Vicki Gunvalson and Tamra Judge shocked viewers of the Real Housewives of Orange County when they hugged it out and reconciled during the recent reunion. And as we have reported, the reconciliation was genuine and the ladies are still talking and getting along.
However, a new report today is stating that the reconciliation is now causing nightmares for RHOC producers!
The reason? Apparently they are worried that the ladies getting along would lead to less drama aka a boring upcoming season.
“Vicki and Tamra have been talking a lot since the season finale and they are actually becoming close friends again,” a source close to production tells Radar Online. “And although everyone is glad that things are finally good between the two of them, producers are desperate to find someone to bring the drama like the two of them did for next season.”
Indeed there was a report that the show’s producers were in negotiations with former O.C. castmember Gretchen Rossi to return to the show, with Gretchen requesting a lot of money to come back. However with Gretchen’s return not yet a sure thing, the producers are reportedly desperate for a new solution.
“Everyone who works for RHOC knows that they need drama and fights in order for that show to survive and the issue that they are having is that they really cannot fire either Vicki or Tamra because they are a staple to the show,” the insider reveals, adding, “They are scouring to find a solution!”
Gretchen would be ideal for this role as she and Tamra recently reignited their long standing feud last year after Gretchen commented on Tamra’s strained relationship with her daughter Sidney.
