Tamra Judge claims that her former best friend and *Real Housewives of Orange County,* costar Shannon Beador used her during their friendship. *“I was a little bit afraid of her because I know what she can do,”* Tamra revealed to co-host Teddi Mellencamp on their new podcast, *[Two T's in a Pod](https://www.instagram.com/two.ts.inapod/)*. *“She set me up quite a few times. Like, she’ll say, ‘In [a] scene, can you say, “David did this.” I did that a couple of times, and then as soon as I said it, she’d go, ‘Oh my God! Why would you say that?’”* According to Tamra, the biggest mistake she made on the show was *“protecting”* Shannon and remaining friends with her for so long. *“I should’ve just called her out, and I think she stayed close to me because she knew I knew a lot, and I would call her out,”* she confessed. *“After I was let go, she stopped taking my calls,”* Tamra explained. *“This is a girl that called me 100 times a day, woke me up in the middle of the night. I was constantly talking her off a cliff. She was a lot of work. She was a full-time job. I never really needed her. She always needed me. [But] when I left the show, I needed her.”* *“She literally did that to me; she did that to [Vicki Gunvalson]. She did it to Heather Dubrow too. She does it to everybody that leaves,”* Tamra continued. Teddi chimed in, asking, *“So she’s a user?”* to which Tamra replied, *“100 percent.”* *“It was a one-sided friendship,”* Tamra added. *“She never really asked me about my life.”* *The Real Housewives of Orange County *airs on Wednesdays at 9 pm EST on Bravo. ## Thoughts on this all?
