‘Real Housewives of Orange County’ preview: The Vicki Gunvalson injury aftermath

On Monday night’s new episode of “The Real Housewives of Orange County” episode, we’re going to pick up not too long after where Monday night’s installment left off. We saw Vicki Gunvalson get into an accident while out in the desert, and everyone will still be trying to move forward from what transpired.

The synopsis below gives you a small sense as to what is coming up, in particular when it comes to how some women’s refusal to pay Vicki a visit could lead to some further conflict down the road:

“As the women recover from the accident in Glamis, Tamra returns intent on carrying on with the trip. New alliances form in the wake of Meghan and Shannon’s refusal to visit Vicki at the hospital. Back in the OC, Tamra contemplates postponing her fitness competition. While Meghan goes to Vicki’s house to make amends, Shannon attempts to get back into her friends’ good graces.”

Specifically, the promo makes it look like there is some major tension coming between Tamra Judge and Shannon Beador, as the former asks the latter if she is upset over Vicki’s injury because it keeps her from being able to play the victim as much as she’d like. It’s a harsh thing to say, but at the same time this is a show where these sorts of things are said more often than not.

Of course, there are going to be some other assorted events that take place as well, and that includes Tamra debating as to what to do next with her fitness competition after so many months of training. We’ll have more on this episode as we get closer to it airing, but we imagine it’s not going to slow much down in terms of drama. Hopefully, there just won’t be any injuries.
