In Vice's new series, The Dark Side of Reality TV, Vicki Gunvalson, a former Real Housewives of Orange County star, opens up about her experience on the hit show. She likens signing onto the franchise to making 'a deal with the devil', revealing that she was paid 'nothing, zero' for her first season and only $5,000 for the second. However, her paycheck grew significantly over the years, with season 13 seeing her rake in a seven-figure salary. Despite the financial success, Gunvalson has had to endure tough life moments in front of the camera, including her divorce from Donn Gunvalson and finding out about her mother's death while filming. She criticizes Bravo for their handling of her mother's death, saying, 'I will never forgive Bravo for that'.
