Shannon Beador and Tamra Judge fired back at Heather Dubrow on their Instagram Stories after learning their Real Housewives of Orange County castmate suggested their friendship is for the show.

After coming across a snippet from one of Heather’s recent interviews, Shannon and Tamra shared a statement against her, hinting Heather is guilty of hypocrisy, as Shannon posted an old clip of herself discussing the way Heather dropped her and Tamra following her exit from the show in 2016 after season 11.

“To be honest with you, I don’t really speak to Heather very much anymore, and it’s not by my choice. We’ve just kind of grown apart. She’s not on the show anymore,” Shannon said during an October 2017 appearance on Watch What Happens Live.

Then, after claiming she was unsure of what prompted the estrangement, Shannon said Heather cut ties with both her and Tamra after her past departure from RHOC.

“I’m gonna get in trouble for this, but she invited Tamra and I to her Super Bowl party, said save the date, and then she announced she wasn’t coming back on the show, and we never got the details,” she revealed. “And then she unfollowed Tamra, [Meghan King], and I on social media.”

Fast forward to years later, and during a June 22 interview with TODAY, Heather was questioned about Shannon and Tamra’s recently-rekindled friendship.

“Do you think Tamra and Shannon’s friendship is just for the show?” the outlet asked.

“Let’s just go with the facts,” Heather replied. “The facts are that they were, quote, ‘best friends,’ and then as soon as Tamra left the show, they didn’t speak. Now that she’s back on the show, all of a sudden, we’re close friends again. You do the math.”

But after seeing the comment, Shannon and Tamra clapped back by sharing a post from a Bravo fan page.

“I think it’s funny. If I remember correctly when Heather left the show after season 11 both [Tamra Judge and Shannon Beador] said that you stopped talking to them,” their message read. “Pot calling the kettle black?”
