She might no longer be on the small screen, but it looks as though Gretchen Rossi might still be making headlines as a new celebrity mother. The former Real Housewives of Orange County star has revealed that she is ready to get pregnant and will even turn to in vitro fertilization if she needs to.

According to Radar Online on Thursday, the blonde beauty said that she and her beau Slade Smiley are both finally ready to have a child together.

She told the print edition of OK! Magazine, "As we begin to age, we want to make sure that we've done everything possibly to ensure a healthy baby. Slade and I have been together for five years. We already feel married and know we're meant to be together for the rest of our lives. It'd be pretty amazing to have our children at our wedding!"

As far as her IVF treatments, Rossi adds that she is very lucky to have Smiley there by her side throughout the whole process.

She said, "Actively pulling the trigger to make a baby is very powerful. You go through every step together. As I'm crying and putting in shots that are very painful, Slade is right there with me."

And while things are going pretty well in her personal life, her professional life tells another story. Earlier this summer, Rossi insisted that she was never fired from the Real Housewives of Orange County.

According to Reality Tea back in April, she fought back claims from Tamra Barney that insisted she got the axe. She said, "Once again having to take time out of my day to address & deal with this persons lies and BS. As your daughter said in her tweet to you 'It's getting old'."

She added, "If I'm such a nobody then why are you still talking about me? And if I'm such a nobody why did production call me two months ago and ask me to consider coming back to film with you guys, which I declined. You don't know anything about our exit or what happened because you were not privy to those conversations. Also hate to break it to you Slade & I do not need press, we get plenty of press without discussing you (google us). Maybe you should stop worrying so much about what we are doing, & get off twitter because obviously there is a lot more important things for you to be focusing on. #truthalwayscomesout #karma."
