Another Jersey Shore wedding is almost upon us!
Okay, so Mike Sorrentino and Lauren Pesce actually got married back in November, but on the show, they're just now entering the final preparation stage.
And -- as is pretty much always the case these days -- Ronnie Magro is dropping the ball and making things more complicated for everyone.
To be fair, however, Ronnie has a lot on his plate, and it seems he's once again being abused by Jen Harley, whose love language is punching.
It all unfolded in ugly fashion on Jerzday night's episode of Jersey Shore: Family Vacation.
Take a look:
1. A Simpler Time
Or was it? As far as we can tell, Ronnie and Jen's relationship has always been abusive -- a fact that's never prevented them from posing for "happy family" selfies.
2. Not-So-Fond Memories
To remind us of how long this has been going on, Thursday's episode of Jersey Shore took us back to late 2018, a time when Ronnie's lies about Jen were so apparent that his castmates' frustration was beginning to show.
3. A Bad Situation
When Ron nearly missed Mike Sorrentino's sentencing, he claimed that he had been jumped in a parking lot in Secaucus, New Jersey -- but last night, the truth came out.
4. A Happier Couple
As Mike and Lauren's wedding planning comes to a head, Ronnie is absent for several key events, which is a problem, as he's one of the best men, and there's a whole freakin' dance routine involved.
5. The Explainer
The reason, of course, is all the drama surrounding his relationship with Jen, a fact Ron finally makes clear in a series of Instagram posts.
6. Confirming the Obvious
"Sorry for lying to my friends and family, sometimes u love people so much your willing to lie and the hurt the people that love u the most to protect," Ron wrote.
