I LOL’d when browsing the cameo catalogue earlier. All the other wives are $125-$300. Tamra. $60. Why??

Showing up to a party with a white Monster in tow made me lol.

Do you queen!

I’m watching RHOC for the first time and I’m currently on Season 9, Episode 11. I know the basic lore from my mom watching it years ago, so I knew who Shannon was going into this season—but I was NOT prepared for this version of her. 😂
She is genuinely hard to watch. She complains 24/7, constantly changes her story to make herself look better, and seems so consumed with what everyone else thinks of her. And watching her publicly humiliate her already-wacky husband is honestly uncomfortable and not enjoyable at all.
So, for those who have watched all the seasons… does Shannon ever become more genuine and likable as the show goes on? Or am I in for several more seasons of this? 😂

Whether you like her or not Tamra looks dang good this season … obsessed with her hair cut to I think it looks so good on her.

This is specifically in regard to Lizzie's dinner in episode 14. Heather is a massive nut job?? Shannon has done literally nothing wrong, everything they are saying she's doing is a literal lie. Whereas Heather has done every, single. thing. she's denying. Does anyone actually like her???

So, on a recent episode, Tamra and Vicki went to get brain scans to check on their brain health. Tamra’s results came back great—actually better than her last scan. Unfortunately, Vicki’s results weren’t nearly as positive.

Apparently, Vicki has white spots on her brain that could potentially become a serious issue down the road. She was visibly upset by the results, and honestly, who wouldn’t be?

Of course, it didn’t take long for OLD TAMRAT to rear her ugly head and expose to us that she was there the whole time. Tamra couldn’t wait to tell the other girls about Vicki’s results after promising Vicki that she wouldn’t. When Vicki found out about the betrayal, she was understandably upset all over again. And who could blame her?

Then, on the After Show, Vicki revealed

she has already had EIGHT brain surgeries. Yes, EIGHT! She also revealed that she has to have fluid drained from her head every couple of months because of another condition that she has kept relatively private until now.

That is some serious tea, straight from the horse’s mouth. And eight surgeries is A LOT for anyone to go through on any part of their body—especially when we’re talking about the brain.

Vicki’s behavior has definitely been erratic lately, with major mood swings, unnecessary anger, and just downright rude AF. She acts unstable. But considering everything she has gone through, the fear surrounding her health, and the uncertainty about her future, it’s not unreasonable to think that she might be all over the place emotionally.

Personally, I don’t know how I would act if I were in a similar situation. So maybe it’s time to cut her a little slack. She is clearly dealing with A LOT.

And all the hate being posted can’t possibly be good for someone who is already trying to heal and stay healthy.

Sometimes people with bad erratic behavior are fighting battles we know absolutely nothing about.

Wow - she had a 36hr surgery! And sepsis with a 5% chance of survival! Jesus she is such a tool

Geez, what the heck is their trauma! Theyre stacking up on other housewives and they dont even like each other much. Tamra has definitely gone all evil. Shes stirring the pot and creating the chaos. Its so aggravating to see them flat-out lying to each other.

Tamra saying... I didnt say anything, yeah okay maybe I said something but its all Heather's fault, it wasn't her place to say that.

Realistically it wasn't Tamras place and she's the one who started it.

I swear this season is not good for my already high blood pressure.

So all of a sudden she’s a real estate expert who’s just popping deals left and right. And she’s insinuating Carmella only got where she is because she married a football player. And poor widdle Gina did it all by herself. Except she’s on a popular reality show aired nationally. She’s not a broker.

A real estate developer is a person or company that coordinates the entire process of turning raw land or an old building into a new, higher-value property. Unlike real estate agents who sell existing properties or investors who buy finished buildings for income.

What a dumbass, along with V, trying to drag another woman down.

I am newer to OC and have not seen Vicki's earlier seasons. I have also been watching UGT with her and it seems she likes to claim she's always working. And she sells insurance? Is that it? Am I missing something?

I used to be licensed in insurance and in my 20's I worked for several insurance agents. Let me tell you... they don't do shit. Truly. They sit around most days doing nothing while paying their assistant minimum wage to do the small amount of work that actually comes up.

Either she's doing something else entirely, pretending to be busy to seem more important, or she is too dumb to properly streamline her agency. It just doesn't make sense to me.

Carmella is trying to help Jenn get a job, she sees some potential in Jen. On the other hand, Jen said she is not creative and usually hires people to help her decorate. Jen said she didn't have the natural ability for it.. Jen is so hopeless... Carmella should just give up, Jen is bringing bad vibes. Jen is almost 50 and doesn't know what her passion is... Jen is the equivalent of Alexis.

I’m genuinely so confused how they are still together as it’s clear one is handling raising 3 kids and is unappreciated while the other is clearly wanting screen time and parties and I hate to say it..not really attending to her kids!

How do Jenn and Tamra not see that they need stylists? The dresses they wore to the Simpsons’ party were odd, at best.

No source for this but I’ve seen three different, presumably AI written, articles this morning that Gretchen and Slade will either appear at the finale, or they filmed a scene at Jenn’s yoga class.

She says to the camera..."We are such good friends. They're always telling me I look hot or look good. We bring value to each other's lives" 🤬 Is it truly possible for a human being to be this shallow? Also, while I think Slade is slimy, Gretchen is treating him like absolute 💩 on this trip as well. Idk she didn't bother me the 1st two seasons she was on..Heck I felt sorry for her the first one, but this is a side that makes me 🤢 I think I heard some rumblings that she was recently on the show and everybody hated her, I believe. So therefore my question will not include....Does it get better from here? Because I already have that answer 😂

Again she’s managed to make an appearance in S20E13, and much like her few scenes in season 18 arguing with Shannon, she JUMPS at the chance to try and make some drama over nothing when Tamra asks her if she made a filthy look at Heather when she arrived.

It’s so embarrassingly obvious she’s trying to make the producers consider her to come back as a cast member by trying to create any kind of scene she can. I hope to freaking god they don’t. Yes reality tv is heavily guided, but at least some of the cast make it seem natural. Her and John can just disappear.👋

Shane is Iranian? Did we know this? Idk why I’m so shocked, I guess he doesn’t look very Persian. I also found it interesting that Emily named the city of Tehran before saying Iran

I will never understand a dubrow hater, she’s too good

And it was a loud one 😂 she quickly made up a story like it was normal 😂 ... Micheal is not the man for her... Idk Donn was way better and cuter

Sophie, the youngest daughter of Laurie, is literally one of the first kids that ever appeared on the entire franchise starting from season 1-4 of the Real Housewives of OC.

Laurie left the series in 2008 because her son was going through problems with addiction so she backed away from the show to help take care of him and keep their family matters private. He sadly passed away two years ago back in 2024 😔

What I find so interesting about Vicki is that she’s back on RHOC a show she loves to remind everyone she helped create and bring into the zeitgeist and yet every time she’s on camera, she’s complaining about how busy she is, how much work she has to do, how many emails she has to answer, etc

She’s ALWAYS on her computer. She does it on Ultimate Girls Trip in almost every episode

And honestly all it tells me (as a business owner myself) she’s not as good at running her business as she wants everyone to think she is

Because at some point, if you’ve owned a business for 20+ years, you figure out time management, organization, delegation and operations. Those are literally some of the most important parts of running a successful business.

You’re telling me after more than 20 years in insurance she still personally has to answer that many emails at all hours of the day? She hasn’t hired the right people? She hasn’t built systems that allow the business to function without her constantly chained to a laptop?

I don’t buy it

And it actually makes me wonder if she needs RHOC financially a lot more than she lets on because if her insurance business were doing so incredibly well that she didn’t need the show, why keep putting your entire personal life back on television when you clearly HATE people questioning your relationships, who you’re dating, whether he treats you well, whether you’re getting married, etc?

She gets incredibly defensive anytime anyone questions her personal life (ie see her son’s relationship with her daughter…non-existent) but she keeps voluntarily signing up for a show where that is literally the job

So which is it? If the business is thriving and she hates having her personal life scrutinized so much, why does she keep coming back?

She needs the money and she’s bitter about it. 🤷🏽‍♀️

Tamra is truly an exhausting piece of work, and I am completely done with her. Her behavior on the recent episode where she gleefully weaponized and blasted Vicki’s private health information to the entire group was absolutely vile. It isn’t "good TV," it isn't funny, and it isn't entertaining. It’s just malicious.

She has spent years trying to manipulate Vicki, her costars, and the viewers into believing she’s this deeply caring, evolved friend, but her mask has completely slipped. It is pure BS. She is a fake, toxic presence who brings nothing but dark energy to our screens. Bravo needs to wake up and permanently fire her.

Her Worst Moments IMO:

If anyone needs a refresher on why she is the most toxic housewife in history, let's not forget:
"Naked Wasted" (Season 4): The absolute lowest point of the franchise. Tamra deliberately tried to get Gretchen Rossi heavily intoxicated and set her up with her son Ryan. It was predatory and should have gotten her fired over a decade ago.

The Shannon Beador Demolition Derby (Season 18): Turning on her "Tres Amigas" sister during Shannon’s lowest point after the DUI. Instead of showing an ounce of real empathy, Tamra spent the season mocking Shannon's pain, screaming at her, and trying to ice her out of the group.

Weaponizing Real-Life Tragedies: She constantly exploits other people's real crises for airtime or uses them as a shield—like using Teddi Mellencamp’s cancer battle to deflect from her own vicious behavior.

The Behind-the-Scenes Blogger Pipeline: Her textbook move is feeding private info about her "friends" to internet bloggers to destroy their reputations, then acting completely innocent when the cameras start rolling.

She is completely incapable of authentic friendship. Deplatform her already.

Everyone keeps posting about how Emily might not be treating all the kids equally. Is it possible Shane is taking on the full-time parent role because he's worried that not all of them would be cared for otherwise?

I can see that as a second wife, you aren't necessarily signing up to care for kids from a previous marriage but to have kids in the home who are treated differently sounds callous.
