing, "Thanks Handsome for droppin in," she claimed she didn't know who he was or that he'd dated Angelina before. Honestly, by sharing Vinny's messages with the press, Farrah is having Angelina's back because it's clear that Vinny may not have had the purest of intentions while dating Angelina.

A New Season Of Jersey Shore Family Vacation's On The Horizon

Jersey Shore Family Vacation Season 8 Premieres Soon

Whether the continuing fallout from Angelina and Vinny's split is explored on Jersey Shore Family Vacation season 8 remains to be seen, but since the couple only broke up in January, it's likely to be discussed on the show. Angelina revealed that she'd caught Vinny cheating while filming the season. It will be interesting to hear whether Angelina has any thoughts on her ex's desperate attempt to get back into the limelight by DMing Farrah and asking her on a date.

If anyone knows Angelina, who is as outspoken and fiery as Farrah, she'll most likely have some thoughts.

The rest of the Jersey Shore crew—Mike, Vinny, DJ Pauly D, Jenni "J-Woww" Farley, Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi, Deena Cortese, Ronnie Ortiz, and Sammi "Sweetheart" Giancola—are all scheduled to return to the spin-off for its latest season. Even though they've all grown up since their days of fist-pumping at Karma, they still have plenty of drama and excitement to entertain audiences. Jersey Shore is celebrating 15 years since the original premiere, and the fact that the show is still going strong is a testament to how beloved the show and the cast are to fans.

Jersey Shore Family Vacation season 8 premieres May 29 on MTV.
