Vicki Gunvalson News: 'RHOC' Star Will Take Aim At David Beador's Arrest [VIDEO]
Vicki Gunvalson and Shannon Beador will likely come to blows during this week's taping of The Real Housewives of Orange County season 12 reunion special.
According to a new report, Gunvalson is ready to bring up Beador's husband David's dirty laundry, including his 2003 arrest, which resulted in the reality dad being forced to attend a batterer’s treatment program.
As fans of The Real Housewives of Orange County will likely recall, Gunvalson claimed to have learned that David had been abusive towards Shannon Beador from her co-star directly but after going public with the revelation during season 11, Gunvalson was labeled a liar by both Beador and her husband. Now, according to a Radar Online source, Gunvalson feels vindicated.
“She is definitely going to bring this up at the reunion taping because she is sick and tired of Shannon’s bulls**t,” the insider said.
When the allegations were first revealed on The Real Housewives of Orange County, Gunvalson told co-star Kelly Dodd, “I have text messages and pictures.” However, Beador said Gunvalson was nothing more than a "liar."
Following David's 2003 arrest, Beador's husband was released on bail and dealt with a court order that stated he “must not annoy, harass, strike, threaten, sexually assault, batter, stalk destroy personal property of, or otherwise disturb the peace.”
During an earlier episode of season 12, Beador said that the stress from Gunvalson's allegations towards her husband caused her to stress eat and gain a total of 40 pounds before season 12.
“That stress caused me to eat more, caused me to drink more, and that’s a huge part of why I gained my weight,” she said, according to a report by People magazine. “My weight gain has affected me and how I feel about myself. I’m embarrassed about my body.”
A short time later, Gunvalson apologized to her co-star.
“I’m sorry. You know, I’m sorry that you feel that way and I don’t want to cause her any stress … If I’m responsible for it, I’m really, really sorry,” Gunvalson told Entertainment Tonight.
“I don’t want anything bad for Shannon and David. I actually want them to have a happy, healthy marriage. I told her that from the very beginning when she confided in me on their situation. I said, ‘Make your marriage work.’ So I’m sorry. If I’m to blame for it, I’m sorry,” she added.
