Little meatballs! Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi may not have been the best employee in Shore Store history, but there’s at least one job she’s incredible at: motherhood.
The Jersey Shore: Family Vacation star and her husband, Jionni LaValle, are the parents of three adorable kids: Lorenzo (born in August 2012), Giovanna (born in September 2014) and Angelo (born in May 2019).

The Shore Thing author explained that she plans to reveal the truth to the kids once they’re well into their teenage years. “They’ll kind of get it [then],” the reality star joked. “Like, ‘Listen, Mommy had some crazy years before she was a mommy.

He’s just like, ‘Mom, you’re a mess. Mom, you’re embarrassing.’ And I’m like, ‘Alright, whatever.’”
The Dancing With the Stars alum and LaValle tied the knot in November 2014 after getting engaged two years earlier. Though Polizzi’s Jersey Shore
