Tamra Judge (née Waddle; formerly Barney) (born September 2, 1967)[1] is an American businesswoman and television personality. She is a cast member of Bravo reality television show The Real Housewives of Orange County, first appearing on its third season in 2008.[2][3]

Career[edit]

Before joining The Real Housewives of Orange County, Judge got her manicurist license, attending Covina Beauty College, and worked as a realtor on and off.[4][5] In 2007, it was announced that Judge would be joining the third season of The Real Housewives.[6] Judge stayed as a main cast member for twelve seasons until her departure in 2020 after the fourteenth season.[7] However, in 2022, Judge was announced to be returning to the seventeenth season of the show after a two season hiatus, officially announcing her return on Watch What Happens Live!.[8] This return to the season makes her the longest running housewife in a full-time cast member role along with Vicki Gunvalson, Ramona Singer and Kandi Burruss.

In 2013, Tamra and her now husband Eddie appeared in the second The Real Housewives spin-off: Tamra's OC Wedding, where in three episodes, their wedding was documented.[9]

After her departure from The Real Housewives, Judge returned to Real Estate. Along with continuing her career in real estate, she launched 'Vena CBD' with her husband. They began the business after Eddie's struggle with atrial fibrillation. The business title is derived from “Vena Cava,” in reference to the two largest veins in the human body that carry blood to the heart. Judge also started a podcast, named Two Ts In A Pod, with former The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast member Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave.[10]

In 2022, Judge appeared in season two as one of eight women on the reality television show The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip, along with Taylor Armstrong, Brandi Glanville, Vicki Gunvalson, Eva Marcille, Dorinda Medley, Phaedra Parks and Jill Zarin.[11][12]
