Once upon an earlier season of Real Housewives of Orange County, Tamra Judge, Vicki Gunvalson, and Shannon Beador were besties. They even called themselves the Tres Amigas. Realizing their fanbases needed more (and would pay), these three started taking their goofy on-air antics on the road. Then, just ahead of Season 15, Vicki and Tamra went on a pause, making Shannon an Uno Amigo on RHOC. Luckily for Tamra, her orange boomeranged back into her hands for Season 17, but her friendships with Vicki and Shannon began spiraling downwards, enough to see Vicki stating that Tamra now has a “black heart.”
Vicki thinks Tamra has a black heart for ditching The Tres Amigas
Vicki is still waiting on the return of her full-time orange. Yet, since she has beef with Tamra and is still close with Shannon, the producers wisely brought Vicki back for a pop-in during Season 18. Filming alongside Shannon, the Dos Amigas discussed their comedic road show, noting that Tamra had quit without notice. As to why Tammy Sue bounced, Shannon’s drinking was becoming an issue, and Tamra wanted no part of that.
“I’ve only had a very short convo with Tamra,” Shannon told Vicki this week, revealing that Tamra did not want to sit down and work things out with her former Amigas. Vicki hated this, quipping, “She has vinegar running through her veins and a black heart.”
