Tamra Judge took to Instagram to tease her contentious relationship with Gretchen Rossi, who is returning to Real Housewives of Orange County as a ‘friend of.’

You’re On Your Own, Kid:

The controversial RHOC star posted a photo of herself in full glam with the caption, “I guess it’s time to dust off those friendship bracelets … my bestie’s back 😉🍊.”

Never forget, Tamra and Gretchen have had issues since Gretchen joined the show in season 4 just after Tamra joined the cast in season 3.

Tamra and Gretchen’s history, in a nutshell:

Tamra came on to the 3rd season of RHOC as the self-proclaimed ‘hottest housewife.’ On season 4, a hot new bombshell entered the villa … Gretchen Rossi. Instantly, Tammy Sue was activated.

Gretchen was in a loving relationship with an older gentleman who ended up passing away during her tenure as a Real Housewife. After she mourned, she started dating Slade Smiley. Tamra judged, criticized, and insulted Gretchen every step of the way.

Tamra and Gretchen cut ties after the former left the show after season 8.

Gretchen entered the chat during season 18 regarding how Tamra treats people:

To make matters even more complicated between Gretchen and Tamra, Gretchen is very friendly with Jennifer Pedranti, who Tamra recently targeted. In fact, during RHOC’s 18th season, Gretchen weighed in to defend her and Ryan Boyajian against Tammy Sue.

Gretchen thinks “It’s sad” Tamra has gotten away with “harming” so many people for years. “It seems like she can never be loyal to anyone … especially her so called friends.”

She continued, “I believe the only thing she has ever been loyal to is her paycheck.”

“I have stayed silent for the last several years, but these [FBI] remarks about Ryan really triggered me.”

Tamra “makes categorically false statements about him, and then when he finally stands up for himself (to protect his livelihood and reputation) she calls him a ‘Little Bitch!’ It’s such a BS double standard.”

Gretchen continued, “She can’t go after the men and not expect them to speak up. She did this all the time to Slade and now she is doing the exact same thing to Ryan. Oh, and try speaking the actual truth about her (God forbid you do that) because – from my experience – she will go on a witch hunt to try and destroy you.”

“In my opinion, she is evil, manipulative, and conniving. I saw exactly who she was back then and was never afraid to call her out. It seems the audience is finally realizing what I always knew about her.”

What do you hope to get from Tamra and Gretchen on season 19 of RHOC? Sound off below.
