The OG of the OC is coming back!
It’s official. Vicki Gunvalson is returning to the Real Housewives of Orange County after Bravo host Andy Cohen surprised her at The Bravos at BravoCon event in Las Vegas on Friday.
”Vicki, would you join us as a housewife for Season 20?” asked Andy to Vicki, who originally joined the series for its first season all the way back in 2006.
“Yes!” an emotional Vicki responded.
Later, Vicki spoke out about being offered a spot back on the show she helped catapult into popularity.
“They just gave me season 20. He brought me out on stage and gave me an orange,” said an emotinal Vicki to
The current cast members of the Real Housewives of Orange County, including Heather Dubrow
, Emily Simpson, Gina Kirschenheiter, and Shannon Beador were later captured on video hugging and congratulating Vicki on her return.
The Bravo network also took to their official Instagram page to announce Vicki’s surprising come back.
“BREAKING FROM #BRAVOCON @BravoAndy has officially offered @VickiGunvalson her orange back for Season 20 of #RHOC. We’ve never been more ready to whoop it up!!! ,” wrote the network along with a collage of Vicki’s photos through her past 14 seasons on the RHOC.
Earlier this month, Vicki and Tamra stunned fans when they revealed they had ended their feud and reconciled following some years of estrangement.
“We’ve had a lot of ups and downs in our 20 years. I always say we’re like sisters,” Tamra explained to Us Weekly. “It’s that love-hate relationship all the time. I’m talking sisterly love, like, you have little arguments. And then, of course, being on a show together, there’s always ups and downs — especially the type of show that we were on together.”
“Summer House” star Lindsay Hubbard got into a heated confrontation with “Vanderpump Rules” alum Tom Sandoval and his girlfriend, Victoria Lee Robinson, at BravoCon 2025.
Page Six obtained an exclusive video of the trio having a loud conversation in the lobby of the Four Seasons Hotel Las Vegas in the pre-dawn hours of Sunday, following a full day of press and fan panels.
Our eyewitness says Hubbard was “activated” and “came flying over” to talk to Sandoval privately around 2:30 a.m., but Robinson opposed. We’re told she didn’t know who Hubbard was.
Eventually, the three of them decided to step aside to chat, and things got tense.
Our video shows Hubbard saying, “It did piss me off,” followed by Robinson saying, “And yeah, you should apologize to me,” though it’s unclear who they are speaking to.
Hubbard, 39, then says to “shut the f–k up,” as Robinson says to “get the f–k out.”
It then seems that Hubbard tries to mediate between Sandoval, 43, and Robinson, as she says, “Whatever you two have going on, don’t do it in–” but the rest is inaudible.
Robinson, 33, then looks at Sandoval and says, “Your ego, buddy,” before storming off.
Reps for Hubbard, Sandoval and Robinson did not immediately respond to Page Six’s requests for comment.
Hubbard and Sandoval both went through very public breakups in 2023.
Hubbard’s “Summer House” co-star Carl Radke called off their engagement that August, just three months before their wedding.
She has since welcomed a baby — 11-month-old daughter Gemma — with her now-ex-boyfriend Turner Kufe.
As for Sandoval, he was in a nine-year relationship with his “Vanderpump Rules” co-star Ariana Madix when his affair with their other co-star Rachel “Raquel” Leviss was exposed in March 2023.
Sandoval and Robinson made their relationship Instagram-official the following February, though it has not always been smooth sailing.
The model accused Sandoval of cheating on her in December 2024 but later retracted her claim, insisting she had “misjudged” a situation.
