Jennifer Pedranti of 'The Real Housewives of Orange County' has announced that she and her fiancé, Ryan Boyajian, have finally set a wedding date.
Pedranti shared that the decision to set a date was influenced by her children, particularly her son Greyson. "I had to drive Greyson to work the other day, and he’s like, ‘Mom, I’m putting you in the hot seat. When are you marrying Ryan?'" Pedranti recalled. She added, "It’s just been long enough. I am tired of talking about it; Ryan and I need to do it." The couple plans to marry just before spring break next year.
During the current season of 'RHOC,' Pedranti's relationship with Boyajian has been a frequent topic of discussion among the cast. Pedranti noted that returning cast member Vicki Gunvalson has often used her relationship as a way to deflect from her own relationship with boyfriend Mike Smith. "I’ve heard Vicki say several times that being on the show has ruined relationships for her in the past," Pedranti said. "If she can deflect attention onto somebody else’s relationship instead of her own, she’s going to do it. I feel like she thinks it’s protecting her and Michael."
Pedranti also addressed Gunvalson's comment calling her "low-hanging fruit" in a recent episode. "She probably sees me as someone a little bit soft and kind," Pedranti stated, acknowledging that the comment hurt. She expressed appreciation for castmates Shannon Storms Beador and Emily Simpson standing up for her after the remark.
Pedranti also discussed her relationship with her children, including her son Greyson's openness about the impact of her divorce. "That situation was crazy for me because I pride myself on being very close with my kids," she said. "When he opened up about how hard the divorce has been on him, I was a little taken aback because I couldn’t believe I didn’t know how he felt." She is grateful that their relationship has since improved.
Looking ahead, Pedranti teased the upcoming cast trip to Tokyo, describing it as a trip filled with "laughs," "tears," and "very uncomfortable moments."
