AMERICAN Pickers star Danielle Colby revealed she filmed with Mike Wolfe’s brother Robbie Wolfe.
The 45-year-old shared a snap with Robbie on set after Frank Fritz accused Mike’s brother of replacing him on the show.
Danielle took to Instagram on Thursday to share a throwback photo with Robbie, which she captioned: “This was right as the show was starting. I visited him and his new shop recently while out on the road. 
“For a rundown on my time with the Robbie and Mike you can check out my Road Dog Diaries on Patreon with the Lava Lust tier.
“I’m going to be posting a couple more #throwbackthursday pictures up on there too for the Sensual Spark tier. Follow the linktree in my bio!”
Danielle’s post comes shortly after Frank, 55, accused Robbie of replacing him on American Pickers.
Frank has been dropping a number of accusations against his former co-star in recent weeks.
MIKE CONFIRMS FRANK’S EXIT FROM SHOW
Following Frank’s absence from American Pickers, Mike took to Instagram on July 21 to reveal his longtime co-star is no longer part of the show.
In the statement, Mike said he’s “known Frank for as long as I can remember” and “he’s been like a brother to me.”
After stating that the “message” of the show is that we “all have a common thread,” Mike concluded: “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.”
FRANK SPEAKS OUT
Frank responded to Mike’s statement while exclusively talking to The Sun, stating: “Mike’s statement was bulls***, somebody wrote it out for him.
“We never were friends in grade school.
“I don’t believe in ten years he’s said five nice things to me, you know?
“Unless he was cutting somebody else down and we were both laughing.”
Frank continued: “Mike didn’t call me himself, never, like I said – we haven’t spoken for two years.
“That is the 100% truth and I don’t like people that lie to people.
“I’m not a liar just for the fact that my brain can’t remember if I lied or not.
“I don’t lie to people, even if it hurts. If it hurts your feelings, I’m sorry. If you don’t like me anymore that’s your problem.”
After reiterating that he hasn’t spoken to Mike in two years, Frank said: “That is true and I’m not going to sit here and f****** lie to people.
“And if he doesn’t like it, then maybe he should have f****** called me. Maybe he should have called and said ‘Hey, how’s your back doing?’”
Frank- who previously opened up to The Sun about his back injury that led him to lose 65lbs– added: “He knows I hurt my back, everyone in the whole network knew I hurt my back, but did one person – just one – call and see how I was? No.
“So how does that make you feel? It makes you feel like you’re just a number.
“It was like ‘Oh you hurt your back? Well life goes on, you know. F*** you.”
FIGHTING COSTARS
American Pickers fans wondered where Frank was during the most recent season, as his last episode aired in March 2020.
While he told The Sun his initial absence was due to him recovering his back injury, he also revealed hasn’t spoken to Mike in two years.
Frank said: “[Mike] 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.”

While the exact cause of the tension wasn’t made clear, Frank did say: “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 front man. 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.”
Danielle seems to have chosen Mike’s side in the feud, as she recently took to Instagram to state Frank is “unwell.”
