Snooki's 3 Kids: All About Lorenzo, Giovanna and Angelo

Jersey ShoreNicole “Snooki” Polizzi has retired from her entertainment days to focus on her role as a mother.

Snooki has three children with her husband Jionni LaValle: sons Lorenzo Dominic and Angelo James, and daughter Giovanna Marie.

In her first live interview after giving birth to her eldest child, Lorenza, in 2012, she said that while she was still open, she had happily abandoned her rebellious partying lifestyle in favor of a quiet home life.

“I’ve definitely been partying for three people my whole life,” Snooki told TODAY’s Savannah Guthrie. “I feel like I have a family now. Life has changed… I love it.”

The reality star keeps her children as far away from the show as possible. In September 2022, Snooki told PEOPLE that her kids won’t let them watch the show even when they’re older.

“Even if they’re 30, I mean, I don’t want you to watch that. It’s weird,” she said, adding, “I mean, even now my kids are 10 and 8 and they’re on TikTok and they’re seeing old clips and stuff, so they say, ‘Mom, what are you doing here?’ And I just say, ‘Mom is a paid actress.’ They made me do it.’ ”

Here’s everything you need to know about Snooki’s three children: Lorenzo Dominic, Giovanna Marie and Angelo James LaValle.

On August 26, 2012, Snooki gave birth to her first child, son Lorenzo Dominic, at Saint Barnabas Medical Center in Livingston, New Jersey.

“I am VERY IN LOVE with my son Lorenzo Dominic! I had my little man last night, a healthy 6 pounds! HE IS MY WORLD!” the Jersey Shore star announced on Xformerly known as Twitter.

Six days after welcoming their bundle of joy, Snooki and her then-fiance LaValle spoke with PEOPLE for an exclusive interview.

“It’s a different kind of love that I’ve never felt before,” Snooki, who spent an exhausting 24 hours trying, told PEOPLE. “When I got pregnant, everything changed,” she added. “The fun is long over. I am a new person.”

The couple said naming their son was easy, with his middle name honoring Snooki’s late uncle, Dominic. “We were going back and forth and I happened to think of Lorenzo,” LaValle told PEOPLE. “She loved it.”

Now 10 years old, Lorenzo wrestles and plays baseball. “Gotta shout out to my kid Lorenzo for killing it in wrestling! It’s in his blood, he’s my champ,” Snooki wrote on Instagram in February 2023.

Lorenzo even had a wrestling-themed birthday party in 2021, complete with WWE decor and a ring-shaped cake.

“Such a fun day celebrating my Lorenzo turning 9! So proud of you, my first child! And I can’t wait to see you kill him in the ring one day! 🎂,” Snooki captioned photos of the party.

In an August 2024 interview, Snooki told PEOPLE that as Lorenzo approaches his teenage years, he “definitely doesn’t want a mom anymore.”

“I miss him being so cuddly and wanting mommy like always,” she said. “There’s still moments where he’ll hug me or whatever, but he’s definitely growing into himself and starting to like girls and stuff like that. It makes me nervous, but at the same time, I’m so proud of him and seeing him grow and thrive in sports and everything, but I definitely miss the fact that Lorenzo is 4 years old and wants me.”

In 2014, Snooki and LaValle welcomed their second child, Giovanna Marie, at 4:28 a.m. on September 26.

“I am so happy to announce that this morning we welcomed our beautiful daughter, Giovanna Marie LaValle. 6.7 lbs, black hair and perfect,” she posted via X.

When Snooki heard she was having a baby girl, she joined forces with her costar and Jersey Shore best friend Jenni “JWoww” Farley to plan their daughters’ future friendships.

“They are—— better [get along]Farley told PEOPLE before giving birth to daughter Meilani Alexandra in July 2014. “They’re actually cousins. No option. You are sisters.”

“Me and Jenni see each other almost every day,” Snooki added. “I just feel like our kids are going to be best friends and hang out all the time. They will grow up and be like cousins. They’ll like each other, I hope.”

Luckily for Snooki and Farley, their goal seems to have been achieved as the two girls are BFFs. Farley told PEOPLE in August 2023 that Giovanna and Meilani have been playing together “since they were 2 months old.”

“When Snooki & JWoww finished, we did a play called Moms with attitudes. Our kids would see each other twice a week for two years,” Farley told PEOPLE exclusively at the film’s premiere Jersey Shore: Family Vacation. Snooki added, “They’re our little ones.”

In June 2023, Giovanna celebrated her first communion. Snooki took to Instagram to post some sweet snaps from the day.

As for her hobbies, Giovanna likes cheerleading and could have a future in modeling. In September 2023, during New York Fashion Week, she walked the runway at the 13th Annual Rookie USA Fashion Show.

She’s also developing her own sense of style, Snooki told PEOPLE in August 2024.

“She’s like a teenager now where she always wants to look nice and well-groomed and goes to Sephora for 100 creams,” she said. “I say, ‘You really don’t need that, you’re 10 years old.’ ”

On May 30, 2019, Snooki gave birth to her third child, a boy named Angelo James. According to her rep, the newborn arrived at 2:30 a.m. weighing 7 lbs., 8 oz.

“I am so thrilled to welcome baby Angela to our little family! He’s so cute and the spitting image of Lorenzo as a baby,” Snooki told PEOPLE. “Jionni and I can’t wait to see how outnumbered it is!”

Part of Snooka’s journey to her third pregnancy was documented on Jersey Shore: Family Vacation. During a 2018 episode, Snooki said she was disappointed when one pregnancy test came back negative.

“I’m not pregnant. I’m so annoyed,” she said. “I’m just old and I can’t fucking take it anymore.”

However, the same month the episode aired, Snooki and LaValle announced they were expecting on Instagram. The post featured a photo of Lorenzo and Giovanna holding a framed photo of Snooki’s sonogram. The caption read, “What I’m thankful for this Thanksgiving.”

In December, the LaValle family threw a small sex reveal party where Lorenzo (who was 6) hit a baseball filled with blue powder, signaling that Snooki was pregnant with a boy.

After Angelo’s arrival, Snooki shared with PEOPLE that her other two children quickly adjusted to being older siblings.

“I was definitely worried [them meeting] baby because I didn’t want them to get upset or jealous,” she said. “But they have been amazing and are very excited to look after ‘their baby’. ”

In May 2023, Snooki celebrated her son’s 4th birthday with a shark-themed party. The reality star posted pictures of all three children and her husband standing behind Angelo’s shark cake.

“MY ANGELO SQUISHY IS 4 YEARS OLD🥹 of course we threw a whale shark orca party 🐳🐋🦈 brb, she’s crying,” she wrote in the description.
