Tamra Judge Makes a Damning Statement on Scheana Shay Amid Their Drama Over Gretchen
amra Judge does not want to cross paths with Scheana Shay — and she’s spilling why.
The Real Housewives of Orange County cast member appeared on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen on Thursday, Sept. 25, where she made a big statement about the Vanderpump Rules alum. Tamra implied to host Andy Cohen that Scheana has played a role in her drama with RHOC Season 19 friend and her longtime rival, Gretchen Rossi.
“You have beef with Scheana Shay? Over the Gretchen stuff,” Andy asked Tamra, who responded, “Yeah, she created this.”
“Oh, wow,” Andy said, to which Tamra responded, “She’s a troublemaker!”
Why is Scheana Shay involved with Gretchen Rossi’s RHOC drama?
During a cast trip to New Orleans during RHOC Season 19, Tamra dropped a bombshell on Gretchen, revealing that Katie Ginella allegedly told a blogger about their incident from years ago. Katie then went on Tamra and Teddi Mellencamp’s podcast on Sept. 4, where Teddi and Katie alleged that Scheana had been the one in contact with the blogger.
Scheana responded to this allegation during Page Six’s Virtual Reali-Tea Awards on Sept. 17. “Gretchen has never said this,” she said. “I have been friends with her for over 15 years. I think I would’ve heard this story by now, and now they’re just spreading lies about me.”
“All things point to Tamra being behind this. Are we shocked by that?” she said, adding she thinks Tamra and Katie are “canoodling behind the scenes” to “deflect.” Scheana added, “One thing I know about Gretchen is that she doesn’t lie.”
Scheana took to her own podcast on Sept. 19, where she admitted that she tried to reach out to Tamra about the podcast episode where her name was brought up. “So yes, I did talk about it on my podcast, because you talked about it on yours,” she said, noting that she has also considered Tamra a “friend for several years,” in addition to Gretchen.
“That’s what I hate when it’s like, the Tamra vs. Gretchen, because I’m like, ‘Oh, I love you both.’ But then it’s like, ‘I hear you.’ But then I’m like, ‘Oh, interesting perspective.’ And so with this, I’m just like, ‘Hey, who said this?’ So, of course, I’m going to assume it’s Tamra,” she added.
Eddie Judge sounds off on Tamra Judge’s drama with Gretchen Rossi
Tamra also revealed on WWHL during Thursday night’s appearance that her husband, Eddie Judge, is upset by Gretchen and Slade Smiley’s behavior. During RHOC Season 19, Gretchen and Slade alleged that Tamra was hooking up with a celebrity musician who helped her record a song sometime around 2010, right when she started dating Eddie.
Tamra admitted that Eddie doesn’t think much about Gretchen and Slade. “It’s not true, so he has no response at all, except for that they’re evil,” she said.
