Real Housewives of Orange County star Gina Kirschenheiter is regretting she ever introduced Katie Ginella to the show. Rather than bringing a fresh perspective to the cast, Katie came in like a wrecking ball. She seems to have done nothing but fight and cause trouble with her castmates since the day she arrived.
“I was very frustrated!” Gina continued. “She really hurt my friend. [Emily Simpson]’s my best friend and those are her kids. I felt a little bit responsible for it. I brought you in because I liked you. Why are you doing this? I can tell you, I’m not the problem,”
And it looks like things are only going to get worse, as RHOC Season 19 continues.
Why does RHOC star Gina Kirschenheiter have a problem with Katie Ginella?
In an interview with Pride, host Ricky Cornish joked, “We’re all mad at Katie!”
“I know, right?” Gina responded. But watching it all back, Gina wonders if she somehow overreacted. “I made it too much!”
“It’s so interesting to watch yourself back,” she added. “I’m like, “I really am opinionated!”
“It is very stressful,” Gina continued. “[Heather] Dubrow never [lets] a day goes by that she doesn’t remind me, ‘You brought her in the group!'”
Not only did she feel “responsible” for Katie’s pot stirring, but she was confused by the change in her behavior. So when Katie finally apologized to both her and Emily for bringing Emily’s kids into the nastiness, she admitted to being happy.
In case you don’t recall, after Katie’s daughter Kaili babysat Emily’s three children, she came home and reported to her mom that they told her Heather is “mean” to their mom. In truth, it was actually Kaili who badmouthed Heather to the kids. The first rule of being a Housewife is that kids are off limits, and Katie openly disregarded that rule.
But as Ricky reminded her, “the streets are saying” there’s going to be tension between Katie and Emily in Season 19. But Gina merely reminded him, “I’m not the problem.”
The Real Housewives of Orange County airs Thursdays at 9/8c on Bravo. It streams on Hayu in the UK and Ireland.
