Vicki Gunvalson Claims She Didn’t Know Boyfriend Was A Deadbeat Dad, Evidence Says Otherwise

Vicki Gunvalson Boyfriend Brooks

A day after news broke that Vicki Gunvalson’s boyfriend Brooks Ayers was a deadbeat dad who owed a ton in child support, Vicki is now claiming she was not aware of Brooks’ child support issues.

Brooks, pictured above in the mugshot obtained by Reality Tea, was arrested on August 29 (under the name David Brooks Ayers), and taken to the Lee County Jail in Mississippi for failure to pay over $40,000 in child support to two different women. That arrest was reportedly Brooks’ second arrest in 2010 for the same issue. The arrest record also lists Brooks’ age as 43.

The Rumor Fix blog was able to get a statement from Real Housewives of Orange County star Vicki, 48, about the latest revelation regarding her boyfriend. “I had no idea,” claims Vicki.

It gets even better as Vicki, who was just gushing about Brooks on the recent OC reunion show, then goes on to downplay her relationship with him. “I’ve only just started dating this guy, we’ve had like three dates. I don’t know about any of it,” added Vicki.

There is however just one major problem with Vicki’s statements. See, court documents prove she was absolutely aware of Brooks’ child support issues. In fact, RadarOnline obtained a hand-written letter Vicki wrote to a Mississippi judge last year in August following Brooks’ most recent arrest.

In the letter, signed by Vicki herself, she makes a direct reference to Brooks’ child support case. An excerpt from the letter is below -

“I am a personal friend of (David) Brooks Ayers and am acting on his behalf at this time. He was arrested last night on a child support arrearage order, that was unknown to him and currently is in the Lee County Jail.”

So how can Vicki now say she had no idea? The letter by Vicki was written on August 30, 2010 (two months before she filed for divorce), and also the same time Bravo was filming the 6th season of the OC Housewives, you know, the same season Vicki bashed Slade Smiley once or twice for not paying child support.

That irony is not lost on Gretchen Rossi who has been heavily criticized by Vicki and her BFF Tamra Barney for dating Slade (who also has child support issues). Gretchen definitely had some choice words for both Vicki and Tamra yesterday. Below are some of the tweets by Gretchen -

“Geez Karma is my friend lately! That is why you never judge someone cause one day u could end up in the same spot!”

“Ironic that @Tamrabarney won’t say anything about this, but beats up Slade.”

Still no word yet from Tamra regarding this latest tidbit of information.

TELL US – THOUGHTS ON THE LATEST NEWS? DO YOU BELIEVE VICKI’S TALE?

    @397 Arlie: It will be interesting to see if your potential candidate for suicide signs up for another season in the spotlight.

    @400 Babe: “The word ‘babe’ sounds so corny.” Not if you’re addressing a pig.

  3. Brooks has a DUI on top of everything else? Oh this just keeps getting better and better. Vicki sure knows how to pick em.

  4. Vicki’s always telling others to “Own It” when they screw up. She’s definitely not following her own advice on this mess.

    She must have been thrilled to discover her fax to that Judge was filed by the court and therefore became public record.

  5. Brooks is 43?! No way! Vicki must have bragged to Tammy Sue that she snagged such a stud muffin – little did she know that he turned out to be a dirt bag.

    Did this guy think no one would ever find out about him? Was he THAT STUPID on top of everything else? Maybe Brooks can get Eddie’s law firm to write a “cyst and deceased” letter to Radaronline?

  7. LMAO at #406. This is just too sad (in a funny way). Anybody follow Ms Piggy on Twitter?

    Vicki, there’s always Arnold Schwarzenneger! He’ll park his old Hummer in your nasty garage.

  10. so wat are icky and barnyard barney saying on thier blogs bout this

  11. oh my -hee hee that housewife analysis site had this about Vicki G.
    ……………………
    Vicki will constantly tell you she is working, she has to work or how many responsibilities she has on her plate. She looks down upon the other housewives because she feels they do not work at all, mostly because none of them work in the exact manner she does. Vicki makes it clear that if you do not see work as she does that you will never be successful. At times she hints that indeed you have no worth if you do not think and do exactly as she does.

    Work is everything to her, coming before her relationships with friends, her husband Donn and even her children. When her daughter Brianna needed a biopsy for a possible cancer her very first reaction to it was that she had a meeting scheduled that day. I cannot imagine that even occurring to me in that moment personally. In Vicki’s defense she ultimately worked it out and went with Brianna. I will say though if your first inclination is to think of work rather than the well being of your child, clearly you have an issue.

    Vicki raises her children with these ideals as well, she rigidly believes they should always do everything exactly right, according to the rules. When Brianna missed one bill Vicki freaked out, making the kids attend a financial seminar. It was complete with lectures about responsibility and doomsday scenarios for any mistakes along the way. She had a point, as she always does, but the manner in which she went about it was completely overboard.

    Vicki recently broke up a friendship with Jeana. Most of her issues with her were money based. It seemed to start when Jeana was supporting her ex husband, which Vicki clearly did not approve of. She seems to feel that there is a fundamental defect in people who cannot behave as she does financially or in regards to work. It is unreasonably rigid.

    Vicki also has had a lot of difficulties with other castmates. Whenever someone does something that is not right in Vicki’s mind, she judges. She especially does not like any signs of dependence on a partner. Lynne, Alexis, Tamra and Gretchen have all been called out by Vicki for being too dependent on the men in their lives. Vicki does not seem to be at all dependant on Donn, in fact she goes overboard and barely ever includes the poor man in her life at all. I think any sign of neediness in herself at all makes Vicki completely uncomfortable.

    Overall I feel Vicki Gunvalson meets enough of the criteria of Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder for my assertion of it as a diagnosis.

    Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder is a pervasive pattern of preoccupation with orderliness, perfectionism, and mental and interpersonal control, at the expense of flexibility, openness, and efficiency.

    This was really surprising to me! I’m not a Vicky fan, but I did think she had some class. It’s obvious she was cheating on Donn since this is the man she met at the pool in Cabo who “looked just like Donn”. I do believe Tamra was an influence, but she’s a grown woman. Even though I find Slade disgusting, who is Vicky to judge him, when her new man owes to two different women? Very foolish move to throw away her marriage, b/c EVERY marriage is work. Her stupid “love tank” will be empty, and hopefully Donn will have moved on to better.

  13. Unless she is completely desperate Vicki better drop this zero he is bad news on every level and not a good look for her business. I can totally see Vicki ‘keeping’ a man and taking care of him but can she at least find one who isn’t an ex convict?

    No pity for Vickie … this is what happens when you set yourself up as judge and jury on EVERYONE – you get judged in return.

    Radaronline has a new article (by Donn) saying Brooks and Vicki have been an item for years:

    http://www.radaronline.com/exclusives/2011/06/real-housewives-vicki-gunvalson-new-boyfriend-brooks-ayers-involved-years-0

  22. Reality Tea can you pls post updated stories about this slimeball; ppl aren’t paying attention because they don’t know about the latest developments.

    Anyway, is this guy broke or what?

  23. @421 nancy0109…Thanks for link.

  24. Oh Vicki you are lying again! Turks & Caicos is a VERY popular and touristy island, you most certainly can get cell/text service. What a freaking liar you are!

    It doesn’t matter if you break up with Brooks at this point, there is physical proof that you tried to get a deadbeat dad out of his very deserved punishment.

    Vicki you are a parasite!

  25. I keep checking for any comments on any site from Trashcan, she sure is keeping her big mouth and busy tweeting fingers quiet on this. HMMMMMMMM.

  26. I just watched a rerun of the reunion (which was only taped a couple of weeks ago) and Vicki was GUSHING about Brooks, even went as far to say her love tank was full. Even tranny tamra chimed in about “what a great guy he is”.

    Yet both of them are so silent now. Talk about lying hypocrites.

    Here’s a quote from today’s Radar-on-line article.

    “Meanwhile, Vicki insists that she and Brooks were never serious in the first place and that they are “taking a break” right now.”

    GOOD, a very very very long break I hope, like forever.

  28. The horror! I found a dil-do in Eddie’s sock drawer and it ain’t mine. Until I deal with that matter, I have nothing to say on Vicki’s and Brook’s trouble.

  29. Okay, based on what Radar has, it looks like Vicki has known this guy in the business for years–at least since 2007.

    Pretty sure it is not the same guy that was in the Cabo pool because she acted like she didn’t know that man.

    I hope she wasn’t cheating and I actually don’t think she was. She seems to really revere marriage. I would hate to see that all be a sham.

    That being said do I think she socialized and probably flirted with men at conferences? Yes. But I just don’t think she was banging them.

    I agree Anna. I’ve been to several of Vicki’s book signings and she is a shameless flirt, often in the presence of Donn who didn’t seem to mind . . .

  31. Must check this out: I ran across this tipbit this morning regarding the Reunion…

    http://absurdtosublime.net/2011/06/18/slade-smiley-and-gretchen-rossi-kill-the-messenger/

  32. I too don’t think she’d cheat but she seems like a very weak and broken woman despite her constant reminders about being so successful. I think she’d be flattered if ANY man showed her attention and if said man happened to catch her on a night where she threw back too many, well……..

  33. If Vicki “revered” marriage she would not have treated Don like shit repeatedly and would have actually worked at her marriage.

    All she did was go on business trips and whore around while drunk. I bet she cheated multiple times on poor Don.

  34. Just proves that all along vicky and tamra were jealous of Gretchen because she is younger, beautiful and smart. Slade is a nice looking man also, hopefully he will get a good paying job and get his payments caught up.

  35. Vicki has been playing a long and sick game and she is just finally busted thats all. It makes more sense now how she just instatly took to Tamra from the get go when she always slams all the other new girls. Its because birds of a feather flock together. Vicky and Tamra are just alike just Vicky has been better at hiding it. They are whores no matter how you slice it. I feel for Donn because he spent years raising her children and taking a back seat to his very MANLY wife. This is the payment he gets? I hope her working has made her bunches of money and I hope Donn gets all he can of it .. He’s earned it!

  36. @ 428 Tamra Barney….thanks for the giggle!!!!
