Reality star Angelina Pivarnick is most known for starring in Jersey Shore: Family Vacation. As fans have gotten to know her since the original Jersey Shore series back in 2009, viewers are wondering about her dating life.

With that said, is Angelina engaged? And if so, who is she engaged to? Has she been married before? Here are all of the details about the popular reality TV star and her love life.

Angelina is engaged to her fiancé Vinny Tortorella, who she has publicly been dating since early 2023. He popped the question on an episode of Jersey Shore: Family Vacation.

In front of the entire cast of the show, Vinny asked Angelina to marry him, and she said "yes." During the proposal, he said, "A lot of things in life aren't guaranteed, but something that I've learned since I met you is loving you is gonna be guaranteed for the rest of my life."

He also said, "I want to grow old with you, I want to experience everything with you. I wouldn't want to experience it with anyone else — together, as one."

But hold on to your spray tans, folks! Despite the fairy tale beginning, it seems like this love story might be taking a detour to Splitsville. Want the juicy details? Keep reading to catch up on their February 2024 social media battle and all the drama that's got everyone talking.

In August 2023, a police report showed that Angelina called emergency services on Vinny, according to Page Six. The allegations included domestic violence, but she didn't press any charges against him at the time.

"I can confirm that Angelina did, in fact, call the police to her home. After speaking with the officers, Angelina decided not to file charges," her attorney explained to the outlet. "This matter is now closed. Moving forward, Angelina would ask for privacy as it pertains to her personal life."

Several months later, during an interview with In Touch at iHeartRadio's Jingle Ball on December 8, Angelina shared her doubts about marrying Vinny due to frequent arguments.

While discussing her sick dog Peanut, she mentioned Vinny's lack of assistance in caring for the pup: "I'm not a mother of human children. But I want human babies," Angelina continued. "But, I'm not going to have one with somebody that always fights with me over bulls--t."

The tension between the engaged couple has now spilled over onto social media, with Angelina and Vinny engaging in a public spat on Instagram in early February 2024. Amidst the exchanges, Angelina made claims about her fiancé's current living situation, further fueling speculation about the state of their relationship.

"Don't always believe what u see on social media. It's clout chasers trying to stay relevant!!!" Angelina posted on her Instagram Story, according to TikTok creator Ashley Hawat (@ashleyhawat). "If I'm [not] following someone, obviously, it's because I don't want to, and that person isn't who they claim to be. Please read that again!"

Further elaborating, Angelina detailed her recent ordeal, revealing that following a recent root canal, she pleaded for company but was left alone as her fiancé prioritized showcasing his gym session on Instagram and promoting a pre-workout supplement to attract potential sponsorships.

Additionally, Angelina alleged that Vinny demanded she post photos of them on Instagram and tag him, threatening repercussions if she refused. Seeing through his tactics, she accused him of regularly posting random pictures of them solely to boost his follower count.

"Be smart ppl !!! Don't follow a person that could do that to anyone," she added. "Kid lives out of his car, lol. Oh wait, real-life nomad, living in his car, his dad's [house], and whoever else he can manipulate."

In response, Vinny fired back, suggesting that issues existed long before he entered the picture. Urging against blind belief in rumors, he acknowledged the complexities of their relationship.

"This relationship is exhausting, sad, and confusing. Then sprinkle in some good times," he wrote. "I wouldn't wish the daily treatment I receive on my worst enemy. Those close to our circle know exactly wtf I'm talking about."

Vinny persisted, challenging the notion that he's a clout chaser. "[Can] someone DM me what I've gained?" he asked before claiming he's the victim of "a tarnished reputation, heartache, and constant ridicule."

"Anyone [who] knows me outside this relationship bubble I'm in, knows I'm a quiet, reserved, and easygoing guy," he added. "Maybe I'll try to finally start standing up for myself even after being told over and over again that no one will ever believe me since 'I have no following.' Yeah, I'm the [narcissist], though."

"And since I'm feeling some type of way after such a mean low blow directed at me," he continued, "Yeah, I live out of my car whenever I'm kicked or locked out of the house I reside at. (Mind you, it's pretty much every other week). The first few times, I was left with nothing and not allowed access to any of my belongings."

Vinny shared that he's since learned to keep all his essentials in his truck. "Sorry, I don't wanna be forced to buy tank tops, socks, and underwear every time," he said. "Also, yes, I stay at my dad's too. But sometimes I'm embarrassed to admit the SAME OLD BS happened again, and I'm locked out."

He expressed gratitude for having a supportive father who stands by him, even as he continues to repeat the same misguided actions, all in the hope of eventual change.
