The OG of The OC, Vicki Gunvalson, was asked back for the 20th season of Real Housewives of Orange County, but announced today she’s returning for an additional show on Bravo as well!
Booked and busy:
During an appearance on The Viall Files podcast, Vicki confirmed she’s filming Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Road Trip in January of 2026.
Immediately after, RHOC will pick up cameras for season 20 in mid-February.
This isn’t the first time Vicki filmed RHUGT:
Never forget, Vicki was one of the Moroccan UGT that never aired. Brandi Glanville allegedly sexually assaulted Caroline Manzo while filming.
In case you missed it, Brandi was removed prematurely from filming RHUGT after she allegedly touched the former Real Housewives of New Jersey star‘s private area and kissed her without consent. NBC Universal quickly released a statement.
“The safety and security of cast and crew while shooting is extremely important and we take all reports seriously. In this situation, production immediately launched a comprehensive review and is taking appropriate action.”
In addition to Caroline, Brandi, and Vicki, Phaedra Parks, Camille Grammer Meyer, Alex McCord, Gretchen Rossi, and Eva Marcille filmed Ultimate Girls Trip in Morocco.
What we know about Vicki’s RHOC return:
Vicki has maintained an off-camera friendship with Shannon Storms Beador since she’s been off the show. But Vicki’s been spending time with Tamra Judge the last few months.
Just days ago, Vicki and Tamra made a joint post on Instagram with Katie Ginella. Online gossip ensued that there was a Next Gen of the Tres Amigas.
