Gretchen proposes to Slade on The Real Housewives of Orange County


by Gina Scarpa

 

Fresh off her trip to Whistler, Vicki is throwing a Winter Wonderland party and inviting all of The Real Housewives of Orange County to attend.  Will these women ever learn that nothing good happens when you get them all together!?  She shares her plan with Alexis and Lydia, and the conversation soon turns to Slade.  Vicki's heard that Slade has been bashing her on his radio show so they pull up a clip online and sure enough, he's calling her Tupperware Face.  If you thought Vicki was upset, you should see Lydia, who is sick of the comments he makes about everyone's appearance.

 

Heather and Terry sit their kids down in a family meeting to break the news that they're moving.  Let me tell you, it doesn't go over well.  Don't they get it's going to be bigger and better?  Not until Terry says they can have whatever they want - a larger pool, bigger bedrooms, a fireplace in their room... woah, woah, woah.  Scratch the fireplace.  Heather has spoken.  They eventually win them over and are ready to move forward with their adventure.

 

During Slade's radio show, his co-host plays him the song that Gretchen wrote for him, then has him change into a tux and take a limo ride to an airport.  A helicopter whisks him to the top of a building, where Gretchen is waiting to propose.  She apologizes for having cold feet last year but knows she has to spend the right of her life with him and he happily accepts.  Let the party begin!  Interestingly, there wasn't a single housewife in sight and the two decided to keep their big news a secret from them (for now).

 

At Vicki's party, Tamra finally reconnects with Briana and meets Troy for the first time.  Ryan is home from training for the weekend too, which is even more reason to celebrate.  Vicki sits the women down to say she's back with Brooks, but Briana doesn't know yet.  That's not going to go well.  And speaking of things that aren't going to go well, as Gretchen and Slade arrive, the women look less than thrilled to see either one of them.  We'll have to wait until next week to see the Housewives vs. The Smileys.

 


The Real Housewives of Orange County airs Mondays at 9/8c on Bravo.
