Resolved Legal Issues & Big Family Updates: Where the RHOC Cast Stands After Season 18
Find out how the RHOC cast's lives have changed since filming wrapped on Season 18.
The Real Housewives of Orange County cast said goodbye to Season 18 with a wonderfully tacky engagement party thrown in Jennifer Pedranti's honor, but it's safe to say that a lot has changed with the group since the celebration was filmed.
Thankfully, the RHOC ladies — which includes cast members Shannon Storms Beador, Tamra Judge, Heather Dubrow, Emily Simpson, Gina Kirschenheiter, Jennifer Pedranti, and Katie Ginella, as well as friend Alexis Bellino — will fully unpack everything that's gone down between them when the three-part reunion kicks off on Thursday, Nov. 7.
In the meantime, viewers can get a better idea of where the 'Wives stand in their friendships and relationships by turning to the updates shared at the end of the RHOC Season 18 finale on Oct. 31.

Shannon's final update of the season read: "Shannon's girls are thriving in NYC and Paris. Shannon is slowly entering the dating pool, and although Alexis may have taken her problem.. one still remains with the unsettled lawsuit."
