Mob Wives Alum Renee Graziano Slams ‘Trashy’ and ‘Cruel’ Real Housewives

I’m just going to confess. I was a Mob Wives fan. There was something so fascinating about their lifestyle and friendships. Of course, Renee Graziano was the OG of the series. But even though she has some friends who are part of Real Housewives, Renee is taking a whack at the franchises.

Renee Graziano of Mob Wives doesn’t like “receipts”

Renee and her sister Jenn Graziano, who created Mob Wives, recently visited Page Six’s Virtual Reali-Tea podcast. And Renee weighed in on Real Housewives of New Jersey’s controversial Season 14. “What I would do is keep the men out of it. Leave the men out of it… it’s called Housewives, Housewives,” Renee said. She noted that Dolores Catania is “one of the nicest women on the show.” She added of Dolores’ boyfriend, Paul Connell, “Leave that man alone. He just got here.”

But Renee wasn’t done with RHONJ. “I have a very strong opinion. I do not like everybody pulling, receipts, to me it’s like snitch stuff,” she explained. Of course, Renee knows Teresa Giudice from their VH1 Christmas movie, Fuhgeddaboout Christmas.

Then Renee waded into the drama between Teresa, her brother Joe Gorga, and his wife, Melissa Gorga. “I would never involve myself with Teresa, Melissa, and Joe, it’s none of my business. I would love to see them repair their relationship,” Renee said. She added, “I truly would.” I think I can predict that Teresa is standing firm, alone, with her husband, Luis Ruelas.

Then she discussed her feelings about other Real Housewives franchises. “I’m not with it. OC, tapes, watching people, bringing people’s phone conversations … what are you doing? I don’t save my messages. When I’m done with that conversation, gone,” Renee stated.

She continued, “I don’t like it. I think it’s a shame. I think it needs to stop on the Housewives. It’s trashy to me. I think higher of those women.” Renee added, “It’s cruel. People could go to jail, children could lose their fathers, their mothers, it’s not something to play with.”

Well, that is an interesting take from Renee. Thankfully, Renee has been sober for over nine months. I would love to see her back on our screens.

Real Housewives of New Jersey is streaming on Peacock.
