American Pickers’ Danielle Colby shades Frank Fritz by slamming ‘people with egos’ after star’s dramatic exit from show
AMERICAN Pickers star Danielle Colby shaded Frank Fritz by slamming people with “egos.”
The 45-year-old made the comment following Frank’s dramatic exit from the show.
After sharing insight into the long running History Channel show, Danielle said that the entertainment industry has left many of her peers with big “egos.”
While talking to the host, Danielle said: “In the entertainment industry, that ego gets so real so fast.
“There have been times where I have to put myself in check or my daughter.
“I’ll read something and she’ll be like, ‘Why don’t you read that again without the tone?’”
While Danielle didn’t directly name her former co-star Frank, 56, as someone with a big ego, it wouldn’t surprise American Pickers fans if the comment was a jab at him.
END OF AN ERA
Frank last appeared on the popular show during a March 2020 episode.
Fellow American Pickers star Mike Wolfe, 57, confirmed Frank would not be returning to the show in a July Instagram post.
He told fans: “I have known Frank for as long as I can remember, he’s been like a brother to me. The journey that Frank, Dani, and I started back in 2009, like all of life, has come with its highs and lows, blessings and challenges, but it has also been the most rewarding.
“The support that you all have given us has been a constant reminder of what the show’s message has always been; thru these places, people, and things we all have a common thread. We’re here to not only take care of the past but also each other.”
The TV personality continued: “I will miss Frank, just like all of you, and I pray for the very best and all good things for him on the next part of his journey.”
FEUDING CO-STARS
In an exclusive interview with The Sun, Frank revealed he is feuding with Mike as the 57-year-old continues to appear on the History Channel.
“I haven’t talked to Mike in two years. He knew my back was messed up, but he didn’t call me up and ask how I was doing. That’s just how it is," he disclosed.
"The show is tilted towards him 1,000 percent. I can’t even bend that far down to show you how much.
"That’s fine. It’s like you’ve got Aerosmith and there’s Steven Tyler and he’s the frontman. I found my spot, I’m second and he’s number one on the show. That’s no problem with me, maybe he does have a problem."
