Samantha “Sammi Sweetheart” Giancola recently reunited with her now-famous MTV Jersey Shore co-stars for the current season of Jersey Shore: Family Vacation.
The Hazlet, New Jersey native attended William Paterson University and was a midfielder on the women’s soccer team before making her reality TV debut with Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi, Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino, and Jennifer “JWoww” Farley, among others.
During the first season of Jersey Shore, Giancola became involved romantically with castmate and Bronx native Ronnie Ortiz-Magro. Their on-and-off relationship — which was well documented on the show — started in 2009 and ended in 2016.
Since then, Ortiz-Magro became a father and is now living in Miami with his 5-year-old daughter, Ariana Sky, for whom he has full custody.
While Ortiz-Magro is adjusting to being a full-time single dad, Giancola is enjoying her summer at the shore in a string bikini with her boyfriend, Justin May, as seen below at Tice Shoal (in Bayville).
Giancola’s fans are going wild over the photos. More than one called her a “natural beauty” (insinuating that her Jersey Shore castmates have undergone “too much plastic surgery”).
Others are noting that Giancola “definitely has a type.” As seen below, her boyfriend is tan, muscular, wears tight t-shirts and keeps his hair well-coifed, just like Ortiz-Magro (and the other Jersey Shore stars).
Jersey Shore: Family Vacation airs Thursdays at 8 pm ET on MTV.
