Jersey Shore: Ronnie Dragged For Candid IG Post With Girlfriend Saffire
Jersey Shore fans are dragging Ronnie for his latest photo alongside girlfriend Saffire Matos. The photo also sparked concern for her well-being.
Ronnie Ortiz-Magro is being bashed online after he posted a candid photo alongside girlfriend Saffire Matos following his alleged firing from Jersey Shore: Family Vacation. Ronnie posted the never-before-seen picture on his Instagram story early Tuesday. Not long after he shared the photo, fans mocked it, describing it as cringe-worthy and uncomfortable.
Earlier this month, Ronnie announced he will be stepping away from filming Jersey Shore: Family Vacation. One day prior to his announcement, the first trailer for the new season of the show was released. Surprisingly, it featured no clips of Ronnie. The news came just one month after his arrest. When a heated argument with Saffire turned physical, Ronnie was taken into custody on accounts of domestic violence allegations. He was later released on $100,000 bail. However, law enforcement later revealed Saffire did have physical signs of abuse upon their arrival.
Ronnie and Saffire are assumed to still be together since they continue to post photos together on social media. Now, Ronnie is being dragged by fans after he shared yet another picture with her following the incident. Early Tuesday morning, Ronnie posted a candid photo alongside Saffire on his Instagram story with no caption. Fans were quick to drag him on Reddit, bashing the photo. As Ronnie has continuously posted about mental health, some claim his excuses actually "worked" and convinced Saffire to stay with him. Others begged for the two to stop posting photos together. Fans believe they are trying to prove they are happy together despite the recent drama. One comment read, "Clearly they’re doing it to better their image in the media but this will only make things worse when they hit another dip."
Aside from fans feeling annoyed by the couple over-sharing photos together, the latest post also brought out concerns for Saffire's well-being. Many believe she looked quite scared and uncomfortable in the photo, almost as if her smile was forced. One user wrote, "She looks like she’s in pain," while another described it as "troubling." As they fear Ronnie is not actually seeking help, fans are hoping Saffire finds the strength to get herself out of the toxic relationship. With Ronnie's history of domestic violence incidents and arrests, it is assumed that the couple will encounter yet another altercation sometime in the future if they do stay together.
Despite stepping away from the show, Ronnie was part of the upcoming season of Jersey Shore: Family Vacation. Since production edited him out of the trailer, it is unknown if Ronnie will be seen throughout the new episodes. Prior to his recent arrest, Saffire was expected to make her debut on the show as well. The new season of the show premieres on jerzday June 3 on MTV.
