Tamra Judge isn’t exactly here to play nice when it comes to her husband, Eddie Judge — and her recent clapback at Shannon Beador proves it.
On the June 8 episode of Watch What Happens Live, host Andy Cohen asked Shannon to pick a Real Housewives of Orange County husband with “small dick energy.” Shannon’s choice? Eddie Judge. When pressed, she sheepishly answered, “I’mma say Eddie.” Cohen immediately sensed the drama brewing, saying, “I had a feeling we’re gonna hear about this.” Shannon, clearly ready for the fallout, added, “OK, bring it on.”
And bring it on, Tamra did.
In a now-deleted Instagram Story, Tamra didn’t hold back with her “definition” of “small dick energy,” describing it as “a lack of confidence” and “a tendency to act in a petty or insecure way.” Then came the real kicker: “Ya, that really sounds like @eddiejudge. You might want to check your pants.” And if that wasn’t enough, she tagged Shannon — along with a clown emoji.
This isn’t just a one-off jab. The tension between Tamra and Shannon is nothing new. Shannon teased their ongoing feud during WWHL, saying, “You’ll have to tune in. We finished filming [RHOC]. And I will tell you there is so much drama in this season, but it’s stuff that you wouldn’t even script. It’s like, ‘Where did that come from?’”
The two have a complicated history, marked by confrontations over Shannon’s struggles and Tamra’s friendships. Tamra recalled the fallout over Shannon’s DUI, countering the narrative fans might have taken at face value: “They only have half the story, I can only imagine.” When pressed for her side, Tamra didn’t mince words: “The other half of the story is that, after her DUI, I was by her side every single day, talking to her every single day, trying to make sure she got the help that she needed. She didn’t get the help she needed.”
In true Tamra fashion, she added, “I just know, me, personally, if I ran my car into a house three times the legal limit and then acted like I was walking my dog looking like a zombie, I probably would never drink again.”
Despite a brief reunion truce, the peace was short-lived. Shannon’s latest RHOC appearance shows the drama is far from over.
As fans prepare for season 19’s return on July 10, one thing is clear: Tamra Judge is ready to call out anyone who crosses her — with just the right amount of shade.
