Nicole “Snooki” Polizzidropped bombshell news on Friday: she will not be returning toJersey Shore: Family Vacation.
“I love you so much, and don’t hate me for my decision,” she said. “I am retiring fromJersey Shore. I am not coming back toJersey Shorefor season 4 if there is one.”
“The main reason is really … I just can’t do it anymore. Literally, leaving my kids to film it is really, really hard on me,” Polizzi — who shares daughterGiovanna Marie, 5, and sonsLorenzo Dominic, 7 andAngelo James, 6 months, with husbandJionni LaValle— went on to explain.
“I try and quit every single day,” she admitted. “I quit every time we film because I just hate being away from the kids. I don’t like partying three days in a row. It’s just not my life anymore. I want to be home with the kids. I don’t mind here and there going to a dinner or whatever, but it’s just really hard for me to leave the kids and film the show.”

Continuing, she explained that lately, the reality series has “been very drama” and “so serious.”
“For me, I don’t want that and I’m not leaving my kids days on end to film this show when that’s the result of it,” she said. “I just don’t like the turnout of it and I don’t like the person I’m being portrayed as. This is getting a little too much. At 32 years old and with three kids, if I’m doing a reality show I just want it to be fun and light-hearted, and lately it’s not like that and the show is getting so dramatic.”
Polizzi also revealed that she and her children have been receiving “death threats,” making her experience “just a lot and not something I signed up for with this show.”
