Reality star Snooki (real name Nicole Polizzi) and fiancé Jionni LaValle have just become parents for the second time, only a few hours after the pint-sized MTV star took to social media saying that she was growing quite sick and tired of being heavily pregnant.

As fans probably know, the two have a 2-year-old son, Lorenzo, with Snooki announcing a while back that they were getting ready to welcome a girl into the family as well. She is here now.

Snooki announces the birth of Giovanna Marie LaValle

Snooki is unashamed of her social media habits and the amount of time she spends online, sharing almost every aspect of her personal life with the fans. So no wonder then that she took to Twitter right after the delivery, to break the happy news.

The latest addition to the family is named Giovanna Marie LaValle, she is perfectly healthy and has a “full head of black hair.” She is nothing short of “perfect,” the new mom (for the second time) gushes.

“Thank you to all the outpouring love you guys are sending my growing family! We are so happy & can't believe we have two kids!,” Snooki also writes.

“Absolutely love being a mother to two kids! Haven't gotten a wink of sleep taking care of & staring at my daughter,” she adds in another post on her Twitter feed.

Snooki let TV cameras into the delivery room, because of course

Snooki is a reality star, and like most such stars, she is willing to share things about her life us regular folks wouldn’t even consider sharing with strangers. That includes the special experience of giving birth, which TMZ says was filmed and will be included on the upcoming season of her reality show.

Snooki and JWoww initially appeared on the now-defunct MTV series Jersey Shore, but they now have their own spinoff series. The birth will be shown in one episode, with the celebrity publication making the obvious note that it won’t be too “graphic” because, after all, this isn’t Nat Geo.

She did the same when she delivered Lorenzo, and even had her post-delivery outfit prepared ahead of time because she wanted to look perfect for their first-ever photo.

A life turned around completely

While she was on Jersey Shore, whenever she did interviews to promote the show, Snooki would insist that she was playing a “character” for the camera, that the woman we saw getting so senselessly drunk as to think potted plants were excellent dance partners wasn’t who she was in real life.

She wasn’t lying, as it turns out. Since before she became engaged to Jionni, Snooki turned her life around, sobered up, started eating right, stopped clubbing like she did before, and reinvented herself, going from scandalous reality star to successful businesswoman.

She’s had two kids already and is selling everything from fake tanner to shoes and music headphones under the Snooki brand. Because there’s really not much that her name can’t sell, she also put out several best-selling books and has branched out online as well, with a very successful webseries.
