Vicki Gunvalson Talks About "The Real Housewives of Orange County"


KansasCity.com:
Most moms with something to say to their grown children would pick up a phone.


But when your mom is Vicki Gunvalson, one of the “Real Housewives of Orange County,” you get used to having those heart-to-hearts under the glare of TV lights.


Which is why daughter Briana Gunvalson, exhausted though she is from an all-night nursing shift, is coming over for breakfast.


She steers her Mercedes SUV along streets named Polo and Shire en route to her parents’ 5,500-square-foot McMansion inside Orange County’s largest gated community.


She walks into the kitchen, and there is Vicki — along with four people in black shirts who are capturing the scene on video. Episode after episode, Vicki has come to be known as a somewhat bossy, slightly daffy mother and businesswoman whose insurance firm has swelled since she was cast as one of the original “housewives” six years ago.


Right now Vicki is asking 25-year-old Briana why she hasn’t brought over her new boyfriend.


“Mom, you’re a little intense!” says Briana.


“I’ll be low-key,” says Vicki. Pause. “I’ll just check him for tattoos.”
