Tamra Judge‘s Real Housewives of Orange County costars seem to be getting annoyed with her many “exits” from the show.
After Tamra, 58, declared that she was “absolutely done” with the series following a spat with her castmates on Thursday’s episode, Heather Dubrow, 56, and Shannon Beador, 61, pinpointed her three supposed departures as Jennifer Pedranti, 48, and Gretchen Rossi, 46, criticized her bad behavior and accused her of “deflecting.”
“Tamra quit when we were in New Orleans. She quit at the cake party. She also quit outside at [the] tactical thing,” Heather recalled on the October 2 episode of the RHOC: After Show as Shannon pointed out that Tamra had exited the series “three times.”
“I’m telling you, she was just off this season,” Heather noted.
And Gina Kirschenheiter, 41, agreed.
“Can we look at Tamra and see that something is happening with her? Like, this isn’t, like, normal Tamra behavior. She’s f*cked up. Like, there’s something wrong this year. I just kept saying I can’t tell you what it is, but Tamra’s being weird,” she explained.
Looking back at their encounter on Thursday’s episode, Jenn said that she and her costars had good intentions as they brought forth the issues they had with Tamra.
“It came up that collectively, as a friend group, the girls don’t trust Tamra,” Jenn recalled. “And so I’m like, ‘Tamra, can’t you just hear this? Like, we’re women who love you. Can’t you, like, find someplace to go, “Okay, maybe I am the common denominator?”‘ No. She storms out. She wanted to leave the friend group again.”
According to Jenn, she feels that Tamra always gets a pass when it comes to her actions against the cast.
“There’s always, like, this allowance that Tamra can do bad and then come back. And, for me, at what point do we say, ‘It doesn’t feel right anymore?'” she wondered.
Meanwhile, Gretchen gave a nod to Tamra’s habit of avoiding accountability.
”The second that anybody calls her out or anybody goes at her, she runs away … She’s constantly deflecting and trying to, like, take things off of herself. And trying to, like, be like, ‘Feel sorry for me over here. I’m the victim,'” she described.
As for Tamra, she suggested in her own After Show segment that she can do no right.
“I invite people to my house and I’m getting attacked, left and right. I just get f*cking blamed for everything,” she complained. “I can’t win. If I scream and yell, I’m a crazy, lunatic b*tch. If I have emotions, ‘She’s ‘f*ked up.’”
The Real Housewives of Orange County season 19 airs Thursdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
