The cast of The Real Housewives of Orange County filmed their season 18 reunion on Sunday. And on social media, fans got their first look at the ladies on their big day.
As Andy Cohen, 56, shared a behind-the-scenes photo and Jennifer Pedranti, 47, and Tamra Judge, 57, were seen before the taping began, Bravo released the official seating chart, and a leaked image of Gina Kirschenheiter, 40, and Emily Simpson, 48, hit the web.
On October 6, from the set of the RHOC reunion, Andy posted an image on his Instagram Story of a series of cue cards lying on a tiled floor. Meanwhile, on the way to film the special, Jennifer shared a pic of herself in a car with the caption, “Big Day!”
On Bravo’s Instagram page, it confirmed the seating chart, revealing that Shannon Beador, 60, and Tamra nabbed the two coveted spots beside Andy, with Shannon to his left and Tamra to his right.
Rounding out the couch to Andy’s right were Gina, Jennifer, and Katie Ginella, 40, from the closest to Andy to the furthest, and to his left were Emily, Heather Dubrow, 55, and Alexis Bellino, 47.
Although Alexis was only a “friend” on season 18, her romance with Shannon’s ex-boyfriend, John Janssen, 61, and the drama that caused seemed to have secured her an extended role at the reunion, rather than the standard cameo made by normal friends.
On Tamra’s Instagram Story, she posted a photo of her trailer and inside of it, where she was seen with two members of her glam team before filming began.
“Let’s do this…” she wrote in one post.
“The best glam in the OC,” she added with a second.
Meanwhile, on Gina’s Instagram page, after a photo of her and Emily was leaked, she explained what happened to her online audience and teased an upcoming pic that will reportedly be shared by Bravo.
The Real Housewives of Orange County season 18 airs Thursdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
