The Real Housewives of Orange County cast member is clarifying any chatter about the status of her marriage with her husband.
Emily Simpson and her husband, Shane Simpson, aren’t afraid to bring up the issues in their relationship, even any speculation about the state of their union floating around.
After an account posted “breaking news” about her and Shane “officially divorcing,” Emily took to her own Instagram Story where she set the record straight. Emily reposted the photo of her and Shane and immediately shut down the rumors.
“We’re not getting divorced!” Emily wrote over the reposted story. “Shane is never getting rid of me!”
Emily warned her followers to be wary about stories saying they’re getting divorced. “This is BS clickbait,” she added.
“I think Emily’s pathway to being healthy is terrific,” Shane explained. “I’m very proud of her, I’m very happy for her. But I do think she takes it a little too far, to the point where she disappoints herself when she can’t make it to the gym one day.”
But, according to Emily, Shane’s health habits aren’t the best — especially since he drinks soda all day. “My kids see me go to the gym every day, so I think kids seeing that I have an active lifestyle is a good thing,” she said, defending herself.
“It counterbalances Shane walking around with his Big Gulps all the time.”
Emily Simpson says it was “difficult” filming with Shane Simpson
Emily and Shane also had difficulties agreeing with his behavior when she first joined the cast in Season 13. As seen in the video above, Emily had problems with what side Shane would take when it came to the drama between her RHOC cast members. “Well, I remember you’d get mad with anything I said,” Shane said. “So that made it hard to film.”
But, Emily has since lightened up on her husband since their debut season. “I also let him be him, now,” she explained.
And being on RHOC has since helped their marriage. “I feel like Shane and I have grown as a couple and I think the show has a lot to do with that.”
