'RHOC' Season Nine Reunion: Details From The Drama-Filled Taping

Details about last week's filming of The Real Housewives of Orange County season nine reunion have surfaced.

According to a new report, Friday's taping of the reunion show was quite eventful with tears, drama and apologies, which one particular source said were "aimed at Tamra Judge.”

"Heather Dubrow actually apologized to Shannon Beador for the way she was treated this season and for things that were said. In return, both ladies took their anger out on Tamra, accusing her of stirring up drama and being a disloyal friend who spreads gossip,” a source revealed to Radar Online on July 22. "Vicki Gunvalson was also very mad at Tamra for betraying her trust, and continuing her vendetta against then-boyfriend Brooks Ayers, but Shannon really went off on Tamra for trying to make her look like a bad wife and mom.”

After being hired by Bravo to star in The Real Housewives of Orange County season three, Barney established several close relationships with her cast members, namely Vicki Gunvalson. However, as the years have progressed, her relationships have changed. During season seven, Barney and Gunvalson had a falling out and Barney got closer to Gretchen Rossi. Then, during season eight, things flip-flopped and Barney rekindled her relationship with Gunvalson, only to see Gunvalson team up with new housewife, Shannon Beador, during season nine.

Because of their constantly evolving relationships, the cast of The Real Housewives of Orange County was able to bring plenty of drama to the set of the season nine reunion -- and Bravo couldn't be happier at the results.

Producers of the show are “very happy with how the reunion taping went,” the insider added. “There was tons of fighting, and tears, which always equates to excellent ratings.”
