Jennifer Martone decided to take her daughters Bria and Lexi Martone on a glamping trip. The two had been bickering over the business not doing well and Lexi had complained about having to pull everyone's weight when it was supposed to be 50-50 in the business.

Bria was torn between her personal and professional commitments, therefore making it difficult for her not to be available as much as she could. She went up to Lexi and cleared the air and everything was good in their universe again.

Jennifer was glad that her daughters were on good terms finally and to celebrate it, she decided to take them camping along with the other girls at the salon. Not everyone leaned into this idea immediately but Jen wasn't taking no for an answer and everyone got into the rented camper and rolled out towards their location.

Who is Gia Picciano on 'Unpolished'?

Gia is a makeup, hair, and lash technician at Salon Martone. Dressed in camo and cute accessories, Bria and Lexi joined Gia and the other girls on the glamping trip.

Once they reached, Jen told them that even though it's a glamping trip, staple activities like archery and barbeque weren't out of the picture. Bria and Lexi showed off their exceptional archery skills hitting the bullseye a couple of times. Next came barbeque and it was an out-and-out disaster because Jen hadn't turned on a stove and it's a no-brainer that she was an absolute dud with zero grilling skills. 



 

Lexi and a couple of other girls helped ignite the barbeque but Jen still continued to remain all over the place and even served a hot dog that she had dropped on the counter. Gia was seen eating it later at night and had a stomach ache after, coughing bouts that left everyone worried. 

Does Gia Picciano have a Covid-19 scare and does Jennifer Martone miss wedding for that? 

Not much is known about what happened to Gia. However, it will be revealed in the next episode if it was a Covid-19 scare or a stomach bug. Tuesday (February 23) night's episode also revealed that Jennifer had fallen sick, was coughing, and told Bria on a video call that there are chances that she might not be able to attend her wedding which was a week away.

However, for those who've not been following the Martone's on Instagram, Jennifer was indeed present at Bria's wedding which took place in September 2020.
