Kelly Dodd and Braunwyn Windham-Burke seemingly suffered a falling out as the 15th season of The Real Housewives of Orange County wrapped production earlier this month.
After starting production as friends earlier this year and resuming filming earlier this summer amid the coronavirus pandemic, Kelly and Braunwyn have apparently put an end to their relationship as news regarding the upcoming episodes, and why there will be less than normal, has hit the web.
Over the weekend, the Bravo Guru on Instagram shared the news of the ladies’ unfollows with their audience.
“Looks like there’s friendship trouble in the OC. Kelly Dodd and Braunwyn Windham-Burke might not be friends anymore. The two have both unfollowed each other on social media,” they stated.
Also over the weekend, the Real Housewives Franchise on Instagram shared that when it comes to the upcoming episodes of RHOC season 15, there will be just 12 due to the restrictions production was under due to the spread of COVID-19 in California.
“The Real Housewives of Orange County has wrapped filming for season 15!” they announced. “The season will reportedly only have 12 episodes, due to Bravo restricting the amount of hours being filmed due to the pandemic.”
“Expect season 15 to premiere sometime this Fall on Bravo,” the fan page added.
In addition to the returning members of the cast, including Kelly, Braunwyn, Shannon Beador, Gina Kirschenheiter, and Emily Simpson, Elizabeth Vargas is also expected to appear on the show in a full-time position.
At the end of last year, Andy Cohen teased a potential new addition to the RHOC cast while appearing on SiriusXM’s Jeff Lewis Live.
“I will tell you this. The casting for next season is some of the best casting we’ve had,” Andy said at the time. “I have not been this excited about casting in a long time.”
“I’m telling you no matter how it shakes out, it’s going to be great because we have great casting,” he added.
An exact premiere date for The Real Housewives of Orange County season 15 has not yet been set.
