Jenni ‘JWoww' Farley and Zack Carpinello's Relationship Timeline
Jenni "JWoww" Farley and Zack Clayton Carpinello have had quite a special relationship ever since getting together in early 2019
The pair went public with their relationship in April 2019, following Farley's September 2018 split from Roger Mathews after three years of marriage. The reality star shares two children with Mathews, daughter Meilani and son Greyson.
Farley raved about her relationship with Carpinello just weeks before their brief breakup. "I never in a million years thought I would be dating someone younger than me," she said on the MTV reality show. "We're completely different. Not my style at all."
She also praised the athlete's bedroom performance: "He turns into this f***ing monster in bed. I was like, ‘Are you an escort? What's going on?' It wasn't normal. I had to look up positions and stuff."
The reality star confirmed in March 2021 that Carpinello proposed one month prior.
Ahead of the couple's 2026 nuptials, Farley exclusively told Us that the delay was a result of how much work goes into planning a wedding.
"I'm trying, then I'm not trying," she said in January 2023. "I really wanna do it out of the country, but then to do that you gotta kind of … rely on people abroad to do it."
Farley and Carpinello ultimately surprised friends and family with a secret wedding in June 2026.
