Tamra Judge clapped back after Vicki Gunvalson slammed her “ugly” behavior toward Shannon Beador on Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip. The OG castmate said Tamra “treats [Shannon] like she’s dirt,” as Vicki warned her, “Karma’s a b**ch.”
On the season premiere, Shannon walked away after Tamra called out her drinking — and seemed to imply that she has a much better life than Shannon because Tamra is married and has kids in college.
At one point in the episode, Gizelle Bryant told Tamra that Vicki shared on a boat ride that Tamra makes things up and throws people under the bus on Real Housewives of Orange County. But in the flashback, Vicki said simply that she loves Tamra but worries about what she’ll say for the cameras.
On her podcast, My Friend, My Soulmate, My Podcast, Vicki reacted to Tamra’s fight with Shannon.
“I didn’t hear any of [the fight] — because I was on the other side of the bar with Heather — until it aired last night,” she said, via @housewivesfromahousewife on Instagram. “And I was mortified that Tamra said to Shannon, ‘I have a good life, a perfect life. I’m married. My kids are in college.’”
“Well, hang on,” Vicki added, addressing Tamra. “Shannon got divorced. [It was] sad, so bad. I mean, she was cheated on. What was she going to do? She had to get divorced.”
Vicki also pointed out that Shannon’s kids are also in college.
“[Shannon’s] kids are in college. I mean, Sophie is 27 now, [with a] full-time job in New York City. Her other two that are twins are in college. [Tamra] just went so low.”
“And I was surprised that Gizelle said to Tamra what I said on the boat, because [she] was kind of like, ‘Are you friends with Tamra?’” Vicki explained. “It’s like, yeah, I’m friends with Tamra, and I do love Tamra, and I care for Tamra, but I don’t like how she treats people. And I said it to Tamra: ‘Why do you have to go so ugly and so deep and so hurtful?’”
Vicki praised Shannon’s response to Tamra’s actions.
“I think Shannon was right to walk out and just say, ‘I’m not going to sit here and be berated,’” she said. “[Tamra] treats her like she’s dirt, and nobody deserves that. [Tamra]’s carrying this anger towards Shannon for so long. It’s like, let it go. Let it go. If you don’t want to be friends with her, don’t be friends with her. But you don’t have the right to say, basically, your life sucks and my life’s perfect.”
“Be careful, Tamra. Karma’s a b**ch,” said Vicki. “You don’t know when s**t can happen to your life. And then, God forbid somebody says something bad about it, you know? That’s what I meant to say to Gizelle, whether it was relayed the same way. I don’t like people being mean to people.”
In a now-deleted comment, Tamra fired back at Vicki.
“Worry about your own mean behavior #momshammer,” wrote Tamra. “And yes I do have a good life because I’m in control of me myself and I. I don’t blame others for my misfortune… and that was what I was trying to explain.”
