    Katie Ginella‘s husband, Matt Ginella, detailed a “911” text and phone call he got from Slade Smiley during a podcast appearance last week.

    As he looked back on the fallout involving Katie’s claims about what Gretchen Rossi, 46, had or hadn’t told her about the moments that followed her “naked wasted” ordeal with Tamra Judge, 57, Matt recalled the moment he was contacted by Slade, 51, amid the Real Housewives of Orange County cast’s girls’ trip to New Orleans.

    “I get a 911 text from Slade. It gives me chills saying this right now. I was like, ‘What has happened to my wife?’” Matt shared on the August 29 episode of Don’t Let It Stu.

    Although he was initially worried that something had happened to his spouse, Matt learned after calling his co-star that Slade’s concern was in regard to a dinner date he and Katie, 41, had with Slade, Gretchen, Jennifer Pedranti, 48, and Ryan Boyajian, 49, months prior.

    “These are his exact words: ‘Katie might have just sealed her own fate … She told Kiki Monique what we told you guys the night of Maestro’s, and now it’s getting back out to the group. This is really bad. You need to call Katie, and you essentially need to have her hold the line and say it wasn’t said,’” Matt shared.

    According to Matt, Slade informed him that he was on the other line with executive producer Alex Baskin, claiming he was “pissed” about the suggestion that Gretchen had allegedly said she was roofied and hospitalized.

    “[Slade] was in like, full backpedal, and I’m like, again, this guy started [RHOC]. I don’t know what his connections … I don’t know what his relationships are with top production or whatever. I don’t know if he’s on with Alex Baskin. I just know that I know Alex Baskin is important. He’s powerful, and apparently, he’s pissed,” Matt continued.

    But after calling Katie and asking her if she’d spoken to Kiki, Katie denied it.

    Matt also recounted what had gone down at Maestro’s during their group dinner, alleging that Slade was there only to make sure that he and Katie would join him in being “anti-Tamra.”

    “This story was told to us. We didn’t ask for it. We’re sitting there going, ‘Wow, that’s crazy. That’s some crazy sh*t,’” he revealed.

    As for why Jenn has denied Katie’s claims about what Gretchen said that night about the “naked wasted” incident, Matt accused her and Ryan of “covering and pretending” on Gretchen and Slade’s behalf because they “hate Tamra so much.”

    Matt then described how the story evolved as it was passed on.

    “A credible journalist gets told this story by Katie, apparently. Kiki said multiple times that it’s off the record, and I love hearing that now, she’s saying that she had an off-the-record conversation with Dave Quinn, who I guess took it to Tamra,” he stated. “The panic button was hit, and Slade was like, ‘Oh sh*t, that whole little embellishment I was doing for whatever reason…’”

    Moving on to the other women, Matt pointed out that Jenn and Katie “were real friends.”

    “This was a true friendship. Katie rode for Jenn, supported Jenn, believed Jenn, backed Jenn to the other women. She did everything that I think she thought Jenn would do for her, and Jenn didn’t,” he said.

    As for Emily Simpson, 49, Matt poked fun at her legal career.

    “For this mall cop of a lawyer to hire a lie detector when she knows it’s not admissible in court, the whole scene turns on a dime. It’s all a light, happy, ‘Oh, that’s not true.’ ‘Okay, that’s fine.’ But here comes Katie. Goes last. Misses all of them. ‘No one believes you.’ ‘You’re a horrible person,’” he recalled. 

    “This has been a nonstop, relentless projection and assault and bullying of grown women to a grown woman. [Shannon Beador]’s storyline? Katie. Jenn’s storyline? Katie. Gretchen’s storyline? Katie. [Gina Kirschenheiter] and Emily’s storyline? Katie,” he concluded.

  • Tamra Judge Says Jenn is the “Janet” of RHOC, Explains Calling Slade a “Deadbeat Dad” and Shares Regret Over IG Feud With Gretchen

    [ad_1]

    Tamra Judge compared Jennifer Pedranti to Janet Caperna during an interview on Lala Kent‘s podcast on Wednesday.

    As she also shared new details about her troubled past with Gretchen Rossi, 46, explained the reasoning behind her “deadbeat dad” statement against Slade Smiley, 51, and revealed what she regretted about their recent Instagram feud, the 57-year-old Real Housewives of Orange County star looked back on her FBI drama with Ryan Boyajian, 49, and spoke of how Jenn, 48, was cast on the show.

    “[Jenn] was a Janet. She wanted to be on the show,” Tamra declared on the August 20 episode of Give Them Lala.

    As fans of The Valley may have heard, Janet was accused of being a “fan” of Vanderpump Rules and plotting a run-in with Scheana Shay, 40, which ultimately got her on the show.

    As for how Jenn was cast on the show, Tamra said that she asked several women, including Jenn, who frequented her former gym, CUT Fitness, at the prompting of the producers.

    “They reached out to her, they passed on her, and they brought [Braunwyn Windham-Burke] on … At the time [she was still married to William Pedranti]. So I never gave her name ever again, never said anything to casting about anybody, and then years later I get a text message saying, ‘Hey, the show’s reaching out to me,’ and I’m like, ‘Oh, well, try out. It could be good for you.’ I know that’s what she’s always wanted, and I didn’t have any hard feelings for her … we just weren’t close,” she said.

    After Jenn joined RHOC in 2023 for season 17, it was suggested that she was a “best friend” of Tamra’s. However, according to Tamra, that wasn’t the case.

    “I’m like, ‘I invited you to a few things and you came to my gym … But by no means were we best friends,’“ she clarified.

    Reflecting on her comments about Jenn wanting to be her, Tamra said that the on-camera conversation was tricky because she was trying to explain herself without breaking the fourth wall.

    “I feel like she kind of honed in on me and started going to my gym and doing all these things,” Tamra noted.

    She then stated that she never called the old image she shared of Jenn a “fatty photo.”

    “She’s not fat. She had been coming to my gym. I met her at my gym … she was heavier than she is now, but by no means fat … She’s always had an amazing body, but now she’s very, very thin,” Tamra explained.

    Although Tamra acknowledged that Jenn had become “more vocal” in her confessionals, she didn’t note that as a good thing. Instead, she suggested Jenn used her interviews to paint a certain narrative.

    “[Jenn] and I are a lot different. She likes to play victim on things and drag things out,” she explained.

    Moving on to another castmate, Gretchen, Tamra said that despite her efforts to turn over a new leaf, she and Gretchen were unable to get to a better place amid filming.

    “I try all season long to get to a better place with her, and you’ll see as it goes on,” she teased.

    While Tamra has been accused of trash-talking Gretchen and her longtime fiance, Slade, Tamra insisted that she’s only repeated widely-known reports.

    “The only time I’ve ever said anything is when his son passed away, and the mother put out a statement on TMZ, and [Teddi Mellencamp] read it in our headlines. That was it … I made zero false allegations against Slade in my podcast … Teddi read the headlines,” she explained.

    Tamra also said she “never called” Slade a “deadbeat dad” before noting that she repeated the information found in the press.

    “‘Deadbeat dad?’” she asked. “It was in the press. If my husband wasn’t paying child support and it was in the press, do you think no one’s gonna bring it up?”

    “I also said, ‘This is Slade’s son, and that’s hard and it’s sad.’ I promoted the GoFundMe and Teddi, and I donated $1,000,” she continued. “[But] I feel like when people get stuck on things from the past, it’s because they’re true.”

    Looking back on her recent IG feud with Gretchen, Tamra said that when she called for more compassion from her castmates, she was not referring to Gretchen.

    “I don’t expect it from Gretchen or Jen .. Where I want it from like [Emily Simpson], Gina, and [Heather Dubrow], and Heather’s been very, very kind to me and has been through the process with me, and [Dr. Terry Dubrow] being a doctor, he got on the phone with me in the beginning when Teddi got sick and talked to me about things,” she revealed. “They were always there for me.”

    Tamra then admitted to regretting the post that sparked the feud, which saw Gretchen suggesting she was hypocritical for wanting sympathy when she didn’t give it to her when she went through hard times.

    “After I posted it, I’m like, ‘Why did I do that? I shouldn’t have done that. It was too impulsive, but now it’s out there. Sh*t, what do I do?’ By midday, I’m like, ‘Take it down,’” Tamra recalled of the message that additionally gave a nod to Shannon Beador‘s DUI.

    Also on Lala’s podcast, Tamra looked back on her FBI feud with Ryan, saying, “With the FBI, I didn’t just pull it out of my a**. It was out there. It came out.”

  • ‘RHOC’ Jennifer Pedranti’s Ex-Husband William Drags Ryan Boyajian Into Court Battle as Jennifer Blames Ex for Eviction & Claims He Failed to Pay Court-Ordered Lump Sum

    Jennifer Pedranti’s fiancé, Ryan Boyajian, has been dragged into her spousal support battle with ex-husband William Pedranti.

    As William, 52, attempts to have his spousal support payments to the 47-year-old Real Housewives of Orange County star terminated and his child support lowered, Ryan, 46, has been caught in the crossfire as William has signaled to their live-in relationship, prompting an emotional declaration from Jennifer.

    “I believe it is unfair to terminate spousal support because I am cohabitating with Ryan. The ONLY reason I am cohabitating with Ryan is because William left me with no other option,” Jennifer wrote to the court, according to an October 24 report from In Touch Weekly.

    Jennifer then noted that despite a court order, William, who she was married to from 2002 to 2022, never paid her the $267,000 he owed for the sale of their former marital home.

    “Had I received my half portion of the proceeds when William received it (which he should have done), I would have had the ability to pay my lease, and I would not have been evicted. Or, I would have had the means to secure my own place without Ryan. It would not be equitable for the court to consider my cohabitation with Ryan as a basis to end my support when William’s bad conduct forced me to do so,” she explained. “Furthermore, William was also aware at the time we entered the judgment that I was cohabitating with Ryan. Therefore, it is not a change of circumstance warranting consideration to terminate spousal support.”

    She then pulled William’s income declarations into question.

    “It should be noted William can apparently pay $2,300 per month for his car, but not pay court ordered support,” she said, signaling to the $4,674 a month child support and $1,735 a month spousal support payments.

    As RHOC fans may have seen, William recently requested his spousal support be terminated and his child support be lowered, noting that his and Jennifer’s son, Dawson, now lives with him, and accusing Jennifer of harassment, which she denies.

    “William’s claim that I make mean or disparaging comments about him is false. William will not communicate with me at all about our children, and simply ignores me,” she said. “The court will note none of my messages are harassing, mean, or disparaging. Please also note William has not responded to one of my several messages.”

    In his own court documents, William told the court, “Jennifer still lives with Ryan, and I believe has little to no living expenses (rent, utilities, car payment etc.) due to this living arrangement.”

    According to William, it was Jennifer’s inability to pay rent that led to her past eviction from a home in Ladera Ranch, California.

    “I am not a party to the lease agreement. Jennifer signed the lease agreement without first notifying me. If she had notified me beforehand, I would have not agreed to the terms of the lease (particularly the amount). We agreed to an uneven split of the amount of the rent since the children would be living there,” he shared. “Jennifer was not able to contribute anything toward the rent, and therefore, the rent was not able to be paid in full.”

  • Jim Bellino Shares How Much His Lawsuit Against Tamra Judge Cost, Plus RHOC Alum Reveals If Ryan Boyajian Will Sue Tamra for Slander and How Ryan Is Doing as Ryan Reacts

    Jim Bellino Shares How Much His Lawsuit Against Tamra Judge Cost, Plus RHOC Alum Reveals If Ryan Boyajian Will Sue Tamra for Slander and How Ryan Is Doing as Ryan Reacts

    Jim Bellino revealed if his friend Ryan Boyajian will follow through with his purported lawsuit against Tamra Judge after the Real Housewives of Orange County star accused him of stealing money from a Dodgers player.

    Jim, who was married to castmate Alexis Bellino — and who successfully sued Tamra for slander in 2018 — shared how much money his own lawsuit cost. He also addressed how Ryan is doing now. Ryan previously indicated that he hired the same lawyer Jim used.

    After Tamra made the accusation against Ryan on Watch What Happens Live, she quickly issued an apology and hinted that she doesn’t know much about the allegation that Ryan is somehow involved in a gambling investigation.

    On The Sarah Fraser Show, Jim was asked if Ryan really hired the same lawyer Jim used to sue Tamra.

    “That’s correct, Jeff Neary,” said Jim. “Jeff’s an amazing lawyer. He’s an expert on slander and defamation.”

    The host then asked if Jim believes Ryan and Jeff will actually sue Tamra for slander.

    “The papers that were served [to Tamra] to my knowledge are cease-and-desist and [an] order for an apology,” he shared.

    The host speculated that Ryan won’t sue Tamra so long as she apologizes and stops speaking his name.

    “Listen, I spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on this,” commented Jim of his own past lawsuit. “Nobody wants to sue anybody. I can promise you it’s very emotionally draining. It’s like a divorce. And what surprises me, knowing how much money and emotion Tamra went through, why she would put herself in this position saying statements [as if] fact, like he was raided by the FBI and that he stole money from a baseball player.”

    “Those are actionable offenses,” he continued. “So the fact that Ryan is only requiring an apology, that says something about his character. I think that he realizes — and I’ve actually spoke with Ryan about this — that if you can get the apology, don’t go through with the lawsuit, just because it’s draining.”

    As for how Ryan is doing, Jim explained, “He’s great. He’s just a very even guy. Very chill. I think he handles himself very well in these situations, but he’s not gonna take any s**t. So, it’s on right now.”

    In the comments of the interview, Ryan shared his reaction.

    “JimmyB Speaking Only FACTS,” he wrote.

    RHOC’s Jennifer Pedranti is Back in Court With Ex William Weeks After the Exes Reached Divorce Settlement as Details & Hearing Date Are Revealed

    Jennifer Pedranti reportedly returned to divorce court shortly after a divorce agreement was reached with her ex William Pedranti. The former couple, who got married in 2002 and broke up in 2021, have disputed the financial situation amid the divorce.

    In July, the exes reportedly reached a settlement – three years after their split. She apparently was awarded a total of $6,000 a month from William in child and spousal support. The Real Housewives of Orange County star is now in a relationship with Ryan Boyajian, who hinted that he’s suing her co-star Tamra Judge (who accused him of stealing from a Dodgers baseball player).

    In Touch obtained court documents claiming that Jennifer returned to divorce court weeks after working out the agreement with William.

    Per the documents, Jennifer demanded that her ex appear in court for a financial examination, claiming she needed this info to assist in the “enforcement of a money judgment” against him.

    Judge Julie Palafox granted Jennifer’s request, and the court scheduled the examination for 8:30 a.m. on October 21 – while ordering William to show up in court with paperwork to aid Jennifer in collecting the money owed to her.

    The notice addressed William directly: “If you fail to appear at the time and place specified in this order, you may be subject to arrest and punishment for contempt of court, and the court may make an order requiring you to pay the reasonable attorney fees incurred by the judgment creditor in this proceeding.”

    Before the July settlement, Jennifer’s attorney asserted, “[Jennifer] requires assistance to cover essential living expenses for herself and her children, such as rent, food and educational costs. While [William] currently covers healthcare expenses, additional support is needed to meet the financial requirements for the children’s activities, as well as their food and clothing expenses.”

    Allegedly, after Jennifer’s new boyfriend Ryan sent Tamra a cease and desist, Tamra apologized twice for making the accusations against him on Watch What Happens Live. Vicki Gunvalson, however, said Ryan isn’t suing Tamra yet. Alum Kelly Dodd recently suggested that multiple castmates should form a class-action lawsuit against Tamra for her alleged slander.

    RHOC’s Emily Simpson Reveals the “Rudest Bravolebrity,” If Shannon Should’ve Accepted Alexis’ Olive Branch, and Questions Heather’s Jeans-Gate Apology, Plus If Tamra is Projecting Her Drinking Habits Onto Shannon

    Emily Simpson labeled Vicki Gunvalson as the “rudest Bravolebrity” while appearing on Thursday night’s episode of Watch What Happens Live.

    While also addressing Alexis Bellino‘s olive branch to Shannon Beador, 60, her jeans-gate drama with Heather Dubrow, 55, and Tamra Judge‘s apology to Ryan Boyajian, 46, the 48-year-old Real Housewives of Orange County star threw some shade at the OG of the O.C. and at John Janssen, 61.

    “It would be Victoria Gunvalson. I love Vicki, but she can be really rude to other people,” Emily admitted on the October 3 episode of WWHL after being asked who was the rudest Bravo star.

    As for Alexis’ olive branch, which she extended on Thursday night’s RHOC, Emily proclaimed, “No,” when asked if she should’ve accepted it.

    She also didn’t think that Shannon should have softened her “you’re not invited [to London] text.”

    “I feel like she did soften it. I feel like there was a first draft … [She should’ve gone] harder!” Emily stated.

    Looking back at how Alexis kicked Jennifer Pedranti, 47, and Katie Ginella, 40, out of her house, seemingly “shooting the messengers” after they spoke about their upcoming trip across the pond and mentioned John’s lawsuit against Shannon, Emily didn’t think she had a right to be mad at the ladies.

    ”I say no. She needs to be mad at herself,” Emily suggested.

    Regarding her drama with Heather, who had her bring her own jeans to her fashion show, causing Emily to be triggered due to her issues with her weight, Emily clarified that she was not trying to blame Heather for anything when she brought it up at a group event.

    “I was trying to speak from my heart about how I felt. I wasn’t trying to place blame anywhere. But it just went haywire with Alexis being there,” she explained.

    Although Heather ultimately apologized, Gina Kirschenheiter, 40, wondered if her words were genuine or calculated. And Emily seemed to have questions as well.

    “I felt like she was saying what she thought that she should say,” Emily noted, adding that she “never” thought Heather intended to hurt her.

    That said, Emily didn’t appreciate her shady confessional, in which Heather mentioned that her dress was “tight.”

    “I was really taken aback by that because I felt it was a hit, an unnecessary hit and it actually just proved my point, that I’m upset because people say things about me and then you took a hit and said something about me,” she shared.

    Moving on to Tamra, Emily was asked if her co-star was deflecting her own drinking habits onto Shannon.

    “I don’t think so. I know Tamra off-camera and Tamra doesn’t drink a lot off-camera. I think that’s why she doesn’t hold her alcohol well, is because she doesn’t drink all the time,” Emily reasoned.

    As for the recent drama surrounding Tamra’s claims against Ryan, and her apology for suggesting he had stolen from a Los Angeles Dodgers player, Emily said she did not think Tamra was truly sorry for what she said about Ryan or Jennifer.

    Also mentioning Jennifer, Emily said it was “probably Jenn” who annoyed Shane Simpson most, although she also stated that he “likes Jenn.”

    She then hinted that she’s seen red flags in Alexis, 47, and John’s relationship but wouldn’t say what they were, explaining, “I don’t want to get sued.”

    Also on the live show, Emily said that Alexis was the co-star who would have the hardest time passing the bar and reacted to a fan who wanted to know why John gave a statement to PEOPLE magazine about his breakup with Shannon if he was truly a private person.

    “Why does he do anything he does? Why does he go on the red carpet? Why does he go to [WWHL]? Why does he show up at everything? I don’t know,” she replied. “Mr. Private Person is very public.”

    Later on Thursday, amid the WWHL: After Show, Emily was asked how she felt ahead of filming on the reunion.

    “I think it’s gonna be very intense. I think there’s gonna be a lot,” she admitted. “I don’t feel like I’m in the hot seat, but I definitely have opinions about everything, which I will feel free to insert at all times.”

    Jim Bellino Seemingly Calls Out Tamra Judge for Allegedly Defaming Ryan Boyajian and Talks “Unresolved Bitterness” Toward RHOC Star, Plus He Reacts to Claim About Eddie as Ryan and Kelly Dodd React

    Alexis Bellino’s ex-husband Jim Bellino seemingly called out Tamra Judge for allegedly defaming Ryan Boyajian – who’s now suing the Real Housewives of Orange County star. Jim also hinted at his own “slander and defamation” lawsuit in 2018, and Ryan and Kelly Dodd reacted.

    Last week, Ryan shared that he’s suing Tamra after she accused him on Watch What Happens Live of stealing money from a Dodgers baseball player. Later on, she issued two separate apologies.

    In 2018, Jim sued Tamra for slander after she and Shannon Beador spoke negatively about him on a podcast. According to a report, he won $1 million from Tamra when they settled. Now, Ryan is allegedly hiring the same attorney Jim used. As for Kelly, she’s considering a class-action lawsuit against Tamra, who allegedly accused her of “suck[ing] d**k for money.”

    “Six years ago, I had to sue a public figure for slander and defamation,” said Jim in a September 29 Instagram post, presumably referring to Tamra. “I won that case, but what I didn’t realize was I was not healed. And the reason I realized that is because just 72 hours ago, this same person, a public figure, slandered and defamed a friend of mine.”

    Jim said he had “unresolved bitterness and anger” toward this person.

    “It brought back really bad unresolved issues of anger and frustration,” Jim explained. “Right now I forgive you for the things that you said and the damage that you caused me and my family.”

    He then told followers to take the high road.

    “If you have unresolved bitterness or anger toward somebody, forgive them whether they’re right or wrong,” he said, “because it only hurts you to have to deal with that within yourself without releasing it to God.”

    In the comments, a fan then seemingly alluded to Tamra’s husband.

    “Eddie has one foot out the door,” wrote @damnnn_gina78. “You can forgive, but you never forget.”

    “Exactly,” Jim responded to the fan.

    Ryan himself wrote: “Proud of you JimmyB – NONE OF THIS IS OK. #MakeChangeHappen.”

    Kelly then shared her own reaction.

    “I’m Catholic!!! F**K THAT B**CH!” she exclaimed. “[Ryan] dude you’re my homie ❤️.”

    Jennifer Pedranti Suggests Eddie “Tried to Stop” Tamra From Exposing Ryan Gambling Allegations, Shades Tamra’s “Crocodile Tears” & Claims “Trash” Tamra Had No Problem With Ryan “Before Cameras Went up,” Plus Live Viewing Thread

    Jennifer Pedranti claimed Tamra Judge had no problem with her fiancé Ryan Boyajian “before cameras went up” on Real Housewives of Orange County, and she suggested that her husband Eddie “tried to stop” her from exposing the recent allegations against Ryan, who was purportedly accused of being involved in a gambling scandal. She also shaded Tamra’s “crocodile tears.”

    Last season, Tamra went after Ryan on camera, making several derogatory claims about his character. In response, Ryan did a podcast interview to defend himself and made a few accusations against Tamra and Eddie in the process.

    In a preview for the upcoming episode, shared by @therealhousewiveszone on Instagram, Tamra confronted Ryan for “talking mad s**t” about her as a “mom” and Eddie as a “businessman” on the podcast.

    Ryan said he feels “validated” in “everything I said” based on how Tamra and Eddie treated him last season.

    Ryan denied that he ever talked badly of Eddie as a businessman, and he said he was Eddie’s friend until Eddie claimed somebody told him that Ryan goes after married women.

    “Why would I make that up?” asked Eddie after Ryan claimed it didn’t happen.

    In a confessional, Tamra declared that Ryan indeed goes after married women, and she claimed that Jennifer was married when they first got together.

    Jennifer reacted to the clip on her Instagram Stories.

    “Can we PLEASE link the podcast from last year,” asked Jennifer, referring to Ryan’s past interview. “This woman [Tamra] for an ENTIRE year drug my man’s name through the MUD. Remember BEFORE cameras went up she never had ONE problem with Ryan (#neededastoryline).”

    “She has over a million followers and her own podcast and TRASHED Ryan regularly. He went on ONE podcast and spoke his truth,” she went on. “How ironic that she TRASH talks people on the regular and if ONE person says anything back it’s crocodile tears or drunk slurring her words.”

    Jennifer then suggested that Eddie “tried to stop” Tamra “SEVERAL times” in the scene before she brought up Ryan’s allegations.

    “And after she STUMBLED out of Katie’s home yelling FALSE STATEMENTS the guys had a very civilized conversation,” said the star. “We just had to take the trash out so that could happen.”

    During an interview with Kelly Dodd, 48, and Rick Leventhal, 64, days ago, Jim, 62, said he believes Alexis, 47, who is currently engaged to Shannon Beador‘s ex-boyfriend, John Janssen, 60, was “used” for a storyline as he reacted to claims of Alexis and John’s romance being “staged,” threw shade at Bravo, and more.

    “I believe in being all in … If Alexis is going on the show, I think she should’ve been one of the housewives, which she was offered that role,” Jim noted on Patreon’s The Rick & Kelly Show. “To be a friend I don’t agree with because she’s got her toe in the water and frankly, you became a housewife and got used for that role without getting paid for it. That’s just my honest opinion. She should’ve dove in and done it all.”

    According to Jim, Alexis would have made five times as much if she’d signed on in a full-time role.

    “It’s a lot more money. Times five. I believe Alexis is a very important part of the show this year and didn’t get paid for it,” he stated. “Had I been consulting her, I would’ve advised her differently. And I did tell her, ‘Do the whole show.’ I personally believe through her wardrobe, makeup, everything, she lost money.”

    “You need to make sure you get paid,” he added, admitting that he didn’t “agree with” Alexis’ decision to return.

    Because Alexis returned to the show just as she embarked on a romance with John, who had dated Shannon in previous seasons, many accused her of “plotting” her comeback. But Jim doesn’t believe that’s the case.

    “To be very clear — and I was a witness to this because Alexis called me — before she ever met John Janssen, she was asked to be on the show,” Jim clarified. “It just so happened she met John Janssen after she agreed to be on the show and that all morphed. Was it a benefit to Bravo? Was it a benefit to Alexis’ storyline? Yes. It was. But Bravo benefited more than anybody.”

    Jim also said Alexis’ relationship with John was simply an “amazing coincidence” before joking that it was producers who set the two of them up at A Restaurant last year.

    “I wouldn’t be surprised,” he laughed. “I’m joking by the way. Alexis really did struggle with the decision of being back on the show or not. She went back and forth and back and forth.”

    Although Alexis was unsure of returning, Jim said he doubted she regretted the decision, saying, “My gut would say no.”

    “I think she likes when things play out publicly. I’m not saying this was intentional. I believe they authentically met at A Restaurant. I believe that it was a perfect scenario for the show and by the way, let’s clear it up right now so nobody ever asks me this question again: Do you believe that relationship was staged?’ One hundred percent no. I believe that relationship authentically happened through happenstance of them meeting and it’s just a cause and effect that it was the perfect scenario. And once again, as usual, Bravo wins,” he stated.

    Alexis and John certainly have their doubters. And, as Jim shared, he doesn’t know John’s intentions.

    “I really don’t. The verdicts out. Alexis is aware but naive at the same time. We’ll see. That’s to be determined — for all of us to watch,” he noted. “If I was flipping a coin, I think it’s 50/50. She has a good heart. Her intentions are 100 percent pure.”

    Speaking of the current cast of RHOC, Jim said he felt sorry for Ryan Boyajian, 47, the fiance of Jennifer Pedranti, 47, who faced the wrath of certain cast members, namely Tamra Judge, 57, after he was linked to the $16 million MLB scandal involving Los Angeles Dodgers player Shohei Ohtani, 30.

    “I have my own opinion of how Bravo depicts men. I feel sorry for [Ryan Boyajian], who’s with [Jennifer Pedranti], I think they’re really cool people. It’s a no-win for him though,” he said. “And we don’t know, which is why you don’t find a lot of quality men agreeing to do the show anymore. He is a quality man.”

    Jim also took issue with the fact that most of the women of RHOC aren’t actually housewives — and some don’t even live in Orange County.

    “I don’t understand why Tamra living in Big Bear and [Heather Dubrow] living in Beverly Hills has any relevance to Real Housewives of Orange County. I think Real Housewives of Orange County should be about Real Housewives of Orange County,” he stated. “How many housewives are married and living in Orange County? Alexis is divorced. Heather is in Beverly Hills. Tamra is in Big Bear. I believe [Emily Simpson] is a real housewife in Orange County. [Gina Kirschenheiter]’s not married. I think two out of the seven are Real Housewives of Orange County.”

    The Real Housewives of Orange County season 18 airs Thursdays at 9/8c on Bravo.

    Season 18 of The Real Housewives of Orange County recently returned, and fans have quite a bit to devour. Among the storylines from the show that made headlines was Jennifer Pedranti‘s fiance, Ryan Boyajian, being linked to a massive gambling scandal.

    As was previously reported, filming for the season picked up after it had concluded in order to catch the goings on with the situation. Now, she’s opening up about the scandal, the issues with Gina Kirschenheiter, Tamra Judge, and more. 

    As fans know, Jennifer joined RHOC during the show’s 17th season. This means she’s still a fairly new housewife, but she is expected to dominate much of this new season due to the gambling scandal, which involved money being wired illegally to multiple accounts and then laundered through casinos. Jennifer and Ryan started dating in 2020. 

    Recently, she sat down with Housewives Nightcap from Access Hollywood and discussed RHOC, the gambling allegations against Ryan, and much more. 

    She starts by discussing how this season is different than her first. She says, “There was a lot that went on in my life, like, I’m telling you, I think everything that could happen to a person probably happened in this last season of filming.”

    Regarding what made season one difficult, she says, “Season one was hard because my friendship with Tamra was very difficult, and Tamra is a very strong personality, so I was navigating that and finding a new normal within a friendship.”

    She goes on, “Season two is hard because my real life really got shaken up and it affected me, it affected my kids, it affected my relationship, it affected my ex. I mean truly, like, everything kind of got pulled out from under me, and I lived it on camera. “

    However, she also says that navigating the drama on camera was an afterthought to how she and her family were going to handle it. 

    The topic of Jennifer being evicted from the home that Gina helped her get also came up, and she said she understood why Gina was upset. She also says she believed she was doing all she could. 

    Regarding her drama with Gina, she says, “I understand her side. The thing that’s hard for me is I’m not a woman who would take down another woman’s career. I respect Gina’s career and I respect what that girl has done at her young age.”

    The conversation then turns to Jennifer finalizing her divorce from ex-husband William Pedranti. When asked how she’s feeling, Jennifer responds by saying, “Wow, that took four years.  Unfortunately, I have no communication with my ex, and so it’s hard, it’s hard. I’m so grateful that it’s finalized.”

    She then said that being married to her ex made her and Ryan feel tethered to the past. She also hopes that she and Ryan can now be friends with her ex-husband. 

    Regarding the gambling scandal, Jennifer had this to say about why she’s sticking by him, “I would stick by him through anything. I know Ryan, and I communicate about everything, so this was not like some bomb that dropped on Ryan and I. We’ve been going through this with our best friends for a long time.”

    She then says, “You just have to give it time. Ryan’s not involved in it.”

    Jennifer also expresses that she felt guilty over her stardom “shedding light” on him for something he didn’t do. 

    Regarding how she felt about some of her castmates meeting and discussing the situation, she says, “I met with Katie and Gina, and they had concerns; anybody would, but you know what they did? They sat me down, and they’re like, girl, what the heck is this guy doing? Are you okay? Are your kids okay?”

    She goes on to say who she didn’t hear from.

    “I did not hear from Tamra, and I didn’t hear from Emily, but Tamra doesn’t surprise me. Emily, I would have liked to have heard from, but I didn’t.”

    She then talks about how this changed things for her and Ryan. 

    “When it printed, we were like, oh my gosh. It was like we were on the biggest high and then the lowest low, and we had to just come back together and say we know the truth, we’re good.”

    The interviewer asked for her take on the Shannon Beador and Alexis Bellino situation. She says, “I can’t.” She goes on to say that Alexis and John Janssen have real love, and she believes they will go the distance. However, she also supports Shannon. 

    Regarding Tamra, Jennifer says, “Tamra and I were in a great spot, like, we were really moving forward and even so much we wanted the guys to move forward.”

    She continues, “Tamra does what Tamra does, and you’ll have to see it.”
