Ronnie Ortiz-Magro's baby mama Jenn Harley checks into rehab for alcohol dependency

Ronnie Ortiz-Magro’s ex-girlfriend and baby mama Jenn Harley has checked herself into a Las Vegas rehab for alcohol dependency. 

The Jersey Shore vet’s former flame has reportedly entered a 28-day program of her own volition in an effort to be a better parent to their 3-year-old daughter Ariana, per a statement issued by her rep to TMZ. 

The decision comes less than one month after Harley was charged with domestic battery and assault with a deadly weapon following an altercation with her new boyfriend Joseph Ambrosole, whom she allegedly pointed a gun at while threatening ‘I’ll shoot you n****’ and ‘I’ll kill you right f****** now.’

Harley’s rep Gina Rodriguez issued a statement to TMZ upon her rehab check-in on Saturday July 17. 

‘Jenn Harley has decided to check into a Las Vegas rehab facility to seek treatment for her alcohol dependency. She made the decision to get help because she wants to be the best parent she can be for her children.’ 

She and the Jersey Shore: Family Vacation star share a three-year-old together, and  endured a tumultuous on-off three-year relationship that ended in 2019, but they kept things relatively civil through 2020. 

Harley’s decision to enter rehab is fresh on the heels of an arrest for domestic battery and assault with a deadly weapon against her now-boyfriend Joseph on June 19. The incident allegedly saw her hurl racial slurs at her boyfriend and point a gun at him.

Law enforcement detailed the evening in question and the drama that allegedly went down between the pair at Crazy Horse 3 in Las Vegas, as the duo argued over her alcohol consumption as well as the location of where they would park their vehicle, according to TMZ.

The couple took their row into the establishment, where they were asked to leave by club security, authorities said. 

The fight continued throughout the course of the drive home where Harley’s anger allegedly intensified to the point where she got a bit physical and even tossed his phone out the window.

After pulling over to look for the phone, Harley reportedly got into the driver’s seat and left him stranded, forcing him to find his own way back home — at which point things turned more violent. 

Police said that Ambrosole said that when he arrived to their residence, they continued to exchange words, at which point Harley threatened him with the firearm, before leaving the home.  

Despite the incident the pair are seemingly still together with a recent Instagram posted of the pair on July 5 on a boat with Ariana. 

After her arrest the two were also seen handing out food to the homeless in Los Angeles on June 27.

The same weekend Jenn was arrested, Ronnie proposed to his now fiancee Saffire Matos. 

Jenn and Ron’s relationship was rife with issues including numerous physical altercations, cheating allegations and domestic violence arrests on both sides.

In 2018 she showed up to a Vegas hotel unannounced where filming for Season 2 of Jersey Shore: Family Vacation was taking place, at which point she ‘lunged, spit and shoved Ronnie,’ prompting hotel security to get involved and the police to be called, according to Us Weekly. 

Just weeks later she was arrested for domestic battery after she was said to have hit him in the face and dragged him with a car which caused him to sustain injuries. 

She did not face charges however due to insufficient evidence and denied the situation, flipping it on him, but she was arrested another time for domestic battery in 2019.
