'Jersey Shore: Family Vacation' is turning itself into a dating show just for Ronnie Ortiz-Magro. Pauly D and Vinny Guadagnino make this happen after they finished filming for their show 'Double Shot At Love.' While Vinny did not find someone he would want to be in a relationship with, Pauly got lucky as he met Nikki Hall. 

Pauly and Nikki had met each other on Season 1 of the show, but they officially started dating after having a good time in the second season. With Ronnie being single, Vinny and Pauly thought it was time to help their fellow family member. They decided to start 'Trouble Shot At Love' and invited girls they thought would be good for Ronnie. 

They first started by ensuring Ronnie looked like a dashing man before he met any of his dates. Once that was done, they decided to bring in the girls. Ahead of the show, Ronnie had admitted he was shocked to find out Pauly was taken while he was single. Ronnie was previously married to Jen Harley. The two even have a daughter together. While Ronnie had thought he had found his happily ever after, things went south when he and Jen started having problems. Their relationship turned sour when their problems were publicized on social media and made tabloid headlines.

To make things worse, there were allegations of domestic abuse involved as well. Their divorce soon became the talk of the town. Fortunately, Ronnie managed to put it all behind once he got the divorce finalized. In the previous episode (November 26), Ronnie had admitted he was in a better place following the split. He further added that his focus was now on his daughter and ensuring they lead a good life. Months after the split, Ronnie recently revealed he was dating again as he made his relationship with a new girlfriend, Saffire Matos, public. It is unclear if she would be one of the girls who made their way to the hotel to go on a date with Ronnie. 

While Vinny and Pauly have many girls lined up for him, there is no doubt that the next episode would be interesting as it will shed light on Ronnie trying to find love again. 

'Jersey Shore: Family Vacation' airs on Thursdays at 8 pm ET on MTV.
