RHOC Fans Bored By Season 20
The Real Housewives of Orange County began twenty years ago. It kicked off Bravo’s long-running Real Housewives franchise. Vicki Gunvalson was a main cast member for 13 seasons before getting demoted and ultimately leaving. She returned in honor of the show’s 20th season.
But after three episodes of Season 20, viewers are just bored. They took to social media to vent about the lackluster milestone season.
- “Twenty years of screaming and screeching. I’ve stopped watching most of Bravo’s shows. They’re all the same with different people yelling.”
- “Once they brought Vicki back, I was done.”
- “I think it is time for a reboot. These women are getting stale.”
- “It’s boring and they’re all on the 10th version of their respective faces.”
The problem could be that the stars are holding out. Tamra Judge claimed that Shannon Beador is keeping a huge secret from viewers.
Tamra Judge Calls Out Shannon Beador For Keeping Huge Secret From Viewers
Shannon Beador and Tamra Judge separately repaired their friendships with Vicki Gunvalson. However, their own friendship remained tense after Season 18, after Tamra spoke out against her friend’s DUI arrest. The former friends were still at odds during Season 19. But according to Tamra, Shannon is keeping a huge secret from viewers and she doesn’t know why.
She spilled the details to Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea.” Tamra Judge claimed that her friendship with Shannon Beador is much better than Shannon lets on. “We move forward, then we move back, we move forward, then we move back,” Tamra admitted.

“I feel like now we’re doing good, but I don’t think she wants anybody to know we’re doing good,” the RHOC star said. She shaded Shannon Beador with the comment, “Some people just act for the comments section of Instagram.”
Tamra Judge did offer one possible explanation for Shannon Beador keeping their friendship a secret. “Unless she doesn’t want to give it away yet. It could be that, too.” However, she pointed out that fans see them together in real life and they post photos together.
Tamra Judge may not know where she stands with Shannon Beador. However, her close friend, former RHOBH star Teddi Mellencamp, appears on the upcoming episode of RHOC.
Tamra Judge did admit to Page Six that a blow-up between her and Shannon while filming The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Roaring 20th may be part of the problem. “She says that I called her a drunk. I don’t remember calling her a drunk … I think she called me a drunk,” Tamra said about the argument.
RHOC airs on Bravo on Thursdays at 8 PM Eastern. The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Roaring 20th premieres on Sunday, August 9, at 9 PM Eastern. Tell us in the comments if you think Tamra and Shannon have repaired their friendship but Shannon’s keeping it a secret.
