There are only five days left to shop for Christmas, but Gina Kirschenheiter is hoping to get something money can't buy for the holidays this year.

How to Watch

Watch The Real Housewives of Orange County on Peacock and the Bravo App.

The Real Housewives of Orange County mom recently told Page Six that all she wants for Christmas this year is for her divorce from husband Matt Kirschenheiter to be "wrapped up in a nice bow" and be finalized. “It’s a lot of paperwork! It’s such a stupid process that nobody tells you about!” she said with a laugh, according to Page Six.

Gina filed for divorce from Matt on April 2, citing irreconcilable differences. RHOC fans saw Gina come to that difficult decision and cope with life after her split in Season 13.

 

Gina previously shared in an interview with The Daily Dish as well as at the RHOC Season 13 reunion that she and Matt had not yet told their children (Nicholas, 6, Sienna, 4, and Luca, 3) about their divorce. However, Gina told Page Six that she and Matt recently had the tough discussion with Nicholas.

The family of five also plans on celebrating Christmas together, according to Page Six. Gina and Matt spent Thanksgiving together, and they took the below beautiful family photo.

As you can see, Gina is already in the Christmas spirit.

Gina is committed to keeping her family together all year round, forever and ever. "No matter what happens in our relationship, I do respect him and I do love [Matt]," she shared at the RHOC Season 13 reunion. "He's the father of my children, and I really, really, really, really want to have a good relationship with him because it's forever and it's hard and it sucks. I really want that."
