The Real Housewives of Orange County‘s premiere gave us more than the usual friendship drama … Season 19 was the debut of Tamra Judge‘s new smile (among other cosmetic procedures).
On her podcast, Two T’s In a Pod, she told her co-host, Dolores Catania, why she keeps hearing that she looks “different.”
Dolo was feeling Tammy Sue on the premiere episode:
The Real Housewives of New Jersey star gushed at how fresh-faced Tamra appeared on Watch What Happens Live. “Oh, thank you. Well, it took a team, obviously,” joked the longest-running Real Housewife of any franchise.
“Everyone’s like, what? You look different. Even Andy said that. And I’m like, my hair is darker. I’m definitely thinner, which makes a difference, I think.”
“Then, new teeth.”
“That’s it, guys. No, no surgery.”
Tamra’s teeth:
Eddie Judge and Tamra traveled to Texas to get their smiles revamped at Smile Texas. If the name sounds familiar, it’s where Frank Catania and his wife, Brittany Mattessich, got their new smiles.”
Dr. Mackenzi Mcafee‑Dooley removed the temporary veneers and fitted new porcelain ones on both Tamra and Eddie.
“Great job, by the way,” commented Dolores. “Amazing.”
Tamra agreed. “It makes such a difference. I got them done, I think, in November.”
“They look amazing,” gushed Dolo. “And your face. You’ve lost weight. Your skin is very tight.”
Let’s not forget Tamra’s work from August 2024:
I’m confident Tamra meant ‘no new surgery’ on her podcast, since her followers know she got a brow lift last year.
“Taking you all along on my journey! I visited Dr. Donald Mowlds in Newport Beach – who works alongside Dr. Ambe – for a brow lift, CO2 laser, and a blue chemical peel.”
Tamra made a point to acknowledge the previous work she had done. “Seven years ago, I had a lower facelift but skipped the upper.” With years to reflect on her choice, she compared getting a partial facelift to “painting the house but forgetting the trim.”
