30 Funny Quotes From The Real Housewives Of Orange County About Drama, Feuds & (Of Course) Wine
We're here to drink wine!
The Real Housewives of Orange County (RHOC) is a hit reality television on Bravo that came out in 2006 and is currently on the air. It follows the housewives that live in Orange County, like Tamra Judge, Shannon Beador, Kelly Dodd, Vicki Gunvalson, and Emily Simpson, to name a few.
The Real Housewives of Orange County is part of The Real Housewives franchise, like the other spin-off shows from regions like, The Real Housewives of New York, The Real Housewives of New Jersey, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, The Real Housewives of Atlanta, The Real Housewives of Dallas, The Real Housewives of Miami, The Real Housewives of Potomac, and The Real Housewives of Washington D.C.
The one thing all these shows have in common is that they are all centered on wealthy women who fight ... a lot! As an audience member, you never know whose side to be on because the drama comes from every character. Who can forget the huge fight between Shannon Beader and Heather Dubrow which resulted in Heather kicking Shannon out of her house? Or the iconic fight between Vicki Gunvalson and Tamra Judge (for extra credit you can play a drinking game along with it and drink every time they say the words “evil eye”)?
Most fights begin with a housewife saying something along the lines of “I don’t want to start drama but I have to say…” and then they drop the ultimate drama-starting bomb. Every episode is filled with gossip, revenge, and passive aggressive comments. If that isn’t the recipe for a good night of guilt-free binge-watching with wine in hand, then I don’t know what is.
It is also very exciting to see the showdowns between the housewives happen at extravagant dinners and lavish parties. They all spend an incredible amount of money on their often-catered events, just to start fights again. It is a sight to see because they all say the most shocking and offensive statements to each other and dramatically fight about problems that are hard for us audience members to understand.
Indulging in the Real Housewives of Orange County is definitely a guilty pleasure I can get behind.
