The Real Housewives of Orange County new season exploded on the small screen tonight on Bravo! Season five kicked off with lots of OC drama!

Tensions were high between Gretchen and Tamra, carryover from last season.  Tamra told the table Gretchen always plays the victim and prays on old men, and she said she could no longer believe a word out of her mouth. Gretchen Rossi had some topless pics published online by TheDirty.com earlier this year that were pretty racy.

• Gretchen is still mourning over the loss of Jeff. She said she thinks about him everyday and misses him terribly. She admits she made some bad choices in her life but is trying to turn things around. She has currently been seen around with Slade, who used to date housewives Jo and Laurie.
• Jeana’s income has taken a big hit due to a poor real estate market, and she is having to downsize her lifestyle.
• Tamra and Simon have been fighting a lot. Their relationship is going over a lot of speed bumps right now, many of which seem to have to do with money.
• Lynne’s jewelry business is doing really well. Her pieces are being sold in a lot of high-end boutiques and department stores, and she even has buyers over seas.
• Lynne and Tamra are great friends now.
• Jeana and Vicki are not great friends now. Vicki says the reason they aren’t speaking is because Vicki wouldn’t loan Jeana money and stopped calling after she said no, even though they live two doors from one another. Jeana says that Vicki and her don’t speak anymore because, even though she knew Jeana was having a hard time with her business, Vicki still switched to another real estate agent.

Next week, viewers meet the new cast member and drama between Tamra and Gretchen continues!
