"The reunion was a long day," she says. "Everyone had a lot of issues to talk out. For the most part, I think it was pretty mellow until the end and then things got out of hand."
Ahead of reunion day, the Season 9 newbie admits that she leaned on her fans for some words of wisdom on how to approach the special since it was her first-ever reunion taping.
"To prepare, I asked fans on Twitter if they had any advice they would want to share," she says. "I really didn't prepare much. I am not the type to study episodes and text messages for loopholes, etc. I just followed my heart, was true to myself and told the truth!"
And if Lizzie is being really honest, she actually wanted to wear something else that day. "However, I did work with Walter Collection on my reunion dress," she teases. "He designed it specially for me for the reunion, but unfortunately the decision was out my control and I didnít end up wearing it. That was a big bummer."
To see what Lizzie did end up wearing and why the cast got out of hand, check out Part 1 of The Real Housewives of Orange County Reunion, airing Monday, August 25.
