Vicki Gunvalson Wants Alexis Bellino Fired: Tamra Barney & Gretchen Rossi Confirm
There’s fakery on Real Housewives of Orange County outside of the implants and the face lifts (and the nose jobs that require protracted histrionics beforehand).
Last week, there was unrest in the wake of the Costa Rica episodes during which the ladies held a contrived “You’re stuck up, Alexis” intervention for Alexis Bellino who, honestly, is no more shallow than the rest of the cast. Following the attack from the other women, Bellino retired to her hotel room where she turned away Gretchen Rossi (who joined in with the melee) but spoke with Vicki Gunvalson who physically barged into the room just to talk about herself and pull focus.
Reports claimed that Gunvalson instructed the other women after the dinner to write letters imploring the higher ups at Bravo to fire Bellino. This is supposedly after Gunvalson spent hours writing a letter of her own. Although Rossi, Tamra Barney, and Heather Dubrow all declined.
Gunvalson denies the conspiracy, telling RumorFix.com: “OMG this 100% false! Absolutely not. I love Alexis. This is a lie! I never wrote a letter, never said anything of the sorts, nor would I.”
Gunvalson continued, in response to fans on Twitter: “Obviously someone has nothing to do in their day than to make up S**. I was there 2!” And: “@RumorFix @AlexisBellino This is a lie.No letter was ever written.! WE all wanted 2 leave.” In response to a fan questioning the arguing on Twitter, she said: “I agree. I’d prefer her to talk face to face 2 me than air this dirty laundry over the internet.Seems childish.” (Gunvalson also says she’s still friends with Dubrow, and she denies being used by boyfriend Brooks Ayers “Using me for what? The farthest thing I am is an idiot thank you!”)
However, two of the five women from the dinner call shenanigans (Dubrow is staying pretty quiet on Twitter).
Barney tweeted: “@RumorFix I can confirm that is 100% true and so can @GretchenRossi and everyone else that was there.” Rossi re-tweeted Barney’s statement, adding, “100% this is true!”
