And now we have an exclusive look at the seating chart for The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 19 reunion.
The Real Housewives of Orange County cast tease Season 19 reunion
Over the course of Season 19, The Daily Dish spoke with several OC cast members, who shared their predictions for the reunion and opened up about all of the things that they do to prepare for it.
Heather Dubrow admits that she doesn’t prepare for RHOC reunions like she used to
Heather has had a lot of experience with reunions. The actress appeared on RHOC Seasons 7 through 11 before re-joining the cast for Season 16. But, she wasn’t too anxious about the reunion. “It’s not til October,” she told The Daily Dish on Aug. 14. “It’s like, a lifetime away.”
She also admitted during the summer that reunion prep is just not something that she does these days. “I feel like we used to, like, back in the old days, I used to rewatch some episodes and try to remember what she said. And honestly, now I just hope, you know, my hair looks good and the HD camera’s broken,” she admitted.
Gina Kirschenheiter reveals how she will come to the RHOC Season 19 reunion
The RHOC cast member admitted that prepping is something that is not a part of her lifestyle at all. Even when it comes to reunions. “I never prep. I’m not a prepper. I don’t prep for anything. I should probably be prepping more,” she told The Daily Dish in an August interview, with a laugh. “Which has been, you know, it’s caught me before. But I just don’t.”

“I think I’m just better in the moment. I literally, I say what I have to say during the season. I make a decision on something. I don’t change my mind,” she continued. “I’m not a game player. I’m not a strategic player. So I just will come to the Reunion and, honestly, probably feel mostly the same way that I felt throughout the season. I don’t know, I will just say that again.”
Katie Ginella reveals why she was trying to get through RHOC Season 19
When The Daily Dish spoke with Katie in July, she admitted that she wasn’t even thinking about the upcoming reunion. “I really am trying not to think about the reunion yet. I’m trying to get through each week and each episode,” she said.
“But I think this year, I just have to be more prepared in being confident in what I’m saying and defending myself a little bit better,” she noted, after completing her first reunion last year.Â
Tamra Judge admits that reunions cause her “stress”
Tamra has been sitting down for reunions for years and years. But, over the summer, Tamra told The Daily Dish that reunions never get easier for her.

“I think the only prep that I do for the reunion is stress. I stress out like crazy,” she admitted. “But you know, I always get a little botox and make sure my hair is done and, yeah, just show up. I don’t really like the olden days, like sit down and rehash everything that’s happened. I’m just, I’m just going in. Whatever happens happens.”
