It was a glamorous affair when Real Housewives of Auckland socialite Gilda Kirkpatrick launched her second children’s book Mutiny in the Solar System last night in Auckland.
As you would expect, there was a galaxy of stars (we couldn’t resist!) who came out to support the Iranian-born mum-of-two including her RHOA gal pals Louise Wallace, Angela Stone, Julia Sloane, Anne Batley Burton and Michelle Blanchard.
And, of course, when you get a group of Housewives into a room together it’s not always going to go smoothly … All we can say is our photographer Carmen had to wait 40 minutes for the dramas to settle down before she could take their picture!
Also spotted in the crowd was our favourite reality TV Bachelorette bad girls Chrystal Chenery and Nazanin Khanjani, who happily posed up a storm for us.
Mutiny in the Solar System is available August 8 and Real Housewives of Auckland is coming soon to Bravo.
