Last season left Vicki on the outs with the ladies, but with Brooks finally out of the picture; she tries to get her friendships back on track and helps her daughter Briana move back to Orange County. As Tamra gets ripped for a fitness competition, her son Ryan's relationship with baby mama Sarah is ripped apart. Heather's mega mansion is way behind schedule as she finds herself in single mom territory as Terry works more than ever. Shannon and David find their marriage rekindled and renewed but the stress of selling their house and moving into a new one threatens to throw her into a downward spiral. Step-mom Meghan is ready to take the leap to biological motherhood when she tries IVF to get pregnant, but is frustrated that her baseball husband, Jimmy Edmonds, might not be as hands-on as she would like.

Meet the new housewife:

Kelly Dodd

Fearless and confident Kelly Dodd has a mouth as big as her heart. Originally hailing from Arizona, her fiery Latin lineage and unfiltered opinions definitely bring the heat to the OC. With a penchant for gossip and drinking champagne, there is never a dull moment around her. After a rocky period in her marriage, she recently reconciled with her husband Michael, who cashed out of major tech toy company and is now home and always underfoot. Family is what's most important to this stay-at-home mom, who shares her 4-story oceanfront mansion with 9-year old daughter Jolie, her younger brother Eric and her mom Bobbi. Among the ladies, Kelly finds herself in hot water when she befriends outcast Vicki despite warnings from her bestie Meghan.

Don't miss "The Real Housewives of Orange County Uncensored" special airing Monday, June 13 at 9pm ET/PT featuring never-before-seen footage on the show's infamous eighth season. The cast and producers will give behind-the-scenes insight from Vicki's secret plastic surgery, the "threesome" fight atop the mountain at Whistler and why the cast doubts Gretchen's rooftop marriage proposal.

Season eleven of "The Real Housewives of Orange County" is produced by Evolution Media for Bravo, with Douglas Ross, Greg Stewart, Alex Baskin, Stephanie Boyriven and Adam Karpel along with Scott Dunlop, serving as Executive Producers. Andy Cohen also serves as Executive Producer.
