Tamra Judge Exposes Texts to Shannon Beador Amid Tres Amigas Fallout

Tamra Judge and Shannon Beador celebrate the season premiere of the Real Housewives of Orange County on WWHL.

Real Housewives of Orange County’s Tamra Judge is revealing her texts to Shannon Beador about canceling their Tres Amigas show following her DUI in September. Get all the tea!

Amid her ongoing feud with Shannon Beador and Vicki Gunvalson, Tamra Judge has revealed text messages that she sent to Shannon following her DUI in September.

On Tamra Judge and Teddi Mellencamp’s Two Ts in a Pod podcast, the Real Housewives of Orange County star shared her texts to former BFF Shannon Beador and revealed how Shannon’s DUI played a role in her decision to stop participating in the Tres Amigas live shows.

According to Tamra Judge, she sent a text message to Shannon in October 2023, about a month after Shannon’s arrest for DUI and hit and run in Newport Beach on September 16.

In the text, she wished Shannon well after her DUI while revealing that she wanted to put herself and their Tres Amigas live shows on pause while the mom of three healed mentally, physically, and emotionally following her brush with the law.

“I hope you are doing better physically. And mentally. I know that you are probably beating yourself up. I have thought long and hard about this. And I need to be honest with you. I don’t feel comfortable moving forward with the ‘Tres Amigas’ show next month,” Tamra read.

“The comments about you doing the show and me and Vicki supporting it are horrible. It’s not a good look for any of us, especially you, Shannon. Bravo has told me it’s not a good idea and we should postpone. It’s just too soon. I’m now getting messages and comments that I’m an alcoholic for continuing and supporting you with the show next month. I’m sorry, I just can’t move forward with the show,” Tamra continued.

Despite Tamra’s objections, she was forced to perform in two shows with the Tres Amigas due to contractual obligations. However, after completing those two shows, Tamra thought it was best to bow out of the group for good.

Tamra also notes that learning about Vicki and Shannon talking behind her back also influenced her decision to call it quits with the Tres Amigas.

Earlier this month, Tamra accused Shannon and Vicki of being “insanely jealous” of her success outside of the Tres Amigas.

“They are so insanely jealous of my success. Vicki always wants to rip you down, just like she wants to rip you down because you’re close to me; she wants to rip Caeden down ‘cause he’s close to me. I’m tired of it,” Tamra told her co-host Teddi Mellencamp.

As AllAboutTRH previously reported, the feud between Tamra, Shannon, and Vicki became public knowledge when the OG of the OC and Shannon announced their comedy tour, and Tamra was nowhere to be mentioned.

Tamra revealed that she was too busy to participate in the tour and claimed that she decided to back out after learning that Vicki and Shannon were talking about her behind her back.

Since then, Tamra and Vicki have been taking shots at each other on social media and in the press. As for Shannon, she’s remained silent on the drama, but it’s sure to play out on season 18 of RHOC, which is currently in production.

The Real Housewives of Orange County will return for season 18 in mid-to-late 2024.

There isn't a Tres Amigas with the Tres of them. I loved watching them together - always so much fun. Shannon made a terrible and stupid mistake (where luckily no one was hurt/killed - including Archie). But it was just that - a mistake. Lord knows Tamra has made plenty of her own. So, are you backing out because of how the public may view you, or is there really something else going on???

So Tamra attacks and attacks via text,…Shannon says nothing, Tamra sides against them, takes the name of the show, rebrands..gosh what a loyal friend, ha ha. Let’s see Tamra has back -stabbed Jen, Shannon, Vicki, Heather (oh, good now, wait 5 minutes), Gretchen, Kelly, and basically all past OC cast members. Emily and Gina are ok with her for now, until not. Tamra used Vicki to buddy, buddy with her on UGT to get back on the OC. I guarantee a billion dollars when Andy and Bravo asked Tamra who she recommended to bring back to the OC, she said 100% No to Vicki because she didn’t want to share the spotlight with her(and publicly she says yes before to keep her Vicki friendship, while she recruited other people to the show. ) Tamra is so easy to Read! She is not fooling anyone. Vicki and Shannon have to see by now Tamra just used them to get back on the OC show and then threw them away! That is what she does. Now she doesn’t need them so she is moving on.

Tamra can claim all she wants that she backed out because of Shannon's alcoholism, but the real truth is the second reason she gives...Vicki and Shannon turned against her and she was angry. The fact she has done the same to so many others doesn't seem to register in Tamra's mind.

Let Shannon bring Vicki on RHOC and TamRat can have a friend TeddiBORE. I'll bring the popcorn and watch the OGs tear each other apart ON CAMERA. Sorry the article back and forth is just NBCSeen that already. Rinse Repeat Repetitive. Do it on the show, PAID co-workers!

Tamra made that text to Shannon all about herself. Wow. Kicked Shannon while she was already down for the count. Shamefully handled.
