Stinamaia June 26, 2016 Share June 26, 2016 I'm convinced Vicki needed a sympathetic story line last year and she and Brooks concocted the cancer story. It was something Books had used before. Vicki just didn't expect so much scrunity from her cast mates/producers. Then when questioned she doubled down with more details, e.g. the tabbed notebook. Next she began to yell, and finally she declared herself a victim. AND she still has contact with him. That's the most damning detail. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4986-vicki-gunvalson-her-love-tank-runneth-over/page/25/#findComment-2357484

She gets way too upset both during and after the lunch, and I don't believe for a moment that Vicki is that good of an actress. Also compare it to her behavior at Shannon's Aries party and showing the "test results" to Tamra - there is almost a withdrawn, sullen quietness to her. She never blows up like that again.

I felt as though her reaction was a result of her feeling somewhat panicked that people were figuring it out. Her anger at the top of the mountain or the winter wonderland party the previous season had a different energy- that felt real. This one, not so much (to me). I thought it was convenient that she brought up her mother (again).

I'll start with the new "coming" website page )a stock photo of hands) doesn't have people wearing the magical bracelets. the original site? All we needed to know to confirm this was/is a scam is that is a ".com" website. Real not for profits use ".org". Then of course the incredible idea that real charities would go under her umbrella, yeah, the American Cencer Society and the like will rush to the umbrella of a reality tv star with no medical experience and a history of bullshitting about fake cancer. although now that I think about it, the insurance tab makes me think that when Icki used the term "umbrella", maybe she meant she wants to sell insurance to all the charities? Yeah, that's the ticket. This is really all about selling more insurance..... i am also assuming a new boyfriend has an interest in a business that sells these cheap-ass bracelets, because she won't do something without getting some profit out of it. Or maybe that is Brooks' new business. did her son move to Scottsdale? The start of the article said she met with him there. [edited to add] I decided to check if she has a Scottsdale office. Not per her business web page. Though hysterical in other ways. The "blog" section just has 3 placeholder spots, specifically for where she could (but hasn's) put content. Seriously - they are called "this is the title of your first entry," etc.. The text is 'here is where you can put in sip On my way! Inspirational text'. She isn't even trying anymore.

zoeysmom July 31, 2016 Share July 31, 2016 (edited) Here is my thing with Briana and Vicki. Instead of making it sound like Briana makes all this money "working two jobs" as nurse be honest, a foreign concept to both. I would have no problem with Briana saying, "six figures, shooting a reality show, home with my kids, near my mom, win, win." As long as she was also ready to admit two house payments for seven months, away from my husband because I took the job in OC, travelled when I should not have and wasn't such a great idea but the money was great. Am I the only one who hears they are going to pick up the boys? It always sounds like Briana is tasked with taking care of the kids. Twice I have heard she and Vicki say, I have to go pick up the kids. I realize in the OC world nannies are more popular but some people still rely on daycare. ETA: I do think Briana had the added burden of saving her mom's million dollar salary. As Vicki said, "they had a plan."

One of Vicki's biggest/worst/most glaring lies was the lie about Terry coming over to give Brooks an IV at home after his "first" chemo treatment. She told both Shannon and Briana that very same lie and she told it well before filming began for last season. It was a blatant lie, not some small little white lie but a big, bold lie and she didn't expect that Shannon/Heather would become friends with her lie coming out as a result of them talking or that Briana would tell Tamra about that lie as well. Vicki repeatedly lied about going to Dr. appointments with him, going to chemo treatments with him and that she organized his medical/treatment binder.....all of which were deliberate lies told by her, not by Brooks. Vicki admitted that it was her idea to bring Brook's "cancer story" to the show, that he didn't want it on the show at all but that he finally gave in to her. She had nothing else to offer the show, outside of Brooks living with her and, IMO, she feared that would not be enough to keep her as a full HW. Remember, Luann (NY) had been downgraded to FOH the season before because she refused to share her/Jacques relationship ending on the show and Vicki would have been well aware of that and would fear getting downgraded to FOH herself. I don't think she initially knew he, Brooks, was lying about having cancer but she knew the truth before filming began but decided to use/run with it anyway. ETA.... IMO, Vicki keeps tabs on the other HW shows, especially the OGs of each city. She saw Luann, 1 of the 2 remaining NY OGS get downgraded and feared it would happen to her. And she is now using the OG, Teresa G, of NJ excuses...."I made a MISTAKE", "I didn't lie" "I believed what Joe (Brooks for Vicki) told me" and "It isn't my fault" !

PhilMarlowe2 July 31, 2016 Share July 31, 2016 Personally, I don't know that the IV lie is necessarily because Vicki knew Brooks was faking cancer. By her own admission, Vicki was hoping Brooks' sickness would elicit sympathy from the other women and help him to belong. I could totally see Vicki lying about the severity of his condition, and him needing an IV, in order to get those casseroles. The fact is that Vicki lies a lot. I think she lies impulsively (kind of like Lisa Rinna impulsively agrees with whomever she is talking to at the time). I still think she was embellishing simply because it made him sound sicker, not because she knew he was healthy.

If you look back at the episodes where Meghan originally outed her doubts about Brooks with cancer, people were extremely sympathetic towards Brooks and Meghan was the worst person ever for doubting him-even though Eddie had done the "bullshit" cough early on. Brooks early on-way before filming began in October was posting signs of City of Hope and thanking them for their care of him. He and Vicki were travelling and picked up a juice account and Brooks was using it to tout his success with cancer. I believe Vicki and Brooks were trying to negotiate $$$$$$$ for Brooks to appear on the show if Vicki was going to be forced to film with him (since he lived with her). He had a perfect excuse for not filming if he were undergoing "chemo". His last chemo treatment just happened to be right after he and Vicki returned for Puerto Vallarta. Vicki knew at the Aries party that she was losing her battle of plausible deniability regarding Brooks not having cancer. She chose to strike out at Shannon instead of admitting it. People were furious with Shannon for making Vicki cry and badgering her about Brooks' cancer. If Brooks had not have dumped Vicki she would still be with him. Her pathetic phone call from the limo-well Vicki perhaps had you not gotten in David's face after attacking his wife you would not be hearing what the others' feel about you. David was clear admit it and you have a clean slate. David had to admit to dishonesty and it keeps being thrown in his face.

Snarky McSnarky August 13, 2016 Share August 13, 2016 (edited) According to Ad Age: Ferrara Candy Co. is using ideas from reality TV, specifically from "The Real Housewives of Orange County," to promote new organic gummy bears. The campaign stars four CGI bears with a bit of an attitude about being organic: "They're a little pudgy, a little judgy, and a lot delicious." As part of the push, the bears will recreate some iconic moments from "The Real Housewives of Orange County" that will run on Bravo's web site. Also, the Mrs. Organic gummy bear character and RHOC's Vicki Gunvalson are set to have a back and forth engagement on social media. http://adage.com/article/cmo-strategy/ferrara-reality-tv-approach-organic-gummy-debut/304473/ Edited August 13, 2016 by Snarky McSnarky Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4986-vicki-gunvalson-her-love-tank-runneth-over/page/25/#findComment-2481207

Al Sharpton! Al Sharpton!! Next would be Carole "I ate some gummy bears laced with something and then I threw up" Radziwill. Not a housewife, but Caroline Stanbury would be next just based on how she hoovered those jelly tots while her business crumbled. After that, Phaedra Parks, Taylor Armstrong, and Kyle Richards just based on their ability to put on a child's birthday party. Last would be Brandi Granville and Yolanda because both of them have demonstrated the ability to drive traffic to their sites and sponsors. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4986-vicki-gunvalson-her-love-tank-runneth-over/page/25/#findComment-2481933

Gam2 August 16, 2016 Share August 16, 2016 I just read upthread (sorry for this kind of type-have no idea what I accidentally hit-tech challenged for sure) that Briana sold her house at a likely loss. We were in the Army for twenty years and never bought a house because we moved every couple of years and spent a total of 7 years in Germany. We didn't buy a house until we retired. We couldn't afford to buy one and couldn't afford to sell one until we had retired. I see these young couples on "House Hunter's" who are in the military and buying houses. I just want to shout "Dont' do it!". BTW, my parents and my husband's parents were also retired military and didn't buy their first houses until they'd retired too. It makes no financial sense to us to buy these houses that you'll only live in for a couple of years. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4986-vicki-gunvalson-her-love-tank-runneth-over/page/25/#findComment-2490987

It makes no financial sense to us to buy these houses that you'll only live in for a couple of years. I think Ryan/Briana though they would be there for a much longer time but he got hurt, bad enough that he is in the process of getting a medical discharge, which is why they sold the house. I believe that they made about 15K on the sale which wouldn't leave much after RE commission/taxes are paid unless they put a big down payment on the house when they bought it (which is what I suspect they did as Briana made really good money nursing and from this show). My nephew (then a Marine)/his wife (ex AF) bought when he was stationed in DC and had to sell about 4 years later when he left the Military. They did well enough to have a decent down payment on their next house. I guess buying a house makes sense if there is no base housing readably available or if their off base housing allotment is large enough, in addition to a second income from the non military spouse, to cover all the expenses.

She refused to discuss Brooks cancer last season even though he was on the show but has no problem claiming her BIL was just diagnosed with prostrate cancer and can't get insurance because of it in her latest blog! Last week she claims a close friend of hers died without having any life insurance! Because of all her lies last season, I would not put it past her to be lying about these men in her blog!

yourmomiseasy August 18, 2016 Share August 18, 2016 Wow. From the blog... Quote I can't continue to talk about what happened last year, I just simply don't have the energy. It's done, it's over and I've moved on. I was the one who was hurt by my past relationship, but somehow they continue to make it about them. It's mind-boggling. Mind boggling indeed, but not in the way Vicki thinks. And the gross insurance pitch... Quote Lastly, this week I found out my brother-in-law who applied for life insurance recently was declined and diagnosed with prostate cancer from the life insurance exam. This goes to show you how important it is to apply for coverage when you are healthy and not after a diagnosis as he is now uninsurable.

Juliegirlj August 23, 2016 Share August 23, 2016 It pains me to say this because I cannot stand Vicki, but she looks fantastic! She lost a lot of weight and seems fit and toned. Her face is still a mess but I don't think her body ever looked so good! A while back when Vicki was filmed in her bedroom I noticed several bottles of body lotion in her bathroom- got me wondering how they all get such soft glowing skin- do they body scrubs and wraps? I'm sure they all get their legs laser'ed or waxed and spray tans but even the skin on the rest of their body looks smooth. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4986-vicki-gunvalson-her-love-tank-runneth-over/page/25/#findComment-2507365
