REAL Housewives of Orange County alum Vicki Gunvalson bought a beautiful "retirement" home on the beach in Mexico.

Vicki posted on a video tour of the beach apartment sharing: "Well I did it! After spending over 30 years in one of my favorite places in the world, I closed on my vacation/retirement house today.
Other than being with my children, grandchildren and @stevelodge_oc, it’s one of my happiest and fondest memories and one of my parents' favorite destinations. I know some of you may think it’s wrong, especially in the state of the world, but for me, it immediately gives me hope and peace that things will resume to a new sense of normal soon.
"I won’t be visiting there until I’m able, but as of today, I own a home that makes me happy.

Vicki's good news follows Bravo letting her and Tamra Judge go from RHOC earlier this year.
The two subsequently ended their friendship with Shannon Beador and unfollowed her on Instagram.
Tamra had been on the show for 12 seasons, while “OG in OC” Vicki starred on the franchise from its premiere.
No word yet if Vicki is leaving Orange County permanently, but she thanked those who supported her through this difficult decision.
She added in her post: "I’m going to be donating all the bedding and most of the furniture to an orphanage and will be putting to work some painters and a decorator to make this home “Vicki.”

Vicki, who is engaged to Steve Lodge, has been vacationing in Puerto Vallarta for years.
Her condo and travels to the resort town have often been featured on RHOC.
She's even considered buying her favorite party spot there, Andale’s, or even opening her own bar in the city.
