Gretchen Rossi is satisfied that the truth is out about Tamra Judge. After the November 5 episode of Real Housewives of Orange County aired on Bravo, the reality star slammed Tamra, 52, on Instagram for her years of “lies, manipulation, false perceptions, and the friendships she has purposely torn apart.” During the episode, the castmates expressed their concerns with Tamra over dinner.
Kelly Dodd shared a mirror picture on Instagram on November 5 before the reality show aired. “I want to hear your thoughts on tonight’s episode. It’s going to be good@bravotv 9/8c. #rhoc,” she captioned the shot of her, Braunwyn Windham-Burke and Shannon Beador.
In the comments section, Gretchen left a lengthy message regarding Tamra’s behavior. “I haven’t watched this season thus far, but many fans DM’d me telling me I had to watch tonight's episode because everything I have said for years about Tamra finally comes to a head,” she revealed. “It was nice to actually see everyone in the cast recognize what this woman has done for years, all the lies, manipulation, false perceptions, and the friendships she has purposely torn apart etc."
Gretchen continued, “Too bad it doesn’t last and she is able to spew her poison once again and manipulate women into believing it’s not her manipulating everything. Proud of you for standing up and speaking your truth about her, even though it’s scary to do because of how vindictive she is. I’m just so happy to be away from it anymore.”
Kelly, 44, replied to her lengthy comment, as she realized that Gretchen was right about Tamra’s two-faced nature. “You told me and Mom did as well...please forgive me,” she begged of her castmate. “Gretchen please forgive me.”

Gretchen responded, “It’s all good, I understand why you tried with her. I did it too because sometimes it feels easier to just be friends with her then to deal with her bs, but she eventually and always will do what she does (it’s been her pattern for 14 yrs) She has hurt so many with her vicious ways, lies, and manipulation. She gets rewarded for that behavior with her paycheck, so sadly it will never stop.”
Fans also responded to Gretchen’s comment. One expressed sympathy for Gina Kirschenheiter. “I kind of feel bad for Gina because she doesn't see the real Tamra. Eventually her eyes will be wide open, it's just a matter of time,” they wrote. “Even though I truly missed seeing on #RHOC, I am glad that you are away from negativity.” Gretchen replied, “Yeah I do too, it’s sad when Tamra gets a hold of the innocent ones that are going through a tough time and she just prances on them like a lion on its prey. Sadly she will eventually get hurt like we all have by her manipulation.”
Another asked, “What, so it's not staged nonsense for the cameras?” to which the housewife responded, “No, sadly it’s truly who Tamra is.” Real Housewives of Orange County airs on Tuesdays at 9 p.m. on Bravo.
