Tamra Judge denied digging up dirty on Jennifer Pedranti‘s boyfriend, Ryan Boyajian, on Wednesday’s episode of Watch What Happens Live.
As the Real Housewives of Orange County star, 56, was joined by her fellow tres amigas, Shannon Beador, 59, and Vicki Gunvalson, 61, Tamra shaded Gretchen Rossi, 44, and revealed if she should take more responsibility for the comments she made about John Janssen as Shannon offered an update on their relationship and Vicki slammed Teddi Mellencamp, 42.
After being asked how “annoying” Teddi is on a scale of one to 10 on the September 13 episode of WWHL, Vicki said, “I do not like her. She’s a 10.”
Then, after naming “Teddi Mellencamp” as the rudest Bravolebrity she’s ever interacted with, Vicki addressed son Michael Wolfsmith‘s ex-girlfriend’s new relationship with Tamra’s son, Ryan Vieth.
“I found it on social media,” she revealed as Tamra shared, “They met on an app and they had no idea who the other one was.”
“Yeah right,” Vicki replied. “Do you believe that?”
“Well I don’t know her so he didn’t know her,” Tamra explained.
Still, Vicki had her suspicions.
“I think that she looked for him,” she admitted. “[But] maybe not.”
According to Tamra, she has yet to meet Danielle “Dani” Golden.
“I didn’t even know they were dating. Vicki told me. Ryan doesn’t talk about his dating life to me,” she revealed.
As for her own ex-boyfriend, Brooks Ayers, Vicki confirmed she hasn’t spoken to him since “the day he left the house.”
“Nine years ago,” she guessed.
During a game of “Would You Ban Them,” the tres amigas shared who they would and would not want to attend their live show.
After confirming Jeff Lewis, 53, had already attended, Tamra and Shannon agreed Kelly Dodd, 47, would be banned as Vicki said she wouldn’t.
When Andy Cohen, 55, then mentioned Gretchen, Vicki said, “Oh that’s a tough one. I wouldn’t ban her but I would ban [Slade Smiley],” and Tamra pretended not to know who she was.
“Who? Who is that?” she asked.
Following the game, Andy wanted to know what Shannon had to say about Emily Simpson, 47, claiming she was still with John on last week’s WWHL.
“No. Emily doesn’t know anything about me. He’s watching Archie right now, which is very kind and we have a friendship,” she confirmed.
Another person wanted to know if she apologized to Gina Kirschenheiter, 39, for her CPS diss.
“Yes I have but I would like to explain that I was angry with her and I didn’t mean that her kids were gonna be put in the system and taken away from her,” she clarified. “I shouldn’t have said it. I shouldn’t have said it and I apologized for that.”
During Wednesday’s episode of RHOC, Shannon was seen refusing to appear in a swimsuit. And on WWHL, she addressed her insecurities.
“I had gained weight and I do fluctuate. I told Adeline, ‘Fifty-two. It’s gonna change for you,’ and Stella. It has nothing to do, by the way, with fat-shaming. John never did that to me, ever, but when I have a 10-pound weight gain, I feel it weighs me down emotionally, everything, everything about me,” she confessed.
Speaking of future seasons, Tamra denied Heather Dubrow, 54, should be demoted to a “friend” role and revealed which former castmate should never return.
“Gretchen,” she stated.
As for whether she should take more responsibility for the things she said about John amid season 16, Tamra said, “Well, actually, I sat down with Emily and Emily told me in a scene and I told her, ‘Well you know I’m gonna tell Shannon,’ so if that’s taking responsibility…”
Tamra was also questioned about the three qualities of Ryan she wished husband Eddie Judge, 50, had.
“Nothing,” she confirmed.
Then, as a poll confirmed the audience was Team Jennifer as Andy noted that she seemed to be ripping the newbie apart on every episode, Tamra replied, “Yeah. Do I care? No.”
She then denied digging up dirt on Ryan.
“I didn’t dig up dirt. I lived it. It happened in my gym so how am I digging up dirt?” she wondered.
The Real Housewives of Orange County season 17 airs Wednesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
