Paul \u201cPauly D\u201d Delvecchio<\/strong><\/a> gushed about girlfriend Nikki Hall<\/strong> and how she cared for him<\/a> when he was rushed to the hospital. On the Thursday, May 9, episode of Jersey Shore: Family Vacation<\/em><\/a>, the DJ opened up about being hospitalized when the cast was in Nashville in October 2023.<\/p>\n \u201cIn Nashville, I had a little problem where I had a hemorrhoid that kind of ruptured and it was bleeding throughout the night,\u201d Pauly, 43, explained. \u201cIt was bleeding so bad that I lost so much blood that I actually fainted. So I had to get rushed to the hospital and they had to give me a blood transfusion and then sew that up. It was gnarly.\u201d<\/p>\n While Nikki, 32, was not on the cast trip, she rushed to Pauly\u2019s side when she heard the news. \u201cI\u2019m very thankful and grateful for Nikki,\u201d the reality star shared. \u201cShe was by my side, flew to Nashville, and she helped me out during this whole process. It was a scary thing.\u201d<\/p>\n Three weeks later, Pauly assured his castmates that he was feeling \u201cbrand new\u201d as they vacationed together in Arizona. \u201cI bounced right back,\u201d he said. In another confessional, he also shared, \u201cHonestly, that was the hardest part, having to cancel [two shows]. There\u2019s kids who saved up all year, they got outfits, they got haircuts, they got tickets, all to see me. And then I couldn\u2019t make it. I\u2019ve never done that before.\u201d<\/p>\n Pauly and Nikki met on season 1 of Double Shot at Love<\/em>, which aired in 2019. However, Pauly decided to leave the show solo and not pursue a relationship with the Jamaican native. She returned for season 2 of the MTV series and left the show dating Pauly. The season was filmed at the end of 2019 and Pauly and Nikki\u2019s relationship<\/a> was taken to the next level just months later when they quarantined together amid the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n Jersey Shore<\/em> fans then got to know Nikki when she began appearing on the show. However, she took a step back from filming after season 5, which aired throughout 2022. In a TikTok Live, Nikki admitted that she decided not to film the show anymore to protect her mental health because she had been receiving an influx of hateful comments online.<\/p>\n Still, fans have been waiting for Nikki to make her Jersey Shore<\/em> return, and it looks like they\u2019ll be getting their wish. In April, the Las Vegas resident was spotted filming scenes<\/a> for the show with Pauly and several other cast members.<\/p>\n
