Bethenny Frankel Defends Teresa Giudice Against Tamra Judge’s Attacks

Bravolebs Teresa Giudice and Bethenny Frankel

Bethenny Frankel is coming to Teresa Giudice’s defense after Tamra Judge dubbed the RHONJ OG the “most overrated housewife” on Bravo.

During a recent episode of Bethenny Frankel’s ReWives podcast, the Real Housewives of New York alum called out Tamra Judge for naming Teresa Giudice the “most overrated housewife” while appearing on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen.

The Real Housewives of Orange County star appeared on the June 7th episode of Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, where she played a game of “Truth, or Tamra Gets Naked Wasted.”

Andy Cohen asked Tamra to name “the most overrated Housewife of all time,” and the longtime Bravoleb didn’t hold back.

Teresa [Giudice],” Tamra quipped, which surprised Andy. Tamra did not elaborate on her answer. However, it’s no secret that Tamra and Teresa have been beefing in recent months.

However, it seems that Bethenny disagrees with Tamra’s take.

According to Bethenny, Teresa and her husband, Louie Ruelas, are “accurately rated” and, in fact, are not “overrated.”

“Teresa provides so much drama,” the Skinnygirl mogul explained. “The reason I don’t like that Tamra did that on Watch What Happens Live – and I love Tamra – is because she’s in a current argument.”

She continued, “She’s in a current argument, so someone’s like, ‘Who’s the most overrated housewife?’ She’s like, ‘Teresa’ because she currently doesn’t like her.”

“They’re currently in a squabble,” Bethenny added.“But, you don’t say something that’s not true during a squabble.”

“Overrated housewife?!?!” Bethenny pondered aloud before noting, “There are so many boring, filler housewives that present and do nothing. Teresa is not one of them.”

Speaking of the drama between Teresa and Tamra started when Tamra made some comments about Teresa Giudice’s husband, Louie Ruelas, on her Two T’s in a Pod podcast. During one podcast episode in April, Tamra compared Louie to Vicki Gunvalon‘s cancer-scamming ex-boyfriend Brooks Ayers. Naturally, Teresa was pissed. Later that month, Teresa Giudice slammed Tamra for having Caroline Manzo on her Two T’s in a Pod podcast, considering the RHONJ alum’s current drama with Tamra’s good friend Brandi Glanville.

Production for season 14 of Real Housewives of New Jersey will start in late August.

There's a flaw in her reasoning. Sure there are boring Housewives, but they don't have a lot of fans. IOW, they are not highly rated. So you have to choose from the more talked about Housewives with the larger followings when you're picking most overrated, which is usually the OGs and those with the most outrageous personalities. Tamra was saying Teresa is more popular than she deserves to be. She's probably more unpopular than she is popular, but that doesn't negate the fact that she has a lot of fans. I do think she's right that Tammy said it because they are feuding, though.

Tamra is a hater. She should focus on her children. Ryan is ludacris and her daughter doesnt want anything to do with her.

OK I'll bite ... why is Ryan ludacris?
L G June 28, 2023 - 5:59 pm
Ryan is ludicrous because he's a racist, homophobic, right wing nut. His ex accused him of domestic abuse as well. So he's both ludicrous and dangerous.

Oh!~ You don't say! Have any receipts for all that? Didn't think so. If any of that were true, Bravo/NBC Universal and certainly Asswipe Cohen, would not have him on the show. He's Conservative and was outspoken about 2nd Amendment, the plannedemic, and wants our borders enforced, just like every other country on the planet does.

Snap! You can't reason with some sheeple idiots, they aren't worth the energy.

Hey girlfriend, fancy meeting you here slumming as well. You are correct, but sometimes it's fun watching them unravel ?.

Oops. I upvoted you by mistake, thinking you were a different poster for a second. So the downvote is only correcting that mistake. I normally don't downvote, even to blatant idiocy such as is being spewed by you and that other person. So my apologies if it made you think I care.

Nothing wrong with downvoting; it's merely indicating that you disagree with a particular post; however, I do use it sparingly. Seems to petty.
L G June 28, 2023 - 8:14 pm
I agree. It is petty and it's sort of cowardly. One should have the guts to speak out rather than just downvote. Eh. Maybe some people just don't have the time.

Slumming it is right?

Oh boy, do I ever have receipts. Domestic abuse; https://people.com/tv/ryan-vieth-son-of-real-housewife-tamra-judge-arrested-for-domestic-violence/ Hatred of transpeople; “Hopefully this guy goes on a rampage and kills whatever transgendered f**k head took him to court. Oops did I just say that,” wrote Vieth, and he then added, “This country needs to kill off this f**kery bulls**t.” Quoth Ryan on IG. https://celebrityinsider.org/tamra-judges-son-ryan-vieth-goes-on-transphobic-rant-and-the-rhoc-star-seemingly-agrees-237273/ Also; https://people.com/tv/tamra-judge-speaks-out-about-son-transgender-comments/ Racism; "One month after trashing his ex online, the by-proxy Bravolebrity got grimy on the Gram in the comments section of a post Snoop Dogg made about police brutality. Vieth chimed in to show support for a commenter who wrote that Snoop's "people [are] straight up f***ing savages with no f***s to give because their ancestors were slaves."

The fact that you never do research and aren't into facts is confirmed by your use of the term "plannedemic". Smh.

I would not deny that he's extreme, but the absurdity of the times calls for extreme measures. So please let's not clutch our pearls in faux outrage. Let's just agree that there is plenty of lunacy all around.
L G June 28, 2023 - 8:11 pm
Are you really justifying racial hatred and hatred of transpeople based on vague remarks about "the absurdity of the times"? What does that mean? That if we don't have the Ryans of this world spewing uneducated crap on IG, which is hardly "extreme measures" anyway, it's actually doing nothing and just mouthing off, then the world is lost? You can't be serious. I wasn't pearl-clutching. I was answering your question. You're welcome.
Snarky Enigma June 28, 2023 - 11:57 pm
I think Ryan is extreme, no doubt. He lacks the gravitas (and I assume the education) to get his point out intelligently. It's easy to accuse men of abusive when oftentimes the woman is a scrapper herself (and Annie Oakley was no wallflower). We obviously disagree politically, but I guess this isn't the place to voice our viewpoints, but hey you are always welcome to visit my site and fire off without the threat of being censored or banned.
