Tamra Judge spoke curtly with host Andy Cohen during the second and final reunion episode of The Real Housewives Of Orange County season 17 on Wednesday.
The 56-year-old reality star told Andy, 55, to fuck off and shut up during a heated discussion about castmate Heather Dubrow, 54, on the Bravo show.
Andy was concerned with who really called people losers at BravoCon. Tamra said she was upset that Heather said she always wanted Alexis Bellino to come back on the show and not her.
Tamra said it was Heather who called the rest of the cast losers, but Heather denied this.
“Bulls***!” screamed Tamra, who was recently hospitalized with an intestinal obstruction.

Heather said she regretted mentioning anything to Emily Simpson, 47, that someone was talking about her at BravoCon.
“I sat down at the table and said, ‘You hang out with losers,'” Tamra said. “Because you told me I was just joking.”
“By the way, you said horrible things about everyone who was still on the show when you weren’t on the show,” Andy said.
“But we’re not fucking talking about that,” Tamra told Andy, an executive producer on the reality series.
“I just want to point out that you called her a loser,” Andy said.
“Right and because she said it, it’s okay?” Tamra said.
“No,” Andy said.
“Okay, then shut up,” Tamra said to Andy.

“I messed up the name,” Emily admitted.
“You screwed up the whole thing,” Heather said. “It was like Colonel Mustard in the billiard room with a rope.” When Professor Plum was in the kitchen with a knife.’
“That was good, Heather,” Emily said sarcastically.
Shannon Beador, 59, also cried as she talked about how devastated she was after her split from John Janssen.
“Because what would happen is he would leave, and he would ghost me, and I wouldn’t talk to him for days,” Shannon said, crying. “And it would be paralyzing for me because I’ve never loved anyone more in my life than I did John Janssen. ‘He said I’m ready to take the next step with you.’
“But if he wanted to take the next step with you, why did he break up with you?” Andy asked.
“He was trying to get through the filming so he wouldn’t look bad,” Gina Kirschenheiter, 39, said.
“He said it on camera and then a week later he broke up with me,” Shannon said.

The episode began with a message that read, “The Real Housewives of Orange County Reunion was filmed 10 days before Shannon Storms Beador was arrested for drunk driving.”
Shannon apologized to Gina for Child Protective Services comments she made after Gina’s drunk driving arrest. Shannon told Gina that she never suggested that the children were taken away from her by CPS.
“I feel like you didn’t hurt me,” Gina said. “I feel like you hurt my children.”
“And I feel terrible about it,” Shannon said.
Andy delved into Shannon’s relationship with John.
“I’m so excited to get into this,” joked Shannon.
Shannon said she had a positive relationship with John before filming, but it quickly deteriorated once cameras rolled. Shannon said everyone talked about details of their relationship, but she only spoke to Heather about it.
“That’s not true,” Heather said.
Strongly Disagree: “That’s not true,” said Heather Dubrow
“You all said you talked about your relationship,” Andy said.
“You told people off camera, ‘Shannon and John’s relationship is not good, but I can’t tell you what it is because it’s in the vault,'” Shannon told Heather.
“Do you really think I was this Machiavellian behind the scenes,” Heather said.
“I do Heather,” Shannon said.
“Please don’t be mad at me, you tend to drink and call some of us,” Heather said.
“That’s a stupid thing to tell me,” Shannon said.
“It’s not,” Heather said. “You’re the town crier.”
“Do I sometimes go out and drink?” For you to say that I need rehab, for you to say that you get the picture of me calling people every night for you to say that,” said Shannon, who has been with her since her Arrested in September for drunk driving, started outpatient rehab and…and racing.

“I didn’t say that every night,” Heather said.
“Don’t you want to watch this at all, Shannon?” Gina said.
“They don’t know anything about my personal, detailed life,” Shannon said. “Let me say it again, Gina: I don’t like you.”
“Yes, I understand that,” Gina said.
Andy pointed out that it seemed like everyone on the show had private conversations with Shannon about her relationship with John, and then everything was transferred to Heather. Gina said it was their job to say how they felt on camera.
“My job is to be Shannon Storm’s Beador!” Shannon screamed.
“Okay, you’re doing great,” Gina said.
“You know what in the end, Heather, he fucking broke up with me,” Shannon said, crying. ‘He has broken my heart.’

“Well, that makes me sad,” Heather said.
“I’m embarrassed,” Shannon said.
Andy asked if she was back with John because she posted a lot with him on social media. Shannon said no.
“I’m going through a lot right now,” Shannon said. “Both of my children went to college. It was really, really hard for me.’
“He’s not the one,” Tamra said. “You still trust him.” “You have to cut contact.”
A viewer asked Shannon if she realized that Tamra was the one talking about her relationship. Heather said she never promised not to talk about Shannon’s relationship with John, but would keep the details private.
Andy asked if John was a “friend with benefits.”
“Sometimes,” Shannon said.
“Wow,” Andy said.
Emily became emotional as she discussed her strained relationship with her mother and shared that she had also expanded her friendship with Tamra. Heather denied that she was only friends with Tamra because she was afraid of her.

“I never went against you because I’m afraid of you,” Heather said. “Because you get mean.”
“You should be afraid of me,” Tamra said.
Emily said Heather said a lot of negative things about Tamra.
“You said she was an asshole,” Emily said.
“She’s an asshole,” Heather said. “I love you, but sometimes you’re an asshole.”
Emily told Heather that she had no sense of humor when she said at her party that they could be branded “HD” on the forehead.
“That’s just fucking rude,” Heather said.
“Well, it’s rude to call someone a mammoth,” Emily said.
Heather said they had already talked at length about her looking like a Snuffleupagus and that she didn’t mean it.
“I said it well,” Heather said.
“It’s a mammoth!” said Emily. “A Snuffleupagus is a mammoth!”
Good Way: “I said it well,” Heather said as she called Emily a snuffleupagus
At the end of the show, Tamra said that she loved Heather and that it was difficult not having her in her life.
“I just want to move on and get back to where we were,” Tamra said.
Heather agreed and said they’ve all had a tough year.
“The more friends the better,” Heather said.
Tamra said she started the season with tough times as she closed her gym and lost her dog.
“I’m not trying to make excuses,” Tamra said. “I drank way too much and I’m an asshole when I drink.”
Andy said he appreciated the get-together and that it was a successful reunion.

He said it was nice that they would all go out together afterward.
“I think we’re entitled to care about each other,” Emily said. “I love Heather. I mean that.’
Andy gave them all tequila shots except Gina, who was drinking an energy drink.
The Real Housewives Of Orange County premiered on Bravo in March 2006.
