“The only thing that upsets him — it’s not about himself, it’s about Lauren,” saidVinny Guadagnino. “He just cares about her. He’s like, ‘I’m good,’ but he cares about her being alone. But she’s doing good and she holds him down in there. They talk every day, she visits him every week.”

“We met each other when she was probably 19 and I was 22 years old,” he recalled. “We met in community college in math class. We went out together for about four years, and then onceJersey Shorestarted we decided to take a break throughout seasons 1-6. Once it was over, we eventually reconnected and have been together ever since, for over four years now.”
“She’s my best friend, my better half,” he added. “She makes me a better person. I’m so excited that she’s in my life.”
