Vicki Gunvalson slammed Tamra Judge’s involvement in her co-stars’ issues, said Tamra won’t “expose” her and Eddie’s “problems in their marriage,” and addressed the drama with her estranged daughter Sidney Barney. In the past, Tamra has hinted at her strained relationship with Sidney, who chose to live with her father after the divorce.
Throughout the current season of Real Housewives of Orange County, Tamra has continually argued with Shannon Beador over her DUI arrest. However, some fans claim that Tamra herself is less willing to discuss her personal life.
On her new podcast, My Friend, My Soulmate, My Podcast, Vicki suggested that Tamra is making other people’s issues about herself because she “needs to” – since she doesn’t “have anything going [on].”
“She won’t expose her and Eddie’s real problems in their marriage,” Vicki went on, via @yolandafister on X, formerly Twitter. “Because her marriage is perfect? Doubt it.”
Vicki then addressed Tamra’s estranged relationship with her now-grown daughter.
“If my daughter didn’t talk to me, I’d be on a flippin’ plane right now, knocking on her door, begging her for forgiveness, and I don’t even care what I did.”
“Sidney has a very strong opinion of Tamra: ‘Stop embarrassing the family. Stop doing what you’re doing. Get off the show and we have a chance,’” she continued. “Tamra did none of that.”
“So you know what? That shows Sidney I’m not important to you. [Sidney] asked one thing: ‘Mom, stop swearing at people. Stop doing stupid stuff. And then come, let’s have a conversation,’” Vicki went on. “But even when Tamra was off [the show] for two years, she never connected with Sidney … Get off the show and reconcile with your daughter! It’s pretty simple.”
Vicki then addressed Tamra’s claim that the situation is very difficult.
“No, it’s not! You gave birth to your daughter, you f**ked up, go apologize, and make it better and move on,” she said. “You know, maybe she chose Eddie over her daughter, I don’t know … I don’t get, you know, how she cries on TV, and Sidney said, ‘Please don’t mention me. Please don’t do this.’ And the next thing you know, [Tamra]’s balling. It’s like, she can turn on the waterworks.”
