Congratulations to the #JusticeForHeatherDubrow gang (including me, as head organizer.) In part two of the Real Housewives of Orange County Season 17 reunion, the cast finally shows some contrition for their poorly executed takedown of Fancy Pants. And by contrition, I mean they all give the classic Housewives apology where they blame everything on their drinking or trauma, followed by a “I really do love you!” Shannon, of course, would rather cry all of her foundation off than apologize to Heather for projecting all of her romantic problems onto her.
But before we dig into the John Janssen of it all, we pick up the middle of Gina and Shannon’s shouting match in part one. Shannon finally offers Gina a curt apology for claiming Child Protective Services were going to scoop up her kids when she got her DUI. She says she just meant that CPS would take her children if she was taken into custody and they were left alone—not because of the DUI itself. I don’t know why this distinction matters, but this is apparently all Shannon could come up with since that episode aired.
