Big Ang, real name Angela Raiola, lost her battle with cancer in the early morning hours of Feb. 18 and fellow celebrities have proved just how much she will be missed by taking to social media to share their condolences.
The Mob Wives star, 55, passed away after finding out recently that not only did her throat cancer return, but it spread to her lungs and brain. Her sister, Janine Detore, recently set up a GoFundMe page to fund alternate treatments when her chemotherapy treatments weren’t working.
Big Ang had a larger than life personality and appeared on several reality television shows, such as her Mob Wives spin-offs Big Ang and Miami Monkey. Since her passing was confirmed, stars like Real Housewives of New Jersey’s Teresa Giudice, Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi and her Mob Wives co-stars Drita D’Avanzo and Renee Graziano have taken to Twitter to react.
