Former RHOC star Kelly Dodd is speaking out against Tamra Judge’s Vena CBD…she claims Tamra does not really own the business.
“This isn’t really her company, as far as the documents show. This is all in the public domain. They didn’t come up with the formula, they didn’t come up with the intellectual property, they didn’t come up with the distribution. They slapped their name on it and they bullsh-t people by saying that they’re founders and that this is their company,” Kelly said on her podcast alongside her husband, Rick Leventhal. “It’s not.”
“She claims to co founded a company.. she claims to be a lot of things. She’s a joke,” Kelly later added.
On Vena CBD’s website, Tamra claims the company was created by her and her husband, Eddie Judge, “to make high quality CBD accessible to everyone.” VENA – derived from “Vena Cava” – pays homage to the two largest veins in the human body that carry blood to the heart.
Tamra clapped back at Kelly on Twitter:
“Nothing like addressing a little crazy to wrap up the year, not to mention I just got out of surgery … Anyone that has any experience running a company is fully aware that LLC ownership does not equate to who is publicly listed. Most LLC use a registered agent so there is no personal information available publicly,” Tamra shared.
“I can assure you that I am in fact an owner of Vena. As every partner (retail and online) of Vena is already aware, Vena is a joint venture between Eddie and myself with Medterra CBD,” she continued. “To have someone go after our business that we have worked so hard at is disgusting. I highly recommend you be very careful.”
