Tamra Judge Continues to Rehash Drama With Gretchen Rossi While Accusing Gretchen of Playing Victim

Tamra Judge is once again doing what she does best: deflecting.

In a recent interview with Extra, the Real Housewives of Orange County star accused Gretchen Rossi of “playing victim” and dredging up the past — but based on what we’ve seen, it sounds like Tamra’s the one stuck in rewind.

While Tamra insists she’s trying to move forward, her commentary paints a different picture. Instead of owning her part in the long-standing drama, she’s quick to point fingers, and Gretchen’s not having it.

“All she would do is talk about the past… and bring it up,” Tamra complained about Gretchen. “I said to her, from the get-go, I’m like, ‘I’m more than willing to move forward with you,’ and I really wanted to. I thought that we could, but all she wants to do is talk about the past and act like a victim and I’m just like, ‘I’m not doing this anymore.’”

But let’s be real, when someone refuses to acknowledge their role in the past, it’s pretty convenient to accuse the other person of being stuck in it.

Tamra went on to say, “Nothing good comes out of like rehashing old stuff and being stuck,” adding, “I don’t even know what I had for breakfast this morning. You want me to talk about what I did 15 years ago?”

Except… isn’t she the one rehashing it in every interview?

And of course, she topped it off with the ultimate Tamra-ism: “I’m like, stop playing victim. Move forward.”

Heather Dubrow, on the other hand, took a more balanced approach, saying, “I was very excited to have Gretchen back, and I thought she was a really good addition.” When asked about the tension, she added, “It’s always difficult when you’re in a friend group and these two have friction… you don’t want to start making teams and you know, dividing the group like that so it becomes complicated, how to navigate the friendships.”

In other words: Tamra’s not exactly making it easy.

Let’s be clear, Gretchen Rossi has every right to bring up the past if it hasn’t been resolved. That’s not “playing victim.” That’s called setting boundaries and asking for accountability.

Maybe Tamra should try it sometime.
