RHOC Star Tamra Judge is Called Out For ‘Bad’ Photo Editing After Posting New Bikini Picture

Tamra Judge is no stranger to controversy, both on The Real Housewives of Orange County and when it comes to her social media antics. Recently, the Bravo star shared a brand-new image of her summer-ready body, but she faced backlash from many fans who felt she had edited the picture. 

Tamra’s recent social media backlash coincides with the cast of RHOC gearing up for the premiere of the show’s 19th season. The season premieres on Bravo on July 10, and it will feature the return of Gretchen Rossi after a 12-year absence. 

Tamra, 57, recently took to her Instagram account not only to show off her bikini but also to promote The Real Housewives of Orange County. The podcast host said in her caption, “Thirsty Thursday and only three weeks ’til the [orange emoji] hits the fan. #RHOC #57yearsyoung.”

Naturally, there were many complimentary comments on the Instagram post. One came from Real Housewives of Miami star Guerdy Abraira, who left fire emojis, and another came from RHONJ‘s Jennifer Fessler, who said, “Dayuuuum girl!!!”

Notably, Heather Dubrow also reacted positively to Tamra’s photo on Instagram, leaving multiple fire emojis. A fan said, “If my body was like hers, I’d be posting bikini selfies too! She’s a grandma and is still hot hot hot!”

However, not all comments on the post were flattering. 

One follower stated to Tamra, “Grow up.” Other people began to call out what they perceived to be photo editing. According to one poster, “That filter is tooooo much. Girl, stop.”

Someone else left a comment that reads, “It’s a far cry from what she looks like in rl that’s my point.” Another comment said, “The Photoshop is so bad.”

As for the bad editing, one user pointed out, “You can see the door from is curved lol.”

Still, most of the replies to her Instagram post were positive. As mentioned, RHOC returns to Bravo on July 10. The episodes stream on Peacock the very next day.
