'Real Housewives of Orange County' fans shocked by Gina's domestic woes: 'It is useful to have a husband who does everything'

She credits her husband Matt for handling all the domestic chores and with him moving out, it looks like Gina is in for a rough ride

'Real Housewives of Orange County' star Gina Kirschenheiter gave us some shocking insights into her domestic life in episode four that aired on August 20. With her storyline this season quickly panning out to be like Shannon’s from last season, Gina shocked viewers when she shared about her ignorance towards domestic chores.

As her soon to be ex-husband, Matt, moved out of their house and Gina moved to a new place to start afresh, we felt happy for the girl. She invited her parents over to help her get through a painful period. She gives them a quick house tour, and we can’t help but notice how messy the house was.

There were piles of clothes lying on the floor. Later, Gina tells her parents that there is a leak in the house and that she doesn’t know the difference between gas and electric! The biggest shocker was when she revealed she didn’t know how to operate a dryer and that she often forgot to take the trash out.

In case you were wondering how she managed her house earlier, then the answer was Matt. She credits her husband Matt for handling all the domestic chores. In her confessional, she reveals, "It is useful to have a husband who does everything". This had us wondering if Gina was just a lazy person or dumb that she can't even carry out simple tasks like taking out the trash or operating a dryer. She makes it seem like running a household without a man is next to impossible.

 Fans too are appalled by Gina's ignorance. A fan commented, "So according to Gina, she doesn't understand how single women can function in day to day life without a husband? #RHOC". Another fan wondered, "So was Gina not taking care of her house when she was married and her ex was living in his own apartment? #rhoc".

In the opening scene, we see Gina trying to hang a mirror up on the wall using tape, and fans are dumbstruck by her domestic skills. A fan commented, "Gina needs more help than we thought...girls trying to hang a mirror with double-sided velcro #RHOC" while another said, "I didn’t know you needed a husband to buy a dryer. Guess I’m screwed  #RHOC."
