Are the American Pickers team turning against each other after Frank Fritz's departure? According to one tabloid, people didn't like how Mike Wolfe handled his partner's firing. Danielle Colby could be the next to go. Here's what we know.
Feud Explodes Behind the Scenes of 'American Pickers.
The History Channel announced in July that Frank Fritz would no longer be returning to American Pickers. Fritz was once a star on the antiquing program alongside Mike Wolfe. Now, Fritz is revealing the details behind the scenes about their rivalry. Fritz noted that he had never received a call from Mike Wolfe after he quit the show to take care of his health. Fritz was fired by Starreports Wolfe this week. The rest of the pickerscrew aren't happy.
Fritz was unable to continue the show because of back surgery and subsequent addiction. Fritz is said to have made a complete recovery and went to rehab. According to the tabloid, Fritz wanted to go back to Pickers after he had recovered. An insider says that Fritz thought Mike was doing it when he heard he wasn’t being wanted back on the show. "Mike has the power to fire and hire."
The whole thing has sunk morale behind closed doors. According to a source, the workplace has become "toxic" since Wolfe kicked Fritz out. Danielle Colby, a fan favorite, may also leave if they don't resolve their differences. The tipster says that "working on the show has become tedious and egos are taking over." People are saying Danielle will be the next to bail."
Mike Wolfe Creating 'Toxic' Workplace?
Fritz and Wolfe are not the best of friends. It's not hard to see why. Fritz's firing was not the scandal the tabloid portrays it to be. Fritz had been gone for almost two years before the magazine cut ties with Fritz. It was impossible to prove that Fritz was returning, but it was likely that both sides knew this possibility. This was likely a group decision for a show such as Pickers. Wolfe may not be firing people he doesn’t like. Why wouldn't Wolfe have fired Fritz sooner if he had the power? This story is not true.
We don't believe Danielle Colby is angry with Wolfe. Colby posted a long message on Instagram expressing her support for Wolfe after Fritz was fired. Colby wrote, "Out on road again with my greatest friend and my big brother, whom I fully support and stand behind." She thanked Fritz for her advocacy over the past ten years. She also said that Fritz is her best friend and she hopes Fritz has a great time. Colby doesn't intend to go anywhere.
The Tabloids on 'American Pickers'
This is not the first misleading tabloid story about the pickers in recent months. The Globeclaimed Wolfe's friendship with Colby was problematic for his new relationship. Then it was OK! The American Pickers crew claimed that Wolfe was being turned on by them. These stories were fabricated without regard for facts. It was easy to ignore this one.
