Vicki Gunvalson Claims Tamra Judge Wanted Back On 'RHOC' More Than She Did

Vicki Gunvalson is claiming that Tamra Judge was more desperate than her to get back on the Real Housewives of Orange County… okay, Vicki.

The insurance saleswoman told Us Weekly that Tamra Judge, her former co-star and best friend was dying to get back on the popular reality franchise one way or another. She claims that  Judge, 55, “really wanted it more”.

Gunvalson even went on to give the “Two Teas In A Pod” co-host a compliment admitting that  “she’s good TV.” However, Gunvalson did think that it would have been her to come back to the Real Housewives franchise full-time. Dare we say, she was jealous?

Gunvalson said, “I was jealous, mad,” wow, a shocking admission coming from Vicki. “I thought the phone would be ringing for [me]. I’m like, ‘Hello, Andy [Cohen], you’re not calling me!’” she wandered to herself desperately.

The 60-year-old and Judge most recently appeared in a franchise spinoff Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip Ex-Wives Club season two. Where they were practically terrorized by Dorinda Medley for a week and made us all laugh.

Gunvalson was also apart of the original cast back in 2006 when the show premiered and held an orange for 13 seasons. You can see why she assumed she would get the first offer.

Judge has a better TV presence as Gunvalson has finally admitted and while she started after Vicki, a lot of the times people tolerated Gunvalson because of her and Shannon Beador when she was apart of their crew.

Judge joined the show in season 3, her last season was season 14 just behind Gunvalson. The fans had had enough and she may have been on the outs with Andy Cohen for a bit. Unlike Medley she wasn’t “on pause” she was full-blown fired and owned up to it, something that many of the housewives can’t do.

Let’s keep in mind that Gunvalson and Judge and best friends so naturally, they will be filmed hanging out together. PageSix reported that Gunvalson, Judge, and Beador were spotted filming a scene together that could or could not make the final edit of the show.

Vicki admitted to DailyPop back in August that she was initially upset with Judge and anyone else involved with her not coming back to the show. “The immediate thing I did was cry,” said the 60-year-old. She then asked herself, “What does [Judge] have that I don’t have?”

Meanwhile, Tamra is alleged to be pumped up to return. “Tamra is thrilled to come back to the show, especially after feeling the fan love from her stint on ‘Ultimate Girls Trip,’” claims the insider.

“She can’t wait to get back in the mix on ‘RHOC’ and see how she can shake up the dynamic,” continued the insider. At BravoCon in October, Gunvalson doubled down on not being bothered. “I wasn’t cast as a full-time ‘Housewife’ or even a ‘friend of.’ I filmed a scene with Tamra and Shannon which was fun and I miss filming. But nothing more.”

At least she knows…
