You make the show!!!! Last night on the reunion part 1 the way you handeled yourself........class act! You just keep on getting better..keep it up!

Gretchen, Your outwardly a beautiful woman (and you know it). Love your laugh........ From what I've read and seen of you, you've got some issues that aren't pretty or functional.

I absolutelyyyyy LOVE the blackk (it has like black && pinkk && ii believe it's a "G") bathing suit youhhh have! It's effin khutee I really want to know were yuhh got it?

You are my absolute favorite housewife and I think you have been through a terrible ordeal with losing Jeff. I also believe you deserve to love someone again, but although I wasn't watching the program when Slade was on it before, I have to wonder why he doesn't work. He seems very genuine toward you, but it shouldn't be enough to keep him from getting a job. I would just hate to see you get hurt again.

what happened to all slade's money? when he was w/ jo he had a house full of kids and tons of $. he paid for everything and she didn't have to work. now you talk about how you and he have $ issues. what happened to his job? kids?
don't you think it's weird that as soon as he wasn't w/ a housewife who was still on the show, he moved to someone else? you're #3 or #4 out of a similar # of unmarried housewives. it's seems like too much of a coincidence to a reasonable person.
do you ever think and ask yourself why all the nervous laughter?

I was wondering where you got the turquoise swimsuit that you wore on the episode where you went to Arizona with Slade? That swimsuit is absolutely adorable and I love it! You are great on the show and I look forward to seeing you overcome all the struggles that life has thrown at you. Keep your head up and stay optimistic and I'm sure karma will turn its way towards you.

would love to know where your bathing suit is from? onyour facebook profile pic

Gretchen - U are great on the show and keep it fun and I'm glad Slade and u are in love. I agree with u that Tamra should not have entertained the caller and listenend to their story and passed judgement on you. She was way out of line and she knows it. p.s. i like having slade back on the show and not with jo!...:-)

You are def. My favorite. I think you put up with a lot of crap. Keep me laughing!

Gretchen....Everytime I see you and Tamra together I am thinking how short life can be to hold such a grudge. If you were older, maybe you would realize this too. Yes, many hurtful words were spoken, but it REALLY IS TIME to stop all this nonsense and bickering about who said what and why. Learn to forgive, and life will be much happier for both of you. I did see Tamra reach out to you....and you still doubted her sincerity....why can't you just take an apology and accept it???? We all need forgiveness in our heart.

Gretchen..you are so so beautiful!!!!!!!! i admire you...
i love watching...the show..love love your personality..looks,friendliness....etc..

keep being you..don't change..be yourself..

wish you the best in life..

Gretchen Rossi,

I just LOVE watching you on the show...I always have to tune in every Thursday night to see what you are wearing and how your hair is so prefect...you are my favorite!

xoxo
kc

I just adore you and your my favorite housewife! I honestly think Tamara is doing a lot of hating against you to the point of jealousy!!! It doesn't matter what you do in your life, she had no business talking to you like that! Stay true to yourself and your step children! xoxo Linda :)

Hey Girl! You are the most beautiful Housewife cast member EVER and I am not a lesbian, lol. Tamra and Vicki are SO obviously jealous of you it is funny to watch! Much love from Mississippi! Keep them hating!

Team Gretchen

You are simply precious! Love watching you! So glad to see you having fun again...Keep giving us great TV.

Watching you is soo entertaining and uplifting, you have soo much confidence and are so full of life, its great!

Live your life, you don't have time for haters! If I get a makeover, I'd be you.

Gretchen, you are amazing. I just want to tell you that the whole Tamara issue is way out of control. You are just a beautiful, and sweet person and you don't deserve to be treated that way. It makes me upset when ever Tamara bring up everything over and over again. She need to grow up and get over it. Keep living your life the way you do. Your happy now and that great. You Rock! :)

Gretchen- Please post your makeup tips! Please let us know colors and brands you wear. I love your makeup:)

Gretchen,

Don't worry about Tamra and all the hate she seems to have for you. Your life is your business....not hers! Thank you for telling her to "you know what" at the cuff party. That was awesome and so great to see how shocked she was that you called her out. You go girl!

You are one awesome chica and I'm SO happy that your doing better! Don't change who you are for anyone because you are definitely one positive person out of a crowd of many that this world needs right now.
Stay true to yourself because you are one amazing person =]

Love you girl! Wish I could be on the show too!

Do you always talk about yourself in the third person?

Gretchen- I'm not worried about you. You have a great attitude toward everything and you are very good at brushing off the negative and focusing on the positive. Honestly, I didn't even bother to find out if all the accusations are true. I know that the majority of them are not true, and the rest are for you to deal with. We don't need to know what's true and neither does Tamra. Plus, you openly admit that you aren't proud of everything, but you haven't done anything to compromise your character. Everyone has moments they wish never happened, but the most important thing is that you are ok with yourself, and I know you are.

No matter what happens, I see that you are adaptable and you will be just fine! Keep the positive attitude going. :) You are awesome.

You've been my favorite since you first came on to the Housewives last season. You're fun and unpretentious - a breath of fresh air to the other housewives. I love how you keep your head up when the other girls are doing everything to shoot you down -- I deal with a lot of that myself at my school and seeing the same drama happen to you on the show made just me realize it's all because of jealousy. You're clearly the most beautiful Housewife and you always have fun no matter what you're doing. You've openly admitted you don't have money and neither does Slade, and the fact you're still going on doing your own thing, being your own person, is inspiring. The photos leaked of you sucks, but for Christ's sake do the other Housewives not realize this has happened to 75% of celebrities?!

You're a fantastic person and a good role model to the rest of us.

Yes i would like by saying Gretchen you are beautiful women and i think there is a lot of jealousy towards you and its childish and stupid. If Slade makes you happy then he is for you, everyone has past relationships and its really no ones business. Please continue to be your self and enjoy what life hands you.

I've never written in to anything like this but just wanted you to know that I believe you should remain your own person regardless what anyone else thinks. You should be allowed to do whatever you want as long as you are not hurting others which I've never seen you do and don't think you ever would. I think you are fun, young & experiencing life the way you want to. And EVEN if you wanted to drink a little too much or sleep with a few guys so who cares! I just don't really think it matters. Anyway - I think you've been given a hard time and it irritates me to no end. Hang in there girlfriend!

YOU ARE SO PRETTY AND BEAUTY BRINGS HATE.LET THEM HATE YOU,DO YOUR THING YOUR YOUNG AND PRETTY..LOVE YOU

Gretchen!!! A big thanks to you and Slade for actually talking to me (via Jim's cell phone)!!!! I met Alexis & Jim at lunch in Caesar's Palace on Sat. - we sat next to each other. What a nice couple - so approachable and down to earth. For Jim to hand me his cell phone so I could talk to you guys was a HUGE THRILL!!! Really, thank you for talking to me!!! Love you guys!!

I just wanted to say thank you. Thank you for making me want to pay attention to myself again. Thank you for being so dignified and strong through your trauma (not to mention maintaining your beautocity). Thank you for reminding me that I am important, even when my priorities have been taken up by real housewive mundane-ness. Thank you for saying "f**k you world" for those of us who just gave up because of the chatterbox windbags in our lives. You keep your head held high, keep your priorities in perspective, and don't give a damn what the other gals say. You know... girls have nothing if they don't have someone to hate on.

Gretchen
F--- everyone else! Ignore the haters, and keep being your carefree, sweet, unassuming self. You add such a breath of fresh air to the show, and I love that you have the courage to stand up and show your real self. I've learned that women will try to tear down someone they feel jealous of and it's clearly displayed on the show. You don't even need to DO anything, because everyone see's it. What separates you from them, is your ability to ignore what they say and carry on, even with all the crap you've been through in the last two years! What an inspiration you are. You could really be a catalyst for change in young girls' lives, and I hope you cease that opportunity. Smooches, keep up the happy!

Hi, Gretchen I just took the quiz over which housewife are you? I was YOU! I was soooooooooooooo excited you are my favorite on the show. I think you are the most fun, bubbly, and sweetest person on the show with the best wardrobe can't forget that. I love your dogs to they are super cute. I have kept up with you since last season. That was hard you are all over the place. L.O.L:)

I am so sorry about Jeff I cried when he passed away he was a really great guy it seemed like with what I saw of him. You two would have been the perfect couple. I do have a feeling in me that you and slade have a bright future.

I hope you have a happy holiday season,
xoxoxox Liv:)

I gotta know too.....where did you get that pink and turquoise bathing suit??? Come on, tell us!!!

Gretchen do not change...you're great and I think you and Slade are good together. You just keep having fun and let those creeps say what they will. In fact, give them more to talk about. It's actually kind of funny to watch them cry while you're having a good time.

I like your attitude and your so HOTTT! Tamara is hating on you girl

gretchen! hey,girl you just keep being you.love ya!

I have been thumbing through the messages being left for you Gretchen, 4 about 25 mins. now and I have not read ONE negative comment!!!! I LOVE IT!!! You could easily b a spokesmodel for ANYTHING!!! Give back to yourself, for putting yourself out there for all to judge, just like other popular entertainers. You should reap some bene's for it, just like the others!
A Fan

p.s. ALOT of peeps that find over night semi-fame usually get a HEAD LIKE A LED BALOON, PLZ OH PLZ GRETCH, DON'T DO THAT, AND CHANGE EVERYONE ONES ADMIRATION 4 U, INTO CHARACTER SUICIDE & EVERYBODY JUST WAITING FOR YOU TO "GO AWAY" REMEMBER THE MEDIA "LOVES" TO BUILD EM UP, JUST TO TAKE EM DOWN. KEEP YOUR FAM. CLOSE TO YOU. WHOEVER KEEPS IT REAL THE MOST ARE THE ONES YOU WANT BY YOUR SIDE SWEETIE, TRUST!!!
Luvs, Laurazzz2010

Gretchen you deserve to be happy. Three and half year I lost my
husband of almost 30 years of marriage. Then a year after he died
my only son of 27 was diagnoised with glioblastmo of the brain. After two surgeries to remove the tumors he lost his battle with
this horrible cancer on November 4th of this year. Watching you is giving me at this early stage some hope that I will be smiling and be able to enjoy my life without the two loves of my life. Keep smiling you are beautiful!!!

I think you and Slade are great together. I hope it works out with the two of you. I hope you get married and have beautiful children together.

I know its so super cute!! Does anyone know where its from?

Please tell us where you got the blue and pink bikini!!!

Gretchen, I think you're great! You are by far my favorite housewife and I love watching you. My fiancee hates the show but he admits that he has a crush on you. :) Stay strong and don't let the lies bring you down!

You go, girl! I just love watching you week after week; I feel like you're not afraid to show your true self, whether it's laughing and being silly with Slade, having a great time with friends and family, or opening up and recounting Jeff's last days (which are TRULY heartwrenching, by the way! You are amazingly strong and have gotten even STRONGER since last season!). I love that, as stunningly drop-dead gorgeous as you are, you're not obsessed with how you look to the degree that the other housewives seem to be. You're not afraid to laugh at yourself and have a good time. And while I'm glad to hear that you and Tamra are deciding to let the past be just that and move forward, proceed with caution: Perhaps that rest of the season will reveal more, but at this point, I (and a lot of others, I imagine) do NOT trust her. And congratulations on your newfound happiness with Slade. I wasn't the biggest fan of his, but your relationship with him has caused me to see him in a new light. You both seem VERY happy together and I wish you all the best! Keep on kicking a**!!!!

Gretchen last season I thought you were super shady and I thought you weren't sincere....however this year I absolutley lovvvee you! I'm not sure what has changed but to be honest I found that the things that were said about you weren't true. Keep shining girl! :)

Gretchen, i love that bikini you wore on your Arizona trip. Which designer is it? Love your #1 fan

Gretchen! We love you marry us!
P and A ;)

Keep doing YOU Gretchen~you're doing yourself proud. Since lovely Jeana left there's only you who shows what it means to be a real, compassionate and classy lady. I don't know how you managed to hold your tongue this long. I'm glad you finally bit back. I have 3 grown children and if my daughter conducted herself like you a midst all the crazies and craziness, I would be very pleased. Please do not bring yourself down to their level often~that would be the saddest thing to witness. It seems like you and Slade are having a great time and have really good communication. It all boils down to this~your heart's in the right size and place............you will be happy. People like you deserve it, and people like you go out and find it! You're awesome!!!!!

Love ya', Gretchen! Keep being true to YOURSELF! Forget the haters.
LIVE life to the full! Live, Love, Laugh!

Jeana has always been my favorite (after Lori left), however, I'm slowly beginning to warm up to you. I hope you are happy no matter what I think of Slade.

Hi Gretchen,
First of all, I'm a Hairstylist and have to tell you that your hair is absolutely gorgeous and whoever does you color is doing an amazing job. Second of all, you are my favorite and I think that all of the drama is caused by total jealousy towards you so
keep your head up high and continue doing what you do best...which is to be Gretchen!!! and we love that!!!
