This news was SO crazy when it first came out that I almost didn’t believe it. But, it’s been confirmed, Gretchen Rossi really is dating Jo de la Rosa’s ex, Slade Smiley. The couple talked about their relationship recently with TV Guide.
Slade said,
“Gretchen and I have
been friends for eight years. Let’s just say we’ve become a little more than
friends.”
Gretchen adds,
“All of a sudden, we started hanging out and said, ‘There might be
something here,’” Rossi says. “It’s been kind of
fun.” Smiley adds, “And I was saying, ‘Why
didn’t I date you before!’ I think it’s an amazing
combination.”
As for the reuion show, Gretchen and Slade didn’t even watch it because they said the accusations were too over the top for them to handle.
Rossi seemed in great spirits, considering the drubbing she took at the
reunion show courtesy of some of her co-stars-particularly from Tamra
Barney, who accused Rossi of not really loving Cancer-ridden Jeff
Beitzel, but rather being his paid caretaker. She was also accused of dating
another man while she was engaged. “I’ve never seen the reunion
show,” says Rossi. “I didn’t watch it.” Adds Smiley,
“I know what Gretchen went through, but we haven’t watched it
because it was just ridiculous. It was something that happened that should
never have been allowed to happen. It was out of control.”
What total drama!!!!! No wonder reality TV shows are so popular…there’s no way writers could even come up with this stuff if they tried!

Isn’t she way older than him? Go Cougar!
WHY is everyone mad at Gretchen for doing her!…Tamra was beyond JEALOUS of her…so WHAT, if Jeff (RIP) paid her to take care of him…OBVIOUSLY he wasn’t complaining when he was UPgrading her ring!…ANNND, whats so wrong with Slade?! (xcept his name..eww) seems like he would make a good boyfriend!… Live and let live people!!!
Ho Hum..why is this still a topic? I couldn’t give two shits who they date? Just shows that Gretchen was a popular one on the OC Housewives. I’m not seeing any pics of Trampra the Vampire..

Is Gretchen engaged or married or something???
Visit my fashion blog!
She was engaged to an old guy…he died of cancer.
Who are these people??? Never heard of them.
Me neither.
i was going to say the same thing.
Is this for the next season of Real Housewives of Orange County? Slade is super creepy.
Think of it as the menopausal version of The Hills.
LOL!
lol!!!! nice one! so true lol…
I smell spin-off show! The Real Douche Bags of Orange County.
Damn I am ashamed to admit how much I loved this last season. Gretchen takes ‘gold digger’ to a whole ‘nother level. And Slade, c’mon…what a piece of work. A match made in the pit of hell.
haha I was coming to say OMG reality tv has gone to the dogs because I never know half of the people you cover here anymore. What the hell happened to gossip about REAL STARS???? Oh riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight they actually have a life and stay out of the headlines unlike these sorry excuses for “entertainers”. Man life is getting pathetic when this is what people look up too now.
Who?
Who are these people?
Ugh! I can’t believe she would date him! He’s not attractive & she’s beautiful!
Also, why do people comment on a blog about celebrities when they don’t have any idea who they are? Just move on to the next one.
