After their major fallout this season, Real Housewives of Orange County star Shannon Beador says she will never be friends with former bestie Tamra Judge again.
Tamra turned against her before filming began on the current season and has spent all of her time on air gossiping about Shannon.
“I don’t [think we’ll be friends again] because I now can look back and see pretty much every season that I’ve been in with Tamra, there’s always an issue that she has with me,” Shannon told Us Weekly. “Either I did something or didn’t do something, and it’s OK, we don’t need to be friends then. She says she walks on eggshells around me. I’m sorry that you feel that way, but I walked on eggshells around her.”
Shannon says she’s tired of having to prove that she is a good friend to Tamra and that she doesn’t think it is healthy.
Tamra has also fallen out with another of her former best friends, Vicki Gunvalson, who says that even though she forgives Tamra for their fallout, she will be keeping her distance from her.
Shannon played this first cast event so smart: instantly neutralising Gina with an apology, then gagging Alexis bringing up the lawsuit Alexis’s ex brought against Shannon and Tamra, when Alexis expected a fight about John. Shan was playing 3D chess #RHOC pic.twitter.com/Wi7l641Kg8

Tamra also turned against Jennifer Pedranti, a friend she invited onto the show before going off on her about her chosen life partner and financial situation.
It seems Tamra does not keep her close friends for long.
Shannon also addressed Tamra’s close friendship with Alexis Bellino who is now dating her ex-boyfriend, John Janssen.
“I said that she had a big ego, which got back to her, and yes, she does. And I’ve said, ‘Well, you do. Yeah, and?’” Shannon told Us. “I was upset with her when John first met Alexis that she was commenting on Alexis’ photos. It’s like, ‘What are you doing? What are you doing?’ And so now they’re big buddies. None of it makes sense except that maybe it’s just a little bit of overproduction and too much story-focused.”
