The aftermath of Gina Kirschenheiter’s domestic violence allegations against her estranged husband Matthew will be part of the upcoming 14th season of The Real Housewives of Orange County.
Filming for season 14 finished before Gina, 35, and Matt’s alleged incident took place on June 22. She claimed he hit her repeatedly and threatened to kill her after a night out together.
Matt, 35, was arrested on suspicion of domestic violence. Gina was later granted “legal and physical custody” of their kids until a hearing takes place on July 17.
“Filming wrapped prior to this happening and, when it did, Gina and Matt were reconciling,” a source close to production told RadarOnline.com on Friday. June 28.

“But since this is a part of her life now, it must be covered,” the source continued. “They are currently scheduling reshoots so that they can get this all into the upcoming season 14.”
Filming has been pushed back a few weeks because Gina is on the East coast with her three children (Nicholas, 7, Sienna, 5, Luca, 4). “After this happened, Gina took the kids to spend time with her mom and dad in New York,” the source revealed, adding that the reality star is ready to talk about what happened.
“Gina knows that it would be impossible not to include this as part of her storyline because it is such big news,” the insider said, before claiming the footage will likely air towards the end of next season.
Gina, along with Tamra Judge, Shannon Beador, Vicki Gunvalson, Emily Simpson, Kelly Dodd and newbie Braunwyn Windham-Burke, make up the cast for RHOC’s upcoming season that is set to premiere this summer.
