Gym. Tan. Love.

Since 2009, we have seen the majority of the cast of Jersey Shore evolve from fist-pumping, bar-hopping 20-somethings to mature adults in long-term relationships. In fact, some of the gang has even forayed into parenthood, lovingly and devotedly raising what could be the next generation of shore-loving party-goers.

From Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi's long-term relationship with husband Jionni LaValle to Paul "DJ Pauly D" DelVecchio's low-key love with Nikki Hall, see the real-life loves of the cast of Jersey Shore.

She may have had a hard time finding the beach that one time, but once Snooki decided to settle down with her love, Jionni LaValle, it was game over for other juiceheads.

The two met while she was shooting season 3 of the hit MTV show, and while she wasn't into LaValle at first, she went from, "He'll do for tonight," to, "I want to marry you!" pretty quickly.

They've since welcomed three new meatballs together: sons Lorenzo Dominic, 11, and Angelo James, 4, as well as daughter Giovanna Marie, 9. They have been married since 2014.

Long before we knew him (and his six-pack) as "The Situation," Lauren Pesce had already stolen Mike Sorrentino's heart. The two met back in 2005, but later broke up as he went on to start filming Jersey Shore in 2009.

They rekindled their romance when the show wrapped its initial run in 2013 and have been together since. Lauren stuck with her hubby throughout his legal troubles, including when he went to prison for tax evasion in 2019.

Prior to his going away, the two got married in a ceremony held in Pompton Plains, New Jersey, on Nov. 1, 2018. After he returned home, the Sorrentinos started their family and are now also parents to three kids: Romeo Reign, 2, Mia Bella, 1, and Luna Lucia, who joined the family in March.

Deena Nicole Cortese married her longtime love, Chris Buckner, in a ceremony held at Laurita Winery in New Egypt, New Jersey, in 2017.

The two got engaged during a weekend getaway in Mexico the year prior. "I always knew I would spend the rest of my life with Christopher .. But last night while we were walking on the Beach in Mexico he made it official!! We’re engaged!!!!! @cbuckner_,” Cortese wrote on Instagram.

They welcomed their first bundle of joy, C.J., into the world in January 2019, and followed up with a second son named Cameron in May 2021.

You never know when or where you're going to meet the love of your life. For Jenni Farley and fiancé Zack Clayton Carpinello, it was at her wedding to ex-husband Roger Mathews (well, kind of).

"One of my best friends didn't have a date to the wedding, so she brought her brother," JWoww revealed to E!.

The two didn't get together until after the Jersey Shore star divorced her husband in 2019, however. Carpinello later popped the question in a lavish presentation set at the top of the Empire State Building on JWoww's birthday in February 2021, and while the two don't have kids of their own, Carpinello seems to get along with Farley's daughter Meilani, 9, and son Greyson, 8, whom she shares with Mathews.

On April 1, the Jersey Shore star revealed that she and her boyfriend Justin May had gotten engaged the month prior.

"Life update: Fiancé 💍🥹♥️ 3.16.24 The easiest question I've ever answered.. happiest & luckiest girl in the world 😭 I'll love you forever, and then some 🤍 #Futurewifey #Engaged," she captioned a carousel of their special day.

The two began dating in 2021, following Giancola's split from ex-fiancé Christian Biscardi.

Pauly D was actively looking for love when he met Nikki Hall. The content creator appeared on A Double Shot at Love — a Y2k-esque competition show on which ladies were vying for the hearts of DelVecchio and his Jersey Shore costar Vinny Guadagnino.

Hall immediately clicked with the famous DJ, though they didn't begin dating until she came back for season 2 of the show in 2020, revealing they were an item at during the reunion.

The two quarantined together through the COVID-19 pandemic and have been going strong since.

Angelina Pivarnick has been pretty low-key about her relationship with fiancé Vinny Tortorella, so when he popped the question during an episode of Jersey Shore: Family Vacation (which aired in April 2023) everyone was surprised — even her castmates.

Last August, Pivarnick called the cops on her fiancé after an alleged domestic violence incident. She didn't press charges and it seems the two sorted it out, as Tortotella posted the above picture of the two of them looking happy this spring.
