Did JWoww Break Up With 24? A Timeline of Their On-Again, Off-Again Relationship
Jaws collectively dropped to the floor during the October 10 episode of Jersey Shore Family Vacation, when Jenni “JWoww” Farley’s boyfriend, Zack Carpinello (aka “24”) was seen on-camera groping Angelina Pivarnick in a Las Vegas nightclub. The drama has since exploded on the reunion series, leaving Angelina and JWoww in an all-out war.
But the most confusing part of this whole scandal is the status of JWoww and 24’s relationship. In the most recent episode, JWoww and her boyfriend are still together, but since the show was filmed months ago, fans are wondering if that’s still the case today.
Read on for timeline of the couple’s rollercoaster relationship and see if you can keep up for yourselves…

“He’s very handsome, by the way,” she said. “Jenni has been going through some s**t but I’ve never seen this girl more happy and more herself than this moment right now.”

September 2019: JWoww gushes about her sex life with 24
In an episode of Family Vacation that aired in early September, the reality star gushed that her boyfriend is a “f**king monster in bed.”
“I never in a million years thought I would be dating someone younger than me,” she admitted. “We’re completely different — not a tattoo, nothing. Total white boy, polo-khaki-wearing. Not my style at all. But then he turns into this f**king monster in bed. I was like, ‘Are you an escort? What’s going on?’ It wasn’t normal. I had to look up positions and stuff. He just really makes my heart feel something, besides being dead inside. It feels good.”
That same episode, her other co-stars questioned if the mother of two was ready to be in a relationship so soon after her divorce. “She needs to travel the world, be single, go enjoy life,” Ronnie Ortiz-Magro said. “I just want to make sure that he has the right intentions and that she’s not rushing it.”

October 19, 2019: JWoww and 24 are spotted back together
Less than a week after their split, the couple was spotted at Universal Studios in Orlando. A source told TMZ that they are trying to work things out, though they haven’t publicly confirmed the status of their relationship.
October 24, 2019: JWoww accuses Angelina of kissing 24 in Jersey Shore episode
“I’m not the one kissing other men,” JWoww said in the episode, to which Angelina replied, “I would never kiss another man. I don’t even think your man’s hot.”
Let’s remember this clip was filmed months before JWoww ever saw the actual footage of her boyfriend groping Angelina in the club. He seemingly told her that Angelina kissed him, which is quite the exaggeration based on the footage. At this time, Jenni is merely defending her man.
Today: The couple’s status is currently unknown.
JWoww and 24 still haven’t come forward to confirm whether or not they are in a relationship, but given that they’ve been spotted publicly after the disastrous episode aired, it seems as though 24 might have apologized enough to make his way back into her heart.
