A new teaser posted on the show's Instagram page reveals what fans can anticipate. As always, the whole ensemble joins in as Angelina's hunt for her father reaches a surprising climax.

To discover Angelina's biological father, Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino engaged the services of Pamela Slaton, a genealogist from Jersey. An earlier DNA test revealed that the guy she thought was her father was not her real father.

"Pamela, the genealogist, actually found my biological dad," Angelina adds in the video. “This is such a big thing for me. Hopefully, I can have the family I always wanted,” she continued.

“Pamela’s been digging through the archives of my life. I want to find out about my biological father. If it will hurt me, I’d rather she tell me the truth.”

Angelina Pivarnick's meeting with her biological dad 'wasn’t good’

In an exclusive interview with Life & Style, 'Jersey Shore' star Angelina confessed that seeing her biological dad wasn't what she had hoped for. Angelina was able to find her biological father's name and meet him after viewers witnessed her realize that the guy she thought was her father was not her biological parent during season 7 of 'Jersey Shore: Family Vacation'.

"It wasn't good," she told Life & Style of the meeting at iHeartRadio's Jingle Ball at Madison Square Garden in New York City on December 8. Angelina stated that she did not want to "trash this man," but would speak the truth about the event.

The MTV star stated that she wished her father would invite her to "get ice cream" or "go to the movies," but that "never happened." "It’s more like, ‘Buy me a car, buy me this,'" she explains.

"The first night I met him, he grabbed my Rolex, and he was like, 'Is that a Rolex?'"

Angelina verified that the watch was a Rolex, to which her father responded that he had always wanted one for himself. "I was like, 'Are you f-king kidding me?'" she added.

The Staten Island native then said that her decision to meet her biological father and his family had a bad influence on her relationship with her mother, Ann Marie Pivarnick. "She will not speak to me," Angelina stated.

"It’s very sad. I love my mother to death," she said.

She went on to say that her family, including her sisters Alyssa and Amanda, are "mad" because she has started a connection with her new half-sister. "She has an autistic child, who I love so much," Angelina raved of her new family.

"And she’s got another son, who I love. Those are my nephews."

"And then I met my aunt, and then I have a grandmother that’s 84 years old, and I have eight cousins," she said. "She adopted eight children."

Eagle-eye 'Jersey Shore' fans try to identify Angelina Pivarnick's biological father

Months ago, eagle-eyed fans on Reddit claimed they might have found out who Angelina's biological father is. One Redditor noted, "Angelina found her real dad (this is from 2 months ago posted by Angelina on her story)."

As some fans feel, "At least it’s a start for her," others feel, "Oh my god he looks like Teresa G’s cousin’s husband from RHONJ."

During Season 7, fans saw Angelina accept the truth that she never knew her biological father. The season concluded on a positive note when Mike recruited the assistance of Jersey-based genealogist Pamela, who was able to locate her father.

"I deserve this. This is a very happy moment," Angelina told her co-stars throughout the episode.

"This whole thing puts things in perspective, and I’m so thankful to everybody for everybody helping me find my dad."
