Tamra Judge is another "Real Housewives of Orange County" star whose property is being threatened by fire.
The reality star's Big Bear holiday home in California is reportedly in close proximity to the ongoing line fire started by an arsonist, and she appeared to be mourning its loss already.
Tamra Judge recently spent a significant amount of money on a remodeling project for the pad she purchased last year.
Tamra Judge Shout Outs Her Big Bear Home Amid Encroaching Fire
The 57-year-old uploaded a picture of her home interior on her Instagram story and wrote, "Be Safe Big Bear."
However, sources close to the situation have confirmed that evacuation has yet to commence in Tamra's neighborhood. The fire is very close, and only 14% has been contained.
According to In Touch, communities in the city have been mandated to evacuate as the fire continues to rage closer to their homes. Tamra has tried to stay on top of the situation, engaging her fans and followers on social media.
She posted a video on the earthquake that hit California, saying, "Did you feel that earthquake? I don't need any more natural disasters right now."
The San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department reportedly arrested the 34-year-old man responsible for starting the Line fire, and he is being held on $80,000 bond.
Tamra And Vicki Gunvalson Have Fire Issues In Common
The Blast reported that Gunvalson's $1.5 million home in Coto de Caza, California, is also close to the ongoing Airport Fire, and her property is in line of risk.
Gunvalson's three-bedroom, 4,620-square-foot pad is currently not in an evacuation zone.
Still, authorities have placed it under a voluntary evacuation category, which means Gunvalson may not need to evacuate her property yet.
Like the Line fire, the airport fire destroyed several homes, and authorities evacuated nearly 11,000 people.
Tamra And Gunvalson's Strained Friendship
Before the fire incidents, Tamra posted an emotional video pleading with Gunvalson to stop dropping think pieces about her family. The video was in response to Gunvalson's comments on Tamra's relationship with her estranged daughter. She said:
"I'm trying so hard not to listen to what Vicki had said about me and I just keep getting bombarded with it. I'm in just disbelief. In such disbelief, this woman would go so low. Do you know what it's like to lose a child? Do you know what it's like? It's the most painful thing in the world."
Tamra accused Gunvalson of always adding salt to her wounds and kicking her when she was down. She added, "You can have my spot on the show, you can have whatever you want. Just please leave my family alone."
Tamra's Mother Had A Witty Take On Her Daughter's Post-Surgery Face
Gunvalson is apparently not the only sharp-mouthed person around Tamra. Last week, the reality star posted screenshots of her mom's comments about her face.
The Blast reported that the funny exchange happened on the third day of her recovery, which also coincided with her 57th birthday celebration.
"Your face literally makes me want to throw up. It looks so painful, and you don't look like yourself," wrote Sandy Baker.
Tamra's mother added that her friends called to ask if Tamra had been in a motorcycle accident. Tamra found the comments hilarious and laughed them off in a short clip, 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."
Tamra Judge Updated Fans On Her Healing Process
The reality star quickly gave a health update following the post and shared that her pain level had reduced significantly, and she "only had one pain pill."
Tamra then clarified that her skin still had a long way to go as it was "still crispy. Little crispy around the edges." The influencer kept an open book with her fans throughout her plastic surgery procedure.
On day 1, Tamra explained to the fans that she visited Dr. Donald Mowlds in Newport Beach, who works with Dr. Ambe, "for a brow lift, a CO2 laser, and a blue chemical peel.
She explained that the new surgery was an upgrade to the lower facelift she had seven years ago and likened neglecting the upper part of her face back then to "painting the house but forgetting the trim."
