Gretchen Rossi Gets Rich After Fiance’s Death (Photos)
“The Real Housewives of Orange County” star Gretchen Rossi has 2.5 million reasons to smile after the death of her fiance Jeff Beitzel, who had been fighting leukemia for a long time.
Even through, Gretchen made it sound like she didn’t want Jeff’s money after taking care of him for so long but it turns out he did leave her a good amount of money since she was included in his life insurance policy.
Gretchen was awarded $2,500,000 and didn’t lose any time to move on with her life. The 31 year-old reality star is rumored to be dating Slade Smiley and has been seen around with other guys.

[...] reputation, despite the fact she got engaged to a much older and wealthy man, Jeff Beitzel, who lost his battle with leukemia last year and made her a very rich woman (more details here). “Everyone thinks that I am a gold digger! I made my own money before [...]
Sorry about Mr. beitzel, I feel by watching the show you did care for him and his family. It takes a special person to take care of someone you love and give up your goals, people who cant see this will bash you. I fell in love with you when I first watched the show!! Your personality is so charming, and your beautiful on the outside as well as in…My husband and I have worked in healthcare for years and thats how we met. We worked as nursing assistants in a nursing home, now he is a Ortho Nurse at a hospital while Im going to college for Respiratory Therapist. (this is why I say it takes a special person to set a side your goals, I can understand) Cant wait for the new show!!! Good luck to you…
Just take one look at her on the website “THE DIRTY”, and youll change your tune friends. Its not even about her nude photos…which show her with her sex toys, and sitting on the toliet with her pants down, and in a car tweaking her nips. This woman is just plain nasty. She was having a ongoing affair with JAY while she was supposely engaged to JEFF. She had JAY tattooed on her ring finger while she was filming HOUSEWIFES of OC, the same time she is pretending to be engaged to Jeff. The ring that she got on the show was a FAKE from BRAVO TV, to cover up the tattoo. If for one minute you believe that this woman didnot exploit Jeff, I guess you are the same people who think ANNA NICOLE didnot marry the old man millionaire for his money. All these reality shows are scripted, duh, the more drama they create, the better they get paid. Nikita…go look at “the dirty” and come back and tell us how wonderful she is. You know all the time I thought that Tamra was just jealous, turns out she was telling the truth the whole time, no wonder she is so bitter towards Grethen.
Teresa, so what if Tamara is telling the truth. Last time I checked Gretchen was not a minor and what she does is her business and hers alone. What gives Tamara the right to judge her and say nasty things about her? While Tamara’s been so busy meddling in Gretchen’s affairs, she forgot to take care of her marraige which is why she’s headed for divorce court with nothing in the bank. A broke gossiping bitch? Now who wants that? She should have spent her time looking at open jobs on the internet and not looking for dirt on Gretchen. There has to be some amount of jealousy there since she spends so much time and effort gathering whatever negative images she can to tarnish Grethchen’s reputation. Maybe she should have considered a sugar-daddy, since she has no other quailifications that would yield her any income. And Vickie? That Miss Piggy looking, self centered, deceiptful wicked witch. They are a match made it heaven. Let’s see if Vickie backs Tamara up when Simon leaves. See how she treated Vickie? The drama continues and I will be watching. I love that show!! Should be called the Real Housewives of Drama County.
From earlier comment: Should read “She how she treated Jeana”?
Her ring was really a fake? How come Jeff was so stupid to all her antics. I mean they dated 1 yr before he was diagnosed. Men LOVE beautiful women BUT they hate to be used and made a fool of. Do you really think he was just that stupid? Then, why doesn’t she just take her money and get off the radar (meaning get off the show).
Gretchen is a single adult. She is free to see whomever she wants. I do believe during her grieving period she let her guard down in trusting her so called ‘friends’ and allowed him to photograph her in precarious situations. I have trouble believing she wanted these posted!? Maybe she shouldn’t drink SO much since she makes poor judgment calls. What I like about Gretchen is she is who she is and makes no qualms about it.
I know Gretchen personally and she didn’t receive the figure$$$$, above mentioned once Jeff passed. Please don’t post about things that are untrue. It’s not a karma thing to do.
Gretchen received a VERY minimal amount of money. VERY minimal; nowhere near even a million dollars! She is not lying when she says she is “poor” (it’s a relative term) & has a garage sale for money. Yet, as usual, lies continue to be printed about her. And jealous, judgemental, immature, mean girls like Tamra & her evil sidekick Vicki continue to spread them! Give the woman a break. First of all, even if half of the crap y’all published was true, and it’s not, it’s still none of our buisness & not our place to judge!!!! Gretchen is always sweet to people. The only time I’ve ever really heard her not be is when she finally got fed up & began sticking up for herself. You, Tra & Vicki should all be ashamed of yourselves! Of course you won’t be. Which is a lot of the problem with heartless, selfish people like y’all.
why do people give a hoot who gretchen is sleeping with. She’s a grown woman leave her alone. I don’t understand why people care so much about other peoples personal lives! God!
Tammie, I agree with your post on 11/21 – it’s not any of our business who Gretchen sleeps with. whether she has money or not is irrelevant – the fact is – she is gorgeous and has a pure heart. This is why Tamra is so jealous of her – because her own ugliness has been exposed. Tamra and Vicki belong together – they are both ugly, evil, gossipy, and greedy. Simon will be dumping Tamra soon – just wait and see! And piggy-faced Vicki will have no friends left very soon as well – she can sleep with all her money but that still won’t buy her class. Tamra and Vicki are trashy – wish they were off the show!
I remember when Jo first came back for the end of the season.That is who Tamra replaced. You took one look at her face and could just see the jealousy. She was like what is she doing here? Jo, Alexa and Gretchen are way better looking than Tamra ever will be. Inside and out.
Tamara is a jealous shrew. Gretchen is single and an adult. To even imply that she was just using Jeff is heartless and stupid. Watching someone die seems like a lot to go through for money. She brought Jeff happiness.
What is wrong with you people! Gretchen is a two faced liar! She has lied and made fools out of all of us! Everything Tamra said about Gretchen is true and Tamra does not care to me made a fool of. Jay is very upset that Gretchen told the TV viewing public that he was a stalker and he has proof that she is lying. He is a salesman and she has defamed him on television. That is why Gretchen did not show up at court for her restraining order against Jay and now she must pay over $19,000 for his attorney fees. He will probably (should) file a civil suit against her as well. All you Gretchen fans are just taken in by her beauty, charming (fake) personality, and phony heart breaking sad story. I was taken in too, but no more! Jay has posted plenty of proof on the Internet to try and clear his name. Just as Tamra said. The courts will deal with that lying, cheating, Gretchen!
Gretchen is an amazing person and the show would not exist without her. She is kind funny and free spirited. I am a psychologist and I am trained to assess human behavior. It is clear that there is alot of jealousy towards Gretchen. The other lack the positive characteristics Gretchen has and they are threatened by her.
Everyone posting about the opinions they have created from watching the show need to keep them to themselves. It is not our place to judge anyone else’s choices or how they live their lives. We can either support that person because they follow similar beliefs as us or choose to ignore their lifestyle. Shame on all of us for feeding on this information that is being spread around the internet, TV, magazines, etc. I truly believe (from personal experience) unless you are hearing the information from the person’s mouth than anything else is fake and should not be taken seriously. I hope we can enjoy the show without making judgments about other people’s choices of how they decide to live.
i would just like to say i think gretchen is a wonderful person, who cares if she was left money by jeff they seemed to love each other, he obviously wanted her to have it and i think she deserves it she took good care of him. if he had lived and they married she would have been able to use it anyway. and i think tamara is a nasty witch who is very jealous of gretchen, tamara is a very petty woman who thinks shes better then everyone else and she not i think she a horrible person and cant be trusted. she should just mind her own business and worry about improving her own life which doesnt seem to good,she should wish she could be half the woman gretchen is.
Please look how beautiful she is. Does anyone really believe that we girls want some old grey haired guy who didn’t have money? He was just as bad, he only wanted her for her body and was using her to for sex and to feed his ego I am sure. Wake up people!
I like Gratchen and she an happy, outgoing person she desires the best from what all shee been though she been though. alot..give her a break!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and also she is a human and not fake…..GO GETCHEN
Love her…Great Girl…..Give her a break!!!!!!!!!!!!! i Love her!!!
I sit here and watch this show, when by myself, and wonder what would it be like for you to live in my shoes for one day…You would all probably be embarassed to say that you live from paycheck to paycheck, Mom just lost her job and Dad just had to file bankruptcy. That has left us with an old Honda to drive and trying to protect our children from being aware of this. But I can honestly tell you that I would not be ashamed to have all of you at my little country home for a BBQ. Now, granted, it would not be up to your standards but I would not let you leave here without feeling anything but love and friendship…So stop bickering over things that don’t matter. You only have one life to live and it is a very short ride. We are put here on this earth to try and make every day better for someone. Can you go to sleep saying that you have done that? I can…
Gratchen kept saying how hard it was looking after jeff , even told his kids u want to know what i do all day , i look after your dad.Well let me tell u when u love someone u dont think of it as work, u dont need a holiday or a day off your life is being with them all day every day, anyone who says they like gratchen are probably nasty evil gold diggers too, tammra saw through her, gretchen is ugly through and through and she will answer to God she carnt lie to him. She is an insult to to women who love and look after their men. There is a million Gratchens two a penny gokd digging slags.

Slade is a major player, the man looks like he is all that, but his hair looks fake. Gretchen you reap what you sow. I don’t feel sorry for any of them, they all are fame seeking money grabbing people at any cost. No morals, no heart, each plays the other.
Gretchen, Gretchen, Gretchen…. Hmmm. There’s a few moments that I’ve quite liked her on the Real Housewives of Orange County, but not many. She’s just too much of an attention-seeker with a loud mouth. In her quieter and less silly moments, I could almost like her.
Unfortunately, I do actually believe that she had a secret boyfriend. Perhaps she was engaged to Jeff too.
I do actually quite like Tamra and Vicki. They are two of my favourite housewives, but they do let themselves down with their incessant b**ching and back-biting. Tamra you’re no saint, and the Tequila Shots dinner was really despicable.
