Tamra Judge and Teddi Mellencamp are not holding back, and this time, Rachel Zoe is in the hot seat.
During a brutally honest moment, the two reality vets called out Rachel’s on-screen presence, questioning everything from her storylines to how she’s handling sensitive moments involving her kids on Two T’s and a Pod shared by Bye Wig Hello Drama.
Teddi kicked things off with a blunt assessment, saying Rachel “was not helpful,” making it clear she wasn’t exactly bringing much to the table.
But Tamra? She took it a step further.
Looking ahead, Tamra suggested Rachel seriously needs to step it up if she plans to stick around.
“She’s going to need to do more,” Tamra said, before zeroing in on what’s clearly become her biggest issue: Rachel’s repeated conversations with her children about their father.
And according to Tamra—it’s not just noticeable, it’s excessive.
“It’s every damn scene,” she said, pointing out that nearly every time Rachel is with her kids, the topic somehow circles back to their dad.
Teddi agreed, admitting that while it may have initially felt raw and real, it’s now crossed into overkill.
“At first it was like, wow, they are really opening up, they are sharing—but now it’s too much, we’ve got it,” Teddi said. “Rachel is annoyed with her ex, we got it.”
Tamra didn’t stop there. She raised concerns about how those conversations might actually be affecting the kids themselves—especially with cameras rolling.
“I am going to need Rachel to do more,” she continued. “She doesn’t say anything out loud and every time she is with her kids she asks about their dad. First of all, it makes the kids uncomfortable. Then you put a camera in their face and ask how is it going with their dad. It’s every scene. Every damn scene.”
And in what might be the most eyebrow-raising take, Tamra suggested the dynamic feels a little… intentional.
She said it comes across like Rachel is waiting for her kids to say something negative about their father—something Tamra clearly isn’t here for.
“They are not teenagers. They aren’t in their twenties. They are young kids,” she pointed out.
Meanwhile, Teddi also called out a separate moment that didn’t quite land—when Rachel chimed in during an emotional scene involving Erika Jayne.
“Even when Erika was crying, and she goes, ‘ugh can I just say something, she looks beautiful?’” Teddi recalled, seemingly unimpressed.
Tamra added that the line didn’t feel original either, noting Rachel had already used that same joke on someone else.
Ouch.
Between questions about authenticity, concerns over sensitive family moments, and critiques of her overall contribution, it’s clear Tamra and Teddi think Rachel Zoe has some work to do.
