Gina Kirschenheiter calling Jennifer Pedranti a “squatter” on the most recent episode of the Real Housewives of Orange County will forever live rent free in my mind.

Gina and Jennifer’s kerfuffle divided RHOC fans.
On one hand, Gina should appear “softer” given the parallels between the two single moms. On the other hand, Gina vouched for Jenn to move into a rental Jenn knowingly couldn’t afford. With Gina’s newfound real estate career, it’s reasonable for her to not want her credibility questioned.
Truthfully, I did understand Gina’s hypersensitivity. She’s done a lot of work to course correct after her divorce and DUI.
The question is, is it team too much?
While on Watch What Happens Live, Gina explained why she was so hard on Jennifer.
“We’ve booth been separated from our exes about the same time,” the New Yorker explains.
“We’ve had a very different way of handling it.”
In case you missed it: Jennifer and her now ex-husband Will, tied the knot in 2002, and split in 2021. The couple share 5 children together. After the split, Will stayed in Oklahoma and Jennifer relocated to Orange County where she lives with her now fiancé, Ryan Boyajian.
As we know, Gina Kirschenheiter split from her ex Matt in 2019. The separation, reconciliation, and subsequent divorce can be seen season 14 of RHOC.
Back to present day OC
Jennifer moved in with Ryan as a result of being evicted from her current rental.
“I swear as soon as she got in there she was going to be booted,” Gina confessed to Andy.
“[Ryan] is so structured and regimented, and [Jennifer’s] so free.”
Having some space from the situation, she realizes that she was harder on Jenn than she normally would be.
The situation “collided” with her effort of “trying to take care of me, and mine.”
Watch for yourself!
