Dorinda Medley likes to “safe it nice” — and her capabilities “very certain.”
In an uncommon interview with Page Six, Medley shares her aspect of a heated spat with fellow “Loyal Housewives” alum Vicki Gunvalson over the COVID-19 vaccine that became caught on digicam for Season 2 of Peacock’s “Loyal Housewives Final Girls Day out” spinoff.

Referencing the legendary “She’s startin’” meme for which she is famous, the “Create It Nice” creator quips, “[I] became startin’ — and goin’!”
Jokes apart, Medley feels the coronavirus has been “weirdly politicized” and let Gunvalson, 59, know that science — now not any safe together affiliation — drove her to safe the jab.
“There became nothing emotional about it. There became no red or blue,” the pale “Loyal Housewives of Current York Metropolis” enormous title explains, adding that her “Orange County” counterpart regarded as if it would maybe maybe maybe safe “fleeting” generalizations about the vaccine that couldn’t be factually supported.
“That became one among the issues and one among the things we discussed,” Medley says, recounting her difference with Gunvalson. “You might maybe maybe’t be flip about it. … [I had to] trusty leap and assert in science — now not the total noise.”
An insider instantaneous Page Six in September 2021 that Gunvalson had instantaneous Medley that “everyone who purchased the vaccine is going to die” when filming “RHUGT” at Medley’s Bluestone Manor in the Berkshires.
“To interpret, my dialog with Dorinda became particularly just a few person I know who didn’t hold a history of blood clots and sadly passed a long way flung from a pulmonary embolism, which came about to occur after he took the 2d dose of the vaccine,” Gunvalson instantaneous us on the time, revealing the upsetting instance she frail in her argument.

Level-headed, the Coto Insurance founder expressed her perception that the vaccine is “political” despite Medley’s logic.
“I instantaneous [Dorinda] it’s political and she didn’t agree, and if it’s now not political then why is the authorities mandating it?” she elaborated in her chat with us. “So, it’s possible you’ll maybe salvage a way to assert what you wanna assert, nonetheless the facts are the facts. So, she has her opinions and I appreciate it. I trusty didn’t mediate she respected my realizing.”
On the contrary, Medley says she became merely disillusioned by the diploma of “misinformation” she felt Gunvalson became expatiating.
“I hated at some stage in that total duration the misinformation, the foolish chatter [I was hearing],” notes the SiriusXM Radio Andy host. “[And] these upsetting statements of us made.”
“Loyal Housewives Final Girls Day out” Season 2 — which has yet to accept a premiere date — also stars franchise alums Jill Zarin of “Current York Metropolis”, Tamra Think of “Orange County”, Phaedra Parks and Eva Marcille of “Atlanta” and Taylor Armstrong and Brandi Glanville of “Beverly Hills.”
Medley tells Page Six she purchased in the “simplest form” sooner than manufacturing with the attend of Nutrisystem, a food draw idea she has followed for 2 years after gaining “a chunk of weight” at some stage in the early stages of the pandemic lockdown.
“I’ve lost about 19 kilos since I’ve began, and I’ve been in a position to preserve it off. The program has tall meal alternate suggestions, nonetheless it in actual fact’s taught me loads about fragment preserve an eye on, too,” she enthuses.
“I’ll mute skedaddle safe lunch with a girl friend love Luann [de Lesseps], nonetheless now I understand the fragment preserve an eye on a part of it, how worthy to in actual fact exhaust off my plate,” Medley continues. “And I’ve never felt better. I in actual fact feel my healthiest nonetheless also my most confident.”
