[Tamra Judge](https://allabouttrh.com/category/the-real-housewives-of-orange-county/tamra-barney/) recently opened up to *[DECIDER](https://decider.com/2024/08/22/rhoc-star-tamra-judge-admits-problem-when-drinks-say-whatever-feel-like-saying/)* about claims that she pushes boundaries and behaves problematic when she drinks. While Tamra Judge admits she has ***"a problem" ***when drinking, she ultimately defended her behavior. ***“Oh, I am a problem when I drink. I’m an assh*le when I drink,” ***Tamra said. ***“I just say whatever I feel like saying. I don’t lie. That’s one thing. But I just say the things that are deep down inside.”*** She continued to defend her drinking, insisting that she barely touched a sip of alcohol during the second half of season 18. ***“I rarely drink the rest of the season. I mean, I didn’t have to run my car into a house to say, ‘You know what? I need to stop drinking,’”*** Tamra said. ![Tamra Judge tosses napkin in fight on RHOC](https://allabouttrh.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/Screen-Shot-2023-07-20-at-6.36.52-AM.png)Tamra Judge tosses napkin in fight on RHOC This all comes after Tamra's *Real Housewives Orange County *co-star [Jennifer Pedranti](https://allabouttrh.com/category/the-real-housewives-of-orange-county/jennifer-pedranti/) called her out for having ***“a problem when she drinks.” *** [Last month](https://allabouttrh.com/2024/07/22/jennifer-pedranti-tamra-judge/), Jennifer said that Tamra used drinking as an excuse for her bad behavior throughout season 18 of RHOC. ***“It is an excuse. It’s always the excuse. And that was, that’s what was so hard for me was Shannon, like you talk about Shannon’s drinking problem, [but never acknowledge your own issue],”*** [the 47-year-old RHOC star ](https://allabouttrh.com/2024/07/18/rhoc-jennifer-pedranti-divorce/)said in an interview with *[DECIDER](https://decider.com/2024/07/18/rhoc-star-jennifer-pedranti-says-tamra-judge-problem-when-she-drinks/)*.  ![Jennifer Pedranti Calls Tamra Judge a “Piece of Sh*t” during part one of the RHOC season 17 reunion](https://allabouttrh.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/RHOC-Reunion-Tamra-Judge-Jenn-Pedranti-scaled.jpeg)Jennifer Pedranti Calls Tamra Judge a “Piece of Sh*t” during part one of the RHOC season 17 reunion She continued, ***“I get that it’s vastly different, but Tamra has a problem when she drinks. We all suffer the wrath of her when she drinks too much. She will say she has the awareness of it — well then, work on that.
