New enemy lines are drawn as Karen wages battle when Carla aligns herself with Drita D’avanzo.
So much for the Mob Wives trying to make peace with each other. During the Jan. 22 episode, the temporary armistice is revoked when Karen Gravano gets into a heated fight with her enemy Drita D’avanzo‘s best friend and ally Carla Facciolo during a meet-up.
Karen starts complaining about Drita spreading rumors that she put Karen in the hospital after the season one bloody balcony battle. “That didn’t happen,” Karen reveals. “I never went to the hospital.”
“But they said that you went to the hospital because of your ribs and that’s what we kept hearing,” Carla tries to explain.
Karen doesn’t like that Carla keeps defending Drita. “I’m sitting here trying to be cool with Carla, but she keeps defending Drita’s lies and it’s getting me hot and mad,” Karen tells the cameras. “You’re aligning yourself with Drita, so giggle on bitch.”
Back in the conversation, Carla implies that Karen is a liar. “Listen, I will always have Drita’s back the way you always have Ramona [Rizzo]‘s back,” says Carla.
“Drita’s a c*** and I will fight her right now,” Karen threatens.”I wish that you had come to Renee’s party because I think that you would have found it funny when your friend got a black eye. I’m proud of it.”
This makes Carla furious. “The way that Karen’s speaking about Drita, I think is disgusting,” Carla says. “Drita’s not sitting at this table, so don’t tell me what you think about Drita. I think you should tell Drita yourself how you feel.”
Karen is done. “I’ll tell you right now, you are going to go to war with me and you don’t want to go to war with me,” she warns.
“No maybe you don’t want to go to war with me,” Carla returns.
The girls stand up and are in a full blown argument — but Carla storms off with Karen hot on her heels.

Karen really is horrible! I like the show but would like it more if she wasn’t on it.
