Gretchen Rossi Flawlessly Offers a Pregnancy Update While Clapping Back: "Haters Can Suck It"

The RHOC alum remains as sassy as ever.

By Jocelyn Vena

Gretchen Rossi has been an open book throughout her journey to motherhood. And now that she's officially pregnant after years of IVF, that policy holds true. The Real Housewives of Orange County alum took to Instagram this week to offer an update on Baby Smiley — and in the process, flawlessly shut down all the haters out there.

How to Watch

Watch The Real Housewives of Orange County on Peacock and the Bravo App.

"Had my 16 week appointment today and Baby Smiley is doing great! Cannot wait for my bump to really pop! Don’t have much of a belly yet, just more of a pooch where I look like I ate too many donuts. Thank you to those who have sent such kind messages of love and encouragement during this special time. Means a lot to us!" she wrote. "Also I asked my doctor today if it was normal that I didn’t have much of a belly yet, and she said that when you are fit (and especially during your first pregnancy) sometimes you don’t “pop” until later (5-6 months) so I felt relieved after reading some of the ridiculous comments yesterday on my post. So any haters can suck it. (I mean that in the nicest way possible)."

Clearly, impending motherhood has not affected Gretchen's penchant for sass.

Gretchen confirmed her pregnancy in December; this is the first child for her. Her longtime love, Slade Smileyhas two sons, Gavin and Grayson, from previous relationships.
