Real Housewives of OC – 7/18/24 – The Struggle is ‘Real’ as a Fake ‘Real’tor

We’re getting to know new addition Katie, Fed Ex’d from Korea as a baby. Love that.

There’s an asshole ex-husband that she has three older kids with, and a 6 year old with the new guy who seems to be not an asshole. Hopefully, she didn’t follow the marry-a-second-asshole pattern as women tend to do.

I’m basing my asshole assessment of the ex on the fact she said her daughter feels abandoned by him. She has two sons that I guess live with him, and she seems okay with that. Not sure why. Not judging.

******

I don’t know about this flag football thing. First judgment that come to mind? Why are girls playing football??

I guess Emily has a ‘Poppi’ endorsement, or is looking for one, given this sweatshirt she has on in the flash. They are probiotic sodas that I decided I would try, they sounded good, they come in all of these fun flavors, but they pretty much ripped me a new asshole. Word of advice: If you don’t have any irregularity problems, I wouldn’t recommend them.

Nothing screams class like advertising you can’t take a shit.

They might be helpful, if you want to lose a few pounds before an event. Not the day of the event. Hopefully you’re getting my drift.

Moving on…

Can’t deal with Shannon and Emily and this new fitness schtick. Not saying it’s not good, just saying, it’s weird. We’re used to Shannon being shitfaced by 2pm and Emily carrying foot-longs in her purse. So it’s an adjustment.

Again when it comes to Jackass John, whom they inevitably end up discussing, tired of the flash of him sticking up for Shannon being used when we reflect on what a fucking an abusive piece of shit he is.

In THAT INSTANCE, he was sticking up for Shannon when Gina was acting like a twat. He wasn’t wrong, he should have been defending Shannon. One half point for John Jackass Jannsen.

Was he being a little extra? Yes, he kind of was. His true self was not depicted on camera. He was smart and shrewd enough to know to only act like the jackass he is, in private with Shannon.

I think Shannon thinks that too, when it gets brought up. Don’t get me wrong- Gina’s assessment of him is right, but that scene is not why she’s right. She deserved that actually. I do like her Gremlin comparison to him. I wish I would have thought of that to use with my ex-BF. I’ve never actually seen the movie but I do know the concept. My ex was definitely a gremlin. A pesky pesty annoying naughty (not a good naughty) evil angry GREMLIN.

God forbid Little Susie Angry Little Man didn’t get his way every single second of every single day.

Not a Gina fan, as you may have noticed if you didn’t know that already. I think she’s extremely immature and possibly quite intelligence challenged. It’s mind blowing to me she’s raising three kids. Watch them all turn out to be fucking doctors. That’s usually how it works.

They’ll be like, ‘wow I don’t want to end up a ditz like this broad, I’m gonna study!’

I’m shocked Gina’s not going after Shannon and her DUI situation, actually. I guess Bravo execs told her she’d look too cunty if she targets both Shannon and Jenn, so she had to pick one. She chose Jenn to focus on her fake real estate career, instead of focusing on her past DUI.

Thank you for going after Jenn, and not me.

She chose Jenn. Probably because she could then yammer about her fake real estate career, thus giving her another layer to her ‘story line.’ See I have this shit all figured out.

You’re welcome.

They group hug, Gemily and Shannon, which is sweet, but I do have a memory when it comes to useless info and two OC seasons ago, Gemily started the season being besties with Shannon, then turned on her over that whole fucking ridiculousness with Terry, and that Nicole chick that sued him twenty years prior because she didn’t like her new Terry titties. I mean really, it was ridiculous.

Tomorrow we’ll be turning on your ass, FYI.

******

Tamra and Eddie, stop, just STOP. You’re not biker bitches, you’re not cool and you don’t like each other.

Can they go away?? Can they just ride their Harley’s off into the sunset, pretty please? They’re not badass as they try to portray.

By the way, Eddie is gay. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, there’s not, so why not just own it?

Tamra has to get hammered to get through her super bitchy Housewife scenes, whilst she’s whining how she can’t be around Shannon now because she had a DUI.

Can’t make this shit up.

They bought a house in Big Bear, apparently. Eddie wants to relocate, Tamra does not. I say ‘they’ but it’s referred to as ‘Tamra’s house’ when they show it.

I can’t with Eddie in this Harley sweatshirt. You are not getting an endorsement.

Gay men can ride Harley’s too.

Tamra fake cries and gets super dramatic about her ‘concern’ for Shannon.

Now she gossips about Jenn and her sitch. Look over there, not here!

Apparently she hasn’t warmed up to Ryan, and well she wasn’t wrong, hate to say it.

******

Jenn has officially moved in with her ‘alleged’ side piece, Ryan along with her five kids. That’s not awkward at all. This is quite the house he’s managed to maintain with his sketchy income that Jenn doesn’t seem to care about where it comes from. I’m assuming she took the stance of ‘the less I know, the better.’

Her parents visit, and they seem very happy she has Ryan. They gush all over the dude. They seem kind of old school. As long as she has a man, she’s fine.

Everything is going to be fine now, you found Ryan.” AKA she has a place to live so they don’t have to pay her $12g/month rent now.

It’s not that I NEED a man to support me, whatever makes you think that?

******

Heather and Shannon meet for cocktails on a cold January night nestled by a heat lamp that Heather orders to be moved closer to her.

They discuss last season.

What is this thing Shannon is doing with her face as Heather assures her she wasn’t gossiping about her relationship last season. Looks like she got new lips and can’t control them.

Do my new lips make me look weird?

But Shannon isn’t it kind of a moot point? Like, drop it. The women were proven correct. That’s the story she needs to go with. She needs to humble herself much like she’s doing with the DUI situation, and say ‘you guys were right, what can I say, I loved him and wanted it to work out.’ I think they would all understand. Everyone except Heather, that is, I think have been in questionable and/or abusive relationships.

I’m actually tired of listening to it, and you should be too.

Heather you DID repeat shit Shannon drunkenly confided in you! Emily listed in her yap last season all of the things Shannon said, such as the non-paying for dates, and his kids don’t like her, and the ghosting…You get the drift. All kinds of typical dysfunctional relationship fucking shit that women put up with for whatever reason. I don’t know why. We can get vibrators.

I just love when the others are in turmoil so much.

I don’t know why Shannon is apologizing. Heather should be apologizing for taking pleasure in her dysfunctional and abusive relationship.

I’m sick of Heather saying she ‘likes’ Shannon. Jeez I would hate to see how she would treat a woman that she doesn’t like. Heather likes one person and that one person is herself.

And what’s extra gross, is that she was going through her own relationship struggles last season, with Terry’s alleged cheating, and instead of owning the situation, she DEMANDED Bravo edit out the scenes where it was discussed, and chose to tell everyone about Shannon and Jackass John.

I mean really, there HAD to have been truth to the cheating allegations if she pulled whatever Bravo strings she has, not sure why, and forced them to edit it out of the season.

That’s Heather Dubrow. So can we stop? Between these lies, and Gina and her fake real estate dilemma, I’m wondering how many eps are left until the end of the season.

Gemily seems overdressed for a super casz Laguna Beach beach side spot. Trying TOO fucking hard, and clearly has no reason to get dressed up ever.

Katie got it right. Jeans. This is a jeans venue.

Nothing screams ‘beach’ like a leather skirt…

NEVER heard of a HUGO spritz. Never noticed a Housewife ordering it ever. There always seems to be a cocktail du jour on each Housewife season.

Naturally I had to look into it.

It’s St. Germain, (which I’ve had before – it’s good – and expensive) mint, prosecco, and soda water.

Sounds light and refreshing. I might find it a little sweet for my taste. I’m sweet enough. Maybe I’ll try it.

Okay, so what are we going to talk about?? Shannon? Or Shannon? Or maybe Shannon??

My bad, they’re talking about Jenn. I was close, the other Housewife going through a tough time. Katie shares her knowledge that she has moved in with Ryan.

Gina: “oh see, I didn’t even know that.”

As if the fact that she as a fake Realtor, found her a rental, gives her the right to be privy to her personal info?

Gina, what are you doing? The fact that she’s acting so fucking stupid in regards to her real estate ‘career’ tells me the whole thing is CRAP!!

Let me get this straight. I need to get my thoughts in order.

So gossiping about a client’s financial plight and screaming at her in a coffee shop isn’t cause for concern, as to how you’ll be perceived in the professional Realtor community, however getting a woman into a rental, who ended up having a change in her finances, (husband stopped paying) causing her inability to keep up with the payments, is.

Sounds like fucking Housewife logic!! LOL!! Not really funny but we gotta roll with it I guess.

She ‘dropped everything to get her in that home?’

What did you drop Gina?? What exactly did you drop? Your gummy bears?

Gina is being very mean girl about Jenn. She was a stay at home mom raising five fucking kids when she decided she didn’t want to be with a man that didn’t value her.

If Jenn comes for my career I will fuck her up” Who TALKS like that??

You know if I ran a real estate office and saw one of my Realtors acting like this, they would be OUT on their ear. What office is she even affiliated with? Did she say? Yeah didn’t think so. The office that fake Realtors work out of.

******

Jenn and Gina meet. Gina has guns blazing as she enters the joint.

She gets all pissed off the moment she sees Jenn, supposedly because she had glam and ‘new clothes’ on. As if she knows the clothes are new.

In all fairness, she’s now living rent-free, so she can afford the damned glam and a new jacket! I feel like there’s some jealousy going on here because her guy is broke and had to move in with her.

Also seems pissed that SHE doesn’t have glam, clearly.

She nervously touches and fluffs the hair, as Jenn enters and retrieves her coffee.

She could have ordered her a coffee, just saying. Struggling single mom of five kids, ya can’t spring for a coffee Gina??

What is with this hat she’s wearing? Whatta hell is ‘RB?’

She smugly asks, “what is going on with you?”

People in the coffee shop even know this is all a joke. They’re all cracking up at this confrontation. Didn’t producers tell them to act natural?

Gina scolds her for not honoring her contract, she needs to grow up, pay her bills, it’s not her (not yet) ex-husband’s job to take care of her and her children (ummm it’s absolutely her husband’s job to take care of his children, Gina??) Does that apply in your life Gina?? It’s not Matt’s job to financially support your children? By the way I did read that she is officially divorced now, and received a nice settlement in addition to child support. I think there is a jealousy layer to her treatment of Jenn, for sure.

How dare you get your hair done when mine looked terrible during my divorce??

Oh and she shouldn’t be going to the gym. How dare she? Gina doesn’t approve of that either.

She dares to repeat this “I had a deal set UP…” fucking BS, and a miffed Realtor ignored her, TOTALLY because of Jenn, you know. If this story were true, maybe the Realtor ignored her because she thinks SHE’S a joke.

She wants Jenn to explain herself, then when she tries, Gina cuts her off and accuses her of not letting HER talk, storms out, sounding very high school, repeating “OMG THIS GIRLLLLLL!! THIS GIRRLLLLL.”

Gina calling someone else a ding-dong, and stupid, is fucking RICH.
