"Mob Wives" season 6 won't see veteran cast member Renee Graziano in action anymore. According to Radar Online, she had to quit in the midst of production for a very urgent reason. 

"She's been struggling with Season 6 from the beginning," an insider spilled to the aforementioned publication. "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." 

According to the insider, this is because of the reality star's "very poor health," adding that Graziano was even rushed to the hospital last Aug. 13.

"She had to have EMS go and pick her up and she was kept under care," the source explained. 

The insider also said that Graziano is dehydrated and suffering from low potassium levels. She is also reportedly dealing with a worryingly low blood pressure and her "hormone levels are unbalanced." This was said to be the reason she cried in the middle of scenes in season 6. Because of these, her doctor prohibited her from working. 

In addition, Graziano isn't just worrying about her health. Her father is currently battling cancer and her mother suffers with lupus. Season 6 and its drama have also taken its toll on her so the insider said she had to quit. 

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

While she won't be in "Mob Wives" season 6 anymore, the source said that she might not be gone for good. However, that isn't something being talked about right now as Graziano's priority is her health.
