    'RHOC': Tamra Judge Hints at Possible Cameo in Season 15 Reunion

    BRAVO

    When asked during a new interview if she has plan to return to the Bravo show, the 53-year-old reality TV star explains, ‘I never know what Bravo’s going to decide to do.’

    Dec 29, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Tamra Judge may have exited “The Real Housewives of Orange County” ahead of season 15, but it seems like fans will see her in the upcoming season 15 reunion. The former Bravo personality teased her appearance in an interview on Cj Skyes’s Instagram Live series “The Weekly Scoop With CJ”.
    During the live broadcast, Tamra shared to the host that the cast reached out to her during the filming of the reunion. “I did get a phone call during the reunion…you might see it, I don’t know,” the 53-year-old reality TV star teased.
    She went on to say that she got “a little bit of feedback” on the reunion taping which took place on December 18. “I think that the reunion is going to be better than the entire season,” she said, though she admitted that she didn’t really keep up with the current season.
    When asked if she had plan to return to the show, Tamra explained, “I never know what Bravo’s going to decide to do,” adding that she had yet to get “a former offer” to come back and even if she did, she wouldn’t be “telling anyone” because she wanted to make a surprise comeback. During the interview, Tamra also believed that “there’s going to be a shakeup, a big shakeup” on the series in the future.

    Tamra, who had been on the show for 12 seasons, shockingly announced that she departed from “The Real Housewives of Orange County” in January allegedly due to reduced salary and “humiliating” demotion. “Bravo bosses wanted Tamra to be bridge from the old cast to the new in season 15 and she refused,” a source spilled to Radar Online at the time. “Tamra got her pick up contract letter last, after the other ladies, and it had major conditions in it.”
    The source added that Tamra “was even more than demoted to a friend role” which meant that “she’d have very little camera time. And it meant she would earn next to nothing in reality TV terms. She would go from $900,000 a season to $20,000 an episode for just three show appearances, which would add up to $60,000 total.” Thinking that “it was humiliating,” Tamra decided to walk away.
    In her statement, she said, “It’s been a wild ride, and after all these years, I’m looking forward to life away from the cameras. I was offered a chance to come back to the show in a limited role, but would prefer to walk away on my own terms.”

    In a new episode of ‘The Real Housewives if Orange County, the newly-added cast member reveals that she ‘grew up in complete fear, anxiety, anguish’ in a ‘in a religious f***ing cult.’

    Dec 24, 2020
    AceShowbiz – “The Real Housewives of Orange County” is opening up about her rough childhood. In the Wednesday, December 23 episode of the Bravo reality TV show, the newly-added cast member shared about her background while hiking with co-star Braunwyn Windham-Burke.
    “I was raised in a very, very religious situation, where I was told to absolutely not open my mouth, or tell the truth about what was happening, and I have a very, very hard issue with stopping the compartmentalization because I grew up in this horrible situation,” she told Braunwyn. “It’s why I don’t let people get to know me — I throw big parties, but no one really knows me.”
    Braunwind responded, “I’ve been to those parties and none of those people are your friends.” To that, Elizabeth said, “I know, and I don’t want to live that way anymore.”
    Elizabeth admitted that she needed help, though she didn’t know how to get it. “I’m not going to tell the girls, ‘Oh by the way, I was in a religious f***ing cult growing up that told me to shut my f***ing mouth or I’d be thrown under a bridge,’ ” she explained. “I really can’t talk about this. This is bothering me a lot,” she added while crying.

    Elizabeth started to struggle to catch her breath, prompting Braunwyn to help her sit down. “You’re having a panic attack.”
    In her confessional, Elizabeth revealed that she “grew up in complete fear, anxiety, anguish.” She went on recalling, “It was very, very hard for me. I was always scared for my life because we were beaten so bad that I thought for sure I was going to die one day of it.”
    “My grandmother was the leader of the church and my father was the preacher and my family really wanted me to be a preacher,” she continued. “When I was 8 years old, my grandmother asked me to speak in tongues in front of the church and she says, ‘The Lord needs to speak through Elizabeth.’ And I just faked it and they all bought it — in fact, even a member passed out.”
    “That was the exact day when I realized adults were full of s**t and that I could lie to get my way. I couldn’t stand what [the church] did,” she added.
    Meanwhile, Braunwyn shared that she was confused about the whole thing. “I have no idea what she’s talking about,” she claimed in a confessional. “But if I can get her to open up and all these things that she’s been bottling up are going to come out, she’s going to feel so much lighter and she’s going to be able to breathe.”

    “I just, I lost it. I lost my temper again with Sean belittling me over the vacuum cleaner,” the 43-year-old shared in self-filmed footage in which she struggled to get the charger for the appliance to work. “Instead of being like, ‘Yeah, I’ll help you’ — ’cause he’s still going to the office. He’s still working. He’s still getting out of the house.”
    “Instead of helping, he made fun of me and I lost it and I smacked him,” Braunwyn continued. “I haven’t done that since we were in Aspen.”

    Apparently, that’s not the first time for the Bravo personality to get physical with her husband. “I have hit Sean a couple of times in my life. Nothing though like what happened in Aspen,” she said while a video taken from their time in Colorado was played. Recalling the moment, she went on to say, “I hit him across the face and I hit him hard. I wanted to go drink. I was angry and I was lashing out and Curren saw it,” referring to their 7-year-old child.
    Prior to this, Braunwyn came out as lesbian in an interview with GLAAD. “I like women. I’m gay. I’m a member of the LGBTQIA+ community. I’m a lesbian,” she first spilled. “It has taken me 42 years to say that but I am so proud of where I am right now. I’m so happy where I am. To be able to be comfortable in my own skin after so long is just so nice.”
    Sean showed his full support for his wife by posting a throwback photo of them. He simply declared, “I love you. I’m proud of you. And I support you. Always. @braunwynwindhamburke.” Hours later, the reality TV star debuted her girlfriend on Instagram. In a snap, she could be seen resting her chin on her partner’s shoulder.

    'RHOC': Braunwyn Windham-Burke Is Livid After Gina Kirschenheiter Mentions Her Alcohol Abuse

    Instagram

    In a new episode of ‘The Real Housewives of Orange County’, Braunwyn can be seen throwing a glass and tearfully storming off after a heated confrontation with Gina at Shannon Beador’s housewarming party.

    Oct 29, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Braunwyn Windham-Burke and Gina Kirschenheiter’s drama escalated when they were at Shannon Beador’s housewarming party. In the Wednesday, October 28 episode of “The Real Housewives of Orange County”, Braunwyn could be seen throwing a glass and tearfully storming off after a heated confrontation with Gina.
    The two talked about Braunwyn allegedly slamming the size of Gina’s new condo. Braunwyn also claimed that Shannon called Gina’s new place “sad and depressing,” though Shannon denied them when she was confronted by Gina.
    “I never said that. I said it was small. I didn’t mean it [in a bad way],” Shannon insisted. “I have to tell you, Braunwyn came over to my house and said, ‘I’m sorry I threw you under the bus.’ I would never call someone’s place sad.”
    “I have to tell you, Gina, I’m a renter. [Kelly Dodd] is a renter. Braunwyn is a renter. You’re an owner,” she continued. “I don’t even know if I’ll be able to buy a house. You’re happy. I’m happy. I am so proud of you. There’s nothing sad about your life.”

    After the confrontration, Shannon pulled Braunwyn aside. “I have to tell you, I’ve been upset. I said her place was small, I never said her place was sad. That’s not in my vocabulary,” she told Braunwyn, who fired back, “You did say it.”
    When Shannon accused her of hearing things wrong, Braunwyn was livid and said, “I’m sober now – for the first time in my life I have a memory I can trust. I’m not wrong. I remember exactly what happened.” She went on saying, “Either you’re lying to me or you don’t remember what happened.”
    Braunwyn and Gina then tried to clear things out between them with Gina putting the blame on Braunwyn, accusing her of starting everything by gossiping in the first place. “Let’s call a spade a spade – nobody would be saying anything about my situation if your wife wasn’t going around launching some crazy attack on me,” she alleged. “If you had an issue with me, come to me with your issue, don’t go around slamming me because I don’t have as much money as you guys have.”
    Braunwyn insisted that it had “nothing to do with money” but “with character” instead. Livid, Gina slammed Braunwyn over her alcohol issue. “Character?! You’re going to talk to me about character?! Braunwyn, wake up. You’re a sloppy Chihuahua. You’re never clear. You’re wasted all the time! Get over yourself. Go get wasted again!” she told Braunwyn.
    The remarks appeared to be the last straw for Braunwyn. “I’m 30 days sober, b***h!” Braunwyn yelled. She then threw her glass and stormed off.

    Tamra Judge Reveals Her Fiery Reaction to Being Offered a Limited Role on 'RHOC'

    Bravo

    Following her exit from the Bravo reality TV show, the 52-year-old TV personality is now focused on her Vena CBD products, which include everything from soaking salts to cooling creams.
    May 23, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Tamra Judge shared how she decided to exit “The Real Housewives of Orange County”. In an interview with Us Weekly, Tamra revealed that she knew “for the past couple years” that she needed a break from the Bravo reality show.
    “I had said that I was going to just retire. I was just going to be at the reunion [and] just say, ‘You know what?’ ” the 52-year-old said. “And people told me there. They’re like, ‘Listen. Don’t do that. You don’t know what the future holds. Just don’t make any rash decisions. You’re super emotional.’ So I didn’t say anything.”
    With that, Tamra was convinced to stay on the reality TV show despite personal struggle as her ex-husband Simon Barney was diagnosed with cancer. “I’m like, ‘Oh, gosh. OK. This is happening. This is going to be really hard for me to go on and film. It’s going to be difficult.’ So I’m going in my head, going, ‘Oh, s**t,’ ” she explained.
    However, she later received a call from the show’s producer. “I had gotten a call and I was camping and the producer said, ‘Hey, we want to talk to you.’ And I’m like, ‘What’s up?’ And they’re like, ‘Well, the network has decided to go in a different direction,’ ” she recalled.
    “And I’m like, ‘What?! OK, well I thought we start filming in a couple days.’ And they’re like, ‘Yeah.’ And they even said, ‘We’re shocked. We’re completely shocked at this,’ ” she went on saying.
    According to Tamra, the producer told her, “They know that you said you’d never become a friend, so they want to give you a limited role.” Upon hearing the plan, the TV star said, “No, thank you.” She added, “That’s not what I said. I said, ‘F**k off!’ And then I just took a week or so and I just absorbed it. … I cried and I was scared.”
    Following her exit, Tamra is now focused on her Vena CBD products, from soaking salts to cooling creams. “It’s been keeping me busy, that’s for sure. And it’s something we’re super passionate about and we just feel really fortunate that it’s taken off,” she shared. “It’s an amazing product and, really, that’s all that people want is just a really good product that will work!”
