A few months ago, I blogged about Gretchen Rossi‘s upcoming appearance at something called the “Women’s Empowerment Expo.” A few other Bravo-lebrties were supposed to show up including Patti Stanger of Millionaire Matchmaker and Padma Lakshmi of Top Chef, but according to people who attended the expo, no one showed up to the show and the only one who didn’t flake was our Gretchen, who gave out details of her makeup line, set to launch in 2010.

kel, That fat gay guy was never Gretchen’s boyfriend, lol. That is funny!!!!
They showed Jeff buying the huge rock for Gretchen and calling it an engagement ring. We saw her take care of a dying man, his kids supported her publicly even after he died as did Jeana.
Gretchen was nothing but kind and sweet to people. Tamra got drunk in front of her kids and treated them like crap and acted like a whore. Vicki did the same thing except she hit on her friends husband on top of treating her family like crap.
Gretchen was always kind to people, and definitely took the high road at the reunion taping and afterwards. Her blog definitely blew their lies out of the water for sure, she connected all the dots and made sense.
And yes she is rich and isn’t stupid with money, it’s pretty evident at this point.
@kate “Where is your proof that she sold homes to family & friends?”
Where is your proof to back up ANY of your ‘facts’
@talla “She is also the only housewife who didn’t “pretend” to be rich when they were just faking like the Barneys and Curtins.”
Are you kidding????? No, she just pretended to be engaged to a man who was dying. Professing her love, wiping the tears, playing the victim while the camera’s were rolling, then climbing in bed with her boyfriend at night. To take it a step further she lies, (and continues to lie) when her cover is blown. Gretchen cares about no one but Gretchen.
Yeah, she has a lot to be proud of.
Jay, Have you paid Gretchen back the 18,000 you owe her?
Sister Sledge, Where is your proof that she sold homes to family & friends? I too read that she won an award from some realtor association, it’s all the same info. in articles about her.
I do find it ironic that Gretchen (who is the most polite and classy housewife) gets slammed and the really mean, hateful housewives like Vicki & Tamra never get ripped from maria.
Just because Gretchen had the misfortune to have a psychotic man stalking her and who continues to post lies and trash about her does not mean that any of it is true. Her blog cleared up a lot of the lies that tamra & jay were spreading.
But the blog was about Gretchen going to south of france and when someone asked Maria about the taping of OC housewives her response was a slam against gretchen about being on a toilet (that was MONTHS ago???).
This is supposed to be about the PRESENT people!
@Talia – What awards did Gretchen win? How many homes has she SOLD? How many of those sales did NOT involve family members and bed partners?
Why is it every time someone talks about Gretchen negitively, you bring up Tamara and her family? We all know Tamara and that situation. We are trying to comment on Gretchen. We do not have to read blah blah blah about Tamara.
So Gretchen has paid her parents back the 100k plus down pmt foe her house? Before or after the INS money?
Oh here we go with Mr. Multiple poster, LOL! Gretchen actually won awards when she was a realtor, I would imagine you would have to be selling homes for that, LOL!
She was financially independent before she met Jeff (her house was in HER name, that can’t be said for any other housewife except vicki). She is also the only housewife who didn’t “pretend” to be rich when they were just faking like the Barneys and Curtins.
There is no reason why she wouldn’t be able to look in the mirror and be proud of who she is, she has done nothing wrong.
Being a drunk, lousy mother who drove her family into homelessness….now THAT is bad my friend. Let’s not forget her sick attempts to take advantage of Gretchen with her creepy date raping son, which didn’t work but frankly Tamra has absolutely NO soul.
Treating your kids and husband like crap and hitting on married men, THAT is pretty bad (vicki).
Gretchen is a saint compared to some of the other housewives frankly.
I think the fact that Gretchen is the hottest housewife on top of being the richest just makes certain types of people green with envy (including Maria maybe too).
The Maria snark remarks are even old ones that have been said before, boring!
There are some of us who do think Gretchen sold her soul for the $$$ and fame. If she did for slimey, Lord have mercy on her either way. That is who she will have to account to in the end.
@heather “And kel/jay, get over your obsessive jealousy with her, that is just old too.”
A little defensive are we? Again, I AM NOT JAY.I am not getting over anything, if you don’t like it, move on. It’s that simple.
“I know you guys are jealous over her wealth and looks but at least she isn’t an attention whore like Jay & Tamra”
Jealous? Hardly. I would rather be a penniless, “lonely spinster” nobody my whole life than someone who has to look in the mirror everyday knowing everything I have was do to greed and deceit!
Enjoy your day!
LMAO. Maria is an equal opportunity snarkler.lol. Gretchen will be fine and she is doing well, so she can take it. They all can. I happen to like Gretchy poo, but she can get it.lol. Have a nice weekend everyone.
Everyone talks about Gretchens work ethic and how she can manage her money. If I was given 2.5mil I would know how to manage my money also. And what work ethic are you talking about? Has she every put in a 40 hr week like the rest of us? I dont think I ever saw her sell a house on the program. She never even talked about working. The only one I saw working was Vicki and her daughter and Kara. Cant think of anyone else.
Maria, Um Gretchen hasn’t “done” anything for you to snark on in a long time. The paps follow her everywhere but she isn’t losing her house due to pure greed or dating someone’s husband.
She is dating a guy. And frankly you just keep repeated really old snarky comments, it’s just old. You NEVER continually post comments on Kim. Z or Tamra.
And kel/jay, get over your obsessive jealousy with her, that is just old too.
I know you guys are jealous over her wealth and looks but at least she isn’t an attention whore like Jay & Tamra (they can only get attention by mentioning Gretchen).
You both sound like lonely, bitter spinsters.
@heather, Talk about sounding bitter. Not everyone shares your opinion. There’s lot to be said about Gretchen, call it slamming, snarking, whatever. She is a loser, and that’s my opinion.
I have yet to see you snark on Kim Z. or Tamra, the biggest loser housewives for sure. You snark on Gretchen every chance you get, it’s just old at this point. You buddies with psycho Jay now?
Maria, You sound bitter. I just asked if the OC Housewives were still filming. Why do you slam her constantly when the other housewives have done MUCH worse. Are you jealous or something?
Is OC Housewives still filming? Don’t they usually stop filming around labor day? I hope they are filming in south of france with gretchen, that would be interesting.
Since she is a spokesperson I would guess that she and Slade are paid for first class all the way in the south of france, I am jealous!
But she seems smart with money, I remember her talking about businesses and investments…the girl has her act together in that dept. You don’t see her blowing her money on stupid stuff like the other housewives (which probably explains why she is the only one who isn’t broke, lol).
She seems to always be working and making money which is rare out of all of those women. Maybe if the others had her work ethic they may not be losing their homes?
I hope they post pics of she and Slade in the south of france.
I was going to say the same thing Maria, that picture was updated 8/19. Gretchen does look great in a bikini, I’ll give her that.
So she’s in the South of France in her quest for everlasting beauty, eh? Did she pay Slade’s freight for that outing too? Sorry, I don’t relate to a lifestyle where a person can wander the world on a windfall inheritance and not live in the real world like the rest of us. I look forward to watching Gretchen for laughs though.
Gretchen was in People magazine again, this is a good pic of her. It would be perfect if Slade were in it, I wouldn’t mind seeing his six pack : ). I read they are in the South of France this week, must be nice.
