Some of the stars of The Real Housewives of Orange County are already gearing up for the Season 11 reunion show. On Sunday, the “OG of the OC,” Vicki Gunvalson, posted a photo of herself out in Beverly Hills with co-star Kelly Dodd shopping for reunion show dresses. Vicki proclaimed on Facebook that the upcoming reunion is going to be good.

Before the photo, Vicki posted a short video of herself and Kelly in which they expressed excitement for the reunion show, which will be filming next month. They made it clear that they aren’t scared or anxious about the upcoming event, despite the fact that both of them have had a lot of drama with the other women and have been the subject of a lot of controversies so far this season. Vicki, with Kelly in agreement, said that they’re ready to do the reunion and that the other women won’t be able to take them down.

“So what do you guys think? Are you ready for the reunion? ‘Cause we’re so ready. We’re so ready, we’re so ready. We saw what the other girls posted, said ‘Getting ready for the reunion.’ Well we’re ready. We’re ready for the reunion. It’s next month. It’s gonna be the fall and what do they have on us? Nothing. Go ahead. Bring it on.”
Earlier in the day, before shopping, Vicki and Kelly met up with some other friends for lunch .

In response to one viewer who left a comment telling Vicki that she and Kelly can leave The Real Housewives of Orange County , Vicki proclaimed that she and Kelly aren’t going anywhere.
“Nah!! We aren’t going anywhere”
Vicki has been with the show since the very first season so it’s likely that she has given Kelly, for whom the upcoming reunion show will be her first one, pointers and advice on how to get through the long day and all of the drama that inevitably comes with filming the reunion show. It’s also likely that Kelly and Vicki will be sitting next to one another on the same couch at the reunion show, given the fact that they became friends right at the beginning of the season and have remained friends since then. As viewers have seen, Kelly has stuck up for and defended Vicki despite the other housewives, still believing that Vicki helped her ex, Brooks Ayers, lie about having cancer last season, warning her to stay away.
Besides looking forward to the season 11 reunion show, Vicki Gunvalson is already looking towards the next season. On Saturday, she posted a video of herself in a car with her boyfriend, Steve Lodge, and friends Briana and Brian. Heading to a bar that Kelly Dodd recommended, Vicki talked about wanting the next season to be more light and fun, in contrast to the current season’s negativity and fighting. Vicki repeatedly said that she wants her friend, Briana, to join the cast. Briana giggled and laughed loudly throughout the video as her husband, Brian, guzzled alcohol from the bottle and chimed in with agreeable comments.

“I’m thinking she’s my new cast member for season 12. What do you guys think? I’m thinking like normal girl, beautiful, hardworking, businesswoman…So Briana’s from Atlanta. She’s moving here to Orange County and I’m thinking season 12 is calling her name. We need to maybe dilute some of the negativity on this cast and say goodbye to some of the people and bring in some happy people that are hardworking and know how to have some fun…I’m just thinking like, enough with the negativity. I’m over it. I’m 54. I’m done with the negativity…11 years later, here I am…Get the girls off that want to hurt each other and bring in women that build each other up.”
Who does Vicki want off the cast? One person she’s likely thinking of is Shannon Beador, her former friend who has refused to accept her back as a friend because of the whole Brooks Ayers cancer drama. On her blogs and social media, Shannon has made it clear that she still believes that Vicki knowingly lied about Brooks having cancer and that she does not want Vicki in her life as a friend ever again. As previously reported by the Inquisitr , Shannon said in July that it’s “undisputable” that Vicki was in on Brook’s cancer scam.

In her Facebook video, Vicki Gunvalson also gave an update on her romantic life. She said that she’s very happy with Steve and that they’re in love. Perhaps viewers will see him, along with Vicki’s friend Briana, on the next season of The Real Housewives of Orange County ?
“I am with a really solid guy. Like, he loves me, like, we’re good. We’re good. I’m thinking I’ve met my soul mate.”
