Tamra Judge isn't the only one brave enough to tell the truth as it is, and she recently got a healthy dose of brutal honesty from her mother.
The "Real Housewives of Orange County" star was hilariously roasted by her mom, Sandy Baker. The matriarch called out her daughter's cosmetic procedure, trolling the ugly side of her healing process.
The update marked the latest in Tamra Judge's recovery series, a refreshingly honest ride she began with fans following her recent trip to the plastic surgeon's office.
Tamra Judge's Mom Is Her Biggest Critic
Day three of Judge's post-surgery update fell on her 57th birthday, and she marked the occasion on Instagram with screenshots of her mother's reaction to her cosmetic procedure. The first text message read:
"Your face literally makes me want to throw up. It looks so painful [sic], and you don't look like yourself."
"One of my friends called and asked if you had been in a motorcycle accident," Baker added in a separate text. Judge wasn't offended by her words and laughed it off in a selfie video from bed, saying:
"I literally can't stop laughing about my mom's text message to me. You guys know where I get my empathy from, right? I can't. She's too much."
The roasting didn't end there, with Judge sharing more of their text exchange on her Story. Baker shared that one of her friends saw the update and allegedly claimed her daughter looked "homeless" with a "dirty" face.
Fans Applaud Judge's Mom's Take On Her Face
The reality TV star's post received positive responses from fans, with many loving her mother's brutal honesty. "I thought you were sharing internet troll [messages] until you said, mum!" Someone noted with laughing emojis.
"Mom ain't never lied. I'm glad she said rather than us," another supporter echoed while a third chimed: "That does look so painful and uncomfortable. I know I could never. I'm too big of a baby with pain."
Former "RHOC" star Meghan King added, "Omg Tamra, I'm dead after seeing her text, and omg I couldn't agree more you're drop-dead gorgeous, but atm you're more the 'dead' part."
The positive comments continued, with fans applauding Judge's honesty. One IG user praised her, claiming, "Anyone can post a beautiful after pic, but it takes some real authenticity to take someone along the entire journey. Respect."
The Bravolebrity Feels Better But Still 'Crispy'
Besides sharing her mother's hilarious take on her healing process, Judge updated fans on how she was fairing. She explained that day three was significantly better because she "only had one pain pill."
Although the pain had improved, Judge pulled down the neck of her tee to show that her skin was still far from being healed. "Still crispy. Little crispy around the edges," she said, promising to continue the updates tomorrow.
Judge also corrected a previous update video she shared and improperly tagged as day three of her post-surgery recovery series. At the time the post dropped, The Blast reported the 57-year-old noted she still had some swelling on her face, saying:
"Okay, guys, this is day 3. It is supposed to be the worst ofit when it comes to swelling. The swelling is from the CO2 Laser. You can see it is all the way down to my chest."
What Cosmetic Procedures Did Judge Get?

Judge has been open about her cosmetic procedure right off the bat, informing fans about her surgery from day one. In an Instagram post, she revealed:
"[She] visited Dr. Donald Mowlds in Newport Beach, who works alongside Dr. Ambe, for a brow lift, CO2 laser, and a blue chemical peel."
The Bravolebrity explained she needed the touch-up procedures after getting a lower facelift seven years ago. But she skipped the upper part of her face and compared the incident to "painting the house but forgetting the trim."

Ahead of the season 17 premiere of "RHOC" in 2023, a snippet of Tamra's return to the show captured her lamenting about her living situation. She, her husband, Eddie Judge, and her mom lived together in the couple's Ladera home.
Tamra was worried her mother's intimate life would affect her teenage daughter, stressing in the confessional: "I don't need any sexual noises coming from my 70-year-old mom into my 17-year-old daughter's ears."
However, her mom might not be the only problem in the house. BravoTV reported that when a producer asked if Baker was a "screamer," the reality TV star quipped: "Like mother like daughter."
Tamra Judge and her mother are certainly two peas in a pod. Will Sandy Baker have more hilarious quips for her daughter before her face heals?
