Tamra Judge called out Gretchen Rossi during a series of appearances at BravoCon this past weekend.
In addition to accusing her Real Housewives of Orange County castmate of “lying,” “making up rumors,” and having a hatred toward the community, Tamra, 58, said that Gretchen, 47, was trying to play nice to “save her job,” reacted to Jennifer Lawrence, 35, slamming her as “toxic,” and revealed the biggest misconceptions fans have of her.
During an interview with Chanel Ayan, 47, for Bravo, Tamra reacted to Gretchen and Jennifer Pedranti, 48, saying they love her and would like to move forward.
“I can do that, but I don’t know that Gretchen can do that. I think Jen has it in her, but I don’t think — well, Gretchen’s still fighting about things from 15 years ago that I have no interest in. And when you’re lying and making up rumors and having this hatred toward the community, I can’t stand for it,” Tamra replied.
Then, when she was asked about Gretchen saying they’d be okay, Tamra said they “will not.”
“She wants to save her job,” she explained. “There’s no room in my life for her — not for somebody with her beliefs.”
During an interview with Access Hollywood’s Housewives Nightcap, Tamra had stern words for Jennifer.
“You’re f*cking toxic,” she stated. “I’m actually one of the most successful housewives on my cast, so I’m doing something right, Jennifer Lawrence.”
“It was unfortunate that she said that,” Tamra continued. “I feel like those are really strong words coming from … I always looked up to her. And I just think, like, you don’t know me. I’m on a reality show, and there’s a lot that you don’t know. And I’m sorry you feel that way.”
Tamra also spoke to Page Six’s Virtual Reali-Tea about Gretchen, saying they were “two people that cannot be in the same room.”
“I tried to move on with her. The whole half of the season, I tried to move on, and it was one story and lie about me after another, and I just don’t feel like there’s any room on the show for somebody like that. I think that you have to be open and honest and not blame other things on other people or create lies. And I just, it’s not for me,” she explained.
Also at BravoCon, Tamra admitted there were so “many misconceptions” about her.
“I think people think that I’m just this big villain that doesn’t have a heart, and I do. I promise you. There’s stories out there that my children don’t speak to me. No, they do. We’re all good. And I think that’s really hard, especially when the kids are brought into things. Like, don’t f*cking talk about my kids. Okay? Don’t do that,” she declared.
“And just the whole, ‘She’s the villain. Stir the pot.’ Yes, on the show, I abso-f*cking-lutely am. And I do my job and I take it very serious,” she added. “[And] I don’t make up stories. I don’t lie.”
The Real Housewives of Orange County season 19 reunion concludes on Thursday, November 20, at 8/7c on Bravo.
Salley Carson is “proudly single” in the new season of Southern Charm Season 11. But, at one point, Salley says she had a very brief fling with The McBee Dynasty: Real American Cowboys‘ Steven McBee Jr., following his breakup from Calah Jackson.
Salley spoke with Us Weekly during BravoCon 2025 on Saturday, Nov. 15, where she revealed that she “went and visited” Steven Jr. in Missouri before he began his relationship with Allie Eklund. When asked if it was “a thing” between them, Salley said, “It was like, a second. No, not like that. I mean, kind of like that.”
She continued, admitting that she and Steven Jr. just weren’t the right fit for each other. “I think I vibed with like, the brothers and the rest of the family more than I did him,” she added. “Our personalities weren’t…he’s a great guy, he’s amazing, but our personalities didn’t match.”
This led to a slightly “weird run-in” with the McBee brothers at BravoCon. “It was just a little awkward,” she noted to the publication.
Salley’s love life will be a hot topic on Southern Charm Season 11 when she pursues a newly single Craig Conover. She teased this at BravoCon on Sunday, Nov. 16, during the It’s All About to Go South panel, as seen in the video above.
“You know, I think a lot goes down and I think everyone’s going to be very surprised,” she admitted. “I, obviously, was very attracted to Craig. I mean, look at him. But throughout the summer, I definitely saw some different sides to Craig. Some that I love, and some that I didn’t love so much. But yeah, I think there’s a lot that happens that people are going to be shocked by.”
Steven, on the other hand, has been sharing a look inside his relationship with his new girlfriend, Allie, a social media influencer. The couple went public with their relationship earlier this month, taking to Instagram on Nov. 3, where they posted a series of photos together. “Never been so certain,” Steven wrote in the caption of the post.
The couple has continued to share a look inside their relationshoip. Steven posted a photo of Allie where he revealed that he was having “dinner with a view” while Allie revealed that she was having “business meetings every morning” with her “man” at the McBee farm in Gallatin, Missouri.
