Vicki Gunvalson was recently spotted grabbing lunch with Tamra Judge and Shannon Beador. While no cameras could been seen in the photos, eyewitnesses insist the Bravo cameras were rolling at the event.
While the OG of the OC hasn’t officially been asked back to the Real Housewives of Orange County she will be appearing in the upcoming 17th season of the show, according to Radar Online.
A source told the gossip outlet that Vicki was brought in to film the lunch seen with Tamra and Shannon to shake up a “slow” season.
It’s no secret that the Tres Amigas fell apart after Vicki and Tamra departed the OC Housewives franchise in January 2020. Soon major tension bubbled up between the women as Tamra and Vicki claimed Shannon ditched them once they were off the show.
“As soon as we’re not on the show anymore, she just doesn’t have any time for us anymore and it really just kind of hurts my feelings,” Tamra claimed in 2020, per Radar. “It came to a point where me and Vicki really went through some hard times, when neither one of us were gonna go back to the show, we really went through, what is our identity? Who are we? … I just kind of felt like I never got that, like, ‘How are you doing? How are you feeling?’ kind of thing.”
However, Shannon denied the claims.
“I dispute what they’ve said. I am not the person to sink down to a level to argue with people — that I consider close friends — in the press or on social media. That’s not who I am, that’s not what I’m made of, so I just feel like I have a little bit more decorum than they do. I don’t wanna engage with them, except to say that the things that they’ve been saying, especially Tamra, it’s a laundry list of things that aren’t true,” Shannon clapped back in a statement.
RHOC is set to return for season 17 in early 2023.
