How Many Children Does Nicole Snooki Have? Know All About Lorenzo, Giovanna And Angelo

Reality TV's favourite star, Nicole Polizzi, better known as 'Snooki' from Jersey Shore, is undergoing a tough chapter, healthwise. The 38-year-old recently shared with her fans that she has been diagnosed with stage one adenocarcinoma, a cervical cancer. While it was definitely not the news she was hoping for, she thanked god that her cancer was diagnosed at an early stage, making it curable.

With her recent health update, fans and colleagues have rallied around the mom of three. As the attention has shifted to her worried family, here's everything to know about Snooki's kids, Lorenzo, Giovanna, and Angelo, whom she shares with her husband, Jionni LaValle.

Building a close-knit family with Jionni LaVelle

Snooki is the proud mother of three. It was during her stint in Season 3 of Jersey Shore that she started dating her now-husband, Jionni LaVelle, and in November 2014, the pair got married in a Great Gatsby-style wedding bash in New Jersey. Over the years, the couple welcomed three kids, two sons and a daughter who is basically her twin. She has spoken about motherhood in old interviews, revealing how being a mother completely changed her life. Snooki and LaVelle welcomed their first child in 2012, and the MTV star realised what it meant to have one's own family.

Meet Snooki's oldest child, Lorenzo Dominic

Nicole Snooki became a mom for the first time in 2012 when she gave birth to her eldest son, Lorenzo Dominic. The Jersey Shore fame has previously mentioned that becoming pregnant with her first child officially marked the end of her party-girl era. While she dearly loves all her children, Lorenzo holds a special place in Snooki's heart.

Lorenzo Dominic was born on August 26, 2012, at Saint Barnabas Medical Center in Livingston, New Jersey. His middle name honours Snooki’s late uncle, Dominic. Just days after his birth, the reality TV star told PEOPLE that having him filled her heart with an entirely different kind of love. Now 13, Lorenzo is passionate about wrestling and baseball, a passion that runs in his dad's family. Snooki is often seen cheering for her little "champ" from the sidelines.

Snooki's middle child, Marie LaValle, is her only daughter

Two years after welcoming Lorenzo, Snooki and LaVelle had their second child, a daughter, Giovanna Marie LaVelle, on September 26, 2014, just months before they tied the knot that year. There's a reason that fans call the little one a photocopy of her mom. Just like Snooki, Giovanna loves cheerleading and is passionate about fashion. In 2023, she even walked in the Rookie USA Fashion Show during New York Fashion Week.

At just 11 years old, Giovanna is obsessed with skincare and beauty, and loves to stroll through the aisles at Sephora. She is also best friends with Snooki's Jersey Shore bestie, Jenni 'JWoww' Farley, and they hang out every other day. 

Who is Snooki's youngest child, Angelo James?

Six-year-old Angelo is the baby of Snooki and LaVelle's family, and the eye candy of his elder brother and sister. Born on May 30, 2019, Angelo James is nicknamed "squishy" by his mom, and that's enough to explain how deeply the little one is adored and cherished in the family.

When Snooki was pregnant with Angelo, her pregnancy journey was partially documented on Jersey Shore: Family Vacation. Following Angelo's arrival, Snooki shared with PEOPLE that her other two children quickly adapted to being older siblings. They soon began to see their baby brother as their own child. The reality star shared that she feared how the other two would react, but was pleasantly surprised by their reaction. She shared:

“I was definitely worried about [them meeting] the baby because I didn’t want them to get upset or jealous. But they did amazing and are super excited to take care of ‘their baby.’"
