Polizzi alleges that Williams suspected her pregnancy and used the stunt to try to confirm rumors during the show

Nicole ‘Snooki’ Polizzi is claiming that Wendy Williams once tried to get her to reveal whether she was pregnant in an unorthodox way.
On Tuesday, May 19, the Jersey Shore alum appeared on an episode of the Off the Vine with Kaitlyn Bristowe podcast and spoke about a specific time she was on the show when she was pregnant but hadn’t publicly shared the news yet.
“She was intimidating, for sure,” Polizzi said of Williams.
“Remember when she made you drink when you were pregnant?” asked the reality TV star’s friend, Joey Camasta.

“She did,” affirmed Polizzi. “Well, she was secretly pregnant,” clarified Camasta.
“Well, she heard there was a rumor that I was pregnant. She brought out beer for me and Jenni and goes, ‘Well, let’s see if you’re pregnant!’ Like, so crazy. And I was like,” Polizzi said, miming taking a drink. “I didn’t even take a sip.”
A rep for Williams didn’t immediately respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.
Polizzi and her husband Jionni LaValle share sons Angelo, 6, and Lorenzo, 13, as well as daughter Giovanna, 11.

The mom of three recently spoke with E! News at the Jersey Shore: Family Vacation final season premiere, where she shared how her three kids reacted to the news that she has to undergo a hysterectomy after revealing she has stage 1 cervical cancer.
“I said that Mommy has this and has to get surgery, and I’m gonna be fine,” said Polizzi. “But my oldest was like, ‘Are you going to heaven? Are you dying?'”
The mom of three then said her son tried a joke, asking, “Are you gonna leave me something?”
She went on to say that her kids have realized that she needs to get through the surgery to be ok.
“My kids are funny, and my kids are amazing,” said Polizzi. “They realized that Mommy has to be healthy and needs to get through these surgeries, and everything is gonna be ok.”
