AceShowbiz – Longtime “Jersey Shore” regular Nicole ‘Snooki‘ Polizzi quit the MTV series after a wedding day showdown with castmate Angelina Pivarnick.
The cringeworthy moment appeared on the “Jersey Shore Family Vacation” season finale, which aired in America on Thursday (June 18), after Snooki, JWoww and Deena Cortese made a series of jokes at the bride’s expense during a speech.
Angelina made it clear she was not happy with some of things the trio said.
In a straight-to-camera confessional, she said, “It’s the wrong f**king place. It’s the wrong time. You don’t do this at somebody’s wedding.”
Snooki appears to have made the decision to exit the reality show at the wedding after an encounter with Pivarnick, telling Deena, “I’m quitting, I think. I think this is it. This is not fun.”
In her confessional, Snooki said, “The fact that it has to end like this, for me, it really sucks.”
Snooki announced she was leaving the show in December (19) on her “It’s Happening with Snooki & Joey” podcast, telling “Jersey Shore” fans, “I love you so much, and don’t hate me for my decision… I am retiring from ‘Jersey Shore’. I am not coming back to ‘Jersey Shore’ for season four if there is one.”
“The main reason is really… I just can’t do it any more. Literally, leaving my kids to film it is really, really hard on me. I try and quit every single day. I quit every time we film because I just hate being away from the kids. I don’t like partying three days in a row. It’s just not my life any more. I want to be home with the kids. I don’t mind here and there going to a dinner or whatever, but it’s just really hard for me to leave the kids and film the show.”

Snooki also explained the show isn’t as much fun as it used to be, revealing it has become “so serious.”
“I don’t want that and I’m not leaving my kids days on end to film this show when that’s the result of it…,” she added. “I don’t like the person I’m being portrayed as. This is getting a little too much. At 32 years old and with three kids, if I’m doing a reality show I just want it to be fun and light-hearted and lately it’s not like that and the show is getting so dramatic.”
