Vicki Gunvalson disses ‘very aggressive’ stars of ‘Real Housewives of Rhode Island’

Vicki Gunvalson thinks the women of “The Real Housewives of Rhode Island” are “very aggressive.”

While chatting exclusively with Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea,” the “Real Housewives of Orange County” icon opened up about her first time meeting the Rhode Island “Housewives.”

“I didn’t even know who they were,” Gunvalson admitted. “I was like, ‘Hi, bye. You’re all fighting. I’m staying away from that.’”

She added, “They’re very aggressive.”

Gunvalson, 64, met the newbie reality stars while filming “The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Roaring 20th” at “Real Housewives of New York City” alum Dorinda Medley’s Bluestone Manor in February. The show is celebrating 20 years of “Real Housewives” with a cross-country trip featuring 82 different “Housewives.”

Despite being at Medley’s New England residence, the cast members of Bravo’s latest “Housewives” franchise were hardly making it nice, according to Gunvalson.

“It’s like, ‘The cameras aren’t here. What’re you guys doing? Shut up. This is my show. We are here for Season 20, ‘Ultimate Girls Trip,’” she recalled. “It was just awkward.”

Based on the “RHUGT” trailer alone, “Real Housewives of Rhode Island” stars Kelsey Swanson and Rosie DiMare appear to get into a heated tiff.

Swanson, 32, and DiMare, 35, did not get along in their first season of “The Real Housewives of Rhode Island.”

Amid a disagreement about the square footage of DiMare’s house, the former news anchor infamously called Swanson a “slam pig,” coining one of the most memorable Bravo insults since James Kennedy called Tom Sandoval a “worm with a mustache” in “Vanderpump Rules.”

Drama aside, “The Real Housewives of Rhode Island” opened to impressive ratings when it first premiered in April. The show, which has already been renewed for Season 2, currently holds the record for Bravo’s biggest multiplatform series premiere since 2024, per Deadline.

However, to keep that momentum going, Gunvalson — who has, admittedly, only watched “a little bit” of “RHORI” as it “scares” her — urged the women to “settle down.”

“Be authentic,” she said. “Would you do this in real life? Because if you wouldn’t do it in real life, what are you doing it on camera for?”

That’s why they call her the “OG of OC”!

“The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Roaring 20th” premieres Aug. 9 at 9 p.m. ET. New episodes will be available to stream the next day on Peacock.
