Snooki Splits With Boyfriend?

Jersey Shore star Nicole 'Snooki' Polizzi and her boyfriend Jionni LaValle
are said to have split after eight months of dating, according to Life and Style magazine.

The split reportedly happened while LaValle was visiting the reality star in Florence, Italy, where she is filming the fourth season of the MTV show.

"Snooki and her boyfriend have split up," said the Life and Style insider. "He went to visit her in Italy this past week. They fought a lot while he was there and have called it quits."

"He said it was hard for them to be apart, and that with the whole world knowing her past, he finds it very hard to trust her," a second source close to Jionni confirmed to Life & Style. "He said that as far as he was concerned, if she did anything wrong in Italy, it was over."

"When he got back from Italy, he called a mutual friend [of ours] and said that they had broken up," adds the source. "I think he was just really sad about being away from her so much. I'm not sure who broke up with whom -- it seems to be mutual because of the distance and the time apart."
