Yesterday’s The Real Housewives of O.C. ended on a sad note with classy, beautiful Lauri leaving the show. Bravo had hinted over and over that a “housewife” leaves the show on Tuesday’s episode. I had not read any spoilers. I like rumors and news but not always spoilers, so I kept thinking who could it be? The only housewife I could think of was Lauri. I thought because she was a newlywed that she wanted to spend more alone time with hubby. Then I started seeing previews of Lauri crying about her son Josh.
Lauri's son Josh, who has been in and out of past seasons, has been dealing with drug addiction. We had seen him get help before and all hoped he would recover soon. Unfortunately, according to Lauri’s testimonial last nigh, the road for Josh ahead is going to be very hard and long.
Lauri left the rest of the show, to be with her family, during this trying time. As much as I enjoyed Lauri and am sad to see her go, I can not blame her at all. I can not even imagine what it would be like having to discuss you son’s heroin addiction on television. I think her family needed this break from the public and sincerely hope only good things for her family. This is a link to Lauri’s Bravo Blog if you would like to read her thoughts on what happened.
With Lauri leaving, a new housewife Lynne Curtin, will be introduced next week. I don’t know much yet about her except from a brief Bravo bio. We will have to wait, till next week, to see how her on-air personality is. However, she has big shoes to fit stepping into Lauri’s spot. Hopefully, Lauri will come back soon if it's right for her family.
