Vicki Gunvalson, the OG star of The Real Housewives of Orange County, has handled her recent viral “hot mic” moment with Nick Viall’s podcast like a pro. After accidentally forgetting to hang up the call, leading to an embarrassing recording that fans are still buzzing about, Vicki has remained unbothered. She told TMZ that she was fine with Nick’s team sharing the clip, admitting she didn’t recall exactly what was said and thought she had already ended the call. Despite the mishap, she played it cool and gave her blessing for the viral moment to be used publicly.
However, Vicki had one condition: she requested Nick appear on her own podcast, My Friend, My Soulmate, My Podcast. She sent a message to Nick’s team on Wednesday, inviting him to join her show in return for allowing the clip to be shared. Vicki also couldn’t resist throwing a little shade, admitting she still doesn’t know who Nick is and hinting that he might think he’s more important than he really is.
In explaining the blunder, Vicki said her hectic schedule, which included a lunch in Mexico with her boyfriend and managing various tasks, led to the mistake. Her assistant pushed her to still record the podcast, but she was juggling too many things at once.
Now, all eyes are on Nick to see if he’ll accept the invitation and join Vicki on her podcast. Fans are eagerly awaiting whether their next conversation will be as entertaining as the one that sparked all this buzz.
