Real Housewives of Orange County star Tamra Barney is engaged to her love of two years, Eddie Judge, according to reports.

The Bravo reality star, 43, and her sexy Latin lover, 38, began dating shortly after her messy split from then-husband Simon Barney in January 2010. Although Barney admitted she was scared off the idea of marriage after her divorce, she later professed that Judge was her "soulmate."

Although there has yet to be an official announcement from the happy couple, it has been reported that they are trying to keep their wedding news under wraps until they shoot the reunion special that will air on Bravo later in the year.

Wedding details, including whether the network will film the ceremony, are not yet known, but we have to wonder which other Housewives will score an invite to the big day?

They're back!

The Real Housewives Of Orange County have touched down in LA, and of course their first stop had to be the posh outdoor mall, The Grove, to indulge in some major retail therapy, and do an interview with Extra!

The tanned and toned ladies of the OC are retuning for their 7th season on Bravo, and now that a new Housewife has been thrown into the mix, we're expecting the most dramatic season yet.

Bring it on!

Bravo

Is Bravo's most famous franchise falling apart? The Real Housewives series on Bravo has flourished as a huge hit for the network -- shows fueled by gossip, drama and catty fun for the audience.

But it seems cast members are reaching their limits for the very real drama the show brings to their lives.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' Taylor Armstrong's estranged husband committed suicide in August. Family and friends spoke of pressures he felt from the show, and Russell himself said it had pushed his family "to the limit." Taylor told Dr. Phil McGraw that Russell might still be alive if not for the show.

Then, over the weekend New Jersey's Jacqueline Laurita, Tweeted that she was "losing it" from all the drama with other cast members, and said she had quit the show in the middle of filming Season 4.

Now, Orange County's newest cast member, Peggy Tanous (left), has quit. She posted to her Facebook page on Tuesday:

"I have declined their [Bravo's] offer to return to the show. ... being around the negative energy of certain cast members, being forced to have 'dramatic' confrontations ... was just not a healthy path for me ..."

Tanous, 41, had only been a member for the most recent season (season six.)

Bravo recently fired four members of its Real Housewives of New Jersey cast. What do you think -- is the series reaching its breaking point?

"Is your a** jealous of the s*** that comes out of your mouth?"

"You were sleeping with another guy while your fiance was dying."

"She's lying!"

"You are lying!"

"You're the lowest form of s*** there is in the world."

Those are just a few of the choice statements screamed in the preview for The Real Housewives Of Orange County reunion, which airs June 12 at 9 p.m. EST on Bravo. The season finale airs this Sunday.

Since Bravo is promoting the reunion and the season finale hasn't even aired yet, we're guessing that the reunion gets even more volatile than the preview shows!

The trailer even features Vicki Gunvalson's estranged husband, Donn, saying: "I don't think the way this went down was treated with class or dignity." That's more sad than salacious. (This season chronicled their relationship's breakdown.)

Gunvalson was photographed out with a new boyfriend in May.

Gunvalson released the following statement: "Donn has been an important part of my life and he will continue to be. Anyone who has gone through a divorce understands that this is a personal matter and a difficult time in our lives. It's amicable and we are not at odds with one another. It's just time. I would also like to thank all of you for the love and support that we have received."

This was Vicki's second marriage. The couple renewed their vows in front of the cameras in 2009.



The ladies of Bravo's Real Housewives series stepped out in their finest the other night for the television upfronts in New York.

NeNe Leakes, Sheree Whitfield, Lisa Wu Hartwell, Kim Zoiciak, and Kandi Burruss all posed for us -- Kelly Bensimon kept her distance from this gang ...

So The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is up next. We can't wait to see who they cast!

Hotlanta, hot date, y'all!

X17online is hearing that Real Housewives of Atlanta's Kim Zolciak and Britney's manager Larry Rudolph are hooking up tonight for a dinner date in Atlanta!

Brit's in the southern city for a stop on the Circus tour and I guess Kim Z. wanted to seize the moment!

A source tells X17online that Britney herself MAY chaperone OR the lovebirds may hook up before Brit and pals join them.

Do you love this couple, or what?!
