Jenni ‘JWoww’ Farley Reveals She Felt ‘Huge’ Pressure Introducing New BF Zack to ‘Jersey Shore’ Family
First impressions! Jenni “JWoww” Farley is still going strong with her new boyfriend, Zack Clayton Carpinello, and she revealed that he’s already met almost everyone in the Jersey Shore squad. In a candid new interview published on Friday, July 12, the reality star admitted she felt “huge” pressure introducing the wrestler to her castmates.
Luckily, Jenni, 33, said that her younger beau, 24, has the stamp of approval from her TV family, even though he hasn’t met Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi in person yet. “They have FaceTimed. I want them to meet next week,” the MTV alum told UsWeekly, while Snooki sweetly added, “I already approve!” Jenni’s castmates met the wrestler when he came with her to Vegas, but Snooki was pregnant with baby No. 3 at the time, so she wasn’t able to make an appearance in Sin City.
On the bright side, everyone seemed open to giving Zach a chance. “My family is like, ‘We’ll just go with it.’ This [family], I’m like, ‘You don’t understand!’” Paul “DJ Pauly D” DelVecchio joked how Jenni had to “prep” her beau for the ordeal. Clearly, the Jersey Shore cast has Jenni’s back to the fullest, as the guys explained how they just want to make sure he’s keeping a smile on her face. “When someone’s not happy, then we hate that person,” Vinny Guadagnino spilled.
Back in April, In Touch confirmed that Zach and JWoww were dating after the brunette beauty admitted she was seeing someone new on Snooki’s live podcast. The reality star filed for divorce from her husband, Roger Mathews, after three years of marriage in September 2018 and the exes share two children together daughter Meilani, 4, and son Greyson, 3. During the new interview, JWoww explained how Zach “is kind of a family friend, so he already knew” her kids.
JWoww’s cast members then quipped about their age difference. “He was actually Greyson’s friend in school,” Vinny said, while Ronnie-Ortiz Magro chimed in, “He’d go to the same daycare.” JWoww laughed off their jokes about her new boyfriend and said she gets it “all day!”
