Tamra Judge and Shannon Beador’s Feud Explodes Again in ‘RHOC’ Sneak Peek (Exclusive)
The drama surrounding The Real Housewives of Orange County’s cast trip to London continues to be nothing short of bonkers.
In Us Weekly’s exclusive sneak peek of the Thursday, October 17, episode of the Bravo series, Tamra Judge and Shannon Beador find themselves having a war of words over Alexis Bellino.
“I talked to Gina [Kirschenheiter] about that text that I found from 2018 where Alexis said, ‘We are suing you and Tamra. … You will hear from our attorney,’” Shannon explains. “I was surprised that when I sent you that, you didn’t tell anybody in the group, like, ‘Wow! Alexis did actually start the suit.’”
Tamra tries to share her reasoning by explaining, “That’s between you and her.”
Not every cast member, however, is buying her defense.
“Honestly, I’m very confused why Tamra and Heather [Dubrow] are consistently Team Alexis,” Emily Simpson says in a confessional interview. “They give her a free pass on everything while they hold Shannon to the fire on everything.”
As Jennifer Pedranti and Katie Ginella listen in to the discussion, Shannon delivers a request to her former friend. “You seem to just want to point out that I lie or want to point out that I do this,” she tells Tamra. “Please stop talking about me.”
Tamra replies, “OK, and you stop talking about me.”
Name calling ensues before the “Two T’s in a Pod” podcast cohost puts her hand in Shannon’s face. Before fighting back, Shannon heads to the bathroom to try and gather her emotions.
“I don’t know what Tamra’s motivations are, but I know for certain one of her plans is to ruin this trip,” Shannon declares in a confessional interview. “Tamra’s main goal is — it’s obvious — to hurt me.”
During last week’s episode, the cast arrived in London to help celebrate Shannon’s 60th birthday. The birthday girl did not invite Alexis after her fiance, John Janssen, sued Shannon for money that he allegedly loaned her for a facelift during their relationship.
Shannon and John dated on and off from 2019 to 2023. At the time of the breakup, Shannon told People she was “blindsided.” John, however, explained that the split involved “two really good people who couldn’t make it work.”
After John moved on with Alexis, Shannon reacted to his public behavior.
“I don’t know what’s in John’s head because the last conversation I had with him, he said, ‘I am breaking ties with you because you’ve ruined my life and my family’s by being so public,’” Shannon exclusively recalled to Us in July. “And six weeks later, he is doing Oscar parties and red carpet interviews. OK, Mr. Private.”
The Real Housewives of Orange County airs on Bravo Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET. Episodes are available to stream the next day on Peacock.
