Renee Graziano Quits 'Mob Wives' Season 6 After Health Concerns: No Longer VH1 Star
Mob Wives might currently be underway filming for it's new season, but it seems that the pressures of the show has become too much for one of the veteran stars of the VH1 series. While the show has revolved around stars Karen Gravano, Drita D'Vanzo, and Renee Graziano from the beginning, it looks like fans are going to have to say goodbye to Renee for the time being. Shooting for season six is underway but Graziano has decided to bow out halfway through filming in order to focus on her health.
According to Radar Online, the starlet's health has been a major concern over the last couple of weeks, which has made itself present during filming for the new episodes.
"She's been struggling with Season 6 from the beginning," a source close to production revealed. "After giving six years on the show, she has made a decision to step away from the camera temporarily and to walk away from the show right now."
Renee reached out to the news site telling them that she wishes nothing but the best for the show, but that she needs to take a step back for now.
"I do love VH1 very much, and I support them 100 percent," the star explained. "I support my sister [Jennifer Graziano – Creator and Executive Producer of Mob Wives], but right now is a chance for Renee."
The chance Renee might be talking about is a chance to get her health back under control.
"Renee made the conscious decision due to very poor health," an insider explained of her reality series exit. "Renee went to the hospital yesterday. She had to have EMS go and pick her up and she was kept under care. They ran every test under the sun and said to her, 'You are dehydrated. You shouldn't go to work.' She needs vitamin B12, has low potassium and is dehydrated."
Our thoughts go out to Renee, and hope she is feeling better soon.
