Renee Graziano’s fans don’t have to worry about not seeing her on Mob Wives. On Friday night, Renee denied that she has left the show. The cast is currently filming the show’s sixth season.

Renee tweeted that she didn’t leave the hit VH1 show but that she is focusing more on her emotional health.

Earlier on Friday, Radar Online reported that Renee decided to leave the show over concerns for her health. The website directly quoted Renee as saying that she’s taking time to focus on herself.

“I do love VH1 very much, and I support them 100 percent. I support my sister [Jennifer Graziano — Creator and Executive Producer of Mob Wives], but right now is a chance for Renee.”

A source told the website that Renee decided to walk away from the show due to “very poor health.”

“She’s been struggling with Season 6 from the beginning. 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 made the conscious decision due to very poor health.

The source revealed that Renee even had to go to the hospital on Thursday.

“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.”

The source added that Renee, whose “hormone levels are unbalanced” and has seriously “low blood pressure,” is also under the stress of her father having cancer and her mother’s battle with lupus.

Surprisingly, one person who has shown support for Renee after her health scare is Natalie Guercio. A day after Radar Online‘s article posted, Natalie tweeted that she’s praying for Renee.

When Natalie first showed up on season 4 of Mob Wives, she and Renee got along great. Renee, declaring Natalie to be her mini-me, even had Natalie model her Mob Candy fashion line. Yet the relationship deteriorated after Natalie commented one night that Renee’s date smelled “delicious,” which Renee thought was out of line. Things got so bad between the two that they even came to blows during the cast’s trip to Las Vegas. While Renee and Natalie were able to keep their hands off one another on season 5, they still weren’t able to stop bashing one another.

Yet while Renee Graziano has remained on Mob Wives, it seems that Natalie Guercio hasn’t. As previously reported by the Inquisitr, Natalie has strongly hinted, via social media, that she is no longer on the show.
