Why Isn’t Nikki Hall on ‘Jersey Shore’?

It is unclear exactly why the MTV personality has not yet appeared in an episode during the series’ seventh season. Eagle-eyed fans were quick to notice Nikki’s absence from the sixth season of the reality series, which premiered in January 2023.

“Where is Nikki from #JerseyShoreFamilyVacation, I have yet to see her on any episode and that is NOT sitting well with me,” one fan wrote on Twitter, while another added, “Did Nikki and Pauly break up? She’s disappeared…”

Nikki reportedly said in a TikTok Live that she decided to take a break from filming to protect her mental health. The Las Vegas resident said she received hateful comments online, which fans believe stemmed from a blowup with Angelina Pivarnick.

When Did Nikki Hall and Angelina Pivarnick Fight?

Nikki and Jersey Shore: Family Vacation star Angelina’s nasty fight played out during season 5, which premiered in November 2022.

While the cast was visiting San Diego, California and Nikki got caught in the crossfire of a fight between Vinny Guadagnino and Angelina over a social media post. After Angelina poured water on Vinny, which also landed on Nikki, she in turn poured water all over Angelina. Things escalated after Angelina threw a glass of red wine all over Pauly’s gal, who then poured an entire bottle of wine over Angelina’s head. 

How Did Nikki Hall and Pauly D Meet?

Nikki and Pauly met on his and Vinny’s reality dating show, Double Shot at Love. Though they decided not to pursue a relationship after the first season, they reconnected while filming the show’s second season, and claimed they were going to take things slow. However, in October 2020, fans noticed they were quarantining together in Las Vegas amid the coronavirus pandemic.
