They’ve been putting on a brave face for the cameras, but Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi and her baby daddy Jionni LaValle are heading for splitsville, according to an exclusive new report in Star magazine.

The Jersey Shore star and her fiance have looked the perfect couple as they’ve hit the chat show circuit to promote her new reality show Snooki & JWoww, which has already been renewed for a second season.

But, according to a source, the couple, who welcomed a baby boy called Lorenzo on August 24 are only together for fame.

“Snooki is desperate to stay famous,” a source told Star. “She can’t stand to be around Jionni. She’s only going to go through with the wedding for a million-dollar payday.”

And the problems are further escalated by reports that Jionni is frustrated with Snooki for wanting to go out and party like it’s 2009, while she thinks he’s an absent father.
