Ever since the death of Frank Fritz, following his departure from American Pickers, fans were starting to worry that they would lose another member of the show. Fans also feared Danielle Colby, who has been dubbed the “Queen of Rust,” would be leaving the show. In fact, some fans started to fear something serious had happened to her. Some recent updates have shed some light on the situation.

Some Fans Feared The Worst For The ‘Queen Of Rust’

American Pickers revolves around a pair of co-hosts, including series creator Mike Wolfe, traveling around the United States to find various antiques and hidden treasures. On the show, Danielle Colby runs the office of Wolfe’s business, Antique Archaeology. Often, the hosts follow leads that Colby has given them.

Colby was a friend of Wolfe’s before the show came out. In fact, it’s believed she was hired for the antique shop once the show was picked up by History Channel.

However, fans are starting to worry they’ve seen the last of Colby on the show. The TV personality briefly took a break from the show during Season 23 and was even the subject of a recent death hoax.

When reports of her death first came out, Colby herself took to social media to dispel these rumors. She quoted Mark Twain, writing, “The report of my death was an exaggeration.” She then added a more personal touch with, “Also, please use a better f****** photo when I do actually die.”

American Pickers Fans Might Not Have Seen The Last Of Danielle Colby

Some fans still thought Colby’s departure could be due to less serious reasons. Others simply thought her work as a dancer or her fashion boutique, 4 Miles 2 Memphis, would keep her too busy to work on the show.

That said, there are a few reasons fans should expect Colby to return for Season 26 on the show. Back in early October, Colby took to Instagram to share, “All new American Pickers tonight, see you there.”

In the accompanying photo, Colby could be seen standing with other cast-members on the show. Other posts have featured her talking about filming for the show.

As noted by Distractify, the network still has Colby’s bio on its official website, suggesting she’s here to say. As it reads, “Danielle Colby is a lover and collector of all things vintage…She continues to unearth forgotten histories of people and objects from all over the world. Danielle is drawn to anything that tells a story!”
