“Speaks Volumes to Me” — Fans of The Real Housewives of Orange County Respond to Eddie Monitoring Tamra’s Alcohol Consumption

The latest episode of The Real Housewives of Orange County season 18, titled The Elephant in the Room, premiered on Thursday, September 26, 2024. Katie and her husband, Matt Ginella, hosted a couples’ dinner party at their residence, which most of the cast members attended.

The evening took a tumultuous turn when Tamra Judge publicly accused Jennifer Pedranti’s partner, Ryan Boyajian, of allegedly disparaging her husband Eddie’s business on a podcast. Despite Jenn and Ryan vehemently denying the accusation, Tamra maintained that they were not being honest. The argument intensified as Tamra also critiqued Ryan’s parenting skills.

Prior to the altercation, the cast mingled and enjoyed alcoholic beverages. While most seemed aware of their consumption levels, Eddie grew increasingly concerned about Tamra’s drinking. He discreetly asked her to slow down, and when that didn’t appear to work, he approached the host, Matt, requesting that he cut off Tamra’s alcohol supply.

Tamra has previously criticized Shannon for her struggles with addiction, labeling her an “alcoholic.”However, fans noticed the irony of Tamra needing her husband’s supervision regarding her drinking habits and took to X to share their thoughts.

“Wow, Eddie saying that they shouldn’t serve Tamra any more alcohol speaks volumes to me,”wrote a fan.

“Crazy that Eddie has to police Tamra’s drinking and she has the nerve to speak on Shannon’s drinking,”another fan commented.

“Eddie telling Katie’s husband to cut off Tamra’s alcohol supply…it’s clear he’s tired of her antics….”a netizen tweeted.

Many viewers of The Real Housewives of Orange County criticized Tamra for her double standards regarding alcohol consumption while not being able to manage her own.

“Shannon is labeled an ‘alcoholic’ and ‘needs to stop drinking,’ yet Eddie had to discreetly tell Matt to stop serving Tamra? Within an hour of the party? Hmmm. Interesting,”a user reacted.

“Tamra has the nerve to question Shannon’s drinking while she’s stumbling out of someone’s home, leaving Eddie in a Barefoot Dreams cardigan,”a user remarked.

“Tamra wants to call Shannon the alcoholic but her husband has to cut her off regarding drinks,”another fan wrote.

“Let’s discuss the irony of Tamra being harsh on Shannon for her drinking problem, all while her husband has to oversee and ensure the bartender doesn’t over-serve her,”another user tweeted.

Meanwhile, some viewers noticed that Eddie appeared embarrassed by Tamra’s behavior.

“Eddie, why not tell your wife to cut back on her drinking? She looks like an alcoholic, especially given how she projects her issues onto Shannon. His facial expression spoke volumes; he looked disgusted. Poor guy!!”a user reacted.

“You can see on Eddie’s face how embarrassed he is by Tamra’s actions,”one netizen commented.

What transpired at the dinner party during The Real Housewives of Orange County season 18 episode 12?

Emily and her husband, Shane, were the first guests to arrive, followed by Tamra and Eddie, along with Jenn and Ryan. Before the gathering began, Katie advised Matt to be cautious about the animosity between Ryan and Eddie, fearing a potential confrontation.

When Ryan and Eddie encountered each other, their greeting was visibly tense; Ryan attempted a hug but Eddie rejected it. Meanwhile, Matt inquired about their drink preferences, with Tamra opting for a dirty martini, while Eddie chose sparkling water.

Upon being questioned by Shane about his teetotalism, Eddie replied:

“Not unless I have to tolerate the environment.”

As the guests settled in, Eddie pulled Tamra aside, prompting her to moderate her drinking. Recognizing she had already consumed a significant amount, he felt it was necessary to intervene.

In another moment, Tamra inadvertently spilled a drink while trying to assist Matt at the bar. Despite this, she continued drinking, which heightened the concerns of other cast members.

“Last time, when Tamra got incredibly intoxicated, I had a napkin thrown in my face. So everyone should hang onto their napkins tonight,”Jenn warned.

Worried about any further outbursts, Eddie discreetly approached Matt and asked him to refrain from serving any additional alcohol to Tamra.

The Real Housewives of Orange County season 18 will continue with a new episode on Thursday, October 13, 2024, exclusively on Bravo.
