Summary

Gretchen Rossi steps Behind The Rope. It is hard to imagine its been seven seasons since Gretchen was last a full time cast member on The Real Housewives of Orange County. Gretchen reflects back on her several season run on the granddaddy of The Real Housewives Franchise. We discuss the good (meeting fiancé Slade Smiley, performing with the Pussycat Dolls), the bad (there seems to be no love loss between her and former co-star Tamra Judge, the 80s Bunco Party, a reference to a certain muppet who goes by the name Miss Piggy), and the other (how RHOC has forever changed her life). Gretchen chats about many of her former colleagues - Vicki Gunvalson, Heather Dubrow, Alexis “Jesus Juggs” Bellino, and Jeana Keough. Gretchen also discusses what she thinks about the exit of Vicki and Tamra and whether that friendship is real or for TV and just what went wrong with Last Season’s Fifteen and the changes she would have made as we prepare for the return of RHOC this December! Gretchen also talks about her recent comments about Braunwyn’s sexuality and appearance on WWHL! In other news, Gretchen has partnered with Lifevac (which protects your children from choking emergencies), is a Mom (shout out to Skylar Gray Smiley) and Social Media Lifestyle Influencer (almost 1 million IG followers). With all that going on, we can’t help but ask the obvious, would you ever go back?? @gretchenrossi @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Bonus Episodes Available at - https://www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope Brought to you by OMAZE - https://www.omaze.com/velvetrope (Receive 20 Extra Entries When You Enter Code “Velvetrope”) Brought to you by MANSCAPED - https://www.manscaped.com (20% Off + Free Shipping with Promo Code VELVET) Merch Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.
