You look hot! ...meet the well-to-do. We finished building this dream house. $55 million. ♪ Original California royalty ♪ I can't be the only woman in Orange County that doesn't work out. If I could drive my car to the mailbox, I would. That's me, Katie, the newest OC housewife. I'm still getting to know some of these sophisticated SoCal beauties... [screaming] - [teeth chattering] - [all grunting] ...but in the short time I've been here, I've learned gossip reigns supreme. I heard that you had an affair. You seem very excited about talking about this. I'm not excited. Well, there's no paparazzi at Disneyland. It's time to fill you in on all the back-biting... I'd watch it, Tamra. What, you wanna ----in' tell me to watch it? She had a lot of crappy things to say about you guys. ...mud-slinging... She told Emily she looks like a Snuffleupagus. That is bullsh--. I never said that. ...and heartfelt insanity... Aah! Oh, God. [all cheering] ...that could only be... [bleep] you! [bleep] you! [bleep] you! - That's not who we are. - This is who we are. Oh, dear. ...The Real Housewives of Orange County... - Break! - The brake isn't working. Then and Now. ♪♪♪♪ I've been getting to know this fabulous group of women. - Hi, Katie. - Nice to meet you. And so far, this year has been one wild ride. [all screaming] But unfortunately for Shannon, her ride began with a cold dose of reality. On the night of the DUI, I drove to John's house. He said, "Don't get in your car." But I revved up the engine, so he could know how mad I was, and I lost control of the car. After years of confrontations... You're a ----ing liar, and you're a drunk. You are, Tamra. ...and accusations... You said David wants me to stop drinking. - I said, "Then stop drinking." - You are crossing a line. Shannon is facing the consequences of her actions. So, you were sentenced to three years of probation. I need to get a car, and get a breathalyzer put in it. So sorry. I'm humiliated. Or is she? He bumped into Shannon, and she had, like, a full shopping cart full of booze. She told me she has a maximum of two drinks. Per hour? But Shannon's relationship with alcohol hasn't been her only struggle. In fact, her relationship with long time boyfriend, John... My boyfriend and I just had our three-year mark. ...took a turn that no one saw coming, especially Shannon. The last time I talked to John was about ten days after my DUI. He called me and said, "I'm cutting ties with you. "You've ruined my life." Six weeks later, he started dating Alexis Bellino. Yep, that Alexis Bellino. Okay, next outfit. Remember her? She made quite the impression back in the day. I'm not getting my nose bump done because of my sinuses. Deal with your own patients, and leave me alone. I really don't like Alexis. Probably not gonna ever like her. Why would you trust a girl that has tits bigger than her head? I'm not saying you're a bad girl, and I don't like you, da-da-da-da. What I'm saying is, you come off this way to people. You tend to look very materialistic. Fortunately, Heather and Alexis were able to leave the past in the past. Hello! She needs friends right now, and I wanna provide that for her. But Shannon's wounds from her breakup are still fresh. For him to be publicly displaying his relationship right now, so quickly after we ended things, it's hurtful. And some say Alexis is after more than just Shannon's man. What the heck? Did you steal Archie from Shannon, too? First, her boyfriend, now her dog. Now the dog, is this really Archie? No, I adopted him. As if watching your ex hook up with a frenemy isn't tough enough... - Hi! - Hi, sweetheart. - [laughs] I love you. Mwah! - I love you. ...imagine what it feels like getting kicked in the wallet when you're already down. John Janssen is saying that I owe him $75,000, and if I don't pay him, he's gonna sue me. Why does Shannon owe money? A facelift and a loan. I have the wire transfers right here, if anyone would like to see this. Un- ----ing-believable. Such a slap in the face to me. But it isn't just Alexis who has beef with Shannon. I've heard that Tamra Judge has been throwing all kinds of shade at Shannon lately. Take a beat. Try to figure out what's going on in your life. Stop drinking. She could've killed herself. She could've killed her ----ing dog. - You're not a good person. - Okay. All right. You've done horrible things to me. But it wasn't that long ago... Oh, there she is. Speaking of the devil! Let's light it up! ...that Tamra, Shannon, and original housewife, Vicki, were the best of friends. [all laughing] By far the best memories I have are with Vicki and Tamra. I mean, some of them may be blurry. I love that, Tamra. I love that. But that's what girlfriends are for. Let's go, bitches. They even created a three-woman show, The Tres Amigas. We did skits. We had audience participation. Just kind of a variety show. And I was excited about where we could go. But all that changed after Shannon's DUI. I saw Shannon. She said, Tres Amigas, you're out. Yeah, I'm out. She was, like, surprised after Shannon's DUI. She was still drinking. At least Shannon can count on her ride-or-die, Vicki, to have her back. I'm here for you. I love Shannon. You know, sometimes, you just click with people, sometimes you don't. I click with her. We just get each other. Vicki's loyalty to Shannon remains intact. I told you from day one, it wasn't you, it was her. That girl needs a hug, and I'm gonna be there for her. She needs help. But now Tamra has a new BFF, Alexis. Tamra's here! Even though these two women used to go at it. In what ----ing world am I driving to Alexis Bellino's house? Times have changed. I feel like the Alexis I knew, you know, ten years ago, is not the Alexis I know today. - Butt out. - Why do you call-- Butt out! You get-- [bleep] you get the [bleep] out! And now I enjoy being around her. And in case you forgot, it was Tamra who gave Alexis an unusual nickname, that just won't go away. You are psychotic, Jesus Jugs. Jesus Jugs? I'm so thankful for our friendship now. And she pegged them Jesus Jugs. Thank you very much. They are beautiful, aren't they? Don't get too close to Jesus Jugs. [laughter] Maybe Jesus Jugs should have taken the wheel before all hell broke loose. You've been doing nothing but defaming me. - Defaming you? - I caught-- I don't say things that are not true. - You did. - No, I didn't. - You did, actually. - No, I didn't. - You give people-- - I didn't. Okay. Have I drove my car into a house? Sorry. Oh, my God. ♪♪♪♪ Is she coming back or not? ♪♪♪ [all screaming] We're catching up on all things Orange County. I think I just sh-- myself. Between the scandals... Do you worry there might be red flags in the relationship? Yeah, if Ryan were to [bleep] up. - Hasn't he already ----ed up? - Uh, no. ...and the battles... Just because you say something emphatically doesn't make it true. Just because you do this with your ----ing hands doesn't make it true, either! Some might say the OC housewives are always on the attack. Read between the ----ing lines, mother----er. But the truth is, this is a fun and fabulous group of friends. [all cheering] [laughing] Losing circulation! We laugh together. - [all laughing] - Stop it. We cry together. I don't think it's fair to him. There's a lot going on. I miss my best friend. And we're always there for each other. You're so impressive as just a woman and a human. I want you to wake up. And I want you to say, I am a badass boss bitch. Well... I never thought this day would be here. ...most of the time. Say what you wanna ----ing say. I'm not gonna speak about it anymore. So please don't speak to me anymore. Never talk about my children again. My children! And this year, with Tamra and Shannon constantly at odds, it was only natural that Shannon would turn to Emily. Is this the first time you ever touched a boob? You'll bend at the waist, over. That's what you do when you get a spray tan. Oh, my God. You're like, spread-eagle to the boat. One of the few people who consistently has Shannon's back. Do you truly believe she doesn't have a drinking problem? You know what? Honestly, I think she's changed. I'm sorry. I do think so. I want for you to have some kind of resolution. 'Cause it'll be good for your heart. Emily Simpson has never been afraid to tell it like it is. Ah! - Yeah. - Emily. Emily has a large part in stirring things up. Do you get jealous of Gina's relationship with Heather? She hears something, and then she just repeats it. Shannon brought up, like, you have, like, a big, inflated head, and that you need to put, like, a pin in it. Emily is totally a sh-- stirrer. Or is she just a truth-teller? You know, you could really look at it either way. I think I instigated all of it. If there wasn't so much sh--, I wouldn't have anything to stir. - I'm going. - She has a loud personality... What is that? Oh, my God! Oh, my gosh! Who did that? Who put my chair in the sand? ...and even louder arguments. But just own it. Just own it. I could've sat there and talked about how you're so uneducated. All right, let's walk away. And this year, Emily is focusing all that red-hot energy on herself. My goodness. Good thing I lost weight. I couldn't fit through here last year. Over the course of about a year, I've lost 40 pounds, which was a combination of things. It was a little bit of Ozempic. It was some liposuction in my arms, and it was busting my ass in the gym. Yep, Emily's worked very hard. Put the fanny out. It's not out at all? And it shows, in both her looks and her attitude. I want to like her for her. You can't say that and bring receipts. It's like her and Tamra do this thing where they're like, "Who could be a bigger bitch? I could be a bigger bitch." And that is not my friend. I don't want to see you be the grand bitch. I've been aggressive since the day you met me. I think that you need to work on that. I am 48 years old. What do you want me to ----ing do? To be fair, Emily hasn't been aggressive towards me yet. But then again, I'm just the new girl. - Hi! - Hi. - Hi. - Hi. Oh, my gosh. My idea of exercise? My husband... late night activities. Cheers! - And from the jump... - Okay, go! ...it was clear that if I was going to fit in to this tight-knit circle... - [whistle blows] - Penalty! You just pull the tag. You don't pull the whole belt. ...I had to find my footing, and fast. - Hi! - Hi! Heather, this is Kate. - Good to finally meet you. - We almost met, - at Sutton's house. - We did. - Have you met Heather? - I have. - And what was your opinion? - Um... There's been a couple things - that have happened. - Already? I went to your Christmas party. - Yeah. - And Heather was in front of me, and she turned around and went like this. Nuh-uh. Then turned around and said nothing to me. I wouldn't go up against Heather. - You gon' get ate. - [laughing] ♪♪♪♪ Happy girl! - Enjoy the Dom. - Oh, my God. - Can we crack in? - Yes. It wasn't long before I found myself in the middle of a long-running rumor. You know Heather and the paparazzi photos? Oh, at the Disneyland? Teddi Mellencamp, she went in hard about your "staged" paparazzi pictures. Are you literally accusing me of this? No, I'm-- It's suspicious. Think whatever you want, Tamra. A friend of mine runs all the paparazzi photos. She called my friend and said, "I'm gonna be here." You have proof that Heather Dubrow alerted the paparazzi - that she's gonna be at Disney? - I have a screenshot of it. I know I stepped on Heather's toes. But I didn't mean to take her whole foot off. I came into this group like, "I know you lied." I have never called paparazzi in my life. You never alerted them. No, I have never done that. Coming into this group. I knew you lied. - I didn't lie. - So he lied. I don't know who you're talking about. - Oh, sh--. - Just duck and cover. When you come into a friend group, what would be really great is to make friends. I'm not digging up things on Katie. Katie's digging up things on me. I wanted to see if there's anything that you have against me. - I don't even know you, Katie. - Correct. But now I don't know that I want to. [gasping] ♪♪♪ since moving to the OC is thatd these ladies love to kick up their heels... - [exclaiming] - ...and have some fun. Here, Tamra! Cabo San Lucas! - Let's go to Mexico! - I love it. But they can't party and vacate all their problems away. Yeah, walk away. That's all you know how to do. - [bleep] you guys! - Because wherever they go, their issues always seem to follow. ----ing state your facts. You talk sh-- about me behind my back! Oh, sh--. I'm actually in awe of how these women have perfected the art of breaking up... Sorry that I feel good about myself. Gina, you're a ----ing asshole. - ...and making up. - I love you, Gina. And I don't wanna fight with you. - This is good. - I don't either. I hate this. - They apologize... - And I'm sorry about that. I appreciate that. I really don't know what I've done to her. All I can do is say I'm sorry. ...and apologize... I should never have said anything in the press, and I sincerely apologize. I never wanted to hurt you. ...and then apologize some more. I was, like, on an apology tour. - Well, I'm sorry. - Sorry. - Sorry. - I'm sorry. - I'm sorry. - I'm so sorry. [overlapping apologies] I'm just gonna blanket apology the world at this point. I'm just going to be sorry. Until I'm not. But let's get real. These ladies can never stay drama-free. You don't think that affects my children? You don't trust me. That's what the issue is. And Gina made that clear... Rest in peace? Well, we just hope you come back. ...when I felt she turned her back on me in favor of Miss Fancy Pants herself... That's too far to run. ...Heather Dubrow. I feel like I felt abandoned by you a little bit. So now Gina has not only lost my trust... I probably should've had Heather's back more. What's upsetting to me is, why didn't you tell me in December? ...she's lost Heather's trust as well. I feel betrayed by you, and I'm having a really hard time. It's a shame, because there was a time when Heather and Gina were total BFFs. As Gina would say, - "I want all the things!" - I want all the things! I love Heather unleashed on the streets of New York. - She's everything! - [both laughing] They were so close, it made some of the other ladies jealous. Multiple people have said Gina thinks that you're jealous - of my friendship with Heather. - I never said that. That I said, yes. The truth is, Heather has the glamorous lifestyle that Orange County dreams are made of. I don't know if I've ever popped anything this big before. No offense, dear. [all exclaiming] But chasing that lifestyle can get you in over your head, fast. And this year, Jenn Pedranti found that out the hard way. - Hi! - Hi! Jenn, we're getting you on OnlyFans. Oh, my God. She doesn't have any money right now! A girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do. Now, to be fair, Jenn has a lot on her plate. You're going through chaos right now. A messy divorce... You walked away from your marriage. I'm sorry! This is why I can't do this. We have made very little progress in my divorce. Unfortunately, it's taking Will a long time to turn in financials. ...a growing relationship with a man some of us have had a hard time trusting. Does he talk about getting married? Mm-hmm. Because of Ryan's past-- Well, you should be scared a little bit. - Why? - Ryan has quite a reputation. And after a long battle to earn Gina's friendship and trust... I hate that I am such a trigger for you. Jenn did not destroy her family. No, and I should never have said that. And it is okay to shift the family dynamic. Thank you for saying that. This year, it all came crumbling down like a house of cards. Gina helped me get into the perfect house. It's big enough for my family. But now we are being evicted. I went out of my way to help you, and you burnt me. And the fact that you'll sit there, Jenn, and you really will have this attitude is pathetic. Wake up, Jenn. You're not paying your rent. You're getting your hair and makeup done. I've lost respect for Jenn. Her inability to even see how this has affected me has told me everything that I need to know about her, which is mostly that she's stupid. - She's a joke. - I'm a ----ing joke? You're a joke. ♪♪♪♪ My journey with the OC Housewives has only just begun. - Okay. Hi! - Hi! And one thing I've learned is that despite all the drama... You told Heather me and Emily can't be trusted. Here's what I'm gonna tell you, Gina: shoot the ----ing messenger. ...we always find a way to support one another through difficult times. Whatever you need, we will be there for you. - Yes. - You don't understand how overwhelmed I am with love right now. - Like, you guys are so kind. - I know. But I still have so many questions. I'm having a party on Wednesday. I would like for you and Vicki to come. Will Tamra and Shannon's temporary truce really last? I don't wanna make things worse. - Okay. Let's not make it worse. - And I do apologize for yelling at you. Next time let's get the boxing gloves on. Does Jenn have a plan to put her financial troubles behind her? - We got this. - What does Ryan do? Like, for a living? Like, what does he do? Well, nothing now. I feel like he just sits around and, like, plays in the sunshine. He just kind of, um, lives a dream life. - I always tell him. - [laughs] That's nice. My fear is that things are not gonna work out with her and Ryan, and what does she have? She doesn't have anything. You can't put your head - down again, Jenn. - I can't. And exactly how far will Alexis go to protect her new man? I love you. Mwah. Shannon has ruined John's reputation. Do you think you'll stop her? Do I need to pull out the videos? - Videos of what? - A lot. - It will ruin her life. - He has videos of her the night of her DUI. I am literally gonna lose it right now. The gloves are off. Shannon's lied, and all I know is truth prevails. We have the footage. We have the ----ing footage! She's such a piece of sh--! I think I feel like I'm gonna throw up. [sobs] Wanna know what happens next? - You should tell me. - Oh, my God! Check out this sneak peek at what's ahead. Whoo-hoo! For the first time in my life, I have happiness that I've never had, and I'm safe.... [echoing] - Ask her about the FBI. - [groans] Oh, no. This is the biggest scandal out there. He could go to prison. Have you talked about him being a bookie? You better ----ing shut your mouth. Why? Is he gonna put a hit on me? Nobody knows who the real Ryan is. And I feel really pretty. Yeah. Still to come this season on The Real Housewives of Orange County... [whooping] [all exclaiming] - Move it, chubby! - [whimpers] Well, this is like when I knead meatballs. You shared meatballs with Shannon. You also shared sauce. "Hello, Alexis. I am hosting a trip to Europe, - "and you are not invited." - [exclaims] Hold on. Why? Hello, London! [British accent] Spot of tea? Get a good profile. Why, Shannon? Why? - Knock, knock. - Wanna give me a hug? - No. - Oh, okay. Ryan bashed Tamra and Eddie. The guy is a scumbag. - He's such a baby bitch. - You're a bitch! Are you really speaking like this? Gina hung you out to dry. So you think they're calling me a liar? You are a liar! This is bullsh--. ----ing bitch. What? John Janssen just showed up. - Hi. - Are you kidding me right now? Respect my ----ing relationship. This guy is a piece of sh--. [bleep]. Her hate comes from jealousy and insecurity. - Leave my family alone. - Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. - No! - Then I'm ----ing out. - Shannon Beador! - I'll take an Uber. You know what? Alexis Bellino is perfect for John Janssen. Passive aggressive. That was aggressive aggressive. Nothing passive about that one.
