Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi, 32, made a scary decision, and now her future remains up in the air. The MTV icon quit Jersey Shore in a surprise announcement on the Dec. 6 episode of her podcast, after starring on the original show between 2009-2012 and returning for the revival show Jersey Shore: Family Vacation between 2018-2019. “Snooki will be really busy just being a mom and seeing what comes next for her now that she’s done with Jersey Shore,” a source close to the show EXCLUSIVELY tells HollywoodLife. However, that uncertainty doesn’t translate to fear. Snooki’s realigned goals weren’t the only reasons she jumped the Jersey Shore ship, however, according to another source who previously spoke with HollywoodLife EXCLUSIVELY. “Nicole felt the show was heading in a direction that she wasn’t happy with so she left the show…She did not like how everything played out after Angelina’s wedding and feels she’s being painted unfairly,” the source had revealed. Angelina’s nuptials and wedding reception with Chris Larangeira were filmed for MTV on Nov. 20, a third insider had previously told HollywoodLife, and a fourth source revealed that “Angelina hasn’t forgiven JWoww, Snooki or Deena for their bridesmaids speech and really has no plans to.”But aside from the TV and real life drama, Snooki revealed the No. 1 reason she decided it was time to retire from Jersey Shore.
