RHOC OG Vicki Gunvalson did not hold back while sharing her thoughts on Tamra Judge’s relationship with her estranged daughter, Sidney Barney.
“If my daughter didn’t talk to me, I’d be on a flipping plane right now, knocking on her door, begging her for forgiveness, and I don’t even care what I did,” Vicki Gunvalson said on the Monday, September 2, episode of “My Friend, My Soulmate, My Podcast” podcast. “Sidney has a very strong opinion of Tamra. ‘Stop embarrassing the family. Stop doing what you’re doing. Get off the show when you have a chance.’ Tamra did none of that.”
She continued, “That shows Sidney, ‘I’m not important to you.’ I don’t care about my money, my stuff. I care about my family, my daughter, my people in my life, so that’s the problem.”
“[Sidney] asked one thing: ‘Mom, stop swearing at people. Stop doing stupid stuff. And then come, let’s have a conversation,’” Vicki alleged.
She also suggested that there’s a “pretty simple” solution to Tamra Judge‘s estrangement from Sidney.
“Get off the show and reconcile with your daughter,” the OG of the OC said.
However, Vicki noted: “But even when Tamra was off [the show] for two years, she never connected with Sidney.”
Vicki then addressed Tamra’s claim that her relationship with Sidney is complex and challenging.
According to Vicki, the claim is BS, and she insisted that the RHOC star chose her marriage to Eddie Judge and reality TV fame over a relationship with her oldest daughter.
“No, it’s not! You gave birth to your daughter, you f–ked up, go apologize, and make it better and move on,” Vicki said. “You know, maybe she chose Eddie over her daughter, I don’t know … I don’t get, you know, how she cries on TV, and Sidney said, ‘Please don’t mention me. Please don’t do this.’ And the next thing you know, [Tamra]’s balling. It’s like, she can turn on the waterworks.”

Naturally, Tamra Judge caught wind of Vicki’s comments as they made their way around social media.
The 57-year-old RHOC star clapped back at the OG of the OC on social media.
In one comment, Tamra wrote: “Shut the f–k up Vicki. My daughter never said such thing. Leave us alone you miserable cow.”

Then, in a video clip, Tamra called Vicki “disgusting” and noted that she wasn’t going to take parenting advice from a woman who chose her cancer-scamming boyfriend over her daughter, referring to Vicki’s ex-boyfriend Brooks Ayers.
