The fourth season premiere of The Real Housewives of Orange County brought back Bravo's most fabulous ladies for another run, but with a new wife in tow: Gretchen. For the first episode, we get to see what the women are up to these days and how far they've gone in their lives. Also, we're introduced to this possible alien threat with blonde locks and diamond rings.
Maintaining that looks don't make a woman, Gretchen Rossi says she's far from the high maintenance lady she appears to be. She claims that she's pretty down-to-earth, except that she had the luck to snag herself a millionaire for a fiancé. She's already begun stirring up the atmosphere, trying to prove that she's not like the others. Probably because she's busy picking out $65,000, four carat diamond rings.

The ladies are back for tonight’s season premiere of The Real Housewives of Orange County on Bravo, airing at 10pm. Once again, they prove that nothing is better than the original cast, as four of them return for another installment. However, the show introduces a new housewife to the classic territory.
For this season, Tamra Barney, Vicki Gunvalson, Jeana Keough and Lauri Peterson are joined by 30-year-old Gretchen Rossi. Though she appears to be an intimidating force with her dazzling looks, the rest of the ladies maintain their poise and balanced lifestyle. Other, even greater, challenges need to be confronted and the housewives keep on juggling their way to success.

Jo De La Rosa found love in Slade Smiley, who served as her entrance into the Coto lifestyle as featured on the reality TV series The Real Housewives of Orange County. Despite having all of her financial needs taken care of, she still had trouble adjusting to the traditional housewife role so she left the gated community. Because of this, Smiley ended their romantic relationship. However, their split wasn't at all bitter as he now serves as her manager as she attempts to find love once again.
Date My Ex: Jo & Slade, Bravo's new dating competition series, follows De La Rosa as she leaves Orange County behind in search for love and adventure in Los Angeles, where she has moved to pursue a singing career. Since splitting with her ex, she has enjoyed her single life, which is quite different to her Real Housewives days with Smiley in Orange County. In fact, she has already recorded her debut single, "You Can't Control Me."

Jo De La Rosa left Bravo's The Real Housewives of Orange County in order to pursue her singing career in Los Angeles, but it seems she's been able to do lot more than churn out some original tunes.
Apparently, the aspiring singer, who was the youngest among the women during the first and second seasons of The Real Housewives of Orange County, also managed to land a bit part in a new web comedy series called Squeegees. The show, which premiered on February 28 on abc.com and YouTube, follows four window washers as they try to “make it in the rough and tumble world of high-rise window washing!” It stars Marc Gilbar as Gil, Brendan Countee as BC, Adam Countee as Adam and Aaron Greenberg as Ronny.
