The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 12: First Look!

Bravo is about to make history.

In the first, just-released trailer for The Real Housewives of Orange County, we see a lot of fighting, a lot of name-calling and a number of very expensive vacations.

But these are just part for the scandalous course when it comes to this long-running cable franchise.

One woman referring to another as a "bitch" and another woman labeling a fellow cast member as a "liar" aren"t exactly historic.

But this in:

The upcoming season of this beloved series will feature the debut of the 100th cast member in Real Housewives history!

Her name will be Peggy Sulahian and she’ll be considered a “princess” by her co-stars for a very good reason: Peggy is very rich and not very shy about her riches.

Sulahian resides in Newport’s Crystal Cove community with her husband Diko, and their three kids, Giovanna, 19, Gianelle, 17, and Koko, 9.

We see her in the following preview receiving a diamond bracelet as a present and laughing about it isn"t too shabby to live her amazing life.

What else do we see/learn in the preview:

– Lydia McLaughlin is back!

– Vicki Gunvalson and Shannon Beador are still fighting, with the former saying she doesn’t “give a shit” about repairing their relationship in one featured scene below.

– Meghan King Edmonds is being mommy-shamed, while also screaming a lot.

– Beador is aghast over her own weight gain, saying at one point that “all I want to do is eat.”

– A trip to Iceland brings out the best and worst in the Housewives.

– And Heather Dubrow is nowhere to be seen, having announced in January that she"s done with the program.

The Real Housewives of Orange County: Who Is Returning for Season 12?

There’s going to be a lot of drama when The Real Housewives of Orange County returns for Season 12 later this year. 

Vicki Gunvalson and Kelly Dodd are confirmed to be part of the cast roster for the latest season of the reality series. 

If you watch The Real Housewives of Orange County online, you will already know the pair caused a lot of drama on the most recent season. 

Being the sole original housewife still on the show, Gunvalson has been pulling out all the stops to ensure she gets as much screen time as possible.

Gunvalson went up against the ladies in a string of epic arguments that made us question why she was not the only full-time housewife.

Sure, she can be malicious as hell, but she made for great TV. 

Dodd came to Guvalson’s defense many times throughout the most recent season.

All of the ladies seemed to have a problem with the original housewife because they thought she was in on Brooke Ayers’ cancer claims that caused a storm during Season 10. 

It was recently revealed that both Gunvalson and Dodd wanted Tamra Judge off the show because of all the beef they had with her. 

What the two women did not seem to realize is that viewers tune in when there’s drama, so there was absolutely no way Judge was being let go without a fight. 

It has since been confirmed that Judge will be returning as a full-time cast member. 

Producers are also hoping to send the ratings higher with the return of Lydia McLaughlin who has not been a full-time member of the cast since Season 8. 

Shannon Beador has also signed on to return, but what about Heather Dubrow and Meghan King Edmonds?

It was recently confirmed that neither women would be staging comebacks. It’s always good to refresh the cast every so often. 

It helps bring more drama, so we’ll reserve judgment on the new cast until the show returns.

There is no official return date set as of yet, but it will most likely be in the summer. 

What do you think about all of this?

The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 12: Who"s Coming Back?

A very familiar face is on her way back to Bravo.

According to Us Weekly, producers have reached a deal with a former cast member to reprise her role on The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 12.

So… who will it be? And will fans be happy to have her return to the mix?

That depends on how you feel about… Lydia McLaughlin!

Indeed, the Season 8 regular is apparently “excited” and prepared to hurl a bunch of insults and to mix things up once again with her fellow spoiled residents of Orange County.

McLaughlin was series regular way back on Season 8, which aired its finale in September of 2013. She did not return afterward.

Gretchen Rossi and Alexis Bellino also left the series following this season, whose cast included Vicki Gunvalson, Tamra Judge and Heather Dubrow.

“It’s bittersweet,” McLaughlin told Us Weekly upon her departure, adding:

“I compare it to breaking up with a boyfriend you know you’re not going to end up with – it’s hard, but overall you know you’re doing the right thing.”

And sometimes you end up getting back together with that boyfriend.

McLaughlin has kept pretty busy since leaving Bravo, especially in her personal life.

In November of 2014, she and husband Doug welcomed their third child into the world, a son named Roman.

The couple then renewed its wedding vows in April of 2016 after a decade of marriage.

As for The Real Housewives of Orange County itself, the series is getting closer to finalizing its Season 12 roster.

We know that Meghan King Edmonds will not return after two seasons as a cast member, while Judge will be back for her tenth season.

“#yes #stillahousewife,” the latter wrote on Instagram a few weeks ago as confirmation of her status.

Dubrow, meanwhile, announced last month that she’s done with the show, saying via statement:

“These past five years have been an incredible journey, and I’m so proud to have been a part of such an iconic piece of pop culture.”

Bravo has not yet commented on any of these cast changes.

Heck, the network has not even officially picked up the program for another season just yet.

But we’re pretty darn confident it will be back.

How will executives possibly explain its cancelation to the following celebrities, all of whom are on record as legitimate Real Housewives fans?

It’s worth noting, by the way, that you can watch The Real Housewives of Orange County online by visiting our friends at TV Fanatic.

Go all the way back to Season 8 and see what sort of impression McLaughlin left on viewers at the time.

Are you psyched to see her in scandal-filled action again on new episodes?

Heather Dubrow: I"m Done With The Real Housewives of Orange County!

Heather Dubrow will not be returning for another season of The Real Housewives of Orange County. 

Turns out, the constant arguments with Vicki Gunvalson have had a lasting effect on the star. 

The star took to her PodCast One show, Heather Dubrow’s World to reveal that she would not be returning to the Bravo series when it returns later this year. 

“If you’re wondering why I’ve decided to not come back, it wasn’t an easy decision,” Heather explains.

“You know, it’s hard to walk away from something, first of all, that’s been successful for five years, and truly has given us so much. But I just feel like, right at this particular point in time, a couple of things [changed my mind].”

“First of all, my kids,” she continues. “My oldest kids are now teenagers, and I just felt like they need to make their own decision about being on television and exposing their lives, and for me personally, I have some really cool, interesting opportunities that I want to explore.”

“I don’t know where they’re going to go, but I want the opportunity to explore them.”

“I felt like I was at a tipping point, and just… it was time,” she says.

“But, it’s all positive and I wish them all the best.”

If you watch The Real Housewives of Orange County online, you will already know that most of the cast butted heads with Vicki for a lot of different reasons. 

There is word that Heather will not be the only person leaving due to Vicki, but we’ll keep you updated. 

Aside from revealing the news on her podcast, she took to the Bravo site to release a statement about her departure. 

After a lot of careful thought and deliberation, I have decided not to return to RHOC this season. These past 5 years have been an incredible journey and I’m so proud to have been a part of such an iconic piece of pop culture.

Watch The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 Episode 21 Online

I am so grateful to Evolution Media, Bravo and the whole NBCU family for all of the incredible experiences and the opportunities RHOC has afforded me and my family.

However, at this point in my life, I have decided to go in another direction and do what’s best for my family and career. Should I change my mind, I thank Andy Cohen, Evolution and Bravo for telling me that the door is always open.

What do you think of Heather’s departure?

Meghan King Edmonds: FIRED From Real Housewives of Orange County?!

In most professions, constantly creating drama and assaulting your co-workers will get you fired.

If you’re the star of a Bravo reality series, however, not doing those things is almost certain to bring your career to a premature halt.

Take Meghan Edmonds, for example.

Even if you regularly watch The Real Housewives of Orange County online you might find yourself scratching your head and struggling to place that name.

The problem is not only that Edmonds only lasted two seasons on the series, it’s that even among confirmed Bravo-holics, the series isn’t exactly heavily-buzzed about.

It manages middling ratings, and boasts a lower production budget than the other series in the Housewives franchise, but it’s not surprising that execs are looking to make cuts before the RHOC returns for a twelfth season.

And it now looks as though Edmonds was first on the chopping block.

Us Weekly is now confirming that Edmonds will not be returning to the show.

Neither the network, nor the 32-year-old mother of one have commented on the situation, but it’s widely believed that the decision to part ways was not made by Edmonds.

While Meghan and her husband, former baseball player Jim Edmonds, don’t appear to have pressing money issues, their storylines and tabloid headlines of the past two years have mostly involved major financial hits.

Throughout season 11, fans watched as Meghan underwent costly in-vitro fertilization treatments, and last year Jim Edmonds was hit with a major lawsuit that continues to threaten the future of his business interests.

Considering Jim has four kids from two previous marriages, and the couples financial future remains uncertain, it seems unlikely that Meghan would willingly pass up an easy six-figure paycheck from Bravo.

Currently, Vicki Gunvalson, Tamra Judge, Heather Dubrow, Shannon Beador, and Kelly Dodd are all scheduled to return for another season.

Insiders have confirmed that Judge will return despite some her co-stars’ efforts to have her ousted.

Hey, at least there will be considerably less drama in Edmonds’ life these days.

Of course, she’s still married to that grumpy bastard that viewers loved to hate for two seasons.

The Real Housewives of Orange County Reunion Recap: Did Shannon Beador Lose Her Mind?

On The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 Episode 21, or part three of the reunion, Shannon Beador finally hit her breaking point.

Which co-star finally pushed things a little too far?

We kicked things off with Shannon revealing the real reason why she didn’t join the rest of the ladies in Glammis Dunes.

It was pretty heartbreaking and kind of made up for some of the things she’s done over the course of the season. 

After several battles with pneumonia, she couldn’t subject herself to being around sand due to the permanent lung damage.

She went as far as saying she couldn’t always vacation in Hawaii. 

The volcanic ash could quickly make her unhealthy. We feel for you, Shannon!

Vicki Guvalson’s accident in Glammis was also brought up, with Meghan Edmonds implying she didn’t think it was that serious.

Even though Vicku was airlifted to hospital, Shannon revealed she would have visited if she was actually kept in hospital. 

Okay then. 

Vicki was pretty clear that even though they aren’t exactly on talking terms, she would still visit Shannon if she was in hospital and even dared her to hurt herself for the proof. 

Tamra Judge then piped up to reveal that Vicki’s daughter thought her mother was exaggerating her injuries to get the other ladies to take pity on her.

Vicky allegedly took the brace off as soon as the cameras were no longer rolling and was back to her former self. 

View Slideshow: Real Housewives All Stars: Who Should Be Cast?

We then got to more drama surrounding the claims that David was smacking Shannon around.

Vicki claimed she did not want to hurt Shannon’s family, but still went ahead and revealed the goodies. 

It was then revealed that Shannon was drunk after learning about David’s affair and fell at the bar. It got even worse when she returned home and barged through the door. 

Vicki was very defiant about the whole thing and didn’t want to admit that she could have been wrong.

Instead, she continued to throw accusations around about David hitting Shannon. 

Vicki was then grilled about saying Tamra Judge’s husband was gay, but she couldn’t seem to string a coherent sentence together about where she heard it from. 

When that was all said and done, Vicki claimed the method to her madness was the fact that cancer-gate was still fresh in her mind and she wanted to get back at the other ladies for it. 

Will this woman ever change?

If you watch The Real Housewives of Orange County online, you’re probably thinking she will be same forever. 

It was only a matter of time until this boiled over.

That’s a wrap on the three-part reunion extravaganza and we must bid adieu to the ladies until the next season kicks off. 

What did you think of all the drama?

The Real Housewives of Orange County Reunion Trailer: I"m Gonna Kick Some ASS!

The 11th season of The Real Housewives of Orange County has come to an end following Monday’s finale, but the drama is just beginning.

What we saw on The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 Episode 18 may pale in comparison to the s–tshow still to come.

Check out the trailer for next week’s reunion …

The Real Housewives of Orange County Reunion Trailer: Season 11

Yeah. Suffice it to say, it looks beyond ugly.

The reunion trailer begins with the calm before the storm, a behind-the-scenes look at the women getting ready to hit the Bravo stage.

It belies, yet foreshadows what’s to come.

“How’s it going? You ready for today?” Andy Cohen inquires, to which Shannon Beador calmly responds, “I’m gonna kick some ass.”

That’s the mindset we’re talking about.

Watch The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 Episode 18 Online

Not even five seconds later, the trailer cuts to Shannon telling Vicki Gunvalson, “You are despicable. I will never, ever speak to you again.”

Berating is probably a better word.

In her dressing room, Gunvalson reflected, “Not that I like to play the dirty game, but if you have to play it, you’ve got to play it strong.”

Who is she kidding? She loves it.

Vicki is not your average person when it comes to picking a fight. Scorched earth tactics have nothing on her. She will f–king savage you.

If you take her on, you’re really asking for it, since she has no qualms about how she is perceived in the process of destroying opponents.

None.

“If you don’t like me, bye bye Felicia. Get off my show,” she tells Shannon, and when you’re the OG of the OC, you can kind of get away with it.

Love her or hate her, Vicki isn’t wrong.

She’s been there 11 years, or 10 more than Kelly Dodd, though both have been equally polarizing characters throughout this season.

Then again, Kelly and Vicki were also the ones driving the show as a result. No offense to Tamra, Heather and Shannon, but be real.

Vicki and Kelly were the lifeblood of the series this fall, and as a result, they’re going to be in the crosshairs when the reunion comes ‘round.

This is just the way Bravo shows roll.

If you watch The Real Housewives of Orange County online, you know that Kelly doesn’t hold back or mince words in any way. Ever.

She should be a force to be reckoned with on that reunion stage; Tamra Barney, and her newfound Christianity, on the other hand?

Andy told Tamra, “Historically, the reunions bring out a very ugly side of you,” to which she replies, “I’m learning to use my words better.”

We’ll believe that when we see it.

The emotional high point, though, comes as Shannon tearfully states, “My husband did not beat me” and Vicki calmly says, “I have proof.”

Wow.

At that point, Shannon storms out. Just insane. Three installments may not be sufficient to cover all the s–t that’s about to go down.

The Real Housewives of Orange County Recap: Puppet Strings, Tamra"s Wings

On The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 Episode 17, the Ireland trip ended with the conclusion of the bus ride from …

Hell. It was hell. No other word can do it justice.

Back in Orange County, meanwhile, the women try to make sense of their war on foreign soil, while Meghan fled to St. Louis, Missouri.

Watch The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 Episode 17 Online

Why? Let’s break down that and much more …

Kelly Dodd decided that she was done playing nice with Vicki Gunvalson. These two just can’t seem to get along with each other, so it’s probably for the best they steer clear of each other. 

However, Kelly decided to go nuclear on her enemy and it was pretty damn crazy. Vicki implied that she didn’t like the drunk version of Kelly, but Kelly was having absolutely none of it. 

Kelly felt it was time to reveal that Vicki told her Shannon Beador’s husband, “beat the sh*t” out of her. It was a moment we thought would never play out on the hit reality series, but Kelly was just over it. 

As you can probably expect, Shannon was not amused at her dirty laundry being aired in front of the Bravo cameras. I mean, even if what Kelly said was true, she crossed a line by choosing that time to reveal it. 

It was a passive-aggressive move on her part to try and turn the tide on Vicki on The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 Episode 17.

Yes, we get she and Vicki have beef, but Shannon’s marital woes did not need to become part of the drama. 

However, Kelly was quick to point out that she done nothing wrong. It may be true that Vicki should not have been lifting the lid on news that was not hers to begin with, but Kelly should have known this was not the time, or the place. 

It was clear Vicki was desperate for a hole to open up and for the ground below her to to just swallow her up, but she tried to sugar coat what she did and it was blatantly obvious. 

Vicki implied that the only reason she opened her mouth, was because she feared David was going to hit her at a party. How convenient.

Poor Shannon had no idea how to process what the heck had just went down and settled for reminding Vicki that her kids used to refer to her as “Aunt Vicki.”

Oh, the drama. 

If you thought things could not get any worse, they most certainly did. 

Tamra Judge felt the need to ask Kelly if Vicki told her anything else. Selfish? Yes, but I guess she was trying to make sure everything was aired at that point so they did not need to revisit anything that came out of Kelly’s mouth down the line. 

There was some word that Vicki was talking about Tamra and Eddie’s fractured relationship. This paved the way for Tamra to run up to Vicki’s face and scream, “F*** YOU!”

Vicki tried to play the innocent card, but we all know just how devious she can be if she wants to.

Kelly then took aim at Heather Dubrow for apparently looking down on her. Umm, all of the people watching the show were probably looking down on her at that point. 

Heather probably wanted to steer clear of the drama. It’s not like she was the one blabbing about things she shouldn’t be. 

Back home, Tamra and Shannon are not letting Vicki’s claims go, but they did point out that they were funny. 

Briana was the one to point out that Vicki is in the wrong and never wants to admit when she’s done something wrong. She does have a point. 

However, Kelly continued to place the blame on Heather and that rubber her husband the wrong way. He pointed out that Kelly can work separately with the ladies to mend their relationships. 

Later, Vicki and Kelly met up for lunch and Vicki actually apologized for her actions. Kelly nearly choked on her lunch because Vicki has probably never apologized before. 

Kelly did admit that she needed to take ownership of her wrong doings, but she’s over it. 

As much as Vicki apologized to Kelly, she took to blaming alcohol on all of the things she said. That’s an easy way out of a really tough situation. 

View Slideshow: Real Housewives All Stars: Who Should Be Cast?

When it was all said and done, the ladies all attended the fitness competition. 

Sure, the friendships are still fractured as hell, but at least they can put things aside to help a friend in need. 

If you watch The Real Housewives of Orange County online, you know there will be a lot more arguments to come from the ladies!

The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 Episode 16 Recap: Old Ghosts, New Beef

Were Irish eyes smiling on Meghan, Kelly, Shannon and company on The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 Episode 16.

You don’t have to watch The Real Housewives of Orange County online to know that the drama follows the OGs from the OC worldwide.

That being said …

After a rocky start to their vacation, The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 Episode 16 saw them try to turn things around.

Try being the operative word.

Meghan King Edmonds took along Kelly Dodd as the group headed to a nearby village in an attempt to locate some of her old relatives.

Vicki Gunvalson, Tamra Judge, Heather Dubrow and Shannon Beador, meanwhile, traveled to a milk farm to meet Ireland’s top cows.

Seriously. These are the contrived storylines put together by the producers in order to get them into interesting locales to stir up drama.

Speaking of which …

Later, at dinner, Kelly awkwardly tried to make amends with Tamra after the two brawled and bawled so hard on last week’s episode:

“I’m telling you,” Dodd told a serious Tamra, “what I did was wrong and I don’t want to harbor any bad feelings or anything like that.”

Judge’s response?

“Thank you, but really Kelly, that’s something that’s so hurtful,” she said, clearly not willing to forgive or relinquish the moral high ground.

Later, tensions escalated as Shannon tried to get Kelly drunk again, in hopes of getting her co-star to do and say some absurd things.

At least that’s how Vicki put it, saying, “Shannon has this mission to get Kelly drunk, because she knows that crazy Kelly will come out,”

“This is naked wasted all over again.”

When the ladies made their way back to the airport, no one got naked, and not a moment of air time was wasted as the fit hit the shan.

Hard.

After calling Shannon a drunk, and a controlling one to boot, Kelly Dodd upped the ante by absolutely going off on her newfound rival.

“Why don’t you go shave your chin? With all that hair on there,” Dodd told a shocked Beador, hitting her hard out of left field with that.

“You know what Kelly, you always take things to a new low,” Heather Dubrow interjected on her friend’s behalf … not that she’s worried. 

“Nothing you can say will hurt me, because you’re trash!” Dubrow added, and something tells us that this trash has yet to be taken out.

The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 Episode 9 Recap: Kelly Dodd Defends Herself

On The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 Episode 9, Kelly Dodd once again sought to explain her rough behavior this far.

Watch The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 Episode 9 Online

For a new cast member, KD is already notorious, and The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 Episode 9 was proof of this.

To be the focal point of so much drama so soon is pretty impressive, but after the Battle at Beadors, well, Dodd’s notoriety is well earned.

This week, she put it all out there on the table.

“I feel like we were getting along really well,” Heather Dubrow said of herself and Shannon Beador, Kelly Dodd’s newfound rival.

“But that sushi dinner?” 

“I’ve just never been involved in something like that. The screaming and vulgarity? I felt like I was suffocating and I had to leave.”

Dodd’s response?

“I was kind of shocked that you got so upset at me because I wasn’t talking to you,” she said, feigning incredulity fairly well.

“It was a nightmare, and I’m really ashamed of myself, quite honestly,” Dodd added, but Dubrow said she wasn’t buying it.

Heather told the Bravo cameras that “I think it’s great that Kelly’s showing remorse and she’s ashamed of her behavior.”

BUT …

“But the last two times I have been with Kelly, she has acted in a way that I think is not acceptable,” so why assume she’ll ever change?

It’s a good point she raises.

Dubrow also asked Dodd why she made fun of her behind her back: “I leave and I hear you imitated me and made fun of me?”

“Why would you do that?”

Dodd’s response is that Dubrow wanted her to leave, and well, that’s just kind of ridiculous. “That wasn’t your party!” she said.

“That wasn’t your place.”

Heather’s take on that?

“When you start calling people the c-word and ‘dumb f—k’ screaming in the middle of restaurants, you lose all right to say.”

Okay then.

Dodd seemed at least partially humbled by that one, walking it back by saying, “I didn’t mean it towards you. I was wrong!”

“I admitted it. I’m not saying my behavior was right … it was wrong. That’s not my personality at all. I do not behave that way.”

“And I don’t hang out with women like that at all. It was probably the alcohol. And I felt like I was being attacked. She struck a nerve.”

“I was emotional. Do you understand how that made me feel?” Dodd said through tears. “I don’t just attack people. I don’t do that.”

She later broke down to the cameras, adding: “I know I have a problem with my anger, but I’m a mom and I’m a damn good mom.”

Dodd continued in her own defense:

“I have never been inappropriate around children … ever. When anybody accuses me of something untrue, the feeling of hurt is the reaction.”

“And I’m a very very emotional person,” she said, wishing this could all go away. “I feel like I’m treading water and I’m drowning.”

Did Dubrow buy it? Yes and no.

“It seems like Kelly’s tears were real,” she revealed. “She seems remorseful. But every time I see her it’s a different personality.”

What more can she say?

It’s hard to just assume everything is fine and let bygones be bygones when someone’s track record suggests otherwise, but here’s hoping.

“I guess we’re just going to have to wait and see,” Heather added, and if you watch The Real Housewives of Orange County online, you can do the same.

The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 Episode 6 Recap: Frenemy of the State

Were the women able to move on from Shannon’s failed party on The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 Episode 6 Monday?

Let’s just say some things are easier said than done.

If you watch The Real Housewives of Orange County online, you know the lovely ladies have a hard time moving on from most anything.

Well, The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 Episode 6 proved more the rule than the exception, to the surprise of nobody.

Nobody.

Obviously, every episode begins with a rehashing of what went on the previous week, both to kill time and because they just love gossip.

In this case it was actually probably worth it, given the drunken party fight on the prior episode, so no one can accuse the show of filler.

Kelly Dodd and Shannon Beador met up to break down the incident and see if they could let it go after everything they had been through.

Verdict?

“You just have to be the bigger person and just let it go,” Kelly was told by her mother Bobbi, who added simply, “Try to be nice.”

“People respond more to niceness than they do to people who are negative and mean. Maybe you just need to give Shannon a chance.”

“Maybe you just have to get to know her,” she urged her reeling daughter. “You have to forgive in order to forget, so, there you go.”

There you go.

Kelly eventually took her mother’s advice to be cordial and move on, but not before a back and forth over whether or not she was set up.

(She totes was.)

Anyway, Meghan King Edmonds continued to go through IVF and husband Jimmy continued to be annoyed that he even had to talk about it.

Seriously, the guy cannot be less interested in what she’s having done to her body in order to have his baby. It’s a little bizarre, no?

She went to Washington, D.C. with Heather Dubrow and spoke about cancer, while Tamra Judge practiced for her upcoming competition.

Vicki Gunvalson had a mild panic attack by Vicki standards after her grandson locked himself in the car, but besides that, she was great.

Really.

The O.G. of the O.C. even reflected on her breakup with Brooks Ayers by saying that it’s been a blessing – not in disguise, just a blessing.

“The best part about Brooks and I ending our relationship is I have my daughter back 100 percent,” Vicki said in a Bravo camera confessional.

“If I had stayed with Brooks, Briana would have never move back to the OC. Now that he’s gone, I’ve got my family back. Thank god!”

#blessed.

The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 Episode 5 Recap: Boogie Fights

On The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 Episode 5 last night, Heather Dubrow cornered Terry about his parenting abilities.

Vicki, meanwhile, struggled to balance her life.

Watch The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 Episode 5 Online

The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 Episode 5 began at Shannon’s party, with Kelly Dodd peacing out and yelling at David:

“No wonder you cheated on your wife!”

Yes, it was that kinda night in the OC.

Shannon and David Beador have been through a hell of a lot, as you know if you watch The Real Housewives of Orange County online.

Despite Kelly’s low blow, they seem to be doing better lately, however. For all the drama surrounding them, they’re on the right track.

Speaking of marital issues, Heather’s husband, Terry Dubrow, was accused by his better half of prioritizing work over his kids and wife.

He admitted, “I’m a really lousy father right now.”

“You’re not a lousy father,” she countered.

However, “You’re just not around much.”

“Isn’t that the same thing?” he asked. 

A good question by any measure.

Meghan’s issues with husband Jimmy Edmonds, who has been absent from her IVF treatments, are somewhat similar in some respects.

She and Tamra Barney Judge talked about Vicki Gunvalson, and Tamra said that she was ready to be friends with the OC’s OG again.

That could’ve set a positive tone for the night, but as the party progressed, Vicki and Kelly, in particular, got more and more belligerent.

Kelly didn’t like that she was being talked about, Shannon jumped in,  Kelly turned her focus to her, and a fight between them broke out.

Seeing that her friend Vicki was being attacked, again, was what put Kelly over the edge, leading to her line about David Beador cheating.

Vicki whipped out her phone as she stormed out of the house, saying, “I’m calling [Brooks Ayers]. Brooks put me in this goddamn situation.”

Indeed, she left her longtime, shady former boyfriend a nasty voicemail detailing exactly how his lies about having cancer ruined her life.

Sure, blame the cancer-embellishing messenger.

The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 Episode 4 Recap: Divine Intervention

Vicki was on the warpath again last night on The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 Episode 4, with Shannon in her crosshairs.

If you watch The Real Housewives of Orange County online, you know that’s been theme of the season so far on the Bravo flagship:

Can Vicki regain her place in the ladies’ good graces?

Does she want that? Do they? What’s her endgame?

Well, the Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 Episode 4 picked up at the beach party where the previous installment left off.

Vicki Gunvalson’s excuses for the Brooks Ayers cancer drama were front and center, with her goal of talking to each of the wives individually.

Target number one? Shannon Beador.

“You guys were right, and I was wrong,” Vicki said, though the skeptical Shannon said Ayers was lying about his cancer from the start.

How could Vicki not know?

Not unlike her conversations with Heather Dubrow and Tamra Barney, Vicki failed to gain much closure, and ended up in tears. So it goes.

Shannon says she doesn’t think the two could be friends again; Meghan King Edmonds, conversely, has plenty of friends to go around.

Heather Dubrow and Kelly Dodd, who both had kids via IVF, helped Meghan with the shots she has to take in order to begin the process.

When Vicki asked Brooks critic Meghan King Edmonds if they could be friends again, however, she replied that they were never friends.

Kelly felt bad for her after awhile, saying:

“I’ve been ganged up [on] by girls many times in my life, and when I see someone doing that to somebody else, I want to protect that person!”

The real crazy part of this episode, however, involved Tamra Barney’s adult son Ryan Vieth, who was once engaged to Sarah Rodriguez.

Tamra was on his case to make things right with her, as she’s the mother of his child, and for Ryan, this has been an ongoing dilemma.

Meanwhile, Vicki pulled over at a gas station to call 911 when she realized she couldn’t drive daughter Briana to the hospital fast enough.

Who did she run into there? Sarah Rodriguez!

Sarah, naturally, offered to go to Vicki’s place to watch Briana’s kids at the same time Vicki was texting Tamra about what was going on.

Tamra insisted that it was divine intervention that landed Sarah in Vicki’s path that day she was helping Briana with her difficulty breathing.

(It was later revealed that Briana’s lymph nodes were swollen so much they were pushing on her lungs, causing her problems breathing.)

When Tamra asked Sarah if she would get back together with Ryan, the latter responded that he was the one making that so challenging.

The two subplots here are that Tamra and Vicki are on good terms again – or at least called a true over this whole incident – and this:

Why is Briana even in California? Did Vicki force her to move away from her husband, Ryan, who was still stationed by the Army in Oklahoma?

Tamra and Shannon gossiped that perhaps promising her a free house and around the clock help with her medical care did the trick.

Shannon then said she planned on inviting Vicki to her upcoming party via email, while still making it clear he did not want a friendship.

Tamra chastised her friend for that “passive-aggressive” and “back-handed” idea and suggested she forgive and forget with Gunvalson.

Whoa there. That’s too level-headed for Bravo.

Vicki’s daughter’s return was a focal point on The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 11 Episode 3, but was it a happy homecoming?

Meanwhile, Meghan King Edmonds begun IVF shots as part of her efforts to get pregnant, but had to confront a huge fear in the process. 

Also, newcomer Kelly Dodd hosted a beach party, which was – of course – much more than that, because of what the gathering entailed.

This forced Vicki and Tamra to get together and hash it out.

It meaning everything. The feud to end all RHOC feuds.

Were they able to put it behind them? We know Vicki thinks she’s the victim, and Tamra feels Brooks is the worst person to ever live.

Could they find common ground to get past this, though?

The time has come to find out, and there’s only one way to do so, and that’s to watch The Real Housewives of Orange County online.

See the drama from start to finish now, but remember:

No matter where you are in life, or what your background is, there simply ain’t no party like an OC party, and an OC party don’t stop.

Zero idea what that means, but we can see Tamra saying it.

Danielle Brooks: Orange Is the New Black Star SHADED by Flight Staff

When you star in a wildly popular TV series and an acclaimed Broadway musical but airline staff still make covertly racist comments…

Yeah. Danielle Brooks has to deal with that.

Brooks, who plays fan favorite Tasha “Taystee” Jefferson on the Netflix hit show Orange Is the New Black, was offended by a comment flight staff made to her while boarding an airplane.

The actress took to Twitter recently to vent her frustrations.

“I hate when gate agents look at me like I’ve never flown first class and say ‘You’re in first class, lucky you!"” she wrote.

“Really tho,” she added.

The implication, of course, was that the gate agent assumed she was poor folk and must’ve just gotten lucky to fly first class by, I dunno, winning some sort of contest or something.

While she didn’t specifically point to racism, the subtext seemed clear, and was not lost on her followers.

“Ew casual racism??? Go off girl,” wrote one fan.

“Next time just reply, ‘They pay me enough per episode,"” commented one woman.

A third user recommended she clap back with humor and snark.

“Tell them it’s their lucky day too cause first month of Netflix is free so they can join,” the user suggested.

Netflix released the fourth season of Orange is the New Black last month and fans have been binging the show since.

This season may even be the series’ best season yet, say some critics, and in no small part due to Brooks’ talent and contributions.

Brooks is currently playing Sofia in The Color Purple on Broadway, a role for which she earned a nomination for Best Performance by an Actress in a Featured Role in a Musical.

Tamra Judge: It"s Time For Vicki Gunvalson To Leave The Real Housewives of Orange County

Their relationship has never been a steady one.

Right now, it seems that the friendship between The Real Housewives of Orange County‘s Tamra Judge and Vicki Gunvalson is nonexistent.

Judge was brutally honest about her feeling towards Gunvalson on SiriusXM’s Dirty, Sexy, Funny with Jenny McCarthy.

While Guvalson, who was involved in ex-boyfriend Brooks Ayers’ fabricated cancer storyline last season, is trying to make amends with her co-stars, Judge is over it.

“I’ve given up on trying to keep away from Brooks,” Judge said.

“I now think they are soulmates. They’re a match made in heaven.”

McCarthy asked if it was because both Gunvalson and Ayers are “both screwed up,” and Judge said plainly, “yeah!”

And while Judge admits that falling for someone can cloud your judgment, she doesn’t buy it when it comes to Ayers.

“I do believe — there’s a lot of years I wanted somebody in my life but you don’t want a d*****bag.

“But if somebody’s d*****y that’s like ‘ew.’ That’s a turn off. That’s not attractive to me.”

Judge believes Gunvalson made her bed, and now she has to lay in it.

“You hang out with dogs, you get fleas,” Judge insisted. “Maybe she needs a flea collar.” 

This season doesn’t bring closure for the two women, from what Judge told McCarthy.

“I took her back this year, accepted her apology — well her half-a** apology — forgave the past and tried to move on only to be burned again and she was behind my back with a machete this time.” “I’m burned,” Judge said, not getting into specifics.

“I said ‘you know what? One more thing and I’m done.’

“It hurts my feelings because we’ve been friends on and off for 10 years. So we’ve gone through a lot together,” she said.

“We’ve gone through our kids getting married — well my son’s not married but he has a kid so we’ll say he’s married. Grandmas and health concerns and divorces and all that stuff so we have a lot of history.”

Judge then delivered a blow to her old friend.

“I think that she’s caught up in the show and she doesn’t even know what her reality is anymore,” she said. “When you create a storyline, that’s when it’s time for you to go. So the O-G may need to G-O.”
