Fans know that Alicia DiMichele exited the Mob Wives cast after Season 4, but who is staying for Season 5 of the hit VH1 show?

Rumors started earlier this spring that Renee Graziano was looking to get out, but now it seems all of last season's women are staying put for the next season. According to a new post on the blog All About The Real Housewives, Mob Wives just started filming Season 5 last week.

"The ladies first day of filming began Thursday," the source said. "All the ladies are back except Alicia DiMichele. As of right now, there are no new cast members, but they are still bugging Alicia in hopes that she'll come back. There is talk that Jenn Graziano is trying to bring in Karen Gravano because Renee Graziano has nobody that'll fight for her."

The source continued to say that Big Ang doesn't want to anyone's "dirty work" and that Gravano may need the money.

DiMichele quit the show after she was brought up on charges of fraud and embezzlement. "She's trying to fix her image," a source said about the former reality TV star. Graziano, an original Mob Wife, agreed with DiMichele's exit.

"She is a mom and has to do what she needs to do for her three beautiful children, who don't deserve to be pulled through the mud," Graziano said. "She is doing the right thing leaving the show, and I wish her all the best."
