Vicki Gunvalson reveals she feels for Jennifer Pedranti as the RHOC cast goes after her boyfriend, Ryan Boyajian.
On this week’s episode of RHOC, Tamra Judge slammed Jennifer Pedranti for leaving her 18-year marriage to date “player” Ryan Pedranti.
“You ruined your whole family!” Tamra shouted during a group lunch with Jennifer and the rest of the RHOC cast. Tamra claims that Ryan hooked up with another woman while he and Jennifer were on a break.
Jennifer screamed back, “I didn’t ruin my family! How f–king dare you!”
“You left for a player! You’re not the only person he f–ked at my gym,” Tamra went on to claim.
“If you need my s–t to air to make you more f–king relevant, good for f–king you,” Jennifer shouted back at Tamra. “They f–ked each other. Do you know what that’s like? It’s like a f–king knife in my heart.”
Tamra then insisted she didn’t want to see Jennifer “get hurt.”
“I don’t like you with him,” Tamra admitted. “I’m sorry, and it’s hard for me to hold back.”
After Wednesday’s episode of RHOC aired, Vicki Gunvalson, Shannon Beador, and Tamra appeared on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen.
On Wednesday’s episode of Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, Andy Cohen asked Vicki Gunvalson about feeling like she was identifying with Jennifer in tonight’s episode of RHOC.
“You said that you, I you were identifying with Jen tonight?” Andy asked.
The OG of the OC admitted that she did feel for Jennifer as everyone, including Tamra, was dumping on her boyfriend.
“Absolutely. Because everybody was telling me how bad Brooks [Ayers] was, and I didn’t wanna believe it because I loved him. I wanted our relationship to work,” the RHOC OG explained.
“But was I right?” Tamra interjected, to which Vicki replied, “Well, you were right, but I had to find it out myself with the help of Bravo and some other cast members.”
The RHOC OG dated her infamous cancer-faking ex-boyfriend Brooks Ayers for four years before splitting in August 2015. Tamra was not a fan of Brooks. She believed he was love-bombing Vicki and was trying to control her. Tamra told Vicki about her concerns, and as a result, their relationship fell apart. Vicki’s relationship with her daughter Brianna Culberson was on rocky ground for many years due to her continuing to date Brooks.
During season 10 of RHOC, Meghan King Edmonds spent the entire season doubting and questioning Brooks Ayers’ cancer. Ultimately, Meghan proved that Brooks’ cancer claims were complete BS by doing a whole lot of detective work.
While Brooks initially insisted that he did have non-Hodgkins lymphoma, he later apologized for faking his City of Hope cancer documents.
The scandal ultimately forced Vicki to split with Brooks. However, their relationship seemed to be doomed from day one. Briana has alleged that Brooks was abusive towards Vicki and manipulated her in various ways to have access to her very luxurious life.
The Real Housewives of Orange County airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. on Bravo.
