Jeana Keough Leaves 'The Real Housewives of Orange County'
Alluding to some of her castmates as "mean girls" during last night's episode, Jeana Keough of Bravo's 'The Real Housewives of Orange County' officially left the show."I am through with the housewives and all their drama," she said.
Now in its fifth season, the show based around the lives of wealthy women in Orange-County, Calif., was Bravo's first edition of the 'Housewives' franchise. Keough, a real estate agent and former Playboy playmate, was part of the cast from the first season.
"I'm over you," said Keough of the rest of the housewives, when co-star Tamra Barney visited her house. "I think Tamra must like being the mean girl," she added, referring to Barney's refusal to apologize to co-star Gretchen Rossi for derogatory remarks and accusations in previous episodes.
Yet in Barney's solo aside to the camera, she was just as blunt:

Yet in Barney's solo aside to the camera, she was just as blunt:
"Jeana's definitely the girl who would fart in the room and then walk away and say 'Who did that?' ... B****!'"
In the same episode, Keough's next door neighbor, fellow housewife Vicki Gunvalson, also had some choice words for Keough.
"She became toxic in my life," said Gunvalson. "A lot of things that she did were wrong and hurtful, so I'm done."
Following the episode's premiere, Keough appeared alongside Gunvalson on 'Watch What Happens: Live,' a weekly show hosted by Andy Cohen, Bravo senior VP of original programming and development. Despite the allegations of being "done" on both ends, as is often the case with 'Housewives' spats, no matter the locale, the two appeared bubbly and happy together.
"We apologized, we moved on," said Gunvalson.
"We're like sisters, we fight ... we get along," said Keough.
When Cohen asked Keough why she left the show, she cited wanting to spend time with her children and "date off-camera" as key reasons. Keough's exit comes shortly after housewife Alexis Bellino joined the cast.
"It's been a long journey," added Keough, during the episode. "I haven't any regrets but I'm glad that that phase of my life is over, for now."
