Gretchen Rossi is shedding light on potential tension ahead of The Real Housewives of Orange County’s upcoming season. While the Bravosphere is still buzzing over “OG of the OC” Vicki Gunvalson’s return, Rossi revealed that drama may already be simmering behind the scenes.

“Even just, like, over the summer, Vicki was, like, texting me stuff and saying, like, oh, I’m just gonna keep me mouth shut [about] what she said,” Gretchen Rossi told Us Weekly on Saturday, November 15, while attending BravoCon 2025 in Las Vegas. “She was telling me some insane stuff,” Gretchen continued, claiming that Vicki was texting about her longtime friend and RHOC co-star Tamra Judge.

“Yeah, it’s gonna be, it’s gonna be interesting to see the dynamics,” Gretchen said, hinting that the upcoming season could bring some friction.

Vicki’s official return to reality TV was announced at this year’s three-day fan convention in Sin City on Friday, November 14, after Andy Cohen surprised her on stage with an orange during The Bravos awards.

“Vicki, would you join us as a housewife for season 20?” Cohen asked Vicki, who became visibly emotional on stage. (Vicki helped launch the reality TV show and appeared for 14 seasons before walking away from the cameras in January 2020.)

“When I went out there, Andy wanted me to give Kandi Burruss the Wifetime Achievement Award, and he gave me a week’s notice,” Vicki explained to Us on Saturday. “I prepared a speech, and I went up on stage, and it wasn’t on the prompter.”

She continued, “When he asked me about season 20, I was really somber going out there because I thought, ‘This is my last time on stage. This is my last time with BravoCon. They’re putting me out to pasture. I’m going to kick and scream the whole way out, but I’m going to do it.’ And then, when he asked me, it took a while for me to understand that this is my next life now for at least a year. I’m so grateful and thankful. I’m just going to be me and have fun and encourage women.”

While Gretchen seemed to allude to some possible bad blood still lingering between the pair, Tamra Judge told Us weekly that she is excited for the upcoming season despite being caught off guard by Vicki’s return.

“No, I did not know it was gonna go down,” Tamra told Us on Saturday. “I’ve been, you know, spending a little time with Vicki lately and talking with her. And I’m like, ‘Have you got any news? You know, normally we don’t get news about next season till about December or January. So she’s like, ‘No, I haven’t heard anything.’”

She continued, “So yeah, she was totally surprised. Totally surprised.”

The look on Emily, Gina, and Heather's collective (stink) faces when Andy announced Vicki's return was everything!

Another has-been brought back! Obviously, Bravo is having trouble finding women who are willing to be humiliated, disrespected and disgraced on TV. I know there are some who have wanted Vicki back. But to me, she is as entertaining and interesting as a pill bug.

Although I'm sure Eddie is udderly thrilled (or not), I think she went too big, especially for a woman her age . . . but what do I know. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/aa2818d9a783f4f343ab0a4f421bbc7193c66092ce28fec9de08a7a627486585.png

Oof! ???? Well, I reckon if she’s happy with them…???? However, imo you are ??. Both the fake melons ? and the fake TEEFS ? are WAY too big! However, I’ve heard that when you get the fake TEEFS you get temporary ones first before they make the permanent ones (which makes no sense to me but apparently that’s how it works). So, the (semi ?) permanent ones don’t look as horsey as the temporary ones do. Mmmm, we’ll see…? Similarly, with the fake ta ta’s they have to settle in. That takes a minute, but I have more hope for the TEEFS than the ta ta’s and I ain’t exactly betting the farm on the TEEFS, IJS. ?

At the reunion, she looks normally proportioned, so unless she's wearing some kind of heavy duty boulder holder (that's strapping them down), apparently the melons "settled in" too. Or maybe she went back in for a reduction.

Yeah, I don’t understand the ins and outs of it all, but apparently when you get new ta ta’s installed they look weird at first until they settle. Idk if it’s just the big ‘uns but I think it’s all of them. So, she probably just debuted them too early in the process. ????

Be quiet Gretchen. You and Jenn have caused Katie to lose her job because of your lies. One thing about Tamra...she doesn't pretend not to be a b*tch. She is a B*tch but Gretchen and Jen play nice girl while lying their faces off and causing someone who told the truth to lose their job. At least with Tamra we expect this type of behavior.

Tamra's been putting out there that Vicki should be back for season 20 for a few months. I don't think she was caught off guard. The whole world knew she would be back. Its only right. the only ones that should be worried are Gretchen and Emily. I think they both will be fired.
