The world lost a great comic legend when Joan Rivers died last Thursday, and even the cast of VH1's hit reality series "Mob Wives" felt the need to honor her memory.
Angela Raiola, also known as Big Ang, took her sorrow via her Facebook page as soon as she heard the news about Rivers' passing. Big Ang said, "Loved you from Johnnie Carson to @fashionpolice @joanrivers My heart breaks for her daughter Melissa . Great role model & mother. So funny she could dish it out & take it. God Bless Her & Her Family."
Renee Graziano also expressed her grief, this time via Twitter. "The true Hollywood Icon and Laughable Legend Joan Rivers will surely be missed," the reality star said.
Before the cameras began to roll for the reality show's fifth season, one of the cast members decided to quit the show. Alicia DiMichele from Mob Wives Season 4 opted not to return for Season 5.
When asked about her co-star's departure from the show, Renee Graziano simply said, "Honestly, I was a little surprised she joined the cast because of her whole court case."
"The show didn't bring her any good, so I can see why she's pulling out now," Graziano added.
Though there are no official news yet about the final show line-up, VH1 said that there will definitely be a new season. Still, the production date and its actual airing are not divulged at the moment.
The show, which was first aired on April 17, 2011, delves with a group of women living in Staten Island whose fathers or husbands were arrested and taken into custody due to crimes that are related to Mafia.
After its first three seasons, the show began its fourth season with a new name, which is Mob Wives: New Blood.
It is not surprising that the reality stars are affected with the death of the "Fashion Police" co-star. Just like Joan Rivers, the girls are also known to be hilariously outspoken and loud.
