Whooping it up for old times’ sake! A number of the cast members from The Real Housewives of Orange County season 1 went out to dinner on Sunday, March 20, to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Bravo series’ premiere episode.
Vicki Gunvalson, the only cast member who has appeared on all 10 seasons of the original Real Housewives series, posted pics to Instagram on Sunday of herself enjoying a meal and drinks at Mastro’s Steakhouse with Jo De La Rosa, Jeana Keough and Tammy Knickerbocker. Gunvalson, De La Rosa and Keough all appeared on the first season — which debuted on March 21, 2006 — while Knickerbocker joined the fray in season 2.
“So good meeting up with @justjodelarosa and after 10 years since filming Season 1, it’s like no time has passed at all!” Gunvalson captioned one of the shots.
De La Rosa posted one of the images to her own Instagram page and wrote in the caption that the group was also feting Gunvalson’s “soon to be birthday.” The insurance industry maven turns 54 on Sunday, March 27.
De La Rosa was a main cast member for the first two seasons, while Keough’s run as a part of the core cast ended after the fifth season. Lauri Peterson and Kimberly Bryant, who also appeared on the first season, are not in the pics from Sunday.
Gunvalson tagged Gretchen Rossi — a cast member in seasons 4 through 8 — in one of the captions, although Rossi did not pose for any of the photos, either.
A source confirmed to Us Weekly earlier this month that Kelly Meza-Dodd is joining the cast for season 11. A premiere date for the new batch of episodes has not yet been announced.
