The show must go on. The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 15 may be on hold due to the coronavirus outbreak, but where there’s a will, there’s a way. RHOC stars Emily Simpson, Shannon Beador, Kelly Dodd and Braunwyn Windham-Burke reunited on Sunday, May 3, at Shannon’s home for filming without a production crew.

Shannon shared a selfie she took with Braunwyn and Emily.

RHOC co-star Gina Kirshenheiter didn’t attend the mini-reunion. She is self-isolating with her boyfriend, Travis Mullen, and their blended family.

Shannon Sets Chairs Up Six-Feet Apart for RHOC Co-Stars, Jokes She’s a ‘Rookie Camera Woman’

The RHOC star shared several photos and videos on her Instagram Stories of the May 3 gathering. In one photo, several chairs are visible on Shannon’s porch. A tape measure stretches between two chairs, indicating the ladies are following social distancing guidelines of keeping six feet apart. 

The photo includes the caption “@rookiecamerawoman” with a wink. Us Weekly reports that Shannon was “iPhone filming” the “social distance catchup” with her co-stars.

Braunwyn has said in the past that the coronavirus quarantine will be addressed on Season 15 of RHOC. 

Kelly Dodd Shares Boomerang of RHOC Stars By Shannon’s Pool

Shannon, Braunwyn and Kelly all shared a short Boomerang video of the four ladies lounging around Shannon’s pool. (Emily Simpson deleted her social media a few months ago.) 

The ladies are seated (or standing, in Shannon’s case) in different corners of the pool. All four of them are wearing masks. The Boomerang shared by Kelly is captioned, “Sunday funday with my faves!” 

She thanks her co-stars “so so so much!!!” for the gathering.

The Boomerang also quips “Real Housewives of Quarantine” along the bottom.

The Reunion Comes Days After Tamra Judge Confirms End of Friendship With Shannon

It’s a good thing Shannon is friendly with her Season 15 co-stars because her friendship with Tamra Judge is over. TV Shows Ace reports that Tamra admits to a fan that she “stopped trying” to call Shannon after her calls went straight to voicemail. 

Tamra thinks that Shannon was only friends with her during the show. According to Tamra, things changed in their friendship after Tamra left RHOC after Season 14.

Shannon has yet to address her friendship with Tamra. 

The Real Housewives of Orange County will return to Bravo sometime later this year. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, production on Season 15 is on hold. However, clearly Bravo has a back-up plan of having the ladies film themselves for footage to air later on the show. 

If you need your Real Housewives fix, RHOBH and RHONY are airing new seasons on Wednesdays and Thursdays, respectively.
