Mob Wives, the show mostly featured the fight between two mob wives, Karen Gravano, and Drita D'Avanzo. The reason behind all this fighting is because of Karen in Lee’s ex-girlfriend. The two mob wives have difficulty digesting the fact that their lives are interlinked and the cause is Lee.
These fights have been getting more serious over the years. Drita is as strong as she was before but the entire fact about Lee cheating on her and Karen being involved in their dating life has been wearing her out. She even begged the VH1 producer to not hire Karen.
She and Lee have two daughters while Karen dated Lee for almost 7 years. The couple has adopted for divorce. And the rumors have flung on high that they have separated.
However, Drita D'Avanzo has said in the show that she plans to work on her marriage once Lee is free of all his felonies. She is currently 47 years old and has a net worth of around $3 million which shows her huge salary.
