‘The Real Housewives Of Orange County’ Star Vicki Gunvalson Quits Show After 14 Seasons

The Real Housewives of Orange County star Vicki Gunvalson has quit the show after 14 years. 

She made the announcement on social media, saying, “It’s been an incredible ride,” — she is an original cast member since the show started in 2006.

The 57-year-old wrote on Instagram, “I will always be the OG of the OC, but it’s time to say goodbye to The Real Housewives of Orange County. It’s been an incredible ride for 14 years and I want to thank all of you for your support, for your love and for “whooping it up” with me along the way.

I’ve been working on new projects that will be exciting, empowering and inspirational. My podcast with Westwood One will be launching soon and I will have much more to say about this on “Whoop it up with Vicki”. I hope you will join me on my new journey so please stay tuned. I love all my fans, and I want to thank Bravo and Evolution for this incredible experience which my family and I have will never forget.”

Andy Cohen posted a picture of the pair on his social media from a season 3 reunion, with the caption, “I remember the first reunion I did with Vicki Gunvalson. Occasionally our eyes would meet as I grilled the other women, and she would wink at me optimistically and effervescently as both of her deep dimples shone.

She kept winking at me Year after year, and it always made my heart smile. Vicki is an original, who remained her authentic self from her Family Van-freakout through her last reunion. It’s so hard to remain exactly who you are after being on television for so long, but Vicki is one of a kind. Thank you for everything, Vicki Gunvalson – what a ride. And it’s not over.”
