It may not have been the typical, hoity-toity way RHOOC’s Gretchen Rossi was used to celebrating her birthday, but somewhere between feasting on carry-out cuisine and suiting up in a smock to slap some paint on a canvas at Daniel Maltzman’s art gallery, Rossi should’ve been able to shed her new Ice Queen image and have a little fun…maybe.

This season of The Real Housewives of Orange County has brought with it a seemingly endless slew of on-camera arguments between Rossi and boyfriend Slade Smiley. From her verbal slaps in the face to the couple’s legal woes, it doesn’t seem as though Smiley can do anything right.

But he’s willing to try.

As the bickering lovebirds finished up their date Smiley, ever the romantic, presented Rossi with a portrait of her he’d commissioned.  A sweet gesture to be sure, and he obviously knows his girlfriend all to well – what better gift for her 35th birthday, than the most important thing in her life.

Herself.

“The Real Housewives of Orange County” star, Gretchen Rossi, and her boyfriend, Slade Smiley, are being sued for breach of contract, deceit, fraud and conspiracy by their former business partner, Ronann Myers, over the Gretchen Christine Beaute make-up line.

Ronann, a former make-up artist and Gretchen’s friend and business partner, claims that they started the make-up company together and agreed to split the profits 50/50. Gretchen and Ronann both initially invested $15k, but Ronann never signed a partnership agreement.

Gretchen and Ronann had an oral agreement, but when Ronann asked the real housewife to sign the papers, her boyfriend did not let her. Ronann is now seeking $100k in damages and attorneys’ fees.

The lawsuit states: “From February 2009 onward, Rossi and Smiley engaged in an elaborate scheme to defraud Plaintiff out of her interest in the make-up Line.

“Rossi and Smiley conspired to exploit Plaintiff’s experience in, knowledge of and contacts within the make-up industry to create, design, launch and promote ‘Gretchen Christine Beaute.’ Once Rossi and Smiley obtained what they needed from Plaintiff, they planned to ‘cut her off without a dime.’ Their plan was premeditated.”

Gretchen reportedly also took $2183.00 out of their joint business account without Ronann’s permission. The real housewife’s business partner also accuses her of having sale profits directly deposited on her own personal PayPal account.
