Tamra Judge offered an update on where she stands with Simon Barney, Vicki Gunvalson, and Shannon Beador amid Thursday’s new episode of The Real Housewives of Orange County.
As she hosted an “Ask Me a Question” session on her Instagram Story, Tamra, 57, alleged that she’s held to a different standard than her castmates, reacted to Gretchen Rossi, 46, and Katie Ginella, 41, blaming her for Katie’s recording of Shannon, 61, and clapped back at Kim Zolciak, 47, who dissed her on Watch What Happens Live while also confirming whether her daughter Sophia Barney, 19, has moved out.
“Do you talk to Simon?” a fan asked Tamra on July 31.
“NOPE,” she replied, along with a thumbs down emoji.
Another person said they missed her and Vicki’s friendship as they gave a nod to their appearance on the second season of Real Housewives: Ultimate Girls Trip.
“Me too. I don’t understand why she decided to hate me. We were friends for almost [two] decades,” Tamra agreed.
A third IG user wondered, “Do you think you’ll ever go back to the friendship with Shannon from [eight] years ago?”
“Keep watching,” Tamra teased.
As her chat continued, someone else asked Tamra, “Why do cast mates demand accountability from you but judge your healing journey?”
“Because I’m held to a different standard. Always have been,” she explained. “Keep watching … [By the way]; I’m not asking for grace or understanding. I’m not making my journey their business.”
As for Gretchen and Katie suggesting that she was the guilty party when it came to Katie’s voice note, Tamra said blaming the messenger “never works.”
“[Taking] accountability for what you did works,” she stated.
Another person brought up how Kim said she was not Team Tamra on WWHL.
“Mutual feeling,” Tamra admitted.
She then confirmed that Sophia, the youngest of her three children, had not yet moved out.
“No, she decided to finish her general ed at community college then transfer to study music,” Tamra revealed.
The Real Housewives of Orange County season 19 airs Thursdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
