ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA: During the premiere episode of 'The Real Housewives of Orange County' Season 18, viewers were treated to a candid and emotional exchange between Gina Kirschenheiter and her castmate Emily Simpson as they delved into the intricacies of Gina's love life.

In the episode, Gina talked about the intricate dynamics of her romance with her boyfriend, Travis Mullen, who had been previously married to Megan Mullen. As their relationship progressed, Gina found herself faced with a unique dilemma: the desire to maintain a connection with Travis while also opting for separate living arrangements.

This unconventional decision marked a significant shift in their relationship and sparked a deeper exploration of the boundaries and expectations within their partnership.

"It's just really hard to live with somebody else's ex-wife," Emily said.

"I feel like in my home, it's me, Travis, and our six kids. Also like, when we moved in together, the kids were tiny," Gina replied.

Gina added, "I feel like I truly am in love with Travis. I don't wanna ever break his heart and I don't wanna live without him but I just know that inside that if I don't try this, then I'm gonna lose him."

"It sucks. I'm out of room and I'm out of time," she continued.

'RHOC' star Gina Kirschenheiter purchased a new house in 2020

In 2020, Gina Kirschenheiter excitedly revealed to People that she had bought a new place, outlining the ways in which the design and layout of the house would cater to the needs of her and Travis' children. She eagerly shared her plans for the new home, expressing her excitement for the future memories and experiences that would be created within its walls.

"It’s only three bedrooms, but we have triple bunkbeds in both the kids’ rooms, so everyone has settled into their own corner. They’re just so happy together, all six of the kids, that it makes us feel so confident in this decision, and reminds us that we’re doing the right thing," she told People magazine.

Nearly two years down the line, the real estate agent disclosed to BravoTV.com that she and Travis had completely transformed the house, resulting in a significant improvement in their living situation.

The Bravo star went on to say, “We built in a really beautiful dining area with probably the largest dining room table ever. Like, it’s humongous. That’s the first comment that everybody makes. They’re just like, ‘This is such a big table.’ We’re like, ‘Yes, but we have a lot of children.’”

The couple decided to enlarge the kitchen island significantly, tripling its original size and transforming it into a spacious area perfect for hosting and entertaining guests.

Then, Gina added, "[It's] really nice, ’cause I can have people over and host and entertain."
