pieinmyeye July 8, 2018 Share July 8, 2018 Vicki Gunvalson is one of the most vile, petty, selfish, immature women I have ever seen on a reality show. Even though I watched it the first time, I just rewatched the final episode of season four. So sorry you had to buy your own Rolodex, ??? I just don’t understand why they didn’t show Vick and Lynn the door at the same time. What’s most amazing to me is that I used to like the snooty snake. 10 Link to comment

Burt's Bio includes information on his dog rescue organization. Vicki's Bio is all about Vicki. She was embarrassing: while being interviewed she dropped the flag and talked about whooping it up. What an idiot she is. I live in downtown HB and I would be mortified to associate with anyone that behaves likes she does. We’re normal folks there. 5 Link to comment

From my hazy recollection, Briana was quite distant from Donn when he & Vicki were married. Michael seemed more neutral at the time. I wonder what happened? https://realityblurb.com/2018/07/06/rhoc-star-vicki-gunvalsons-son-michael-slams-former-step-father-donn-amid-her-feud-with-son-in-law-ryan/ This is my recollection of Brianna and Michael's relationship with Donn when he was married to Vicki. In fact they both seemed to just tolerate him, as did Vicki. I remember them going on vacation and leaving Donn at home. I was surprised when I heard how long he had been with Vicki, as the kids treated him as someone who had only been in their mother's life for a few years, and was as important to them as any given piece of furniture in the house. So it is interesting to see that now that Brianna is a mom, she seems to appreciate Donn. Or maybe she is just going along with Ryan wanting to stick it to Vicki via Donn. Either way though, good for Donn for being a part of Brianna's life. I looked at the link regarding Ryan and Vicki's feud, and saw the pic Ryan posted of their home. I would imagine housing is fairly cheap there (certainly compared to California) but I am wondering what Ryan is doing now for a living? And finally, when does the new season start? 3 Link to comment
zenme July 10, 2018 Share July 10, 2018 I bet Donn and Ryan met and the 2 just vibed, so this is why Brianna is now on the Donn Love Train. 5 Link to comment

July 16th, 9/8c. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I of course don't know the ins and outs of Donn G's relationship with Bri & Ryan/family, but he seems fairly low-key and chill, which compared to the overbearing, controlling Vickster, would have to be a welcome contrast. I can't see Donn or Ryan orchestrating a visit solely for the purpose of irritating Vicky, but it is likely a bonus benefit. Edited July 10, 2018 by SuprSuprElevated 9 Link to comment

smores July 13, 2018 Share July 13, 2018 Vicki used to trash the kid's bio father when she was married to Don and go on and on about how if it wasn't for Don, they wouldn't have had a father. Now that she and Don aren't together, it's not really a shock that she's trying to re-write Don out of their lives, too. I think he was probably a decent stepfather to the kids, Vicki didn't really let anyone have control in their lives except her, but, it seems like the kids had a good enough relationship with Don. In their shoes, I'd have him be the grandfather to my kids, too. 14 Link to comment

Also to give warnings and try to keep track if it’s going off topic and correct that too. I’ve started quite a few threads but they weren’t the most popular shows (an example would be Bloodline) that draw tons of talkers or political. Others I have tried to begin and someone came in and took it over, redid it but never were they being mean or disrespectful. I think Kung Fu Bunny used to mod this show but wanted to back away. Go ahead and try if you choose to. 2 Link to comment

Mindthinkr July 16, 2018 Share July 16, 2018 (edited) Watching Vicki live on the Daily Pop. Shes wearing her heavy Chanel look (necklace and pin which also seems to be favored by the RHOP). Glad to hear that her daughter Brianna loves her partner Steve because he’s so normal. She might not have had the best of relationships with her previous two husbands but they did seem somewhat normal. She said they just moved to NC but IRL that happened awhile ago. She and Kelly are lukewarm. Evidently (accordingly to Vicki) Steve set up her friend Jeri with Kelly’s ex Michael. Kelly was mad at that but has somewhat forgiven Vicki because technically Steve did it. She’s s still saying she’s still trying to be authentic and loves to whoop it up. (Same sentence different season) She says that Tamara is her ride or die friend. (But they have a lot of up and downs in their relationship) She drops a (paraphrasing) “What, do you want to see me get married in 3 months?” comment that sent the camera to Steve’s face (where he was blushing). The co-host called her out for giving it a timeline but you can never really trust what comes out of these housewives mouths. They just open them a lot to generate publicity for their shows. There was no ring on that special finger. Edited July 16, 2018 by Mindthinkr 1 Link to comment

In the previews she looks like she has gained a ton of weight so now I have seen 3 versions of V for this season: 1) Promo pic which is an amalgamation of Alison Sweeney, Olivia Newton John, Bugs Bunny, old Vicki, 2) promo trailer which she looks sweaty and heavier, and 3) this one where she looks swollen, shiny (or sweaty) yet maybe facially slimmer than preview face. 2 Link to comment

LOL As for her "buying" Briana a house, she lent Briana/Ryan the down payment, that's it and she expected the money paid back as soon as their Ok house sold. Like all of Vicki's big "gifts" the kids have to pay for them, not Vicki, but Briana/Michael. IMO, Ryan was in the right, he was defending his wife from Vicki making it look like she never see/hears from them because that isn't true. Vicki has used Briana/Ryan/ the boys on SM before for sympathy/support even though they have asked her not to do that. Yes, someone needs to be the adult and stop Vicki from using Briana/the boys for SM fodder and Ryan is doing just that. 9 Link to comment

Although it’s very hard to do, I’m just suggesting that they put their ego aside and not exacerbate the problem with keeping it on SM. Ignore her posts and have conversation in private, but refuse to engage on SM. And, yes, I know that I’m putting the adulting on Brianna and Ryan, but that’s because I think Brianna CAN.

I kind of hate it, because I fancy myself a bit of romantic when it comes to language. (I wish people still said, "I don't like the cut of your jib.") I don't like to speak as modern as some, but I knew what "adulting" means. It's hard to avoid that kind of talk if you watch younger TV, participate in SM, etc. I was able to figure out what it meant but never heard it before and don't acknowledge it as a real word. My SM is limited to Twitter and this forum. I don't do Facebook, Instagram or whatever else is out there. I created a FB account years ago but don't use it. I also don't watch "younger TV." I'm just not young anymore and can't relate. Edited July 19, 2018 by AnnA 1 Link to comment

I prefer actual words. I don't know what many of the acronyms stand for anyway. Edited July 19, 2018 by AnnA 2 Link to comment
Pickles July 20, 2018 Share July 20, 2018 Vicki says she and Steve are talking marriage, but the timing has to be right. Anytime would be right for Vicki. He better run. 14 Link to comment
