Lydia McLaughlin Shows off Her Humongous Orange County Pool and Hot Tub

Shannon Beador's new pool is calling our name, and we have major backyard envy over Emily Simpson's lagoon-style setup. But if you need more proof that Orange County has some incredible swim swagger, look no farther than Lydia McLaughlin's backyard. 

The Real Housewives of Orange County alum recently posted a TikTok starring her gorgeous pool. In the video, Lydia and her hubby, Doug, stood beside an expanse of sparkling turquoise water. And though Doug very nearly pushed his wife in, she managed to spring back up in a gravity-defying act. This in and of itself was impressive, but we really need to talk about the pool. 

With a handsome stone border, the water seemed to stretch on endlessly, with no apparent end in sight. A pearly tiled wall encloses the elevated hot tub. And behind the pool, we can just make out the edge of a basketball hoop and some gymnastic equipment, where Lydia's three boys love to play. (See them in action in the clip above.)
