‘RHOC’ Season 9 Cast Gossip News: Pregnant Lydia McLaughlin Quits; Lizzie Rovsek Likes Vikki Gunvalson’s Boyfriend

News that pregnant Real Housewives of Orange County Lydia McLaughlin is leaving the show isn't just idle gossip. Lydia quit after only one season with the series, because she didn't want the fame to corrupt her. Latest cast addition Lizzie Rovsek admitted in a recent interview that she got along great with Tamara Barney, but who she really likes is Vikki Gunvalson's boyfriend Brooks.

Former Orange County Housewife Lydia McLaughlin has announced through her official reps that she is, in fact, preggers again for the third time (Us Weekly):

"Lydia is hoping for a girl!...Both Lydia and Doug are so excited to be adding to their beautiful family."

Lydia told Dolce Mag that her reasons for leaving the show had nothing to do with this pregnancy (via Wet Paint):

"I spoke to the producers and told them I'm not a typical housewife; I'm not dramatic.

"But they said that they liked that, and they wanted me to just be me. So I took it as a chance to be a different voice--a role model, maybe."

"I really did do the show because I wanted to be a positive influence, but if I'd returned for another season, it would have been because I like the red carpets, the fame, the glamour--and those aren't the reasons why I did it in the first place."

Super-rich addition to the Orange County cast Lizzie Rovsek told Wet Paint in a recent interview that she got along great with Tamera Barney, but Liz really likes southern charmer Brooks, who is in an on-again off-again relationship with Vikki Gunvalson:

"In the beginning, Tamra and I really hit it off, and I had a lot of fun with her.

"I didn't know if she would like me, since she's been the one fighting on the show a lot.

"We actually hit it off and had a lot of fun together."

"I like Brooks... I'm from Kentucky, and when I hear a Southern accent it's a little comforting.

"From what we've seen, he seems to be a very nice, laidback guy."

Uh Oh...Sounds like Vikki's going to need to keep one eye and Lizzie and the other on Brooks.
