Brooks Ayers Cancer: Amid Rumors, Vicki Gunvalson's Ex Explains Why He Appeared On 'RHOC' [VIDEO]
Brooks Ayers took a stand against The Real Housewives of Orange County after season 10 wrapped, so why did he agree to film in the first place?
After proclaiming reality television destroys lives with manufactured drama, Ayers, the former boyfriend of Vicki Gunvalson, was faced with questions online about his decision to film the show, which he quickly explained.
@cheekymonky73 I was "coerced" to film because I was dating Vicki. They would've reduced her role if I didn't film. Hindsight is 20/20.

Throughout the 10th season of The Real Housewives of Orange County, Gunvalson and her then-boyfriend, Ayers, were targeted with allegations, claiming his cancer diagnosis was fake. Although Ayers insists he is truly suffering from stage 3 Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, cast member Meghan King Edmonds isn't convinced, and has been leading the charge when it comes to proving his alleged lies.
On Thursday, following news of Ayers' plans to sue Edmonds, Ayers shared the following re-tweet with fans on Twitter.
