‘Jersey Shore’: Did Jenni ‘JWoww’ Farley Cheat on Tom With Roger Mathews During Season 1?
Jersey Shore fans will recall Jenni “JWoww” Farley and DJ Pauly DelVecchio hooking up early on in season 1. In doing so, Farley cheated on her boyfriend at the time, Tom Lippolis.
Farley allegedly knew her future husband, Roger Mathews, during season 1, too. Did Farley also hook up with Roger Mathews before officially ending things with Lippolis?
Jenni went into ‘Jersey Shore’ with a boyfriend
When Jersey Shore began, Farley was one of the only people to enter the house in a relationship — aside from Angelina Pivarnick. At the time, Farley was dating Lippolis, who was both her boyfriend and her business manager. Lippolis made a few appearances on the MTV series before he and Farley ended their relationship.

Regardless of her relationship with Lippolis, Farley quickly made it known she had an interest in DelVecchio. “JWoww has a boyfriend, but she’s the type of girl that doesn’t care,” DelVecchio said to cameras. “She wants to have fun and have a boyfriend; I’ll be that guy, I don’t care.” The two hooked up on a few occasions in Seaside Heights night clubs, with MTV cameras there to capture everything.
After Farley let Lippolis know what happened, the two broke up on camera. As a result, Lippolis left Farley’s dogs unattended, so she and her new best friend Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi had to go and rescue them. Farley presumably enjoyed the rest of her summer single in Seaside Heights.
Jenni and Tom were in a toxic relationship
Some viewers were disappointed with Farley’s actions, but they become more understandable once fans discovered the kind of relationship Farley was in. “He had control over my life,” Farley said on an episode of Jersey Shore After Hours (via Life and Style Magazine). “I felt like I created that monster. His insecurities got the best of him. In Long Island, he cut all my friends away from me, my family. I couldn’t even go out with my girlfriends to have a drink. He had to be there.” The physical and emotional abuse Farley suffered likely had a lot of influence on her actions prior to her and Lippolis’ breakup.

Cameras captured a lot during season 1 of Jersey Shore, but everything that was filmed didn’t necessarily air on television. For example, Farley allegedly knew her future husband during the first season of the reality series. “Roger was around since the first season,” a former field and story producer shared on Reddit. “Jenni actually met him during season 1, but I don’t think it was on the show.” The timing of when Farley met Mathews is unclear. Was it before her breakup with Lippolis, or soon after? Whether or not the two had any kind of physical relationship is also unknown.
The former producer also revealed that Farley hooked up with Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino while filming Jersey Shore. “She hooked up with Mike (they made out) very early on,” they wrote. Again, whether this was within the time frame Farley was dating Lippolis is unknown. According to this producer, “a lot of things that happened to Jenni did not make the air or they were edited with another narrative.”
In the case of Jersey Shore Season 1, Farley’s storyline was to be with DelVecchio. And that storyline is still true! This season on Jersey Shore: Family Vacation, DelVecchio and Farley reignited their spark during Pivarnick’s bachelorette trip to New Orleans. Sadly for fans of “PWoww,” nothing has developed in terms of a relationship between the two.
