AceShowbiz - During a recent episode of his podcast, media personality Wack 100 revealed that famed producer Irv Gotti suffered a stroke several months ago. The conversation took an intriguing turn when Wack shared an image of Gotti using a cane on Instagram.
The post garnered widespread attention and commentary online. Despite criticism accusing Wack 100 of insensitivity, rapper 50 Cent also jumped into the fray with his own take, poking fun at Gotti.
"Damn homie, in high school you was the man homie, WTF happened to you?" 50 Cent posted alongside the image of Gotti using a cane. "I want Irv to get well, so he can have to watch my next wave @bransoncognac @lecheminduroi." This wasn't the first instance of 50 Cent taking jabs at Gotti. Just last month, he criticized Gotti for his ongoing legal troubles.
However, Gotti's team quickly moved to clarify the situation, confirming that the producer had indeed experienced a minor stroke six months ago due to long-standing diabetes issues. "Irv has been struggling with diabetes for years, which caused him to have a minor stroke over six months ago," a representative told TMZ. "He has since changed his diet to eating more healthy. He's been successful in making a full recovery. Irv is not in a rehab facility. He is at home with his family, enjoying life."
Wack 100's claims included a disturbing narrative that Gotti had "lost a lot weight" and needed a cane to walk, only for Gotti's team to assure fans of his recovery. "Irv is not in a rehab facility," they emphasized, debunking speculations about his condition.
