In the wake of talent manager Wack 100's revalation that Murder Inc. founder Irv Gotti has suffered a stroke, a Gotti rep has made a statement to TMZ about the mogul's condition. "Irv has been struggling with diabetes for years, which caused him to have a minor stroke over six months ago," the rep shared. "He has since changed his diet and is 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 has posted images of Irv walking with a cane outside of a rehabilitation facility (he referred to the cane as a walker). Gotti addressed his health issues on a past episode of Drink Champs where he says that his diabetes is hereditary,but reversible with a lifestyle change. "[Diabetes] is rampant with Black people," he explained. "I've been diagnosed with diabetes forever, its hereditary. You gotta change the way you eat and all that."

Rock The Bells sends well wishes for Irv!
