Vicki Gunvalson Bashes Meghan Edmonds In Bitter Catfight: 'You're A Pain In The A**'

Meghan Edmonds' evil actions came back to bite her on episode nine of the Real Housewives of Orange County, after she attacked both Vicki Gunvalson and Kelly Dodd in a series of backstabbing situations.
The drama began when Dodd told Edmonds about her upcoming meeting with Shannon Beador, claiming that she caught her "recording my conversation," and wanted to confront her "in person."
"Meghan went and called Shannon," Dodd told her mother, who instantly accused Edmonds of "stirring the pot."
During a call, Beador, 53, adamantly denied having recorded Dodd. The 43-year-old ultimately believed her, saying: "That is what I thought I saw but if you're promising me then I'll believe you."
Dodd spoke to Edmonds, 32, next, who apologized for calling Beador. "I didn't want you to sit on it. Sorry I should have let you handle it," and admitted: "Yeah, you're right. I shouldn't have said anything. I couldn't help myself."
Trying to defend herself, Edmonds claimed "I told Shannon because I don't want Kelly's crazy thought to ruin the relationship they just built," but it was too late.
"That just goes to show me now I can't trust her," Dodd said, while Edmonds cooed to her daughter: "She's mad at me, but guess what? I don't really care because I have you."
Peggy Sulahian made two brief appearances on the show, and never with the other women. The first was during a trip to New York, where she went to check out a college with her daughter. Her husband warned her not to shop, while she pointed out the fact that they had a $300,000, a $400,000 and a $750,000 car sitting in their garage.
"Diko is such a hypocrite. He spends millions of dollars," she said about her husband.
The screen then flashed to her on an intimate dinner with her husband, where she insisted that their daughter should have the opportunity to go away for school.
"I want her to have the confidence that she's able to do it," Sulahian, 44, said.
Edmonds continued her Mean Girls impersonation, as she shared a lunch with Gunvalson, 55, yet slammed her the whole way through.
"I want to meet with Vicki because I want to try and understand where she's coming from with Tamra and Shannon," she said. As they discussed the fight between the three women, it was clear Edmonds was not on Gunvalson's side.
"Meghan, I am a victim. They've hurt me," she told her RHOC co-star. "This constant accusing me of being involved in some scam. I wasn't involved in the scam Brooks Ayers faking cancer that was. I never benefited, I'm the one who got hurt."
Edmonds refused to accept Gunvalson's explanation. "You might not have benefited, but you got the sympathy and attention you craved," she quipped.
Gunvalson continued to defend herself: "It took me a year to get really good and then I met Steve. I've gone through like a death. I had to get my whole mindset."
Edmonds then brought up Gunvalson's attack on Tamra Judge. "You perpetuated a rumor that Eddie's gay," she noted.
"I told Kelly privately, have you heard the rumor that Eddie's gay? She said yes. I never meant it to come back to Tamra, nor did I mean it to hurt her," Gunvalson explained.
Then Edmonds moved on to Beador. "What's the deal with you and Shannon? You said that her husband beat her."
Gunvalson admitted that was the wrong move. "I probably shouldn't have said that to Kelly," but Edmonds continued to berate her.
"You don't perpetuate a rumor" and Gunvalson reiterated that she had "all the text messages and pictures. Do I ever want to reveal it? No!"
Edmonds encouraged her to "show them," but Gunvalson said no. "I don't want to do that, why would I want to hurt her?" Replied Edmonds: "I think that you've already done that really well."
A livid Gunvalson tried to defend her actions: "It wasn't gossip, and I talked to Shannon about getting help." Asked Edmonds, "Weren't you afraid for her well-being? Why didn't you call the police?" Replied Gunvalson, "Because it wasn't my place."
Edmonds continued to rip on Gunvalson, saying: "I still think it is pretty sh***y that you would share that with Kelly. It is clearly in Shannon's life." With that, Gunvalson got a clue that Edmonds was setting her up.
"I've shared more with you, now what, I'm in trouble again? I am because now you're going to say something. I don't want you to say anything."
"The girl's a trouble maker," Gunvalson said about Edmonds. "The girl's a pain in the a**."
