Vicki Gunvalson Reveals Her Top Regret on RHOC and Why She’s Done Filming With Tamra Judge

Season 18 of The Real Housewives of Orange County is arguably one of the best Housewives seasons in recent years. This season has brought a ton of drama, and Vicki Gunvalson has been a major part of it. This is despite only being a friend on the show. Now, the RHOC OG is opening up about what she regrets from the show and why she doesn’t want to ever film with Tamra Judge again.

As fans know, Vicki and Tamra have not been on great terms lately. The two have been battling on social media, which led to Tamra tearfully asking Vicki not to speak about her family. She even said she would give up her spot on the show to Vicki. This has led many fans of the show to say Bravo should take her up on that offer. 

According to TV Show Ace, Vicki recently opened up on her podcast,  My Friend, My Soulmate, My Podcast, about what she would undo from the show if she could. Naturally, many fans would be able to guess what she regrets from her time with the network. 



According to Vicki, “Of course, probably dating Brooks and you know having that experience on international TV. I should have broken up with him right away and I didn’t because I believed him.”

She continues, “That was a tough part of my life, and I definitely would take that back. I wouldn’t have held onto him as long as I did.”

Fans will recall that the two dated for several years. However, it came to light that he faked having cancer. Vicki has been accused of knowing he didn’t have cancer. Notably, this happened during season 10 of the show and she even sued him after. 

According to Reality Tid Bit, Vicki had more to say about the world of Housewives. She and her co-host took questions and one person wanted to know who she wouldn’t want to do an Ultimate Girl’s Trip season with. Vicki first says, “You know what I, I don’t really have anybody I hate, I don’t.”



After being pressed by her co-host, Vicki then admits that she doesn’t want to film with Tamra. 

She says, “Probably Tamra right now because we’re at odds, and I don’t want to be filming with her ever again.”

Vicki goes on, “I stepped back because I didn’t like the way she was treating people. That’s not who I am, and that’s not who I want my clients or my family to think I’m friends with.”

She then says she doesn’t want to be with people who she wouldn’t be “proud to say that’s my friend.”

Fans can watch RHOC season 18 on Thursday nights and watch older seasons on Peacock.
