Ronnie Ortiz-Magro and Jen Harley's volatile relationship issues will fuel the upcoming season of "Jersey Shore Family Vacation" and it's put his co-stars in an unusual position.
While Ronnie himself is taking a break from the spotlight right now to focus on his daughter, the rest of the reality show cast -- sans Snooki -- opened up about how they feel about Harley and the drama Ron's relationship with her has brought to the show.

"We tried everything, it was hard. We got drug into it, literally, he got dragged by the car," Pauly D joked to Us Weekly. "We were there for comic relief. We gave him resources, everything we need to do to get him right because he's our brother."
"We are trying to support him in what he was going through, but it changed a lot during the season," added Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino. "It was rough for us to figure out what we we're gonna do."

Jenni "JWoww" Farley said she felt "bad" for them right now, because they're trying to put what happened behind them just as it's beginning to air on MTV. "We're here to support him, his family, his daughter," she added.
The whole gang was then asked how they feel about Jen, personally.
"It puts us in a weird position, you know, when your friend has somebody and you see that significant other treating them bad, you're like, you have to like this person because they're going to be back with them, that's how we are with her," Pauly responded.
