Drita D'Avanzo is a television personality best known for her role on the reality series Mob Wives: New Blood. Outside of her television appearances, she has worked professionally as a freelance makeup artist. Her presence on Mob Wives offered viewers insight into the complexities of her personal life, often shaped by her ties to organized crime through her husband, Lee D'Avanzo.
Drita married Lee D'Avanzo, who has been incarcerated for involvement in bank robbery and other criminal activities. The couple shares two daughters. Before marrying Drita, Lee was reportedly involved in a relationship with fellow Mob Wives cast member Karen Gravano, with whom he lived for several years.
During Lee's incarceration, rumors circulated that Drita was involved with another man named Marc. It was reported that she considered leaving Lee to start a new life with Marc. Although initially accepting the situation, Lee allegedly responded with violence, sending individuals to assault Marc, an incident that reportedly hospitalized Marc for several weeks. These events contributed to ongoing tension in their marriage.
In 2011, ahead of Lee's expected release from prison, Drita stated that she was willing to forgive him and rebuild their relationship. However, it later emerged that Lee had engaged in extramarital affairs during his time out of prison on temporary releases. Upon discovering his infidelity, Drita initiated divorce proceedings.
Although the marriage lasted approximately 12 years, only about two of those years were reportedly spent living together as a couple. Conflicting reports suggest infidelity may have occurred on both sides, though neither party publicly confirmed the full extent of the allegations. Speculation also arose that Lee may have initiated the separation to pursue another relationship.
Drita has publicly stated that Lee made several mistakes during their marriage, describing his decision to leave the family for another woman as a profound betrayal. The details surrounding their official separation or divorce proceedings remain private, and no comprehensive legal outcome has been made publicly available.
During episodes of Mob Wives, viewers witnessed Lee express anger at Drita during phone calls, incidents that included shouting and profanity. Drita did not publicly respond to these moments in detail but reaffirmed that she no longer wished to remain in a toxic relationship.
As of now, Drita D'Avanzo’s current dating life is not publicly known, and she has not been seen with Marc or any other partner since publicly acknowledging her separation from Lee. Both the status of her relationship with Lee and the finality of their legal settlement remain undisclosed to the public.
