“I don’t try and ice anyone out,” Shannon begins in the preview clip.
“So you didn’t call production in the middle of the season and say, ‘I’m uncomfortable. I feel unsafe around Katie. I want Gretchen to have her orange. I want her out?’ You didn’t say that?” Katie asks.
“Absolutely not,” Shannon replies.
Katie then turns to Jennifer Pedranti, 48, and asks if Shannon had a phone call with Alex.
“I’m supposed to know if Shannon had a phone call? We’re doing this again?” Jenn fires back.
According to Katie, she heard from Jenn that Shannon had called Alex prior to their trip to New Orleans.
“Alex told you that?” Jenn asks.
“No, you told me that,” Katie clarifies.
As Katie places the blame on Jenn, Andy Cohen, 57, intervenes, telling the cast that he’s gotten word from Alex that his supposed chat with Shannon never happened.
“Alex just said in my ear that they never spoke,” he reveals.
At another moment of the RHOC reunion, Andy asks the cast who they’re closest to from another city.
“Bronwyn and I talk a lot, so maybe Bronwyn,” Katie answers.
Meanwhile, Shannon names
As for the other ladies,
“I just went to dinner with Dolores and [Dorinda Medley] in New York. I’m pretty much friends with most of the housewives,” she shares.
Also in the preview, Shannon reflects on an “expensive” spa visit, and the cast names their best-dressed co-star, with Shannon, Katie, and Jenn picking Heather, and Heather and Jenn applauding Katie’s style.
The Real Housewives of Orange County season 19 reunion begins next Thursday, November 6, at 8/7c on Bravo.
RHOC’s Gretchen Rossi Explains Her Lack of Reaction to Claims of ‘Liking’ Anti-LGBTQ Posts as Tamra Reveals What Made it “Worse” and Emily Shares What Was “Concerning”
Gretchen Rossi was accused of “liking” a series of controversial posts, including homophobic messages and anti-abortion rights statements, on Thursday’s finale episode of the 19th season of The Real Housewives of Orange County
As Gretchen, 47, explained why she didn’t have much to say after the accusations were made, her co-stars, including
“I was so confused because, in my heart, I’m like, ‘There’s no way I would’ve liked a post like that.’ What am I supposed to say to this? I know fundamentally in my heart what I feel and how I believe, so, but it’s like, how are you supposed to defend that in that moment?” Gretchen wondered on the October 30 episode of the
“I thought you would have come unhinged if you knew in your soul that it was not you,”
Meanwhile, Emily, who said she would have been “livid” if similar accusations were made against her, expected Gretchen to lash out at Tamra.
“I thought that her reaction would’ve been, ‘F*ck you, Tamra. This is you creating bullsh*t about me.’ And that’s what I thought the reaction might be, and then I was gonna sit and analyze that. But there was no reaction from her,” she noted as Tamra added that Gretchen’s lack of a reaction “made it worse.”
“If someone was accusing me of something, you just want to go, ‘How can I prove that this is ridiculous, that this is so not true?’” Heather reasoned.
As for what else raised a red flag for Emily, she gave a nod to Gretchen’s chat with
“The other things that was concerning for me is that she showed no emotion or really any kind of reaction until after she spoke to Slade. I don’t know where you land because I can’t tell what’s genuinely you and what’s Slade guiding you,” she explained.
Elsewhere, Shannon said she “can’t imagine” that Gretchen did what she’s accused of.
“I’ve seen a kind, devoted mom, [a] faith-based gal, and a girl who has a lot of friends in the LGBTQ community. So I don’t know. I’m waiting with you to see what happens,” she told Heather. “Something doesn’t make sense about all of it.”
Shannon then noted that everyone reacts differently to different scenarios.
“Shannon Beador laughs. Gretchen just was blindsided and like, ‘What?’ And some people are [deer] in the [headlights] and some people go, and they’re very vocal about what’s going on. So I don’t want to judge her based on her reaction,” she concluded.
The three-part Real Housewives of Orange County season 19 reunion begins next Thursday, November 6, at 8/7c on Bravo.
