Tamra Judge Says Shannon Beador’s ‘Superpower Is Playing Victim’

Season 18 of Real Housewives of Orange County showed the fractured friendship between Tamra Judge and Shannon Beador. The issue? One seems to be Shannon’s refusal to go to rehab after her scary DUI. After so many bitter exchanges, is there a chance that the ladies can save their friendship?

Tamra Judge calls her friendship with Shannon Beador “toxic”

Tamra has experienced a lot of blowback for the way that she has treated Shannon, even calling her an “alcoholic.” Plus, Tamra has characterized their relationship as “a one-sided friendship.”

Meanwhile, Shannon has expressed frustration at Tamra counting her cocktails. “She has no right,” Shannon said of Tamra’s remarks about her drinking after her DUI.

Well, Tamra recently appeared on the Watch What Crappens podcast, and unloaded on Shannon. Tamra claimed that Shannon was angry with Alexis Bellino because she was dating Shannon’s ex-boyfriend, John Janssen. However, Shannon claimed that she didn’t want to be friends with Alexis because Jim Bellino, Alexis’ ex-husband, sued Shannon and Tamra for defamation.

Then Tamra called Shannon “smart and extremely calculated.” She added, “Her superpower is playing victim. She’s been doing it for 10 years.”

Tamra urged Shannon to get help

In addition, Tamra said that she spoke with Shannon the day after her DUI arrest in September 2023. “I was crying on the phone with her. ‘I’m sorry.’ But I said, ‘Listen, this is a wake-up call. You have a drinking problem. Nobody got hurt. It’s a wake-up call. You need to get help,’” Tamra explained. “And it was something I’ve been wanting to say for years. She’s been in a bad place for 10 years. At what point do you take responsibility and change your own life?”

As for right now, Tamra isn’t ready to entertain fixing her friendship with Shannon. According to Tamra, Shannon has been talking about her behind her back. “Who knows? But right now, I don’t have any intention of being friends with her,” the RHOC star said. “And you guys don’t even know how toxic it was.”

Real Housewives of Orange County airs on Bravo on Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET.
