Jersey Shore star Jenni "JWoww" Farley and her fiancé Zack Clayton Carpinello may be tying the knot sooner than fans expected. On February 27, 2021, the couple got engaged in Manhattan, and Jenni shared photos from the proposal on her Instagram account about a week later. Her fiancé popped the question in a romantic scene on top of the Empire State Building overlooking the New York City skyline. However, a few months later, the reality TV star revealed that she was not in any rush to get to the altar and was instead enjoying her engaged life. The Covid-19 pandemic also played a part in why Jenni was putting off wedding planning as she didn't want to have a guest limit or any mask mandates during her special day.
Jenni was previously married to Roger Mathews, whom she began dating in 2010. The couple shares daughter Meilani Alexandra Mathews, 7, and son Greyson Valor Mathews, 5. However, the Jersey Shore: Family Vacation star filed for divorce in 2018, and while they initially tried to work things out, they ultimately went through with their separation. About a year later, Jenni began dating Zack, a professional wrestler about nine years younger than his fiancé. At the time the two began dating, the wrestler was just 24 years old, so Jenni's Jersey Shore costars decided to nickname Zack "24."
While the two initially were enjoying their engaged life, Jenni revealed that she's finally ready to start planning for their big day. In an interview with E! News, the star revealed that as Covid regulations and restrictions are being lifted, she's excited to start thinking about her wedding day. "We're actually finally discussing it," Jenni revealed. "because we feel that COVID has finally shifted, we're doing mask mandates and we're getting rid of a lot of quarantining." While the star's first wedding took place in New Jersey, she has more extravagant plans this time around.
"My dream wedding would be in another country so I'm hoping we can make that happen," the star confessed. Jenni, along with costars Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi and Deena Cortese, infamously caused a lot of drama at castmate Angelina Pivarnick's wedding back in 2019. After a not-so-well-received bridesmaids' speech, the three really upset guests when they took a shot at Angelina's hometown of Staten Island. Before the speeches aired during a Jersey Shore: Family Vacation episode, they were leaked online. Recently it was reported that Angelina was the one to leak the audio as a way to make her costars look bad.
Hopefully, Jenni's upcoming wedding will go much smoother, and she'll have no angry guests or messy bridesmaid speeches. While the star hasn't specified where she wants her wedding to take place, Italy would be fitting, and it would be very reminiscent of the unforgettable fourth season of Jersey Shore that took place there. While she hasn't said much else about her wedding day, fans will surely get all the inside details right from the source once the big day comes. However, Jenni might want to be careful when it comes to picking bridesmaids, and she should certainly go over their speeches ahead of time.
