Vicki Gunvalson Says She Doesn’t Like ‘Real Housewives’ Alum

“Real Housewives of Orange County” star Vicki Gunvalson opened up about her ongoing issues with “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” alum Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave, as reported by Page Six. According to the publication, problems intensified between the Bravo personalities after Arroyave accused Gunvalson of attempting to replace her on her podcast, “Two Ts In A Pod,” co-hosted by her RHOC castmate Tamra Judge. Gunvalson has stated that the claim was untrue. The 61-year-old was also unhappy with Arroyave when she uploaded an X post, writing, “[C]ould you let us all know where you were on January 6th,” in reference to the 2021 United States Capitol attack, following an intense back-and-forth on the social media platform.

In the September 13 episode of “Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen,” with her RHOC castmates Shannon Beador and Judge, Gunvalson gave her opinion about Arroyave, who exited RHOBH in 2020. While playing “Truth or Your Amigas Take a Shot,” Beador and Gunvalson were prompted to share if they were annoyed by Arroyave.

“On a scale of 1 to 10: How annoying do you find Tamra’s pal Teddi Mellencamp?” inquired the show’s host Andy Cohen.

Beador responded she “really like[s] Teddi” because “she’s been nice to [her].” Meanwhile, Gunvalson replied, “I do not like her, so give me a shot.”

“She’s a 10,” asserted the COTO Insurance founder.

Later in the “Watch What Happens Live” episode, Gunvalson deemed Arroyave as “the rudest Housewife from another city.”
