Vicki Gunvalson Sues Over Alleged Reputation Damage

The Real Housewives of Orange County's Vicki Gunvalson has filed a lawsuit against former financial adviser Gary Vyneman and his company. Court documents claim that Gary spoke poorly about Vicki to mutual client Diane Field, leading to damage to Vicki's reputation and significant financial losses.

According to the suit, Vicki provided sound financial advice to Diane, recommending consideration of annuity investments. However, it's alleged that Vicki's business partner persuaded Diane to adopt a different investment strategy, resulting in substantial annual expenses.

Vicki accuses Gary of making baseless and damaging claims about her professional abilities. She maintains that she acted appropriately in providing financial guidance to Diane.

The lawsuit comes as Season 20 of RHOC has just begun, sparking interest among viewers. The show airs Thursdays at 8/7c on Bravo, with Peacock streaming new episodes the following day.
