Things are about to get a lot juicier in the OC! 
Watch The Real Housewives of Orange County on Bravo Thursday, July 11 at 9/8c and next day on Peacock. This summer, viewers will be reunited with their favorite Southern California girls as Season 18 premieres in July to bring endless laughs, epic cast trips, and lots of drama. But that’s not all! The returning ‘Wives will welcome Katie Ginella to the mix… and as you can see from the trailer above, she’s not afraid of calling anyone out.
Meet The Real Housewives Of Orange County’s New ‘Wife, Katie Ginella
While we won’t get to meet Katie officially until the new season kicks off in July, you can learn a little bit more about her professional and personal life now. New to the season is Housewife and former golf reporter Katie Ginella, a friend of Gina Kirschenheiter who instantly wedges herself into the group along with her opinions. Born in South Korea and adopted into a Catholic family in Georgia, Katie is a busy mom of four with children ages 6 to 19.
After meeting the ladies, Katie immediately finds herself smack dab in the middle of the drama and gets a quick lesson in how loyalty works in the OC.
