Is Mike Wolfe still on American Pickers?

Mike Wolfe, his brother, Robbie, and antique shop manager Danielle Colby all co-star in American Pickers' season 24.

Fans, however, have yet to get over Frank Fritz's disappearance from the show in 2020.

Wolfe and Fritz had starred in 21 seasons of American Pickers before the 57-year-old was mysteriously dropped from the show.

Wolfe confirmed Fritz would no longer be on American Pickers back in July 2021, ." 

"I pray for the very best and all good things for him on the next part of his journey," he wrote at the time. 

While Wolfe expressed having a close relationship with Fritz, the dropped co-hot revealed to The Sun in July 2021 that he and Wolfe hadn't spoken in "two years" and that he "didn’t leave the show." 

"I finished shooting and then I had a little back surgery and the pandemic came,” he said. 

Mike Wolfe and Frank Fritz opted to quarantine in different states when coronavirus hit the US.

“I would like to come back to the show. I was doing it for 11 years. I’m 100 percent recovered now and I’m ready to roll and go back on the show," he said at the time.

The feud seems to have dwindled after Frank suffered a stroke on July 21, 2022.

Frank was allegedly found "sprawled on the floor" around the time of the incident.

Is Mike Wolfe married?

Mike currently lives in Leiper’s Fork, Tennessee, which is about a 40-minute drive from his Antique Archaeology store in Nashville. 

Mike Wolfe has been married to Jodi Faeth since 2012.

The couple share a daughter, Charlie Faeth Wolfe.

"Becoming a dad late in life is never a dull moment but I know how special these moments are with her," the 58-year-old wrote on Father’s Day.

"I cannot believe how fast she is sprouting up. I [love] being a dad to my brown-eyed baby girl."
