Jersey Shore: Family Vacation fans are not happy about Ronnie Ortiz Margo’s upcoming return to the show. Ronnie was one of the original roommates to return for the spin-off series in 2018. Best known for his toxic on-again-off-again relationship with co-star Sammi “Sweetheart” Giancola, most of Ronnie’s screen time throughout the Jersey Shore spin-off series has included drama within his more recent relationships, including his baby mama Jen Harley.

Over the years, Ronnie has found himself in trouble with the law on numerous occasions. In 2021, Ronnie stepped away from filming for Jersey Shore: Family Vacation after he was arrested for a domestic violence incident. The incident involved his now ex-fiancé Saffire Mattos. Since taking time away from the show to focus on himself, Ronnie has only made two brief cameo appearances, neither of which were with the entire cast.

Ronnie Doesn’t Deserve To Be On The Show After His Arrest

Over the Easter weekend, Ronnie was spotted filming with the cast for the first time in two years. The news of Ronnie’s potential return immediately angered Jersey Shore fans, as many don’t believe he deserves to return to the show following his last arrest. Reddit user edwinstone started a thread discussing all the reasons why he shouldn't be allowed back on Jersey Shore: Family Vacation.

One user wrote, “The amount of s**t he’s done to not only sam, but the cast and other girls just sickens me that mtv still allows him to have a platform.” With Ronnie’s history of being toxic and abusive to both his exes, as well as his costars, it's confusing why the network would continue to pay him to be on the show. While Ronnie claims to be living a better and healthier lifestyle, viewers still believe he shouldn't have a second chance.

It’s Not Fair To Sammi That Ronnie Is Returning

Just a few weeks before Ronnie was spotted filming for the show, Sammi announced her Jersey Shore: Family Vacation debut. Sammi initially turned down the opportunity for the spin-off to avoid any drama with Ronnie. Since he was no longer filming, Sammi felt like it was a good time to make her spin-off series debut.

Now, she might find herself filming with her toxic ex after all. MTV allowing Ronnie to return after Sammi finally felt comfortable enough to join is not fair to her as he was the main reason she did not want to be a part of the show in the first place. While it is unclear how permanent of a role Sammi will have on the show, it's been rumored that the two were under the same roof while filming.

Although Ronnie has been on the spin-off series since the start, Sammi is much more of a fan favorite compared to Ronnie. Over the years, Ronnie has gotten away with a lot of misbehaviors that ultimately should not have been accepted. Unfortunately, Ronnie’s return to Jersey Shore: Family Vacation will not be welcomed by fans. It's unclear if he is planning on returning full-time or not.
