Emily Simpson Wants Alexis Bellino Back on RHOC, But What About Vicki Gunvalson?

The Real Housewives of Orange County's Emily Simpson came ready to show off her new hip and answer any questions fans had at BravoCon 2019. (And boy were her answers juicy.)

During the Housewife2Housewife panel on November 16 (which also featured Ashley Darby, Gizelle Bryant, and Melissa Gorga), a fan asked the panel to share the Housewife they're closest to from their show, and who they'd be happy to see leave their respective franchises. Ready to see Emily's answers?

"Even though Gina [Kirschenheiter] and I had our ups and downs this season, we’re still super tight, so I talk to her. And Kelly Dodd and I are super tight," she shared. "As far as removing someone... you guys are gonna get me in trouble. Um. You know, I love Vicki Gunvalson and I think she's great TV, but I also think, I don't know, maybe it’s time for her to…" 

That's not all she said about RHOC cast members. When another fan asked Emily which OC Housewife she'd like to see return to the show, without hesitation she responded, "I think Alexis Bellino would be great."

This doesn't come as too much of a surprise, since we learned that Emily and Alexis are friends during a special appearance from the OC alum this season. "I've known Alexis for a couple of years. We actually kind of live in the same area, and she is friends with some of my friends, so I've always run into her and talked to her at mutual birthday parties for kids and things like that. We meet for coffee and just kind of chit chat," Emily told The Daily Dish earlier this year. 

Alexis is one of several RHOC alums Emily has close ties to. The mother of three is also friends with alums Gretchen Rossi, Lizzie Rovsek, Lauri Peterson, and Lynne Curtin.
