‘JWoww’ and Roger Mathews’ divorce was finalized in 2019

After three years of marriage, Farley started the divorce process in September 2018. She cited “irreconcilable differences” after claiming her relationship with Mathews starter to suffer six months prior. In her filing, Farley requested to maintain “primary residential custody” of their two children, Meilani and Greyson. 

In August the following year, Farley and Mathews were legally divorced. “Jenni and Roger have reached an amicable conclusion and finalized their divorce,” Farley’s representative told E! News. “They remain devoted to co-parenting their children in a happy and healthy environment and they both wish each other the best.”

Jenni Farley’s boyfriend proposed on Feb. 27, 2021 

“JWoww” got engaged to Zack “24” Carpinello on her 35th birthday. “On 2.27 I said yes on the top of the Empire State Building,” Farley shared on Instagram

“My always and forever,” Carpinello wrote when he shared his own set of photos. “You made me the happiest I’ve ever been. I love you more than anything.” 

As Mathews explained to Us Weekly in April 2019, Carpinello is “a good friend of [Farley’s] little brother.” Ironically, Carpinello attended Farley and Mathews’ wedding in October 2015.

When the couple started dating in 2019, Mathews told Page Six “[Carpinello] seems like a terrific guy and I’m very happy for them.” More recently, Mathews spoke out about Farley’s engagement.

“I didn’t think it was my place to comment, [but] I’m happy for her,” he said on his podcast (via TMZ). “I’m happy for them.”

Does Roger Mathews have a girlfriend? 

Like Farley, Mathews began dating shortly after their divorce was finalized. “I’m casually dating — cautiously so,” Mathews told Us Weekly in September 2019. “My kids are my focus.” 

At the time, Mathews said he was looking for “an established woman with her career and personal life in order — [someone] who is understanding that [his] children will always come first.” Communication was another big focus for Mathews, who said it was “critical” at this point in his life.

“If you’re a bad communicator, we probably won’t make it far,” he explained to the outlet. “I want peace and stability in my life for myself and my children.” A few months later, Mathews seemed to have found that person. 

In January 2020, TMZ reported Mathews was in a relationship with Danielle Miele. Sources told the outlet the couple were officially together but taking things slow. Unlike Farley, Miele wants to keep her life out of the spotlight. 

Who is Roger Mathews’ new girlfriend Danielle Miele?

Miele is Mathews current girlfriend. Mathews allegedly met the hairdresser in May 2019 at a concert. According to her professional Instagram profile, Miele specializes in bridal hair and is a licensed cosmetologist in New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut. 

Most recently, Miele and Mathews vacationed at the Crystal Springs Resort in New Jersey. “Met some cool people this trip,” Mathews captioned a photo. “We absolutely will be back with the kids to do some things we didn’t get to do this time.” It’s unclear how close Miele is with Meilani and Greyson, but she has spent time with Mathews’ children
