The Real Housewives of Orange County Reunion Show; Real Drama of Orange County

Gretchen gets choked up when asked about Jeff. He passed away on September 13, and spent his last moments with her. They held each other as he took his last breath. She still wears her engagement ring, and said she did not want to be married in a hospital room, because she did not want people questioning her motives. She also said she did not receive '˜millions and millions' of dollars when he died, and was not his beneficiary. She said his children should have his money.

Tamra had some interesting things to say about Gretchen. When asked why she said Gretchen was a caretaker for Jeff, and they were not really a '˜couple,' she hesitates for a few seconds, then explains. She said she received a call from a man claiming to be Gretchen's boyfriend, late one evening, after Gretchen apparently got in a fight with him and kicked him out of the car. He called Tamra from the side of the road, and said if Gretchen didn't come back and pick him up, he would let everyone know about their relationship. Tamra said this man text messaged her a few hours later thanking her for convincing Gretchen to work things out with him. She also said this same man called a few days later, and spoke with her husband, Simon. She said the two men spoke for nearly an hour, and this guy spilled all the beans about Gretchen being paid to take care of Jeff. Gretchen looked terrified, like someone just let the cat out of the bag. She denied having a relationship with this guy. At first she told Tamra that he was a stalker, but on the reunion show she said this guy was an ex-boyfriend. Another interesting fact, earlier in the season Tamra told Gretchen that she should not have gone to Bass Lake, on a vacation with her family, while Jeff was in the hospital dying. Tamra said this mysterious boyfriend/stalker was at the Lake with her! Gretchen confirmed that this guy was there, but he's just a '˜family friend'.

Vicki said she and Don are working on their relationship, and things are getting better. Her love tank isn't '˜filled up' yet, but it's getting there.

Jeanna didn't have much to say. She was asked by a viewer if her daughter Kara had a breast augmentation, and she said she was pretty sure she did.

Laurie said she is still living the '˜fairy tale life' sometimes, describing many nights when she and George ride off into the sunset on their horses or walk through the rose gardens. She said with seven children there are also many days of flu and sickness, so it's not a complete fairy tale, but rewarding none the less. Her son Josh, who has had a history of drug abuse, is in jail for two more days. But she says she finally recognizes him again, he is 6-foot-2 now, and has put all of his weight back on.

In all it was a pretty good show, I would have liked to see Jo there, but since she was only on one episode I guess she didn't have much of a place there.
