RHOC’s Braunwyn Windham-Burke Reveals She’s on Ozempic

Braunwyn Windham-Burke’s life has gone through a ton of changes in recent years, and she shared the latest one catching up with Us Weekly at CMA Fest.Beyond a divorce from ex-husband Sean Burke and a move to Nashville with partner Jen Spinner, the former Real Housewives of Orange County star exclusively told Us that she recently started taking Ozempic and Spinner is “starving” as a result.

Windham-Burke summed up her Ozempic journey in three short sentences: “I needed help. I got help. My wife is hungry.”

Earlier this year, Windham-Burke opened up to Us about a fellow reality TV star who encouraged her move to Tennessee, elaborating on what pushed her to settle down in the suburbs of Nashville.

“I never found Orange County to be the wholesome environment I wanted for my kids,” she shared in February. “I had sober friends out here, [The Hills alum] Jason Wahler, and he was like, ‘Move to Franklin.’ We came here and the first house we saw, I was like, “This is it. This is the life I want.”

Both Braunwyn and Spinner have found a home in Nashville. Beyond the fact that they’re building a home in Franklin, the couple have ingratiated themselves with organizations like Nashville Pride and Franklin Pride.

“I think that it’s been really great to see not just the queer community, but the general country community, which has not always been the most progressive community, really understand that queer people are not just relegated to gay bars and makeup artists,” Spinner shared while reflecting on the recent Concert for Love & Acceptance.
