Looks like the drama doesn't stop for Jersey Shore cast members once they're off the air.

Police were called to the Toms River home of Jenni "JWoww" Farley, 32, on Friday because of a "civil matter" between the "Jersey Shore" star and her estranged husband, Roger Mathews, township police confirmed to Patch.

The incident happened at approximately 1 a.m. Afterward, Mathews was served with a temporary restraining order and provided transportation to another location, police said.

The disagreements then continued on social media where Matthews acknowledged that the two fought in front of their children.

In an Instagram video, Matthews took issue with Farley's claims on social media that, he believes, suggested he put their children in harm's way. He said Farley started the dispute by wanting to go to work and not take care of their children.

"I am not the violent one," he said, "and I do not want to have to prove that."

On Instagram, a statement from Farley said: "Certain events transpired last night which led Jenni to involve the authorites, and the best interests of her children, to do so."

Three months ago, Farley filed for divorce from Mathews, which Matthews revealed on Instagram. The divorce complaint was filed on Sept. 12 in Superior Court in Ocean County, according to The Asbury Park Press, citing irreconcilable differences. The couple have two children, The Press said.

In September, Mathews, in his statement on Instagram, said he didn't blame his wife for the divorce.

"There's no cheating or any dumb s--t or any juicy details," he said. "She just grew tired of the repetitive pattern that we fell into. Again, I am not going to get into detail but it was a repetitive pattern and not a good one."

Mathews vowed to win his wife back. "I'm going to win her affection back. I'm going to win her love back," he said. "I have no intention of being a single dad. We're in counseling, so there is hope. It ain't over till the fat lady sings."

Farley's public relationship with Mathews was marked by playful insults documented for the cameras before the show headed to Miami, according to nj.com.

Farley also recently revealed on the MTV series that her son, Greyson, has not been able to meet developmental milestones, according to nj.com.
