Vicki Gunvalson<\/a><\/strong>‘s run as the O.G. from the O.C. is officially over. <\/p>\n

The Real Housewives of Orange County<\/em> star announced her departure from the Bravo reality TV series on Friday.<\/p>\n

In a lengthy Instagram statement, Vicki said it was “time to say goodbye” to RHOC<\/em>, adding, “It’s been an incredible ride for 14 years and I want thank all of you for your support, for your love and for ‘whooping it up’ with me along the way.”<\/p>\n

Her exit comes after Season 14 saw Vicki featured as a “friend”<\/a> of the cast, as opposed to a full-fledged Housewife<\/em>. The unexpected demotion shocked her fellow Bravolebrities<\/a> at the time, but Vicki’s latest announcement isn’t a bombshell. During the RHOC<\/a><\/em> reunion special<\/a>, Vicki said she felt like a “has-been” next to her co-stars. Vicki’s defamation lawsuit against Bravo, which has since been dismissed, also left fans questioning her future on RHOC<\/em>. <\/p>\n

Don’t expect Vicki to stay unoccupied for long, though. She’s already promised a plethora of “exciting, empowering and inspirational” new projects. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“My podcast with Westwood One will be launching soon and I will have much more to say about this on Whoop It Up With Vicki<\/em>,” she wrote. “I hope you will join me with my new journey so please stay tuned. I love all my fans, and I want to thank Bravo and Evolution for this incredible experience which my family and I have will never forget.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

 Andy Cohen<\/a><\/strong> sent his well wishes to Vicki, commenting, “OG” with a heart and orange emoji. Kyle Richards<\/a><\/strong> and Luann de Lesseps<\/a><\/strong> also sent their love via social media. <\/p>\n

Last season’s cast starred Tamra Judge<\/strong>, Shannon Beador<\/strong>, Kelly Dodd<\/strong>, Gina Kirschenheiter<\/strong>, Emily Simpson<\/strong> and Braunwyn Windham-Burke<\/strong>. The official cast for Season 15 has not yet been revealed, but Cohen had this to say when asked about the possibility of newcomers to the franchise.<\/p>\n

“The casting for next season is some of the best casting we’ve had,” he shared on Jeff Lewis Live<\/em>. “No matter how it shakes out, it’s going to be great because we have great casting. It’s hard to make moves when you don’t have a bench, both on the show and casting wise.”<\/p>\n

Gunvalson, 57, appeared on every season of RHOC since its inception in 2006. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
