Somehow, Cynthia Bailey and her cheekbones have made their way into yet another Housewives franchise. The former Real Housewives of Atlanta star has found herself involved in Heather Dubrow’s drama on Real Housewives of Orange County.
For those keeping score at home, this is now the fourth Housewives franchise she’s been loosely involved with. Last season, she floated around in the background on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. She also popped up at Teresa Giuidce’s wedding on Real Housewives of New Jersey after befriending the OG on Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip. Cynthia stays busy, but on RHOC, she’s finding herself caught up in some off-camera mess.
How Cynthia got involved in the RHOC drama
During RHOC Season 18, Episode 4, we learned that newbie Housewife Katie Ginella is actually friends with Cynthia. Katie told Gina Kirschenheiter about a lunch she recently had with the former RHOA star. Apparently, Cynthia dropped major tea about Heather.
“I have a friend, Cynthia. I just saw her the other day for lunch. Heather’s new to the social circle she’s in,” Katie explained in the episode.
Katie revealed that she heard about how Cynthia and Heather showed up at the same birthday party in Los Angeles. At the party, Cynthia claimed that Heather grilled her with questions about Katie. They call that opposition research.
“I saw her the other day, and she was like ‘I went to this thing and the first person to beeline to me was Heather. And she said, ‘Hi, I’m Heather, nice to meet you. How do you know Katie Ginella?’,” Katie recalled.
She continued, “[Heather] wanted to know everything about me. That was the only question she asked for and the only thing she wanted.'”
Was Heather being nosy, messy, or maybe a combination of the two? That’s up for debate. Gina theorized that this probably all has to do with Heather feeling protective of her Los Angeles friend group. Whatever the issue is, it’s clear we’ve just scratched the surface of this beef between Heather and Katie. Perhaps Cynthia can be the one to bring them together.
Keep watching Season 18 of Real Housewives of Orange County on Thursdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
