Bravo cameras captured every moment of the Real Housewives of Orange County star Vicki Gunvalson’s engagement to her boyfriend, Steve Lodge, Breaking Celebrity News has exclusively learned.
“I said ‘YES,’” Vicki gushed when she showed off the stunning rock that Steve placed on her finger, but an insider snitched to Breaking Celebrity News that the event was hardly a surprise.
As Breaking Celebrity News previously reported, the proposal was planned after she assured network execs that she would get hitched for a new storyline on the Bravo hit show.
Just a few years ago, Vicki's trainwreck romance with ex Brooks Ayers exploded on camera when the cast infamously accused him of faking cancer.
