🎶 Get crazy, get wild, let’s party, get loud 🎶 … it’s been almost 10 years since Jersey Shore ended and the cast sure has changed. From marriages to kids to booming businesses, these beach bums are all grown up. If you haven’t caught up with them lately on Jersey Shore: Family Vacation, here’s a look at what they’re all up to now!
Cast of Jersey Shore: Nicole Polizzi aka Snooki

Remember in season 1 of Jersey Shore when no one could say Snooki right? Now the world definitely knows that name. However, since she’s matured a ton, she prefers to go by Nicole now. Everyone remembers Snooki for her crazy antics but as she’s said before, she was only 21 when the show started.
Since then, Nicole starred on Snooki & JWoww with her bestie and Jersey Shore co-star, Jenni “JWoww” Farley. In 2013, she competed on Dancing With The Stars with newcomer Sasha Farber. Sadly, the pair was eliminated in week 7, despite their good judges’ scores. Nicole has also released several books including Confessions of a Guidette, Gorilla Beach, and Baby Bumps: From Party Girl to Proud Mama, and all the Messy Milestones Along the Way. Along with running the wine label Messy Mawmaw Wine, she owns The Snooki Shop, a clothing boutique with locations in Beacon, NY and Madison, NJ.
When Nicole’s not being a savvy businesswoman, she’s mom to her 3 kids (Lorenzo, Giovanna, and Angelo) with husband, Jionni LaValle.

Like her girl Snooki, it seems like JWoww has toned it down over the years. She’s now a mom to 2 kids, Meilani and Greyson, with her ex-husband Roger Matthews (who we all got to know on the show). From 2012-2015, Jenni starred on Snooki & JWoww. In 2016, she founded the celeb, beauty, and fashion news website Miss Domesticated. When Jenni’s not appearing on Jersey Shore: Family Vacation, you can find her at her clothing boutique Heavenly Flower in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
Cast of Jersey Shore: Mike Sorrentino aka The Situation

The Situation had a serious situation after leaving Jersey Shore. Immediately after the final season aired in 2012, he checked himself into rehab “to get control of a prescription medication problem.” Mike also had a bit of legal trouble, getting arrested in 2014 at a New Jersey tanning salon and on top of that, he was charged with tax fraud, allegedly not paying taxes on $8.9 million. Mike spent 8 months in jail in 2019.
But it seems like things are pretty good for him now. Mike married his former college girlfriend, Lauren Pesce, and together they’re parents to baby Romeo. He’s also on Jersey Show: Family Vacation and just like his fellow castmates, Mike’s a bit of an entrepreneur. From his online store to his vitamin business to hosting a podcast with his wife, it seems like there’s nothing The Situation can’t handle.
Cast of Jersey Shore: Paul DelVecchio aka Pauly D

Along with being on Jersey Shore: Family Vacation, Pauly D is still DJ’ing all around the country. Check out his site to see if he’s coming soon to a city near you! Pauly D had a daughter named Amabella in 2013, and in 2019 started appearing on Double Shot at Love with BFF Vinny Guadagnino. And guess what? Pauly D actually found love on the show! He’s been happily seeing contestant Nikki Hall for the past 2 years.
When Pauly D isn’t behind the turntable or back on our TV screens, he’s being the boss at Pauly D’s Italian Subs. You can find the sandwiches at locations around the US!

Vinny took after his pal Nicole and wound up writing a book after Jersey Shore. He co-wrote Control The Crazy: My Plan To Stop Stressing, Avoid Drama, and Maintain Inner Cool with Samantha Rose. While his bff Pauly D is madly in love after finding someone on their show Double Shot at Love, Vinny’s still single. Though he did date season 3 winner, Akielia Rucker. No word on if there will be a season 4 of the reality dating show but fingers crossed so Vinny has another shot!
Like most of his fellow Jersey Shore cast members, Vinny has reunited with them for their latest spinoff. But he’s got a lot of other things going on too. Vinny appeared as the Hammerhead on The Masked Dancer as well as runs his own online clothing store. Most recently, he’s lost 50 pounds on the Keto diet and even released a cookbook: The Keto Guido: Delicious Recipes to Get Healthy and Look Great.
Cast of Jersey Shore: Sammi Giancola aka Sammi Sweetheart

Out of all of the Jersey Shore girls, Sammi has probably spent the least amount of time in the public eye. She had a few guest spots on TV shows like Project Runway and Makeover Manor. After over 7 years of dating, Sammi and Ronnie officially broke up in 2016. Currently, she’s running Sweetheart Styles, her online boutique, as well as her brick and mortar store, Sweetheart Coast, which is located on, you guessed it, the Jersey Shore.
Cast of Jersey Shore: Ronnie Ortiz-Magro

Since the end of Jersey Shore, Ronnie has appeared on a slew of reality shows like Hollywood Medium with Tyler Henry, Celebrity Fear Factor, and Famously Single. After breaking up with Sammi, he began a relationship with Jen Harley and had a daughter named Ariana with her in 2018.
Things haven’t been so great for Ronnie the past few years. He’s been arrested a few times for domestic abuse and has even had a few rehab stints. While Ronnie was a cast member on Jersey Shore: Family Vacation, he left the show after 4 seasons to focus on his mental health. He recently got engaged to Saffire Matos.
Cast of Jersey Shore: Deena Nicole Cortese

Unlike everyone else on this list, Deena didn’t show up on Jersey Shore until the third season. But damn did she fit right in! In 2014, Deena and her now husband Chris Buckner joined the cast of VH1’s Couples Therapy to hash out their relationship issues. Things went well because the 2 are mom and dad to CJ and Cameron. Deena joined her besties Snooki and JWoww (she was a bridesmaid at both their weddings!) on Jersey Shore: Family Vacation. She runs the online shop Christopher John (named after her older son.)
Cast of Jersey Shore: Angelina Pivarnick

Things haven’t always been easy at the shore house with Angelina. She was evicted in season 1 and then forced to leave again in season 2 of the original series. But surprisingly Angelina is on Jersey Shore: Family Vacation. Of course, there’s still drama. At her 2019 wedding (which was featured on the show), Nicole, Jenni, and Deena gave a speech that didn’t go over too well. But it seems like all the Jersey Shore girls are back on speaking terms. Sadly, Angelina and her husband Chris divorced. When she’s not on TV, she’s a registered EMT.
