Jeff Lewis isn’t holding back when it comes to his thoughts on Gina Kirschenheiter.
The radio host recently weighed in on the Real Housewives of Orange County star during a segment on Jeff Lewis Live, shortly after news broke that Gina got engaged to Travis Mullen during a ski vacation.
While discussing the Real Housewives of Orange County, Jeff made it clear he has strong feelings about why Gina continues to remain on the cast.
“So Kelly and I had the same conversation this weekend,” Jeff said, referring to former RHOC star Kelly Dodd.
Jeff then explained why he thinks Gina continues to be protected by producers, and it wasn’t exactly a compliment.
“I believe it’s that she will do whatever the producers tell her to do,” he said. “She’s their little robot, so she’ll stir up sh*t, she’ll bring something up. She’ll do whatever.”
According to Jeff, that willingness to play along is exactly why Gina remains on the cast, even as fans continue to question her authenticity.
“I mean, I think she’s one of the most inauthentic, people on the show because I think she’s literally doing what the producers are asking her to do,” he continued.
Jeff wrapped up his assessment by suggesting Gina’s loyalty to production all but guarantees her job security.
@just_bookin_around When he says Kelly I believe he’s referring to Kelly Dodd and I assume she has the same thinking as Jeff in regards to Gina. What do you think? Is she teacher’s pet? ?: Jeff Lewis Live, January 5 ?: BravoTV #fyp #bravo #bravotv #peacock #l ? original sound – Just Bookin’ Around
“So I mean, she’s teacher’s pet. They’re not gonna get rid of her.”
Jeff’s take may not be far off, at least according to a growing number of viewers online. Across Reddit threads and posts on X, fans have repeatedly complained that Gina brings little to the show, calling her storylines thin and accusing her of acting more like a mouthpiece for production than an authentic cast member.
Many viewers argue that her role often feels forced, with some saying she stirs drama without having much of her own, fueling the perception that she’s still around because she plays along rather than because she delivers compelling television.
