The reunion part 2 of The Real Housewives of Orange County season 18 episode 19 was finally released on November 14, but it hasn't marked an end to the season because the last reunion episode is still yet to air.
At the reunion, Andy brought up Jen and her boyfriend, Ryan Boyajian, talking about Tamra and her husband on social media. He brought up Ryan calling Tamra's husband gay and his comments about her being his beard. Tamra objected to this and asked Jen to not talk about her husband when he hadn't done anything to her. Jen argued that he did insert himself in their fights.
This also was the topic of discussion at Katie's dinner party, which eventually turned into a tiff between Tamra and her husband Eddie and culminated in Tamra storming out of the party. On Reunion part 2, Jen claimed that Eddie didn't sleep in Tamra's bed that night, insinuating he cheated, while Tamra said she didn't remember. Jen also said Tamra stooped lower than most, and the latter couldn't deny it.
Fans of The Real Housewives of Orange County took to X to praise Jen for standing up against Tamra.
"So glad Tamra is getting some accountability. Completely out of control. Get her Jen. And get her again for us," said one fan.
"Jen was putting Tamera in her place! Like your man don’t even like you CLOCK It!" another said.
"Me proudly watching Jen P whack Heather and Tamra at the #RHOC reunion," a third commented.
"“At some point Tamra it hurts.” The reason why I think a lot of people love Jen is that she always sounds sincere and organic. Yes, this is a produced show but when she says Tamra has hurt her feelings, it feels palpable. Do y’all think Tamra goes lower than everyone else?" another wrote.
Some fans of The Real Housewives of Orange County praised Jen for bringing up her relationships with her ex, Simon, and her current husband, Eddie.
"Jen bringing up Tamra cheating on Simon was SO good," an X user wrote.
"Jen: Where did Eddie sleep that night? didn’t he sleep in the casita? Tamra: The casita is where my daughter stays. Jen: Well Eddie didn’t sleep with YOU that night. I wouldn’t want to sleep with you either…," another user wrote.
"Jen Pedranti is definitely finding her voice and understanding how to play the housewives game. She clapped back at Emily and now Tamra she needs to teach Katie tbh," commented one.
"Did Jen just confirm that Tamra cheated on Simon with Eddie and Tamra didn’t deny it?" another wrote.
The conversation between Tamra and Jen on The Real Housewives of Orange County episode 19
On the reunion part 2 of The Real Housewives of Orange County season 18, Jen asked Tamra if she ever felt like she goes lower than necessary. Tamra said they all do, and she wasn't the only one to do so. Shannon interrupted and said she took it lower than most, and Tamra said, "I probably do." To this, Andy asked her to not be defensive when the cast members were calling her out for something she said.
Jen then told her that she went to a different level than any of them went to, and at some point it hurt. Then on The Real Housewives of Orange County reunion, Andy brought up Ryan's comments on Eddie. He mentioned Ryan calling Eddie gay and calling his marriage a "sham." Jen defended Ryan by saying that someone needed to stand up to Tamra's "mouth."
When Tamra asked her to go after her and not her husband, Jen said Eddie inserted himself in the feud by calling Ryan a cheater. Jen then asked Tamra if Eddie felt the same way about her since she also had cheated on her ex, Simon.
The next episode of The Real Housewives of Orange County season 18 comes out on Thursday at 9 pm ET on Bravo.
