If there were an Olympic sport for shading Bravolebrities, Tamra Judge would secure the gold medal.
The latest co-star in her crosshairs is one-time friend Vicki Gunvalson, who has been making guest appearances on The Real Housewives of Orange County in recent years.
Vicki was an original star on the hit reality series, but producers now believe she works better, popping in and out of the drama.
In a new interview with Page Six’s Virtual Reali-Tea podcast, Tamra savagely responded to Vicki’s current contributions to the show.
“She’s a side b—h on the show. She can’t even get a clementine, let alone an orange,” Tamra said of her former ally.
“She can’t get a Cutie, a clementine, or an orange.”
It’s unclear whether Vicki wants to be on the show full-time nowadays, but she does have a lot to say whenever she stops by.
Vicki recently called out Tamra
Earlier this month, she criticized Tamra and Alexis Bellino on-screen for their treatment of Shannon Beador, conceding that their actions don’t align with her view of how women should be treated.
“I think we need to give her, like, a grapefruit,” Tamra dished.
“She’s so sour.”
Vicki was a series regular for the first 13 seasons of the original Real Housewives show and called herself the “OG of the OC.”
As for Tamra, she joined the third season of the show and was fired after Season 14, but returned during Season 17 and reclaimed her orange.
For several years, Tamra and Vicki were great friends, and along with Shannon, they formed the Tres Amigas and embarked on live shows across the U.S.
However, Tamra distances herself from her former friends, bailed on the live tour, and became fast friends with her former enemy, Alexis Bellino.
Tamra’s friend group has changed
Tamra and Vicki have been exchanging insults in the media while promoting Season 18, so it isn’t too surprising to hear Tamra taking another shot at her nemesis.
In the same podcast appearance, Tamra Judge revealed that the backlash affected Alexis Bellino.
She also trashed The Real Housewives of New Jersey’s Jennifer Aydin and said she’s confident she won’t return for the RHONJ reboot.
As we said, Tamra likes to shade her fellow Bravolebrities, which may bite her in the future if she reaches out to specific names she’s talked about to appear on her podcast.
The Real Housewives of Orange County airs Thursdays at 9/8c on Bravo. Stream Seasons 1-18 on Peacock.
What a shame what women will do to other women this is so heartbreaking because I believe in friendship forever whatever whatever happened to BFF. Vicky doesn’t deserve the backlash that Tamara is spouting off. Someone should stop Tamra. She’s nothing but a troublemaker and a backstabbing b***h she’ll do anything to stay on that show, I’m beginning to hate reality TV. It’s so phony people are stabbing each other to stay on TV. It’s also wrong. Makes me sick. Don’t count on me watching Tamra Judd for anything.
Well shes a FOOL like TMellencamp
They’re on the show for a purpose and to fill a certain position. Bravo doesn’t care about their personal life
Mellencamp said in her last season they filmed about her youngest and the surgeries she had to go thru .. And none of that was shown .. Again bc she was there to take down DR
And Alexis is there to attack Shannon
And these women are O.k with these roles and tearing down another woman 🙄
And poor Alexis is Upset at the fans backlash 🤦♀️. You’re being Used to destroy another persons psychic for drama .. How does that sit with you Akexis ???? Shes at her most vulnerable – shes trying to get better and recover from her DUI… And you’re there to destroy all that
How does that Feel. 🤔 Idiot women
All for a paycheck. And now you’re threatening about door camera videos.. This will come bck & bite you in the end .. And maybe Johnny boy is using you for Revenge towards Shannon
How & Why another woman would go to these lengths is mind blogging
You & Tamrat are just middle age – menopausal Bullies
