Vicki Gunvalson is getting candid about her experience filming the latest season of The Real Housewives of Orange County — and it doesn’t sound easy.

Speaking on her podcast My Friend, My Soulmate, My Podcast, Vicki, 64, admitted that the current filming schedule feels more intense than ever before.
“I don’t remember it as extreme as it is now. It is 2-3 scenes a day, you are meeting with people.” Vicki added she is constantly meeting with new people to catch up/follow up from conversations.
She questioned whether it’s the show — or just where she is in life now.
“Yeah either my business got busier or I’m older. I don’t know if I can sustain like I used to.”
According to Vicki, the pace has become overwhelming.
“It’s just very demanding, very tiring. And when I am filming, I’m looking at my clock like when can I get home, and that’s not a way to do it.”
She also admitted that the pressure to keep up with the group adds to the stress.

“Cause then I feel anxious and I feel like I got to stay and do what everyone else is doing. And it’s not fair for them if I can leave.”
In fact, she recently hit a breaking point.
“Last night was the first night I bailed out after two hours. I said I’m exhausted and I can’t do it.”
While Vicki has been a staple of the franchise for years, it’s clear that filming is starting to feel different — and possibly unsustainable.
Whether this means she’ll step back for good remains to be seen, but for now, she’s making it clear: RHOC is taking a serious toll.
