While only episode 14 of season 17 of The Real Housewives of Orange County (RHOC) has been aired so far, news of the reunion has been making headlines. Brvao reports that Tamra Judge, Shannon Storms Beador, Heather Dubrow, Gina Kirschenheiter, Emily Simpson, Jennifer Pedranti, and Taylor Armstrong recently filmed their RHOC season 17 reunion on September 7, 2023.

Following this, RHOC cast member Tamra shared some insight about the upcoming reunion in her recent podcast interview, Two Ts In A Pod with Teddi Mellencamp and Tamra Judge. After completing the filming, she confessed that she "forgot how hard" it was to cover the reunion. According to her:

“It was, leading up to it, so stressful for me. More stressful than normal. I mean, I’ve had my bad years where it’s been brutal, and this wasn’t exactly a horrible year for me, but it wasn’t a walk in the park. I had a lot of explaining to do. You will see in the reunion, me and Shannon go up against each other a few times.”

Originally joining the show in RHOC season 3, Tamra decided to leave in January 2020. Upon her arrival in season 17, Tamra gave many updates on her life and created many feuds. Especially with the drama she has created in the episodes of season 17, it looks like she has a lot to cover in the reunion.
