Get Motivated!

Jeana talks New Years, Tamra's relationship troubles, Gretchen's intervention with Alexa, and more.

January 8, 2010

 

I hope everyone had an amazing New Years Eve! I went to the St. Regis with 1000 of my closet friends - it was a night to remember! And you know what happens now - the biggest membership enrollment is January for all the health clubs! Join me in making 2010 the year to get your body in the best shape ever. Duzoxin and other weight loss helpers, can’t do it all, you need, to eat right and exercise. Send me Facebook starting pictures and weights and in four months we will compare! Jeanakeough.com. Let's do it together! There have been many stories about me losing my homes to foreclosure and short sales, not true! The banks have been great in restructuring my loans on Kara's, Shane's, Matt's and my houses. If you know anyone wanting to sell or refi, or buy a house please refer him or her to me! I know you think I am a reality star, but my real job for the past 20 years has been in real estate. It is a passion, finding people the perfect home. There has never been a better time to buy! Come on people get motivated!

This week's episode was a surprise! It is hard to believe that the five girls kept Vicki and Donn’s renewing their bonds a secret! It was very touching and sweet, and I loved her Michael Costello wedding dress. I wish them luck in the next 15 years! Relationships take work, and respect for each other, good luck to you both. It looks like they had a great time and maybe now she will take Donn on a few vacations! It is hard to judge other people’s marriages and all of us need to keep our opinions to ourselves. (Simon and Vicki are you reading this?) I know people were very opinionated on my marriage and it was hurtful hearing the comments made on air six months later. Remember alcohol is a disease, dealing with it in your family is rough I have learned a lot about it in the last 6 years. I have learned that I don’t have to live with it anymore. But I also know that you can never shake the feeling, that maybe you didn’t do enough, and that I will carry with me forever. I would like to thank most of you for your positive comments and insight into getting help with my demons of trying to take care of everyone. I have people living with me who have lost their homes. All of us need to do the work not just do the lip service of showing up at church on Sundays. I appreciate my fans and love the delight on your faces when you see me out and about, I have made so many interesting new friends from being apart of this show. I am not sure how much longer Bravo will want me to blog on a show I am no longer on, so I treat each one as my last! Jeanakeough@blogspot.com is a way to keep in touch with me, or Facebook.

I really think Tamra needs to think about what she is saying about her husband, some of those personal thoughts should be kept for a marriage counselor and not TV consumers. I know we are sharing are lives, but come on people! Most people wouldn’t say those things to their best friends much less 3.2 million viewers. I guess I should have shared some of the things that happened to my children with Tamra, because mommie dearest was on TV. Tamra has three small children in school and kids can be vicious, Simon is a strong father, my husband was really strict also, he would take the cars away for bad grades and I would give them back two days later because I hated getting up for zero period and god knows our society could use a few more strong fathers. All of they boys' friends were afraid of Matt, he expected a lot of his boys and if the friends didn't measure up he didn’t want them around. My sons are grown now and I can look back at laugh at the issues we had, when I made Colton come home from a sleepover because the Mom was taking the boys toilet papering! Shane's friends all come back from college laughing at how strict I was. They thought I was a pushover for taking them in anytime of night, but the next day calling their moms. It takes a town to raise a child!

Hi Jeana please tell me that you are going to return to the show again i miss you. You were the most honest and genuine housewive in my opinion and have a wonderful family Shane is so cute and Colton an Kara are also amazing you have done yourself proud i watched all episodes back to back took me 3 days to watch them and i have to say i loved every minute spent watching your family sending warmest wishes from Ireland come back soon.

What a level head you have and I hate that you are not on a regular on the show any longer. You are so correct...viewers Should be interested in things the 'life experiences' of the "Real Housewives" could be teaching them. I'll be willing to bet that aspect was Never brought up; NEVER. Looks to me the sponsors only want DRAMA with claws out or boobs bulging. Best of luck in your life, you seem to be the most grounded of them all. God Bless.

Jeana,
I miss you on the show. I love the other ladies and Vicki has grown a little more on me but even my husband said you were the best on the show. I am happy that you are happier now and finding love and one day when you are not looking and think it is time to give up MR. Right will come along. You are a beautiful women with a lot to offer and any man would be lucky to have you. It is too bad your ex husband didn't realize that.

Live Love and Laugh as life is too short to make enemies!

AWWWW :( I am going to miss you on the show. You are the best housewife!

Jeana, you're my FAVORITE housewife of all time.
Be strong.

You will truly be missed! You were always my favorite!

You might want to give Vicki a call--I think she could use a REAL friend right about now.

Jeana, You are still my favorite. I am the mother of two sons and became a single mom when they were teenagers. Your parenting style and general demeanor is very similar to mine. I was sorry to see you leave the O.C.Housewives, but completely understand. Life is to short to have Vicki in it. What a piece of work she is. I was sooo pissed when she instigated the toilet papering of your home. Is she psycho or what? Who would have her handle their money? Give me a Break. I wish you and your beautiful children life has to offer. I enjoy my single life and am sure you will also. I like you were almost single before I became single since my husband also had a drinking problem and was miserable like your husband was with the intollerance with you and the kids. It was a relief when he left. I wish you the very best. Take Care, Jodie from San Diego

Jeanna, you are by far my favorite housewife and sorry to see you leave the show. I do understand priorites and respect you for that. Your objectiveness has always been a breath of fresh air on the show. Evil comments made by Tamra angered me. I did think the girls tping your house was funny! You shouldn't get angry. What was fun about it is that they all did it together laughing and not fighting or critizing each other. Gretchen is a strong young lady and can handle herself against trash like Tamra. You get what you deserve .... and you deserve nothing but the best. Vicki lost a great friend. See where she stands now with the ladies, especially her bff...talks about her when she is not there. Vicki and Donn and great! I am so glad they are in a better place. I want the best for you. Good luck and I will join you on your facebook. I can lose weight...I have been unemployed for 6 months and put on so much weight. I love working just cant find a job. Email me if you have any ideas. I would love to hear from you.

You and your lovely daughter will truely be missed! You were and will ALWAYS be my favorite housewife.

I would have to disagree about the whole Gretchen and Lynn thing. I believe your children is only your business alone. What you choose for them is what goes. Lynne had a right to step in.

All I have to say is you were my favorite. You were more mature and discreet than the others. I guess you could chalk it up to "class."

COME BACK,THE SHOW SUCKS WITHOUT YOU.

WOW!WHAT A BUNCH OF SHALLOW WOMEN!!Vicki and Don should just bow out of the whole show.They seem more ''real'' than the rest of the
bunch.Do they get paid for any of this?I will not watch this show any longer.I can not take the stupid cat fights and how they are all so fake!!

I understand your decision to leave the show but you brought such sensibility and reason to the other women. These women are catty and have too much free time. I think you brought a level of maturity that is lacking right now.

Hey I just hope that your former friend Vickie now understands what it feels like to be treated like crap by so called friends. You should have been treated with far more respect and love which is what you gave. I never saw you backbiting anyone (unless I missed an episode)and you never treated anyone unkind.

Jeana:

Losing Laurie was sad,but made sense. Losing you is ridiculous, you are the one most of us viewers can relate to. I must admit though - I wanted to slap Shane's face the day you and Vicky went to see him play. The way he talked to you not only in front of Vicky - but on national t.v.! You did not deserve that! If he were to ever make it to the major leagues- myself and others will not be fans. Sorry... I know you love him and dont want people to think badly- but he is old enough to know better..
Putting all that aside - it is time for the housewives to come together seriously- including you and Laurie.
Tamra and Symon divorce, Vickies daughter is sick,Lynne is financially blindsighted and is going to have a breakdown between her husbands financials secrets and the daughter from hell.... seriously.... BIG GROUP HUGS ARE NEEDED !!! Gretchen stay home...Slade will be moving on - when you invest your money in make up. Alexis you too.... way to much drama for you and it involved drama before you..

you reallyyyyyy made this show worth watching... now the show just is catty and unprofessional in every way....

you are amazing... and i truly respect your decision for leaving... thanks for the years

Glad your out of it. Your too decent for some of the nasty little minds. I don't see how people continue in this show for all the vicious back bitting that has been done.

You are so awesome. Please come back and so these people what a real lady is all about. I understand you frustration. They need to take lessons from you.

Jeana, you are great!! You are so classy and were my favorite on the show. You had sense enough to go on and get out of the mess while you were ahead. You and Gretchen need to start your own show!! That would be interesting!! Work it girl!!

I don't know when the Housewives Confess was but here in Brazil it just aired today. Anywho Jeana, I love the show and I love you. I really hope the show continues and that you find someone who truly "worships" you. You've done great with your kids and your daughter Kara seems real, caring towards you. I'm cheering for you. You really deserve the best and God Bless you!

Im sad your leaving. You were my favorite one. You seem honest and like a great friend. You always tried to stay out of all the high school drama. I wish you and your family the best!

SORRY TO LEARN YOU WILL NO LONGER BE ON HOUSEWIVES OF O.C. ACTUALLY I THINK YOU WERE THE ONLY ONE WITH A SMART HEAD ON
YOUR SHOULDERS AND I ENJOYED IT WHEN THEY FOCUSED ON YOUR STORY. GRETCHEN IS OK--I JUST THINK SHE NEEDS TO GROW UP A BIT. LYNN NEEDS TO CHANGE THE COLOR OF HER GLASSES--FROM ROSE COLORED TO REALITY. TAMRA AND VICKI - I'LL REMAIN SILENT ABOUT THEM AND I DON'T YET HAVE AN OPINION ON ALEXIS. BEST OF LUCK TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. I KNOW YOU WILL DO WELL.

Hi Jeana,

I want to let you know that you will be sadly missed! You were always my favourite housewife on any of the RH shows. I don't watch a whole lot of TV but I saw a clip of one of the Housewives shows and was soon thereafter addicted! I can honestly say it is my favourite thing to watch. We all have drama in our lives (hopefully not too much of it!) but it was somehow consoling to see how other people deal with it. I think I may even have learned a few things from your group.

I really wish you and your family the absolute best in life. One thing that stood out for me and shocked me was how Shane treated you when you visited him out of state. I was appalled. However, he seems to have grown up since then, and I hope he will treat you like the amazing mother that you are. You have always shown your children patience and unconditional love. You have such a warm spirit about you and they are lucky to have you for their mother. I really think Cara is a wonderful girl too. I think she has a lot of your same spirit. Your family is really beautiful and I wish you all the best in the future.

Jerry

Bring Gina back!!!! She's the only level headed one! Make it worth her while, we all miss her from OC to Texas!!

YOU"RE FABULOUS!

Jeana,

I miss you! You were my favorite housewife. Even when my fiance would watched the show (which is hard to get him to do), he said that you were his favorite because you were the most down to earth. Please reconsider coming back. It's just not the same without you!

Michelle

Jeana,
You are missed. Happy to hear you're doing well. Looking forward to seing you on the reunion show!! Take care.

Jeanna,
I miss you being on the show. You were the voice of reason. Now that is something greatly missing! I think you were wise to 'get out'. Vicki and Tamra are really judgmental and bringing the show to an all time low.
God bless.

Jeana COME BACK!!! COME BACK TO THE SHOW!!!

Jeana, I love you, come back and prove your weight loss(i'll say anything for you to come back) I wish you the best and hope that all is well with you. Again I wish you back and a matter of fact Lauri also you 2 were awesome housewives. O.L.

Miss seeing you on the show. You balanced the show being normal. Hope to see you return in the future, IF you would like to. Thanks for being real it made the show worth watching. Really hope you and Vicki can mend the fence as well. There were obvious misunderstandings. God Bless

Michelle

Jeana,

As always you are the most grounded and least self absorbed of them all. Kudos to you for getting on with your life and not judging people. Like it says in the good book, Judge not lest ye be judges. Keep on keeping on lady. My best to you and yours.

You are the best housewife. You are greatly missed. I were the only "real" housewife.

I think you're great, but even after being on this reality show are still very naive. Not everyone has your best interest at heart. I agree that it takes a village to raise a child- teachers, coaches, people who are going to inspire today's youth to reach their dreams. (Between you and me, I'm not sure Gretchen falls into that category.) And different parents have their own ways of parenting, I couldn't agree more with you in that involving your kids in sports, extracurricular activities, the arts, etc (all that require discipline and accountability) builds a strong foundation for them and makes a huge difference when they get older.

On another note, and maybe you can help me with this, I'm not sure why some kids in the O.C. who have everything to succeed in life are not succeeding. I was SO PROUD of your daughter for shopping at H&M and having the job waiting tables. That's great! She understands her situation and did what she had to do to move forward. And she could only do that because she had the right upbringing and a strong foundation that allows her to be a strong and positive woman.

I wish you and your family the best. Everyone has his or her way of doing things, and if what works for you might not for other people then who cares! =)

Jeanna, you are greatly missed. I hate to see what the other ladies are doing to each other and their marriages every week., with that being said, you did the right thing for yourself and your children and i really respect you for your decission for leaving.

i wish you a world of happiness and joy. just love life, yourself, and always your children. the hell with the rest

melissa reed

I definitely miss you. To me you were such a sweet, good friend to everyone. It is clear you couldn't hurt a fly and I felt bad when you and Vicki went from close to distant. I admire people that can be so genuine. My only wish for you is that when people talk down to you, especially Shane, you learn to say "that is inappropriate and you can't speak to me in that way". You are much to kind all of the time and my heart goes out for you when people don't treat in the same manner. All the best wishes!

Jeana,

I totally miss you on the show. You were the most real person in any of the Real Housewives show. Hope you and your totally normal & awesome kids are well.

Kathleen

i miss you jeana, come back...

Dear Jeana-
Just read your blog. I am so glad you are well and pray your family is happy & well. Truly miss you on RHOC, but can see why you no longer wanted to be a part of the DRAMA SQUAD. The show has really taken a bad turn since Tamra came on board. Feel really sorry for Gretchen, Tamra seems to have turned everyone against her, just like Vicki did with you. Those two really deserve each other. Can't wait to see who puts the knife in the back of the other first. Hopefully now that Tamra is involved with divorce procedures she will find better use of her time and leave the show. Sick of her drama, backstabbing, lying, ugly jealousy and constant one upping attempts. She gives Orange County women a bad reputation. You are truly missed Jeana, and you are the REAL Housewife of Orange County. God Bless you and your family always.

Jeana you were the best housewife on the show! The only one with real class and that really cares about her children more than money! I miss you on the show! I hope you are doing well. Take care.

You are sooo missed!!! You were the one to level out the girls. You are so right about Gretchen stepping in, Lynn need to look at thing from a positive out look. We all make mistakes and we all need a little help. I loved watching you because you could admit when you were wrong. You also knew how to defuse a bad situation. Now That's a GIFT! Well I miss seeing your smiling face every week but I will enjoy reading your Blog.
PS I hope I did this right! It's my first time blogging EVER!!!
Kathleen

JEANA YOU ARE THE BEST I MISS YOU ON THE SHOW BUT ITS GOOD YOU GOT OFF AND OUT OF ALL THE CRAP. IT SHOWS WHAT A TRUE PERSON YOU ARE. I HOPE THINGS ARE GOOD FOR YOU I HOPE YOUR LIFE IS BLESSED. YOUR TV FRIEND I GOT YOUR BACK GIRL ALWAYS JEWELS FROM MICHIGAN.

Hey Jeana
We miss you!! The housewives really need your positive attitude. They are missing a real friend. You have a way of keeping Tamara in check with reality, reminding Vicki to ease up. Gretchen needs a friend like you on her side and Lynn, well she's funny.
I'm so sorry about your divorce. good or bad its tough. I too know the struggles. Its great that you are focused on your career and exercise.
I really enjoyed Kara. She is such a sweetie. You've done a great jog.
Do you think that Bravo will allow a few drop in's?

PS.

What was up the comment that Tamara's made when the wives were their TP trip?
I've been a viewer from the first episode and never remember you doing anything to "all of the wives". I don't remember anything but honest comments between youself and Tamara. Sounds as if Tamara can't handle truth.
Hope to see you on Bravo soon.

Jeana: If you are really "Over the drama of the women" as you claim on the show, why are you blogging on this site? Seems like you couldn't take the heat of the show, but are perectly content with taking pot shots!

Really miss you and your kids not being on the show!!!

Jeana; You brought a balance to the show that is greatly missed. I have watched the last few episodes, and just can't stay interested anymore. Good luck to you in all you do and God Bless!

Jeanna - I miss you horribly on the show, but you did do the right thing by leaving. You are true to yourself and have more class then all of the others put together. There is so much turmoil in the world today and the women on there now seem to forget how bad things are for other people. I hope life brings you all the joy and happiness that is so well deserved. Keep your head held high and walk with pride. None of the others can hold a candle to you and Laurie.
