From Facebook 43 min. ago....
"After much prayer, thought, counseling, and consideration, we have decided to end our four year relationship. We both wish nothing but a great future for each other. We have come to realize that one can indeed love someone in their heart, but that the time may come for their lives to take separate paths. Though the remaining episodes of Season 10 of The Real Housewives of Orange County will show us as a couple, the filming took place in January 2015 through May 2015. There will be no further statements or interviews regarding our relationship as we choose to move on with our lives. Though we choose to live our lives in the public eye we thank you for your understanding and ask privacy during this difficult time.
Vicki Gunvalson and Brooks Ayers"

Wow! I figured they were in it for the long haul by this point.

I wonder if it had anything to do with the fake cancer drama coming up.

I don't even watch this show any more, but all I can think to say is --- it's about darn time!  |

I saw Vicki saying on Andy Cohen's interview that the cancer would be proven in the show. Then I read an interview with Heather that sounded like she thought something was fishy. Why do I want to know so bad if he's faking it!

Vicki is one of those people who can't be alone. She married her first husband young, then was with Don, then Brooks. It was hard to watch such a smart and successful business woman make such a poor choice in love.

It would not surprise me if Brooks is faking his cancer. I told my dh from the start of that "line" that I thought Brooks was lying. I hope for Vicki's sake I'm wrong, but I just wonder and I guess time will tell.

I know it was petty of me, but I came to dislike Brianna (and her moron of a husband) so much that I was almost rooting for Vicki and Brooks.

I'm watching old seasons along with the latest. A few seasons ago they were discussing during a reunion show, whether or not he would be moving in if she purchased a new home and the other ladies urged her to protect her assets. I believe this was the same reunion show she talked about handing Donn half of everything. She responded absolutely, that she learned her lesson. He responded along the lines of, no way! If he moves in with her, he WILL have some equity and claim on her home. This was when it was largely known he was broke and she paying for his cars, teeth etc. I was shocked. The statement went unchallenged, too. Per usual for a reunion show, there was a lot of chatter during the conversation and I think the comment was totally missed but I always had doubts about him and from that moment on I never waivered. He was using her.
Some other things I've learned from watching past seasons:
-season 3, Vicki started changing She began acting like she was an actress. I got the feeling we were seeing a version of Vicki created for the series. She eventually morphed into that person
-not a single woo-hoo till toward the end of season three. Now it is several times an episode.
-Vicki talked about God, religion and preached against pre-martial sex for religious reasons Seasons 1 and 2. That blew my mind. I think Vicki really changed who she was at the core for the show.
-Tamra Barney's introduction seems to have been the catalyst of the show going from watching semi-real people to watching the mess it's become.

Haven't they broken up a couple times? I'm in Canada and the episodes are aired a week later so I don't read the blogs because I don't want spoilers...lol Does anyone recall if they made similar announcements the other times they've separated?

I think they broke up once before, but I don't remember if there was an announcement. I just never have been able to warm up to Brooks, although I think that too much was made of him by other people....if she wanted him, then I thought that should be her decision. I understood Brianna not liking him, but considering the jerk she married, I didn't think she had much room to criticize.

I think I remember a 'we're taking some time apart but remain friends' announcement once. Nothing like this though.

I was surprised, I really thought they were going to stay together. I wonder what happened, and what Tamra and Briana really think about it.
I find it hard to believe that Vicki would fall for someone faking their cancer. Didn't she say she went to chemo with him? I also don't think that she would make up a story line like this. You never know with these ladies though.

They did "break up" up before but there was a lot of on show chatter about the "break up" being fake. It was the season Laurie guested on and outed him for sleeping with her daughter's friend for cash- at least that was the insinuation- at a poker game. She told Vicki while dress shopping for Tamra's wedding dress. Vicki was devastated, and both did maintain the stance they were "broken up" at the time but I kinda feel while they were "officially" broken up, they were still seeing each other, given her reaction. But the whole season seemed to revolve around whether or not they were really "broken up".

I think the reason so many people doubt Brooks' cancer story is because he has lied to other women in the past about having cancer. Past flirtations and women he's met randomly while travelling, etc. have said he'll claim cancer to get their sympathies so he can go out with them.
