The Real Housewives of Vancouver is back with a new and
improved second season. Even though we are really going to miss Reiko
and Christina, we all know when you become a “former Real Housewives of …”, you
will be referenced as a “Real Housewife” within the fans and media forever, so
Reiko and Christina, you both will always be part of The Real Housewives of
Vancouver family and we wish them the best of luck this year and many more to
come. The show opens with the gorgeous and beautiful Ronnie Negus.
Ronnie reflects how much her life has changed since first season and talks
about her daughter Remington’s near death experience. Due to this unfortunate
event Ronnie has stopped drinking and she is now 4 months sober. Side note: Ronnie
was never an alcoholic, just making that clear. How many times have we all had
a few glasses of wine? Unfortunately for her, she is on a reality show and
editing can make a situation look more dramatic than it really is, just saying.
Ronnie tells her sons she wants to throw a barbeque to honor
and thank everyone who was involved on Remy’s recovery such as paramedics, hospital
staff, family and close friends. Next we have the fur fabulous Jody Claman. Mia
shows up and Jody tells Mia how is her nose feeling since Mia had a nose job as
we all found out during the Season One RHOV Reunion. Mia states she is happy
and she loves her new look. Jody tells Mia she didn’t really need a nose job since
Mia looked beautiful before, in which I agree with Jody however Mia looks great
either way in my opinion. Mia tells Jody if she could meet her friend Amanda Hansen
to give her business advice since Amanda is starting up her own tea line, Jody
accepts since Amanda is a single mother and a friend of Mia.
Ronnie and Mary meet at a local coffee shop to discuss their
issues and Ronnie wants Mary to attend Remy’s BBQ event. Mary is a bit hesitant
since Jody will also be attending also but Mary decides to go to support both Remy
and Ronnie. Then Ronnie and Mary decide to write a friendship contract which is
very ala Real Housewives of Atlanta’s Nene and Cynthia Season 4.
Mary goes to an art gallery since she wants to buy some art
for her house and meets with art consultant and one of the newest wives, Ioulia
Reynolds. Ioulia seems very knowledgeable in the art fields at the end of the
day Mary doesn’t buy any art and we find out that Ioulia has the need for
speed, does that means that she also lives life in the fast lane like Reiko?
Looks like it to me. Ioulia, the Russian beauty is the youngest housewife of
the whole Real Housewives franchise at the age of 26.
Ronnie takes Remy horse back riding and then we are
introduced to the second new wife, Robin Reichman. Robin offers her horse Giggy
for Remy to ride. Soon after Ronnie and Robin sit down and start chatting and as we
all already know Robin is originally from Texas
Next we are introduced to the third and final new wife,
Amanda Hansen. Amanda meets with Jody to discuss business tips and we learn
Amanda is working on a new tea line. Jody tells Amanda she will help her out
and we learn Amanda is an alcoholic and has been sober for 2 and half years.
Amanda is a single mother of 3 currently going thought a divorce and
has a boyfriend. By the look of her boyfriend’s picture, he looks hot.
Amanda devoted with fitness and as she states she wants to look starving, she
seems to have some one liners and I love her already. Jody invites Amanda to
Ronnie’s BBQ event.
All the ladies arrive
to Ronnie’s home and they are all introduced to one another. All the ladies
seem to be cordial and get along, I know this is only the first episode and as
we all know this might change by episode 3. Ronnie gives a beautiful speech and
thanks everyone for attending. Remy also says a speech and I have to say it was
one of the sweetest scenes in Real Housewives history, it made me teary and I’m
just glad to know Remy is well and alive. Remy tells her godmother Mary if she
could sing her a song and Mary sings her new single “Hero” to Remy and I must
say Mary is a fabulous singer, but then again I already knew that. That scene
was sweet as tea and I loved it. The funniest moment for me during this episode
is when Robin and Jody meet for the first time. Robin tells Jody she’s from Texas and Jody tells Robin that her best friend is from Texas Oklahoma Oklahoma
