‘RHOC’ Rookie Katie Ginella HATES Heather “Fancy Pants” Dubrow and Emily Simpson!
Orange County might be known for its pleasant living, but not everyone can handle the drama of being a housewife.
The newest member of The Real Housewives of Orange County, Katie Ginella, has already expressed dissatisfaction with some of her co-stars during her debut season, according to RadarOnline.
Sources reveal that Katie confided in friends about wanting to “quit” halfway through filming, citing issues with two specific cast members: Heather “Fancy Pants” Dubrow and Emily Simpson.
Ginella, a mother of four from Georgia, allegedly told her friends that she “hates” Heather and considers Emily “two-faced.”
Reports suggest that Katie also described Simpson as “completely different off-camera” and “fake AF.” However, sources close to the production have denied these claims, asserting that they are not true.
It remains to be seen whether Ginella’s alleged conflict with Emily will be featured on the show, but the trailer does hint at intense confrontations with Dubrow.
In April, an insider confirmed that Katie would be a full-fledged housewife, not just a “friend” of the cast. While Bravo declined to comment, new promotional images show Katie holding an orange alongside the other housewives, confirming her prominent role in the upcoming season.
Ginella isn’t the only one embroiled in drama this season. Tamra Judge has rekindled her feud with former gym buddy Jennifer Pedranti. Cameras captured the tension as Judge and other cast members discussed Pedranti’s fiancé, Ryan Boyajian, who was recently linked to a gambling scandal involving Los Angeles Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani and his former interpreter, Ippei Mizuhara.
As previously reported, Mizuhara was accused of wiring money from Ohtani’s bank account to pay off Boyajian’s gambling debts without the MLB player’s knowledge. The U.S. Attorney’s office announced that Mizuhara agreed to plead guilty to charges related to the theft of nearly $17 million from Ohtani’s account. Boyajian is believed to be the “Associate 1” mentioned in the case.
Judge, 56, Dubrow, 55, Simpson, 48, and returning cast member Alexis Bellino, 47, were filmed again after the season had wrapped, as producers sought to capture the fallout from Boyajian’s legal troubles. In a dramatic moment, Tamra wore an FBI hat, prompting an angry reaction from Pedranti, who lashed out at her former friend.
Shannon Beador was not present for the additional filming, but her ongoing issues with Bellino, who returned to the show after several years, will be featured in the upcoming season. Alexis’s return follows her relationship with Beador’s ex-boyfriend, John Janssen.
Fans can expect plenty of drama when RHOC Season 18 premieres on July 11.
