I thought it was a double recap night, but am thrilled that it is only a RHOC recap for tonight! I’ve been quasi productive today and ready to knock this out and then be lazy for the rest of the night. As a former teacher, I sometimes feel like I need the week off for Thanksgiving and two weeks for Christmas and you know, two weeks in the summer, lol. But, I will say I much prefer being my own boss.
We start this episode Braunwyn trying to convince Kelly to go on the Florida trip. Please. Kelly would not miss this trip in for the world. I also don’t understand why Braunwyn and her husband are going down early “to open up their house” when I am pretty sure they all stayed in a hotel. ICYMI I covered this trip with the help of local spies here at the time they took this trip in May. Kelly calls all the other girls witches and then production plays a hilarious compilation of the others cackling.
In a dueling scene, Gina and Tamra go shopping for clothes for the trip. Why do you need a new swim suit and a complete new wardrobe for every trip? That’s almost as dumb as bringing three or four giant suitcases for a weekend at the beach. Kelly tweeted support to Jim Bellino about Tamra. I think that defamation case is still open. A Judge threw out the case against Shannon and Jim had to pay for her lawyers.

Gina tells Tamra that she and Matt recently got a hotel room in Laguna and “a lot of things went on in that hotel room.” Also he has been sending her flowers and trying to woo her. Oh, Gina, gurl… don’t do that! Gina is sure that Matt loves her and would never cheat on her again.
Easy Come, Not So Easy Go…
Shannon is trying to finally end her marriage to David once and for all after two long years of fighting. Shannon looks AMAZING going into to court. That has to be some sweet revenge.

Emily, Gina and Tamra head over to Vicki’s for some sort of surprise. Shannon will be there later after she gets out of court. The big surprise was Vicki’s giant engagement ring. No sooner does that news come out than in walks Shannon to talk about her divorced settlement. Click here if you missed how she made out with that. Shannon says that David was actually nice in court. She said that David emailed her the day of the settlement to tell her that she is proud of her. When talking about the trip, Tamra and Shannon say their attorneys told them not too talk to Kelly because she is trying to stir the pot with Jim Bellino about their lawsuit. This should make for an interesting trip.
Briana & Ryan Bring The Boys To Visit Vicki
Briana is loving life in North Carolina. She has been on the Keto diet for her Lupus and has lost 60 pounds. She looks incredible and feels great. Briana says that she has never been happier in North Carolina and will never move back to Orange County. Briana approves of Vicki’s marriage to Steve. Tamra visits with Briana and we get flashbacks to Brooks. UGH. They take a family photo and Steve asks if he should stand on the end in case Vicki wants to cut him out later. Good plan! Vicki and Brooks are still battling over money Vicki claims she loaned Brooks.
Miami Ooh La La
I could have sworn Braunwyn said she and her husband were going to Miami to “open up their house.” Yet, here they are in a comped small hotel room promoted by Bravo. I can’t get into Braunwyn or her husband. And I normally love gay guys.

I do however, ADORE Emily who packed one suitcase for the Miami trip. Once they land, Braunwyn and her husband pick them up in two Maseratis. They are staying at The Confidante. I am not familiar with Miami so I don’t know much about the place. But again? Did I mishear Braunwyn talking about her house there? The hotel is very cute and very Miami. Braunwyn sent flowers and champagne to Vicki’s room to congratulate her on her wedding. That seems to have done the trick as Vicki goes to her room to thank her.
EW. They are going to E11EVEN. I went there years ago like a couple decades ago and I hated it then. It was way over rated, I was there on a business trip and went by myself and no one would talk to me. I’m sure I was not dressed appropriately. I did somehow wind up in the VIP section for a bit though. Even that was not fun. I felt too old for the place then. I don’t remember there being strippers back then. Everyone got naked wasted and several of them tried to strip. So obnoxious.
Bar Brawls
Back at the hotel they head straight to the bar. It was way too loud to argue at E11EVEN. Kelly told Shannon her hair looks like shit. She tells Gina her super blond hair looks like shit too. Kelly is bad at making friends.

Braunwyn’s husband stayed in their room to fold Braunwyn’s clothes and pack them. The ladies go out to the pool for drinks. Shannon comes in to chat with Braunwyn about Kelly. Shannon looks super cute. Everyone ends up at the pool talking about Kelly. Kelly shows up and sits all by herself. Kelly says that Shannon has no reason not to talk to her since her case was dismissed. Shannon is still mad at her. Kelly says that Tamra is the one who keeps telling lies about her. Tamra lies about the things she said about Kelly. Tamra screeches at Kelly that she didn’t do anything to Kelly and blames Vicki. Eventually, Tamra tells Kelly to go suck some more dick for money. And…… SCENE.
Next week, the three amigas get batshit drunk in Key West. It’s another episode of Grannies Gone Wild. One of the grannies gets carted off in an ambulance. As usual. It’s probably Vicki. Vicki has also been contacting the woman that Kelly got in a fist fight with at her kid’s school. Good Grief. These women are vicious.
Oh! I meant to add This Link to let you know there were updates to the Josh Waring situation this week and I made another update in comments today if you are interested.

I laughed watching the convertible scene with everyone looking a mess and concerned about their hair extensions… noticed braunwyn hair didn’t move at all tho;) Kelly is right the extension thing is ridiculous, but a big part of me likes watching how ridiculous they dress.
All I could think was in all of their fifteen suitcases apiece, no one had a barrette, a scrunchies, a hat, a scarf, anything for long hair? Could they not have just held it in a pony tail with their hands? Have they never been in a convertible before? They all looked like they had stuck their fingers in a light socket when the checked in.
There is something ‘off’ about Kelly’s fave. At some angles she’s beautiful, but mostly there is something about all of her features falling in to the middle of her face that is just wrong. I don’t know what’s up. As an artist I feel the trouble is that her nose is too small and it’s throwing everything else off, but the human part of me just thinks that her nasty personality is showing though…
*face, sorry.
I’ve always thought her nose was too small for her face!
Kelly was a real bitch in tonight’s episode of middle aged women gone menopausal
She was a hypocritical bitch on tonight’s episode. She wants to talk about thew women not dressing or looking their age but she’s the first one to never act appropriately or her age. She must think its cute to act the teenage boy…bitch it isn’t. Such a hypocritical. She tries to be all hard with her shit talking but she definitely cannot take it.
Who is Kelly’s stylist? She has a great but I don’t understand any of the weird dresses she’s been wearing this season. Especially that curtain she has wrapped around her for lunch with Brawnwin ?.
I can’t stand everyone except for Emily so I was amused by Kelly ridiculing Shannon & Gina’s hair. It was so cruel and unwarranted but I enjoyed it. I wish she went in on Tamra and Vicki while she was at it.
If she could antagonize them the way Rhylee tortures her crew members, I’d watch every week. Team Kelly all day!
The shade Kelly was throwing tonight was incredible. I am here for it!
Braunwyn has made this show almost unbearable for me. Also, did anyone hear Tamra say she’s known Brianna for 15 years, and the flashback is in 2010? Yeah….not quite 15 years.
Proving she only legitimately made it through 3rd grade.
Tamra started on OC way before 2010, but not 15 years either.
“On the Instagram” has got to be one of my favorite RHOC quotes of all time. I forgot that Shannon said that last week and I love that they included it in the recap.
YES!!!!! I thought I was the only one that caught that! my husband and I always refer to google as “the google” hahahaha
Sorry y’all testing to see if I can change my avatar
Now trying to make it stay lol
Love this avatar!
Thanks! You inspired me with brano and moose lol
It seems you can. In other news, I finished recapping this about 10:20. I watched about an hour and a have of thing On Demand and on DVR. How the hell is it already 1:25 I am. I am wide awake and it feel like about 10:30 to me!
I somehow passed out with my device on my chest open to this page. It’s not the first time it’s happened either! Ha!
Me too! Lol
I am dogsitting in the Bay Area. They have crappy dish and it is windy AF, so I have to keep restarting. Back where Vicki arrived and found her flowers from Braunwyn. Didn’t even call her Boring Wind.
Gina’s Lon Giland voice is worse now that it’s mixed with Valley Girl speak.
Kelly is SO RIGHT about extensions after 50. MOST women over 40 do not look their best with long hair — real or fake.
That’s just flat out wrong. Women look beautiful at whatever age with however they want to wear their hair. Kelly is raging hypocrite who should probably stop shading her coworkers for their age considering she will be knocking on the door of 50 sooner rather than later.
Women can rock their hair whatever length they chose, that said, as we age and develop wrinkles long hair tends to draw down the facial lines. This is not an issue for every woman but it is for many myself included.
I didn’t think Shannon could make it to the Keys because of the affair. I guess she changed her mind after she made some money in the divorce.
Hopefully we get another scene of Tamra running away crying next week. She’s insufferable and Kelly isn’t afraid to cut a bitch.
Needed more Sean Burke in his too tight man blouse and flip-flops.
OMG Too funny! ^^THIS^^
Brawnwin’s husband so much reminds me of Jessica Simpson’s dad.
I’m just here for the comments, I have nothing to add..
TT- Great recap! I don’t recall if it was last weeks episode or this weeks episode that my comment refers to. Kelly is always saying that the rumors or lies that Tamra and Vicki are repeating/spreading about Kelly are harmful and socially embarrassing to her daughter Jolie. I totally get it. However, Kelly needs to realize her actions and what she says are just as damaging. For example, Kelly was at her home speaking to a non cast member friend while Jolie was in her bedroom. Kelly went into to detail on how she taught Jolie to use a tampon. Jolie can be heard yelling in the background for Kelly to shut up or be quiet. Kelly just laughed. I see no reason that personal info about Jolie was discussed on the show. The editors should have cut that scene out. When I first got my period at 16 I wouldn’t even stand in the same aisle as my mom when she bought tampons for me or her. I would have died of embarrassment if my mom told anyone the details about my
“Tampon Insertion Class 101”. We laugh about it now but I seriously doubt Jolie finds any of it funny.
It’s even grosser that Kelly *DEMONSTRATED** putting one in on herself for Jolie!!!
then she said she helped Jolie insert one. A mother shouldn’t be showing her child her nether regions and a teenage girl normally does not want her mother that up-close-and-personal with her own nether regions either. Kelly is inappropriate.
My take away: I couldn’t stop looking at Gina’s extension weaves showing through in the shopping scene. So bad. I couldn’t get over Shannon looking a lot at her phone while driving. Gina’s comment about Vicki having to sell a lot of insurance to buy that ring had me guffawing out loud! Worth the rest of the show.
It was not just the shopping scene. Gina’s hair was a distracting mess in the pool scene too.
There is something so odd and off about Braunwyn and Sean. I can’t put my finger on it. But they are really inauthentic and unlikeable.
I think Kelly is great for this show when she’s viciously going after people… however, she seems off this season, and withdrawn. If she really is serious about being mortified about the things Vicki said and their impact on her daughter, Kelly has to realize that the way she acts is far worse than anything anyone can say about her.
As a ride or die Vicki stan, I’m hoping the reports of her returning full time are true. Yes, she is totally crazy but I can’t help it, I love her always forever.
I kind agree about Braunwyn and Sean. I mean they are likable enough, but there’s a kind of desperation about them that I typically associate with grifters (like Dorit and PK). Except for I genuinely don’t actually think they are living outside of their means. It’s difficult to pinpoint. They do seem like great parents and overall they are fine on the show. But there is just…something.
Could Braunwyn have said something like “Show them our home” instead of “Open our house”? She considers Florida her home and is still getting acclimated to Orange County.
I do think Gina’s hair looks terrible. It’s wild how much it changed her appearance. She is attractive and it really made her look, well not. I think Kelly’s her real friend for speaking the truth on that one.
Real friends tell you something in private. Kelly shouts it across the room and on national TV. Not a real fiend.
friend
Fiend works just as well when it comes describing Kelly! ?
Too many white jeans.
How did Brauwyn and her husband go out and party all the time when they lived in Miami when they have 7 kids? Didn’t she say she was a full time dance mom to oldest? How did they have time to go clubbing and her husband still have a job to make enough money to support them? I can’t understand how these people live. Are they professional swingers?
Sean made money and now they continue to live off it. That’s my understanding.
“And I normally love gay guys.” Snorted so loud the dogs are circling.
Heh, I think you were the only one who caught that. 🙂
Totally said out loud “oh no you didn’t!”when I saw that. ?I am now convinced of the same after this episode.
