Tamra Judge And Vicki Gunvalson Deny Being Jealous Of Meghan Edmonds For Not Having To Work


Monday night’s episode of The Real Housewives of Orange County showed Vicki Gunvalson grilling newcomer Meghan King Edmonds during the group’s vacation in Tahiti over her decision to not work. Tamra Judge, who was live-tweeting as the episode aired, joked about Meghan being a gold digger.

When someone tweeted that it sounds as if Tamra and Vicki are jealous of women like Meghan who don’t have to work, Tamra, who runs her own gym with her husband, Eddie Judge, and also works in real estate, replied that she works because she loves it.

Vicki chimed in on the conversation to back up Tamra’s statement.

When another person wondered if Tamra loves to go to work at her gym because she’s actually scared of Eddie cheating on her, Tamra lashed out.

Tamra later added that she married well too.

Tamra also said that she doesn’t actually think that Meghan is a gold digger.

When the group stopped by a jewelry store because Tamra Judge had to use its restroom, the women got into a discussion about whether they have to ask their husbands before making big purchases. Vicki Gunvalson, who has long prided herself on running a successful insurance company and being a financially independent woman, commented that stay-at-home mom Shannon Beador doesn’t work so whatever money she uses is her husband’s. Meghan, also a stay-at-home mom, quickly chimed in that the money is shared and that Shannon does work as a mother. Vicki replied that she’s not saying that being a mom is not an important job, but that it’s not a job that earns a paycheck. If she were in their shoes, she would definitely ask the husband before making big purchases.

During the group’s lunch, Vicki questioned Meghan over her decision to quit her job selling medical equipment shortly after meeting Jim Edmonds, a former professional baseball player who is currently a broadcaster for Fox Sports Midwest. Meghan replied that her job was not conducive to their relationship because of all the traveling. Vicki, clearly not convinced, muttered to nearby Lizzie Rovsek that she wouldn’t leave a job for a new relationship. In a solo interview, Vicki teased that Meghan may regret her decision to leave her career for Jim.

“I don’t think it was a good idea for Meghan to quit her job. What’s Meghan going to do when Jim moves on to wife number 4? It’s very obvious Jim Edmonds has money. Meghan doesn’t work. What does she do to bring in some money? Looks like she goes to her husband for it. “

This isn’t the first time that Vicki Gunvalson and Meghan King Edmonds have butted heads over an issue on The Real Housewives of Orange County. As the Inquisitr previously reported, the two argued over Meghan questioning whether Vicki’s boyfriend, Brooks Ayers, really has cancer.
