Gina Kirschenheiter: I Think Vicki's Heart is in the Right Place

"What Vicki doesn't understand and seems unwilling to understand is that not everyone’s situation is the same."

Vicki Gunvalson Wants to Iron Out Her Conflict With Gina Kirschenheiter

Bravotv.com: How does it feel to have your parents in town? How often do they come?

How to Watch

Watch The Real Housewives of Orange County on Thursdays at 9/8c and next day on Peacock. Catch up on the Bravo App.

Gina Kirschenheiter: It is beyond nice to have my parents in town. It is always obviously nice to get a guilt-free break from the kids, so that is always a bonus! But also, my parents are my rock. They help keep me grounded and centered. They give me the feeling that I hope one day I can give to my kids: that everything will be okay. They give me the confidence to be who I am and feel what I feel without judgment. And I know they will also let me know when they don’t agree with me, but they do it in a way that isn’t hurtful or judgmental. They just allow me to see the other side of things when I need to. Their visit this time couldn’t have come at a better time. I was starting to feel like I was going crazy! I needed the reassurance and love!

Bravotv.com: How did you feel about your coffee with Vicki?

GK: Coffee with Vicki was okay. I honestly do think that Vicki’s heart is in the right place. She cares for me and she doesn’t want to see me make a decision that I will regret, as she has. What she doesn’t understand and seems unwilling to understand is that not everyone’s situation is the same. I am to the point with this where I truly feel we will just have to agree to disagree. There is nothing that Vicki is going to say to me to make me feel like I don’t have the best understanding of my situation or my family’s needs. We ended coffee with her saying she would support me and stop harping on it, so I hope we can just move forward from this point and leave it alone.
