Slade Smiley is just as much of a fixture on the Real Housewives of Orange Country franchise as Vicki Gunvalson. He may have disappeared for a few seasons, but he’s one of the constant, mainly because he keeps dating women on the show. It’s a pretty big joke that’s faded since he’s now been with Gretchen Rossi with four years, and they’re engaged, but it’s worth a trip down memory lane since RHOC is celebrating it’s 100 episode tonight.

Slade, who has been on Real Housewives of Orange County since Season One when he was living with Jo de la Rosa, is known to stir up some strong emotions in the ladies.

Too bad, girls, because you just lost your favorite insult: Slade went and got himself a real job! For five hours a week anyways.
Tamra Barney and Gretchen Rossi made up at the beginning of the seventh season of The Real Housewives of Orange County, and by the end of the year they were nearly besties. But recently Tamra gave an interview to AllAboutTRH in which she revealed she and Gretchen had some issues while filming Season 8 — oh, and that Gretchen “sucked” at singing. Needless to say, Gretchen wasn’t happy about the jab and released a statement of her own in response, revealing how hurtful Tamra’s words had been. Now, Tamra is back for round three!
Ding, ding, ding!

Real Housewives of Orange County is heading back to Bravo for an eighth season this Spring and with Tamra planning a wedding and Gretchen for babies, it’s sure to be an action packed season.

Gretchen Rossi has been talking about wanting babies for a while now, and although they have been the target of several pregnancy and engagement rumors, neither of those two things have happened yet.

Last night, the Real Housewives put their drama aside for a good cause — and they looked amazing doing it.

Gretchen Rossi and Slade Smiley have been together for several years now, but for numerous reasons (as addressed onscreen on The Real Housewives of Orange County), the couple continues to balk at taking the next big step and committing to walking down the aisle together. Now Gretchen is revealing that the couple may be turning the age-old rhyme “First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes baby in a baby carriage” on its ear as she announces the two are trying to have a baby!
Tamra Barney is getting closer and closer to walking down the aisle. After celebrating her bachelorette party in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico last month, Tamra has now taken the next step in her journey to the altar. On November 30, she and the ladies of The Real Housewives of Orange County, including Lauri Waring-Peterson and Alexis Bellino, attended a wedding dress fitting, all of which taped for the upcoming season of the show.

Season 6 of The Real Housewives of Orange County had more cat fights than a New York City alley way! Usually these shows tend to naturally divide into two teams during the season (Team Bethenny vs. Team Jill for example) but this season of RHOC had enough teams to create a March Madness bracket!
