Tamra Judge‘s husband, Eddie Judge, took to social media this week to defend her recent behavior on The Real Housewives of Orange County.
As Tamra, 57, continues to face backlash for her treatment of her castmates, particularly Shannon Beador, 60, who she labeled an “alcoholic,” and Ryan Boyajian, 46, who she made false claims against, Eddie, 51, shared a couple of messages on Instagram, insisting that the “real” Tamra isn’t seen on the show and slamming producers for giving her a bad edit.
“I’m glad no matter what, you always will think your wife is right,” someone wrote in a comment to Eddie, via screenshots shared by All About the Real Housewives on October 15.
“It’s not that difficult,” he replied. “The TV is not the same Tamra I married and love. I’ll support her always. Cuz I know the real Tamra. This message is for everyone who currently [has] these toxic people in their life.”
Another person on Instagram wanted to know if Eddie has considered divorce.
“Is divorce in the books? I’m sorry if it is, marriage is hard and being on TV makes it that much harder. [You’re] a great guy with a big heart. Wishing you well,” the fan wrote.
“Never,” Eddie confirmed.
According to Eddie, he’s never so much as thought of ending his marriage to Tamra and feels that what viewers are seeing on RHOC is nothing more than a bad edit.
“I love my wife to Mars and back. Well, the real Tamra. Not the TV show Tamra that has been adversely edited,” he explained.
Eddie’s claim of a poor edit comes just weeks after Alexis Bellino, 47, alleged that she, too, had fallen victim to the show’s producers.
“I just want to let everyone know that what you’re seeing in my career is not real. It’s not the truth,” she wrote on Instagram last month. “There has been so much left out intentionally to paint me in a bad light. It’s ok. I’ll take one for the team to get ratings for this business, but I will live in truth. And I will bring the truth. Whether I have to do it here on my Instagram page or if this career I chose decides to bring the truth out. Either way, it WILL come out. And you will also see the true Alexis. Because what you’re seeing on your TV right now is NOT me.”
The Real Housewives of Orange County season 18 airs Thursdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
