Vicki Gunvalson isn’t afraid to speak her mind on who she would want to cut from the current cast of The Real Housewives of Orange County.
“I would definitely get rid of Tamra [Judge],” Gunvalson, 62, said on the Thursday, November 7, episode of the “Jeff Lewis Live” show. “I think enough is enough with this throwing napkins and FBI hats and going to people’s junk. … She knows I’ve felt that way. It’s not because I’m not on and she is, I just think enough is enough.”
Gunvalson noted that “everybody” she speaks with thinks it’s “too much” with her former bestie Judge, 57. “She’s always in people’s stuff but she doesn’t want anybody in her stuff,” Gunvalson said.
The OG housewife, who left the show in season 13 in 2018 but has returned as an occasional guest star, added that she likes “everybody” on the show, noting that she didn’t want to say more names because she would then have to field calls from the cast members.
“But I think a change needs to happen, which is what they did with Katie [Ginella] and Jenn [Pedranti],” she said. “I think the casting did good with that.” (Ginella, 40, joined RHOC in season 18, while Pedranti, 47, had been cast the season prior.)
As for veteran Heather Dubrow — who returned to the cast in 2021’s season 16 after five years away — Gunvalso says she likes her “as a human,” but wonders why she’s still on the show.
“Most people in this life span that we’re in, we do it for the money and the fame and for notoriety and such. She’s got all that,” Gunvsalson said. “I don’t understand it. I love Heather, I think she’s great. I love Dr. [Terry] Dubrow. I don’t understand why she’s doing it. Enough is enough.”
Gunvalson shared that she would also “get rid” of Heather, 55, calling it “good” if she wanted to pursue The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Gunvalson also added that she would “absolutely” want Alexis Bellino to be removed from the show as well.
Have Real Housewives of Orange County stars Tamra Judge and Vicki Gunvalson called it quits on their friendship? It certainly seems that way as they trade jabs on social media. “I felt like I just took the biggest dump of my life,” Judge, 56, wrote via X (formerly Twitter) on Sunday, January 7. “So refreshed. […]
“I think she’s toxic. I think she’s a nightmare,” Gunvalson said of Bellino, 47, who was a friend of the Housewives during season 18. (Bellino was cast as a full-time Housewife for seasons 5 through 8 before returning for the most recent season, where she butted heads with Shannon Beador due to her relationship with Beador’s ex, John Janssen.)
The Real Housewives of Orange County Reunion: Part One episode airs on Bravo Thursday at 9 p.m. ET., with Part Two and Part Three airing the following two weeks.
