The Real Housewives of Orange County season 18 episode 12 aired on Thursday, September 26, 2024, on Bravo. The segment saw Tamra Judge argue with Jennifer Pedranti's fiancé, Ryan Boyajian, as she accused him of commenting on her as a mother.
The fight started with Ryan being questioned about his alleged statements about Eddie as a businessman. Jen tried to intervene and asked Ryan what he had said. When Tamra insisted he spoke negatively about the business, Ryan and Jennifer denied the claims and said he had been a friend to Eddie until the latter spoke "sh*t" about him, and the argument escalated.
Fans of the show The Real Housewives of Orange County commented on the conflict online and criticized Tamra Judge. One person wrote on X:
"@TamraJudgeOC you are being loud and wrong they just played his podcast interview back and he did not talk about you bad as a mother you looking crazy AF right now #RHOC @jennpedrantiOC I’m starting to think Tamra likes Ryan"
"Tamra was so drunk this episode. Girl, just apologize and don’t drag it on it’s embarrassing for you!!! The clips they played on the show completely vindicated Jenn and Ryan. I love Tamra but she was just outright wrong and looked like a drunk," a fan commented.
"Tamra, you are totally spinning that podcast. Ryan did not say half the things you claim he did. You are simply being bitter. You enjoy attacking people, but you don't like it when the tables are turned on you. It's time for you to grow up!" a tweet read.
Fans of The Real Housewives of Orange County sided with Ryan and commented:
"I'm team Ryan in this argument. I'm sorry. Tamra comes for everyone. Ryan didn't come for her kids. And Eddie should have spoken to Ryan when he heard what he heard. Tamra is constantly on the wrong side!" a person wrote.
"Not Tamra hyping up the episode and it ends w Ryan reading her for filth and he still gets vindicated by receipts shown by editors," a fan commented.
"Nah, wait a minute, Ryan actually made a decent point. Even if Eddie doesn’t see Ryan as a “threat”, they’re in the same friend circle. So, Eddie should’ve absolutely confronted Ryan head-on about it, in the moment, instead of waiting to say it to Tamra on camera," a tweet read.
Other netizens shared their opinions on Tamra-Ryan's fight during episode 12 of The Real Housewives of Orange County and called her "delusional":
"Tamra is really delusional. Ryan never talked about you as a mother or Eddie as a business man just be lying I listened to the pod he never said that," a person wrote.
"Tamra gaslighting & Eddie is in the wrong as well. Eddie, stop with the macho crap. If you were a real man, you would have gone up to Ryan and told him what was said about him instead of gossiping it out. You & Tamra are toxic," a fan commented.

In The Real Housewives of Orange County season 18 episode 12, Tamra and Eddie got into an argument with Ryan and Jennifer. Tamra accused Ryan of talking negatively about Eddie's business on a podcast. Jenn clarified that her fiancé had only been on one podcast and she had listened to everything.
When Ryan said Eddie talked "sh*t" about him, Tamra replied he didn't. He recalled Eddie saying that one of Ryan's friends told him to "watch out for Ryan" and that the latter liked to "go for married women."
Eddie said it happened and RHOC star agreed and responded that it happened "1000%." Ryan told Eddie that if someone came up to him and said that about his "chick," he would have had a conversation with the person in question.
Eddie added that he was not threatened by Ryan and that he could "guarantee" that he could never have Tamra. The Real Housewives of Orange County stars argued as Jenn asked why Tamra was getting involved, the latter said Ryan was "coming after" Eddie, and Jenn retaliated that she was attacking Ryan.
"I told the truth," Tamra yelled.
She added that Ryan went on a podcast and "ripped" her apart as a "mom." Ryan said he didn't, as the producers played a clip of Ryan saying he wouldn't want to "speculate" about the cast member's household.
Season 18 fans reacted to the fight online and were critical of Tamra confronting Ryan.
The Real Housewives of Orange County season 18 will air episode 13 next week on Thursday, October 3, 2024, on Bravo.
