Tamra Judge On Devastating Tragedy: How She’s Coping After Sudden Death Of Close Friend


Tamra Judge has been on The Real Housewives of Orange County for years, and she has shared the good, the bad, and the ugly. She has shared the wedding to her husband, Eddie Judge, and their romantic engagement while traveling. Tamra opened up about her painful divorce and her suicide attempt when she was younger. And Judge recently opened up about her custody issues in regards to her daughter and how she felt completely shut out by her ex-husband. However, Judge is also sharing things on social media that have nothing to do with the show itself.

According to a new Instagram post, Tamra Judge is now revealing that she has recently learned that one of her best friends just lost her husband. This friend isn’t linked to the show, and her post proves that these stars deal with a lot more than just drama from The Real Housewives of Orange County. On Instagram, Tamra opened up about the devastating loss, and she’s clearly shocked to be going through this right now.

“My dearest friend Kim I love so much and my heart is breaking for you. We’ve known each other since preschool and in our eyes we are sisters. There is No one in this world like you / like us. Our friendship has lasted 46 years and we joke we will be those ladies in the nursing home flashing people with a glass of wine in our hand. I’m sorry I’m not there with you right now but I will be soon to hold your hand and wipe away the tears. We did everything together and I won’t let you do this without me. May your sweet loving husband RIP and may God comfort your family. Please say a prayer for my friend. #absolutlyheartbreaking,” Tamra Judge revealed in her Instagram post.

Of course, Tamra may see her life a bit differently after she divorced her ex-husband, Simon Barney, and became estranged from her daughter, Sidney. Tamra may be learning that life is short, and when someone close to you dies, you are reminded that you only have so much time left.

Of course, Judge has dealt with rumors about her husband just last year. Her former best friend, Vicki Gunvalson, had been involved with rumors in regard to Eddie’s sexuality. Apparently, people were convinced that Eddie was gay and had been sleeping around with men. This is something that is rumored to be surfacing once again on the upcoming season of The Real Housewives of Orange County.

At the end of the previous season, Tamra Judge hinted that she was done with Vicki. She didn’t see her as a real friend. Maybe Judge wanted to spend more time with her real friends, including Shannon Beador, and her friend outside of the show, who just lost her husband. Rather than waste time on petty drama, Judge may have chosen to focus on important friendships. And yet both ladies are rumored to be returning to The Real Housewives of Orange County and going on cast trips together.

It will be interesting to see how things come together on the upcoming season. Maybe Judge’s religious beliefs will play a role in whether she forgives Vicki for her behavior. But one can imagine that her husband Eddie wants nothing to do with this friendship since the rumors are about him and his supposed sexuality.

What do you think of Tamra Judge’s heartbreaking post about her friend’s loss? Do you think this will make her rethink her friendships on The Real Housewives of Orange County?
