Elizabeth Vargas is clapping back at her Real Housewives of Orange County castmates for calling out some shifting narratives she’s been telling on this season of the show.
The OC rookie has fit in with the group in many ways, but she has also been taken to task by the women who aren’t necessarily believing Elizbeth’s stories about her estranged husband, Bernt Bodal, and the ins and outs of her divorce. Although Elizabeth has brought up her divorce several times, she has left the women confused about the details of the situation, but she also noted that she can’t really discuss the details due to legal reasons.
The RHOC ladies have also criticized the new housewife for saying she allegedly hasn’t slept with her boyfriend Jimmy even though the two have been seeing each other for some time (err — the details of that relationship are sort of unclear as well).
Now, Elizabeth has taken to her Instagram to call out the women for their criticism, and she promoted her new alcohol line, Vargas Vodka, in the process.
“Wow!! What a ride 2020 has been! I’m ramping up to launch Vargas Vodka, excited & PROUD!!!” Elizbeth exclaimed in a lengthy Instagram post. “These Crazy Ladies on #rhoc???? thought & always think I’m full of shit!! ????????Well…. that’s because they have never met someone like me!!..A true lover & believer of life…One that never takes defeat or no for an answer???????? I should send a few the TRUE definition of #womensupportingwomen not #womentryingtodiscreditwomenbecauseoftheirowninsecurities[.]”
The RHOC newbie went on to say, “[Y[ou know who you are????????squirt squirt ???? Now let’s do this!! RHOC????BABEEEEEE????????????.” She also shouted out her co-stars by saying her vodka “mixes well” with Kelly Dodd‘s Positive Beverage and Shannon Beador‘s Real For Real Cuisine’s “healthy meals.”
Elizabeth may also be referring to the latest episode of the RHOC where Braunwyn Windham-Burke highlighted what she perceived to be Elizabeth’s lies, telling Emily Simpson that Elizabeth claimed to be lonely but was then seen in Instagram photos hanging out with her friends.
Braunwyn also dug up public records of a house Elizabeth owned that went into default, and she talked with Shannon about potential financial issues amid Elizabeth’s claims of massive wealth. Braunwyn and Shannon then determined that the reality TV newcomer was “full of s–t” and not telling the full truth about her life.
See more of Elizabeth’s story(ies) unfold on The Real Housewives of Orange County, airing every Wednesday at 9/8c on Bravo.
