Jersey Shore Family Vacation star Vinny Guadagnino is single once again after his third round of Double Shot at Love.
During Season 3, fans were hopeful that Vinny had finally found love with Akielia “AK” Rucker, however, following the finale, Vinny admitted that things didn’t quite work out for them.
Following their breakup, Vinny shared a post to his Instagram stories and joked about how he is “an acquired taste.”
He wrote the caption on top of a photo he shared that said, “idk what it is about me but people cannot stand me [cryng emojis]”
While Vinny is definitely a favorite amongst Jersey Shore Family Vacation fans, it seems that he’s having difficulty in the love department.
His costar Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi even mentioned recently that she thinks he will need another season of Double Shot at Love to help him find love.
Vinny Guadagnino blames format of Double Shot at Love for breakup with AK
While he may be an “acquired taste” for some, it didn’t seem to be a problem for AK.
The two of them seemed happy together and even Vinny’s mom was fond of his love interest.
However, Vinny placed blame on the format of Double Shot at Love as part of the reason why his relationship with AK didn’t quite work out.
In an Instagram story, he reminded everyone that the finale was filmed seven months prior to it airing. He said that while they were no longer together, they had remained friends.
He dubbed Double Shot at Love as a “crazy social experiment” and talked about how people are matched together “in a few weeks” and then can’t be physically together for several months until the finale is aired as to not ruin the ending for viewers.
Because of that, it makes it difficult to build a real relationship together. Despite not having the same luck as his costar and best friend Pauly DelVecchio who met his girlfriend Nikki Hall during Season 1, Vinny shared that he’s still “always down to take the shot.”
There hasn’t been any mention of a fourth season of Double Shot at Love or whether Vinny would be willing to go down that road again.

Jersey Shore Family Vacation fans will get to catch up with Vinny and the rest of the Jersey Shore Family Vacation cast when Season 5 premieres next month.
