Earlier this month, Wack 100 revealed that Irv Gotti suffered a stroke this year. He shared the unfortunate news on his podcast and later leaked a photo of him walking with a cane. Shortly after, Gotti's team confirmed the news in a statement to TMZ, revealing that he's doing just fine now.
“Irv has been struggling with diabetes for years, which caused him to have a minor stroke over six months ago," a rep explained. "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.” He later chatted with The Shade Room, assuring the outlet that he was in good health.
