Vicki Gunvalson reacted to Tamra Judge’s claim that Vicki sent her a photo of Caroline Manzo trying to push off Brandi Glanville while she was on top of her on Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip. The Real Housewives of Orange County OG also shaded Heather Dubrow, addressed Teddi Mellencamp’s divorce, and claimed she’s heard the rumor that Emily Simpson’s in-laws funded her house.
After filming RHUGT in Morocco, Caroline sued the network with the claim that production staff encouraged Brandi to drink so she’d commit harassing acts. She alleged that Brandi sexually assaulted her while filming. Brandi has continually denied the claims, and a network exec has indicated that they didn’t see evidence of the allegations.
Addressing Tamra’s claim about the photo, Vicki (a castmate on the trip) called her a “liar,” and she suggested that Tamra’s now going against the network amid their legal battle with Caroline.
“It’s so ridiculous,” said Vicki on her new podcast, My Friend, My Soulmate, My Podcast. “I don’t know what she’s doing.”
Vicki shared that she was the only castmate who had photos of that night. She also claimed that Brandi was cleared by Bravo.
“The fact that Tamra could take something and twist it the way she did — that Caroline was pushing her off — I saw the two pictures again just the other day [because] I thought, ‘Am I crazy?’” Vicki added. “And only once was Caroline pointing like this to Brandi.”
Vicki pointed her index finger up in the air.
“That was it. There was no pushing,” said Vicki. “So I don’t know what Tamra’s doing, because the network already cleared Brandi, so Tamra just doesn’t know what the truth is anymore. She lies so much that she doesn’t know what the truth is. So it’s very sad because Brandi’s like, ‘She’s a f**king b**ch.’ I’m like, ‘Tell me about it.’”
Vicki claimed Tamra is “looking for attention.”
As for the reunion, Vicki suggested it was “bizarre” that Heather knew so much about a past police report concerning Katie Ginella‘s roadside incident with another driver.
She also addressed Jennifer Pedranti bringing up a rumor that Emily’s in-laws funded her and Shane‘s house.
“I had heard that before too,” said Vicki. “They live in a very nice house … It’s really nice, in a very expensive area.”
“It would make sense that before the show, they got that house [from] her [in-laws’] help,” she went on. “It’s nothing to be ashamed of … [but] I don’t even think she addressed it.”
Vicki said she’s heard that Shane’s family is “very wealthy.”
She also addressed Teddi’s recent divorce filing, and she pointed out that the couple was “kissing each other” at “some ball” four days before the announcement.
“He probably went through her phone and found something,” said Vicki, seemingly alluding to cheating rumors. “She really is just a nasty person.”
