As she went to the restroom after Tamra commented on driving into someone’s house, Tamra conversed with a producer about whether the former Tres Amiga was drinking.
“Is she getting a drink?” Tamra asked after she learned that Shannon was in the restroom.
Shannon had accused Tamra of trying to defame her earlier in the episode because of the constant comments about her being drunk or having an alcohol problem.
As a result, viewers sounded off on Tamra’s actions as the episode aired, and it was not pretty.
A fan believes Tamra is baiting Shannon into drinking
One fan thought that Tamra was “100 percent baiting Shannon to drink” so that she could turn the tables and say, “See, she’s a drunk.”
Another fan said Tamra “really can’t help herself” in response to the comment.
“Shannon just told her that she’s been in a defamation tour and she doesn’t stop,” the viewer pointed out.
Another fan took issue with Tamra’s statements that she “feels for Shannon” and doesn’t “want to make things worse.”
To get their point across, they used a GIF of Kathy Bates on American Horror Story Coven, in which her character screams “lies.”
With Tamra and Shannon working through their issues at the end of the episode, there’s a good chance something massive happens in the back half of the season that drives a wedge between them again.
Tamra and Shannon are headed for another falling-out
They are not friends… unless they’ve been fooling the media to prevent spoilers.
Something tells me it will be related to Alexis Bellino because Jesus Jugs is the common denominator for all the issues between Shannon and Tamra this season.
There’s so much drama left this season. We can’t wait to see what’s on the horizon.
