Jersey Shore’s Sammi ‘Sweetheart’ Giancola and her fiancé, Justin May, are expecting their first baby together.
“We’ve been keeping a little secret.. ✨Baby May Due August 2025✨🤰🏻,” Giancola, 37, wrote in a joint Instagram post with May shared on Sunday, February 23. “After struggling through years of infertility, this is the absolute greatest blessing we could ever possibly ask for!”
She continued, “We are so thrilled to finally be able to share the news of our little miracle with you all! Our hearts have never been so full of love, we can’t wait to meet you baby! 🫶🏼🥹💕.”
Alongside the message, Giancola shared a series of photos of the couple posing while holding the black-and-white ultrasound images. The last image featured a teddy bear sitting underneath an umbrella at the beach, positioned next to a sign that read, “We’ve been keeping a secret. Baby May due August 2025.”
Giancola shared in a November 2024 episode of Jersey Shore: Family Vacation that she suffered a miscarriage after undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF).
“This has been a very long process, it’s been a lot of shots, it’s been a lot of hormones,” Giancola said during a confessional. “Just the thought of even being pregnant was such a magical moment for me, and just to have that taken away — it’s devastating.”

Giancola gave a sweet shout-out to May, who she said had been supportive during the difficult time. “He’s so positive and uplifting,” she gushed. “He’s so special to me, and I just am so thankful for him. He’s been by my side through this whole thing. I just love him.”
Giancola suffered the pregnancy loss shortly before May proposed in 2024. “I am just like, in awe,” Giancola said in a confessional during the episode. “I’ve dreamt of this moment my entire life. I feel like the luckiest girl in the world.”
She added, “Justin coming into my life made my life a million times better. He is just everything I could ever ask for in a man. He’s patient. He’s supportive and I just love and adore him so much.”
Giancola announced her engagement to May in April 2024, while showing off a close-up of her ring. “Life update: Fiancé. The easiest question I’ve ever answered,” she wrote via Instagram. “Happiest & luckiest girl in the world. I’ll love you forever, and then some. Can’t wait to spend the rest of my life with you.”
