Zack and Jenni were broken up for a while 

In October 2019, Farley finally witnessed Carpinello getting inappropriately close to her roommate, Angelina Pivarnick. Despite warnings from the rest of the Jersey Shore cast, Farley didn’t realize how disrespectful Carpinello had been until the episode aired. Seeing this footage caused a rift in Farley’s relationship with Pivarnick and Carpinello, who she ultimately broke up with for a while. 

After seeing how Carpinello acted with Pivarnick, Farley expressed how hurt she was in an Instagram post. She felt betrayed by “someone [she] called a friend and by someone who stated they loved [her].” Though Farley is still separated from Carpinello in the current season of Family Vacation, the couple is back together presently and seem relatively happy. 

Zack Carpinello celebrated ‘JWoww’ on Mother’s Day

Carpinello spent Mother’s Day with the mother of two. He shared a photo of Farley with her children, Meilani and Greyson, to his Instagram with the caption: “I’m proud to spend Mother’s Day with these 3 (We had a paint project before this picture and Greyson got in a fight with the brush).”

Farley commented on the post with “I love you” and a blue heart emoji. According to posts on each of their social media accounts, the two had been doing better long before that. In April, Carpinello commented jokingly on a post that Farley captioned: “Big things over here… put makeup on and showered.” Carpinello wrote: “You are beautiful, gorgeous and amazing. But you didn’t shower.” A few days later, Farley shared a video of Carpinello helping to repaint her daughter’s bedroom, further driving home that the two seem to be happy in their relationship. 

What about ‘JWoww’ and Pauly D?

This season of Jersey Shore: Family Vacation, fans learned that Farley tried to hook up with her roommate Pauly DelVecchio shortly after she filed for divorce from her husband Roger Mathews. In the episode, it was revealed that DelVecchio denied Farley, who went home with him after her birthday dinner. 

“[But] remember that time we were in New York City?” Farley said to Pivarnick in the episode. “He shut the door on me. Me and Pauly had a nice dinner together that night. And then we went home together. And he shut the door on me.” In the aftermath, the two revealed that they both had feelings for each other — but the opportunity to start a relationship just hasn’t presented itself yet.

DelVecchio expressed wanting to be with Farley in the past but was never sure about when to make a move. “Obviously, I wanted to [hook up with Jenni], but I didn’t know if I was supposed to cross that line or not,” DelVecchio said of the night he and Farley spent in New York. “And then I slept on it and dude swooped in,” he added, referring to Carpinello.

Regardless of what cameras captured this season, Farley is back with Carpinello and seemingly happy.
