Lynne Curtin

So far, the newest entry in the 'Real Housewives' franchise -- the D.C. version -- is proving to be less interesting on screen than off, but things are heating up on 'The Real Housewives of Orange County' before the show's sixth season even begins.

The Orange County Register reports that O.C. housewife Lynne Curtin will no longer be part of the cast when the show returns to Bravo early next year. Instead, she and her family have been replaced by Peggy Tanous and her husband Mitch, who are friends of current 'Housewives' star Alexis Bellino and her husband Jim.

Hey, they don't call it a reality show for nothing. Reality is hitting home on 'The Real Housewives of Orange County' (Thurs., 10PM ET on Bravo) when the Curtins get an eviction notice. Only problem? Lynne and Frank weren't there when the eviction was served. Raquel had to call and tell her mom they'd just been served.

Well, you know what, Lynne? Maybe you should have thought twice about that face lift. Maybe Frank is right, and you've been living beyond your means for a while now. Maybe it's time to get ... a reality check!

Watch the video after the jump.

On The Real Housewives of Orange County, Lynne Curtin faced concerns about her financial problems by going out and getting a face lift. That's right, she bought something that she probably couldn't pay for, but couldn't be repossessed. Well, now Real Housewive's Lynne Curtain is in financial trouble with the law.

Lynne and Frank Curtin have a judgment against them involving $1.2 million and they didn't pay up. Because of that failure to pay, a Riverside County, California judge issued a bench warrant for the couple to appear in court and explain themselves. The court date was Monday, December 21. The Curtins never showed up.
