Fans of VH1’s Mob Wives may or may not be happy to know that the new season is coming, but it looks like it has been re branded, with two new ladies and some departures. The franchise is now being called Mob Wives: New Blood  airs on December 5 and it features original cast members Renee Graziano, Drita D’avanzo, and Big Ang, who was just a ‘friend’ of the wives in the past seasons but now is an official cast member. Fans will have to say adios to three former ladies Carla Facciolo, Karen Gravano and Ramona Rizzo, as they have been swapped out with newbies Natalie Guercio and Alicia DiMichele both from Philly. 

The show’s creator Jennifer Graziano issued a statement on the new changes:

“Philly and New York mobsters have mostly been known to be friendly with one another. The new women were an organic addition to our existing cast as even Natalie has New York roots and ties to some ‘friendly faces.’ Natalie’s spitfire ways and Alicia’s personal story about getting arrested and ‘going down’ with the mob offers a new perspective on what it means to ‘live the lifestyle’ or to be a ‘mob wife.’ We are looking forward to a fresh, new and rejuvenated season!”
