Heres Why Fans Are Still Bothered By Vicki Gunvalsons Time On RHOC
Fans of the Real Housewives of Orange County still discuss the scene when Vicki Gunvalson screamed about a family van, as she wanted better transportation for a family trip. The reality star was on the show for 14 seasons and people wonder if she wants to still be a Real Housewife, and she starred in many scenes that are very dramatic.
While Vicki does have a good-sized fanbase, others take issue with some things about her time on RHOC. Let's take a look at why fans are still bothered by her time on the reality series.
Vicki's Behavior
Vicki Gunvalson's years on The Real Housewives of Orange County allowed fans to see her family, love, and work lives, and viewers also got a glimpse of her friendship with Tamra Judge, prompting people to ask about Vicki and Tamra's current friendship.
One fan of RHOC shared in a Reddit thread that they were watching season 10 and they said that the way that Vicki acted was "soooo cringey." They mentioned that she drove a golf cart on a pedestrian path, not on the right one for golf carts, and that was tough to watch.
Another viewer responded that they don't love when Vicki would say that she was filling up her "love tank."
Many people think that Vicki's behavior is why people enjoy watching her on the show. "The reason Vicki has been so successful on reality TV is because she is literally always willing to embarrass herself."
Someone else thinks that's why people are drawn to RHOC: they posted, "Those cringy antics is one of Vicki's main draws. We are all still talking about her meltdown about the family van and that recent gif someone made of the new intro with Vicki's screams."
Some people take issue with how Vicki would often talk about having a career, and she would compare herself to the other cast members: one posted on Reddit, "I'm currently watching season 5 and she keeps repeating how she works, and no one else does, like almost every scene."
In another Reddit thread about Vicki's behavior on the reality show, a fan said that they don't like Vicki's tendency to interrupt the other cast members, which does come up quite a lot.
Vicki, Brooks, And Briana
Fans also have a problem that in the tenth season of RHOC, Vicki's boyfriend Brooks said that he had cancer, and he wasn't sick.
A RHOC viewer started a thread on Reddit and said that they didn't feel Vicki knew about the lies: they wrote, "I must admit, I don't think Vicki was 'in on it' but I do believe she was in denial about everything, ignoring huge red flags and covering things up to avoid him looking bad."
Other fans think that Vicki did know, especially since she said that Terry Dubrow came to her house in the middle of the night to be there for Brooks. But since he didn't have cancer, that definitely didn't happen.
According to People, Brooks said that he did pretend to have cancer and he even faked documents so people would think he stayed at City of Hope, a hospital for cancer patients.
Brooks said, "I have since apologized in a statement that showing fake documents was absolutely wrong, that Vicki did not have anything to do with it and hindsight I should have never showed anything at all. Vicki was not ‘in on any cancer scam or created storyline.’ There is no scam. Second, Vicki never has paid me to be quiet regarding this ‘supposed’ scam nor has paid me to release any statements.”
In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Vicki said that she didn't know about it, and that she wouldn't go along with something like that as family members have had cancer.
Fans also aren't pleased with how, when Briana told Vicki that she didn't trust Brooks and thought that something was wrong, Vicki picked Brooks over her.
It turns out that many viewers find Vicki's treatment of her daughter problematic in general. Briana and her now husband Ryan eloped, and Vicki was really upset when she found out about it. As a fan posted in a thread on Reddit, it worked out, as the couple has several kids now: "Her daughter acted on an impulse that (so far) has resulted in a happy marriage."
It makes sense that after 14 seasons of the Real Housewives of Orange County, some fans would take issue with some of Vicki's behavior, as every cast member has definitely said and done some things that people aren't going to agree with.
