'RHOC's Vicki Gunvalson Dating After Brooks Ayers Breakup - New Boyfriend or No One Special?

After a pretty tumultuous year on The Real Housewives of Orange County, it seems that Vicki Gunvalson is ready to put a little happiness back into her life. Following the death of her mother, her breakup from Brooks Ayers, and a very rocky season 10 with her fellow co-stars, it seemed like the star was in a very unhappy place in her life. However, it looks like she is finally starting to feel some happiness again. It is being reported that the OG of the OC is getting back on the dating market and may be getting close to someone that fans of the series would recognize.

According to Radar Online, while Gunvalson and Ayers called off their 4-year relationship over the summer, the RHOC is reportedly dipping her toes into the dating pool again. While she might be putting herself back on the market, it doesn't seem that she is looking for anything serious at the moment.

"Vicki is dating again but she is not exclusive to anyone at the moment," an insider explained to the site. "She is dating a few people and is very happy right now."

It seems that the person that Gunvalson has been spending time with is a person that viewers of the Bravo series would know from past seasons, according to Ok Magazine.

"It's someone that fans would recognize," an insider explained, adding that it is also "someone that Brooks knows too."

Yet, Starpulse is reporting that while things might seem promising for the actress and her new prospect, it doesn't seem like Gunvalson is looking to jump into anything right away, but rather is just testing the waters.

"She is not ready to jump into a full-blown relationship just yet," the source explained. "Right now, Vicki is just focusing on her work and her family."
