Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi claims Wendy William once made her drink beer on camera to confirm pregnancy rumors.
On Tuesday’s episode of “Off The Vine with Kaitlyn Bristowe,” the “Jersey Shore” alum recalled how she went on William’s eponymous daytime show in 2012 before publicly announcing she was expecting her first child.
“She was intimidating, for sure,” Polizzi said of Williams before her pal, Joey Camasta, chimed in, “Remember when she made you drink when you were pregnant?”
“She did,” Polizzi, 38, responded, as Camasta clarified the reality star was “secretly pregnant.”
“She heard there was a rumor that I was pregnant,” Polizzi explained. “She brought out beer for me and Jenni [Farley] and goes, ‘Well, let’s see if you’re pregnant!’”
Polizzi called the moment “so crazy” and revealed she pretended to drink the beer for the cameras, saying, “I didn’t even take a sip.”
William’s rep wasn’t immediately available to Page Six for comment.
In a clip from the 2012 interview, Polizzi was seen pretending to take a small sip of the beer as Williams shouted, “So you’re not pregnant! That was a pregnancy setup.”
The reality star gave birth to her first child, a son named Lorenzo, in August 2012. He’s now 13.
Polizzi is also mom to daughter Giovanna, 11, and son Angelo, 6.
The “Jersey Shore: Family Vacation” star shares her three kids with her husband, Jionni LaValle, with whom she wed in November 2014.
Polizzi, meanwhile, is currently battling Stage 1 cervical cancer.
Polizzi announced her diagnosis in February and confirmed in April she would undergo a hysterectomy as part of her treatment plan.
“I’m not great with pain, so thinking about removing an organ is scary,” she told People about the surgery, which will remove her uterus.
“That’s a part of being a woman and even though I’m done having kids, the thought of not being able to really upset me,” Polizzi added. “It messes with you a little bit.”
