'Jersey Shore: Family Vacation' has returned with a new episode titled 'Single Ronnie.' Very aptly named, to be honest. Most of the hour was involved in Pauly D and Vinny Guadagnino finding a match for Ronnie Ortiz-Magro, who claimed to be in a better space after his split from Jen Harley. 

His relationship with Jen had gotten bitter and out-of-hand and there was not much they could have done to salvage it. However, the ex-couple were able to arrive at  an arrangement where they will peacefully co-parent their daughter, Ariana Sky Magro, amid domestic abuse allegations. 

Meanwhile Pauly and Vinny seem invested in finding love for Ronnie, a process they have named 'Trouble Shot at Love' inspired by their MTV-backed dating show 'Double Shot at Love'. But before the screening begins and Ronnie starts meeting the girls chosen for him, the friends are making sure that the 'future boyfriend' is groomed and ready to make an impression. Vinny even gave Ronnie a few fashion tips while Deena Nicole Cortese busied herself in doing up the space where the girls would arrive to have a one-on-one chat with Ronnie. Meanwhile, Ronnie confirmed his relationship status on Instagram late October, when he shared pictures with his girl -- Saffire Matos.

Who is Saffire?

Of Cuban and Italian heritage, she spends most of her days being an eyelash technician at Lashes by Bear, which is based out of Staten Island, New York. The couple seems to be happy in the pictures Ronnie shared on social media but there's no way to tell when they began dating. Is it possible that Ronnie met Saffire through Paul and Vinny? Time will tell. 
For now, Ronnie is not feeling the whole idea of his friends trying to find him a girl because he simply cannot trust them with the job. He even told the girls why they were so interested in his love life. "Do you want to ruin my happiness?" he asked.
