    The latest episode of Jersey Shore: Family Vacation, titled “Eggcellent”, aired on July 3, 2025. In this episode, the cast returned home from their Florida vacation, settling back into their routines while reflecting on the trip. A major moment came when Snooki opened up to the group about speaking with her biological mother — something most of them didn’t know about.

    While talking to Angelina, Snooki revealed that she recently spoke to her birth mother. Angelina admitted she had no idea,

    “I don’t want to pry, but I wanted to ask you,” she said.

    Snooki said she didn’t tell anyone earlier because Angelina was focusing on herself and taking therapy. The group was surprised when Snooki shared that her birth mom had first reached out to her adoptive parents.

    Snooki talked about getting a message from her birth mom saying she had always loved her. In an old clip, Snooki was shown crying while reading it. She said her birth mom asked if she was angry, and Snooki told her she wasn’t — she was happy with her life and her kids. The group raised their glasses to show support.

    Back home, each cast member returned to their routines while reflecting on the trip in Jersey Shore: Family Vacation. Deena told her husband that it was one of the “best trips” they had. At Jenni’s house, she spoke to her husband Roger about trying chicken during the trip. When Roger asked if she liked it, Jenni replied that she “threw up.”

    Their light-hearted exchange captured the return to normal life after a trip full of bonding and emotional moments. Mike also seemed happy with how the trip went. He described it in his confessional as all “positive vibes” and shared that the group had come back stronger. Meanwhile, Angelina had her own reflections.

    She returned to her house and said her ex had finally moved out, calling it a “big transition.” Referring to the surprise gift from the others,

    “The girls made me a beautiful family tree. So sweet that they did that for me,” she said.

    Angelina added that living alone was something new for her, but she was hopeful. She mentioned that if she continued working on herself, she believed she would be okay.
