Tamra Judge took aim at Jennifer Aydin in the comments section of an Instagram post after the Real Housewives of New Jersey cast member slammed her for being “too mean” amid her ongoing drama with Vicki Gunvalson.
After sharing a number of emotional videos in which she begged Vicki, 62, to stop talking about her family, including her estranged daughter, Sidney Barney, the 57-year-old Real Housewives of Orange County star was shaded by Jennifer, 47, who suggested Tamra deserved what she got from her former friend.
“You can’t go after people the way she does and then not expect people to retaliate,” Jennifer had written, as seen in a post shared by Taste of Reality on Instagram. “People will take what they think your weakness is and hit you where it hurts.”
As RHOC fans may have seen, Vicki suggested that Tamra’s tension with Sidney was the result of her refusal to leave the show and salvage their relationship. She even mentioned that Tamra didn’t seem to care about her dynamic with her oldest child.
In response to Jennifer weighing in on the matter, Tamra mentioned that Jennifer had attempted to get bloggers to bash her with negative stories — and noted that she’s seen the DMs that prove it.
“Sweetie you are the queen of mean. Trying to get bloggers to write stories about me and your cast members is pretty low. I’ve seen the [DMs]. I don’t even know you, I’m not on your cast … who does that?” she asked.
Meanwhile, on Jennifer’s Instagram Story, she made it clear that was unbothered by the drama, sharing screenshots from The Express Tribune in which Tamra said she didn’t think Jennifer would be asked back to RHONJ and naming her as the only RHONJ cast member she didn’t like.
Jennifer also included a screenshot of Tamra labeling her as “disgusting” and “obnoxious,” noting that the comments were shared on August 17.
Also on August 17, Jennifer was enjoying a vacation in Turkey with friends and husband Bill Aydin.
As fans may have heard, Jennifer has been accused on several occasions of working with bloggers to put out negative stories about her co-stars, including Danielle Cabral, 39. And during an episode of Watch What Happens Live earlier this year, she suggested that she wasn’t the only one.
“I just want you to know that all bloggers out there start out as fans and we are very good to our fans and some get more invested than others. Is there a very big lesson in here? Absolutely,” Jennifer told Andy Cohen, 56. “Don’t talk to anybody. Don’t talk to bloggers. Don’t be so candid and naive and think you’re being nice to the fan in an attempt to not make them not like you and really just say, I’m not dealing with you anymore.”
“[But] nobody is innocent here. Everybody talks to bloggers, Andy. Everybody talks,” she continued. “Mine is just being put on blast. But I will say, theirs is being put on blast too. It’s just too hard to follow, and who cares at this point?”
