'The Real Housewives of Orange County' saw Vicki Gunvalson, her daughter Briana and her two grandchildren taking a long drive from Oklahoma to her home in Southern California.
And the reason they were driving was because Briana and her two kids are shifting to Vicki's place. Ryan's (Briana's husband) posting in Oklahoma is coming to an end and he has to be there to finish out his assignment. Otherwise, he would have also joined his family.
For Vicki, it was a nice long drive with family but what took viewers by surprise was the fact that Briana was in the driving seat, despite not being well. And therefore, they criticized Vicki for letting her drive. One viewer even asked her why she did that.
In response, Vicki said that Briana gets serious car sickness if she is in the passenger seat. She also explained that the episode did show her daughter driving but it was not that she was manning the wheels the entire journey. Both took turns to drive and the daughter got sufficient rest.
It may be mentioned here that Briana has not been keeping well for some time. She has still not recovered from the leg infection, she caught after a recent surgery. And this is the main reason Vicki wants her to be in South California. Here, she can get the best medical aid and treatment.
In 2012, Briana had gone through her first surgery to remove enlarged lymph nodes. Three years later, she had to repeat the operation for the nodes were still not completely removed. At this time, Vicki was apprehensive that it might be cancer but it was not.
Well, the housewife is quite a concerned mother. She has thanked her supporters for asking about Briana and also requested them to keep her in their prayers and thoughts. And now that her family is coming to stay with her, she is looking forward to having a great time with her daughter and two little grandchildren.
