I put, like, my real work on hold to be filming, and so, I missed that on both paychecks.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Ahead of the three-day fan convention, Katie made waves when she claimed to have only been paid $20,000 for the latest episodes, which allegedly wasn\u2019t enough to cover travel expenses for the show. The Bravolebrity also took a step back from the show due to her fractured friendships with the other Housewives.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cI\u2019m so grateful. I feel I was very hurt,\u201d Katie recalled on Saturday. \u201cI still am, by a lot of things, and I feel like I\u2019ve owned and apologized for things I needed to and I\u2019m just waiting on that back. I don\u2019t think I will fully trust some of the people I trusted before ever again.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Despite tension with her fellow <i>RHOC <\/i>stars, Katie recently started <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/entertainment\/news\/rhocs-katie-ginella-defends-really-nice-friendship-with-tamra-judge\/\">working toward reconciliation<\/a> with <strong>Tamra Judge<\/strong> in particular.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cTamra reached out to me the day after I was, kind of, paused [on] filming to check in on me and brought me back into film that one scene, which was really nice,\u201d Katie told <i>Us <\/i>of Tamra, 58. \u201cShe was like, \u2018You deserve to be here. We have to tell your story. You have to get it out.\u2019 We\u2019ve talked a lot since we\u2019ve hung out and, I mean, it\u2019s been an organic kind of growth of a friendship, and I\u2019m very thankful for it.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption \">\n<div class=\"ratio-based-placeholder\" style=\"padding-bottom:138.3%;\"><\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"credit\">Rich Polk\/Bravo<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"p1\">Katie, however, doesn\u2019t know whether she will be asked back for the upcoming season 20.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cWhen I was on <i>Watch What Happens<\/i>, [<strong>Andy Cohen<\/strong> and I] talked a little because he knew what was coming,\u201d Katie said, referring to the 57-year-old <i>WWHL <\/i>host and Housewives producer. \u201cHe said really kind things to me, I don\u2019t know [if I\u2019ll be back].\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">If Katie does get a season 20 offer, she is fairly certain that she\u2019d accept.<\/p>\n<div id=\"news-block\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-form  \">\n<div class=\"newsletter-signup__success\" aria-live=\"polite\">\n<h3>Thank You!<\/h3>\n<p>You have successfully subscribed.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cI think so. I mean, if I have <strong>Vicki [Gunvalson]<\/strong> and Tamra and we have organic friendships, I think it\u2019d be great,\u201d Katie acknowledged, referring to Vicki\u2019s <i>RHOC <\/i>return to the series after five years. \u201cVicki <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/entertainment\/news\/rhocs-vicki-gunvalson-thought-she-was-put-out-to-pasture-before-return\/\">just got her orange back<\/a>, which is so cool.

So, you never know [what could happen].\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">According to Katie, most of her onscreen feuds were the result of \u201cvery petty, weird drama.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201c[That] isn\u2019t that what we want on <i>Housewives,<\/i>\u201d she stated, adding she has no regrets following the tell-all reunion. \u201cI went into the reunion just telling myself, \u2018Katie, say everything you need to say,\u2019 because I got cut off kind of halfway through [the season], and I had nothing to lose. I just, kind of, just said what I needed to say.\u00a0 \u2026I feel good about what I said and how I acted and what I did, and that\u2019s kind of all that matters to me.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.usmagazine.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Katie Ginella is clarifying her comments about her supposedly meager Real Housewives of Orange County paycheck \u2014 and revealing details about how much she actually earned for season 19. \u201cWe get paid for the episodes we\u2019re on,\u201d Katie, 41, exclusively told Us Weekly on Saturday, November 15, while attending BravoCon 2025 in Las Vegas, claiming [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2160501,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"jnews-multi-image_gallery":[],"jnews_single_post":[],"jnews_primary_category":[],"jnews_social_meta":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[25177],"tags":[384080,21741,24386,25404],"class_list":["post-2160500","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-celebrities","tag-bravocon","tag-entertainment","tag-entertainment-news","tag-exclusive"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/RHOCs-Katie-Ginella-Says-She-Didnt-Get-Paid-for-Half.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2160500","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2160500"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2160500\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2160502,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2160500\/revisions\/2160502"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2160501"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2160500"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2160500"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebrity.land\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2160500"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
