'Mob Wives': Renee Tries Yoga For Calm After Family Betrayal
After losing both her father and ex-husband to the authorities, Renee was in need of some peace and serenity on "Mob Wives" (Sun., 8 p.m. ET on VH1), so she decided to give yoga a try. While she looked at peace while doing it, she was still working through some complicated emotions.
"Breathe, serenity, peace, quiet," she said. "These are words that I have no f*cking idea what the definition is."
It didn't help that Carla started spouting her own theory that Renee knew her ex-husband Junior was working with the government to take down Renee's father. In other words, she was implying Renee was involved in her own father's arrest.
Or is that what she said? Carla was certainly saying that it was no big shock Junior betrayed Renee. He'd been acting a little off since his return. Hindsight does, after all, provide much better clarity.
Follow all the drama on "Mob Wives" every Sunday at 8 p.m. ET on VH1.

In a matter of weeks, I found myself, an intelligent young woman growing up in the nation's safest city, in a great deal of trouble. While I was quickly able to break it off and move forward, many women are not so fortunate.
It seems like every time I turn on the television there is a new ridiculous reality show. The far-fetched idea of reality for entertainment makes me really question the intelligence of my generation.
Mob Daughter is not a book about the mob -- this isn't really even a book about Karen Gravano's uber-famous underboss father. This is about a family, plain and simple.
When you tune in to an episode, you can hear the same words being uttered by these women no matter what the show: "I don't like drama." Yet consistently drama is what surrounds these women and it almost seems like the ladies thrive on it.
The women I most admire are not pinnacles of Class. I do not admire Princess Kate or the First Lady, or even my mother. With Mob Wives , I'm getting reprogrammed with tenets of womanhood I've searched cable television for my entire life.
