Jennifer Pedranti Claps Back At Emily Simpson On The RHOC Reunion Reminding Emily That Her Lifestyle Is Funded By Her In-Laws 

Jennifer Pedranti destroyed co-star Emily Simpson on part one of the Real Housewives of Orange County reunion episode. 

On the season finale of RHOC, we saw that Jenn Pedranti’s fiancee Ryan Boyajian close friend, Matthew Bower ran an illegal bookmaking company. During the reunion, Real Housewives of Orange County star Emily Simpson who is not a practicing lawyer continued to talk on Ryan’s case explaining Ryan’s involvement.

Ryan has received full immunity but Emily Simpson wasn’t buying it. After Emily continued to talk on Ryan’s case, Shannon Beador got involved backing Jenn Pedranti.

That’s when Emily told the cast that Jenn’s story is the opposite of everything that she read with Jenn responding, “I’ve read your in-laws fund your whole life,” instantly silencing Emily Simpson.

In 2019, Emily Simpson had appeared on Watch What Happens Live and told Andy Cohen that her husband Shane’s parents are the ones funding their lavish lifestyle. Shane also has allegedly been unemployed for years. During the time Shane was studying for the bar exam, Emily admitted Shane’s parents were “helping them financially.”

A reddit user also spoke about Emily’s house in a thread about Emily’s finances saying, “The home they live in was bought by Shane’s parents. Sometime later, his parents transferred partial ownership interest to Shane’s name only with the remaining ownership interest staying with his.”

What’s surprising with this is Emily has come after Jenn Pedranti time and time again over Ryan helping her financially when Emily also receives help financially.

Thoughts on part one of the Real Housewives of Orange County reunion?

Part 2 of the Real Housewives of Orange County Season 18 Reunion special airs Thursday, November 14 at 8 PM ET on Bravo.

Part One was like Round One of the Hagler/Hearns fight. Damn.

And Emily thought she did something with the “ stand by your man” comment . Um yeah she’s in a relationship you ass . Doesn’t she stand by Shane ? Idk why she thought that was something to pick on? Every woman on that stage stands by who they are with . And we’ve seen them stand by them fight with women, sue women etc hell Gina is bff s with Matt after domestic violence and divorce so … there’s that

So, Emily acts one way but reality is another. Isn't this true about each and every one of these housewives?

Why, yes. Yes, it is.

Emily is such an annoying busybody know-it-all, and her aggressive orneriness (along with Gina's) is not a good look. I get a sense that both of are just trying to be relevant at anyone else's expense. I wouldn't miss either of them.
Champagne Hangover November 9, 2024 - 10:08 am
I like Emily and Gina has grown on me, but let’s get real, we never really miss ANY of the broads like we think we would/will when they get the axe. And when or if we do it’s only after enough time has passed to create nostalgia OR the franchise in question has devolved into such a crap fest that we look to anyone or anything to save it. The one exception is when Bravo COMPLETELY and UTTERLY sh*t the bed ? ? with the NY reboot! <— Even Amber Heard be like… https://media4.giphy.com/media/Azde2TIzaNiak/giphy-downsized-small.mp4
AnEnigmaWrappedInSnark November 9, 2024 - 3:13 pm
The RHONY we loved (sans Ebony K. Nobody) final season average ratings averaged mid 800K's. The reboot debuted at 600K-ish, and then steadily dropped. The second season is hanging on for dear life in the low 200K's! The jury is out ... the reboot is an undeniable flop. Asswipe Cohen is never going to admit it, but sooner or later he's going to HAVE to at least acknowledge it. However; I do have a solution. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/e58fb985b2c7812cf5cdb17302338a9b8639cb31d55895ca5e2467db4d1ea5be.jpg

It wouldn’t surprise me if Andy had to swallow his pride and do just that. Otherwise, kill the franchise altogether? ???? I just wonder if ratings even matter anymore? ?
AnEnigmaWrappedInSnark November 9, 2024 - 6:32 pm
IKR? RHONY's ratings are even worse than Dubai's (which they just killed). BTW, word on the dirty crime filled streets of NYC is that Andy is more used to swallowing ... AT Pride.

Gina has grown on me somewhat but Emily's arrogance is just irritating.
Champagne Hangover November 9, 2024 - 2:34 pm
In Emily’s defense, she drowning in a sea of bimbos and drunks. The only person she has in that group who even comes close to matching her intellect is Heather Dubrow and I defy you to find a more insufferable creature. So, I cut Emily a little slack. ? Emily is the quintessential smart girl who always wanted to be the pretty girl instead. I heard some dude say something to this effect about women: ‘tell the smart ones how pretty they are, the pretty ones how smart they are, and you’ll never have to worry about getting laid’. It’s only offensive cuz it’s true! ? Oh Emily…beauty fades, dumb is forever. ? Anyway, that’s my take on Emily…
michers November 9, 2024 - 5:09 pm
LOL!! Her ass is white girl wasted a few times herself and girl gets obnoxious
Champagne Hangover November 9, 2024 - 5:37 pm
I know. She didn’t initially, though. She barely drank at all. She wants to be an ‘it’ girl now though, part of the ‘pretty girl’ brigade of drunks, but she’s not cut out for it. She’d be much happier being ok with being the smart girl and being as pretty as she is, ya know?
tinaB November 8, 2024 - 10:23 pm
Emily's eyes looked so tiny...did she plump up again? Thought it was interesting and snarky Cohen asked her if she is going to the gym less....thinking that was a serious dig/hint she's packed on weight....she looked seriously puffy
Champagne Hangover November 9, 2024 - 10:18 am
It may be too much filler. One of the things that can happen using filler as a sort of ‘liquid facelift’ is that if your injector is not careful, even just a wee bit heavy handed, it can (and often does) make your eyes look smaller. In Korea, they are FAR more conservative with their use of filler, but it remains SUCH a cash cow here I don’t know if the conservative use trend will EVER arrive on our shores. Less is more with filler and none is even better for most people ? but nonetheless…?
Dulcette November 9, 2024 - 11:00 am
I think the only reason Andy brought it up, was earlier in the season, Emily and her husband had a conversation about how obsessive she had become about going to the gym and how her husband didn't. I think Shane had concerns. Within the context of the season, the question made sense, but I can see how in the moment of the show it would sound so out of context and rude.
macaroni November 10, 2024 - 8:12 pm
Yeah but I don't think it was rude. It was true.

The “tiny eyes” award goes to Tammy Sued! This latest “procedure” sucked those black devil eyes further back into her skull. Hope it’s swelling and not what she’s stuck with cuz it’s eerily distracting… like horror movie creepy.

Shannon is way overfilled too. And she's gained weight. She really did look youthful this season but the filler and weight gain have undone that face lift. Her eyes are puffy too. I also noticed this in her confessionals which i think are taped after the season ends.

A handout is a handout (bills paid or not). When Emily acts as Judge 2.0 (not an attorney, unpracticed) then Emily has zero credibility to be two-faced or two-side in this storyline. Stick a turkey sandwich in that mouth and keep quiet. Jen is getting her voice.

Thank you . Agree . Now she’s the attorney of it all lol?!?! I can’t stand her ass with this
PjC November 9, 2024 - 5:45 pm
LOL. Exactly. . .Emily says, I feel you are holding back from me, maybe because I'm an attorney. (LOL, No?) An attorney for whom? Jen is standoffish because Emily has a BIG mouth--no other reason. Emily isn't that important or interesting on her own. Bring some better jeans, gurl. lol.

Jenn is a grifter. I’m sure her landlord(s) are THRILLED about her ‘voice’ though ??. And I’m sure when Ryan breaks Jenn’s heart once AGAIN (oh sorry…the first time they were on ‘a break’), her son (the one who would rather bunk it with his dad in a 1 br apartment than live with her) will also be THRILLED Jenn found her voice. ?
Zap It November 8, 2024 - 12:05 pm
Love that Emily finally got called out for living off her in-laws. The look on her face is priceless. She loves to act like she's self made by telling everyone she's an attorney when she hasn't practiced in years. She may have a law degree but that doesn't make her a "lawyer". I don't think her husband works either. This one definitely goes to Jenn. And to Emily's mother! She knows the real reason her daughter trashes her on TV all the time...because she's not rich and is therefore of little use to Miss Emily except for a story line. Yes, I said it so there!
Ryan November 8, 2024 - 3:30 pm
Has anyone noticed how much work Jenn has had on her face since filming this season? she looks so different.

AnEnigmaWrappedInSnark November 9, 2024 - 2:54 pm
Her "work" simply settled. The lips are a but much, but I think she looks great. More importantly, she's really come into her own this season. This is why I generally prefer they give each newbie a two season minimum.

She looks fabulous..
AnEnigmaWrappedInSnark November 11, 2024 - 3:03 pm
Jen comes across as a genuinely nice chick, and relatable (the opposite) of Tamra. It's an overused mantra, but jealousy probably does a play a part in Tamra's dislike of Jen.
Champagne Hangover November 8, 2024 - 10:23 am
Correct me if I’m wrong, BUT however it is that Emily receives her funding, it is, first and foremost, completely LEGAL ? and neither she nor Shane neglect to pay their bills with in in favor of Rolex watches and glam squads, thereby risking the very roof over their children’s heads. <— Neither she nor Shane have done THAT, correct? So, while Emily may have very well been better off shutting her gob about Jenn’s finances and maybe even deserved a little in context b*tch slap when she took it too far, this is still apples and oranges. And Emily is WELL within her right to clarify those all to salient points imo.
michers November 8, 2024 - 12:24 pm
I disagree slightly as it’s none of their business . Jen didn’t ask any of those heifers to pay her bills so they need to watch things like that . The show isn’t about them investigating each other or bullying . But I’m all about the verbal bitch slap lol
Champagne Hangover November 8, 2024 - 1:04 pm
I thought it all came to a head cuz Gina felt (understandably so) deceived and used by Jenn whom she vouched for on the rental from which Jenn got evicted for being a deadbeat. ? Already we got LEGAL issues with this one ? THEN it’s shady ass Ryan to the rescue with his sus AF money pot ?. Aw, HELL NAW! Emily may not be a practicing attorney but that doesn’t mean she never will be again, and Shane IS. As attorneys, they are bound by STRICT codes of ethics which includes even the *appearance* of impropriety. (It literally states that). So, yeah, I can see Emily wanting to distance herself from this shadiness for that reason alone (even tho not in a professional setting), but also not being enthused about being socially associated with a dead beat and her shady beaux, immunity or otherwise. IJS.
michers November 9, 2024 - 5:07 pm
I didn’t like rental situation however Gina as a professional should’ve handled that different . She allowed that to be a way for others to bash another cast member to which they had no right to . They had nothing else going on for a season ? Shit ain’t right lol
AnEnigmaWrappedInSnark November 10, 2024 - 3:00 pm
No one blames the agent for the going ons of their clients, financially or otherwise. The lessor runs the credit (and sometimes background) check on the lessee ... period. If Gina vouched for her personally, she made a rookie mistake. Similar was when Gina talked about her potential "$356K" commission on Elizabeth's house in PS they were staying in, failing to mention the four way split between the agents and their brokers.
macaroni November 10, 2024 - 8:16 pm
Thank you for the explanation for those who don't practice real estate. Most don't know this.
AnEnigmaWrappedInSnark November 10, 2024 - 9:52 pm
Not that I'm disparaging Gina ... she would have made $80-100K even with a 50/50 split with her broker, and she probably has a better deal that that.

True dat BUT it don’t say SQUAT in their contacts about their names having to be associated with a criminal element, I assure you.? You should not have to expect that or sit in silence about that ESPECIALLY if you have ANY cause for concern of how it may affect you, professionally or otherwise. I don’t blame Emily for BOTH wanting answers and creating any distance she sees fit until her concerns are addressed and/or her voice on record. Her name is associated with these two grifters (yeah, I said it) by means of the show. I don’t blame her wanting it on record, she ain’t havin’ it. IJS.

Champagne Hangover November 11, 2024 - 7:53 am
How so? Emily and Shane have legal income and ostensibly pay their bills with it. Jenn, an indisputable deadbeat, did not pay her bills (some of which were in violation of a previous agreement with her ex according to him), got EVICTED and had to be rescued by a sketchy dude whose coin AT LEAST deserves a side eye ? (and that’s being HELLA generous). IJS.
Zap It November 11, 2024 - 9:43 am
I don't think Shane works that much if at all. They live off his parents wealth which is why the house is in his name only ( I think I read that somewhere). I have no use for the deadbeat thing either. Okay, I understand that mothers can get into a financial mess when going through a divorce BUT I really didn't like her trying to justify it. If she said that she felt at least some regret for stiffing that landlord, I would likely feel differently. But she tried to justify skipping on that rent. ?
Champagne Hangover November 11, 2024 - 10:52 am
Yep, Jenn’s a grifter. Sorry not sorry. I don’t care one whit how anyone LEGALLY comes by their coin. As long as it’s legal, it’s none of my business. The way I see it is I can choose to get all salty about it or I can choose to acknowledge covetousness is a sin, be grateful for my own blessings and not worry about the fortunes of others. HOWEVER, your coin runs afoul of the law? You got some splanin’ to do. And I don’t much care how harsh that interrogation may be cuz you brought it on yourself. There’s plenty of room for mercy if there’s remorse, but when there’s not? Buh-bye. ?

It is hard to imagine Andy getting rid of her again, especially this soon. As Vicki and Gretchen recently said on V's podcast, Bravo loves that there is apparently no limit to the depths to which Tamra will crawl (with her nastiness).

I still think Tamra brings something so I don't want her to be fired but she definitely was on the wrong track this season.
Jshappyday November 8, 2024 - 9:57 am
Jenn is 100% correct about Emily being an enormous hypocrite to her and Gina. Emily judges Jenn for getting financial help from a finance, Ryan, and her father, while her and Shane have lived off the generational wealth of her in-laws since day 1 on the show. They purchased their home and much more allowing Emily to quit her job so Emily needs to stop as does Heather, as her partner helps her as does Ryan now!

Anyway the point for me is - why do grown women on cast worry so much about Jen’s finances and who is paying ? It’s literally no one’s business and it’s not part of being cast .When people all over world have one income households do they get bullied about it? What right is for Emily to hound about ? And really good for jen for that clap back because that was discussed her first couple seasons ; Shane’s fam is the golden goose ! Is it ok for Emily to not work and Shane’s peeps pay ?

She may have had some dance/ballet training ?. If not, it’s actually even more impressive because it’s sheer will, determination and quite successful emulation of a prima ballerina’s posture, rather than a second nature, autopilot that many dancers ultimately achieve.

I don’t like her personally BUT like her or not (and there are MANY who do, I’m just not among them), Heather embodies all a Housewife is SUPPOSED to be according to the original premise of the show. In addition to that what I DON’T like about Heather (which could fill a warehouse ?) is GREAT snarking material. So, I concede: Fancy Pants makes a great housewife…but that doesn’t mean I will actually ever like her. That’s a bridge too far for me. ???

Nah, you just noticed it this season. The mask has slipped MANY times but Fancy Pants is good at the shuffle and jive. You eventually see what you can’t unsee. Same with LVP. I don’t know why we should be surprised to find out rich people suck, but we always are. ? When will we learn? ????
