Tamra Judge didn’t miss the opportunity to throw shade at Shannon Beador’s DUI while discussing Karen Huger’s recent arrest for driving while impaired by alcohol.
Karen Huger is the latest member of the Real Housewives club to be arrested for an alleged DUI.
Naturally, this news rocked the Bravoverse and became fodder for blogs and Real Housewives podcasts like Teddi Mellencamp and Tamra Judge’s Two Ts in a Pod.
On the March episode of the Two Ts in a Pod podcast, Tamra and Teddi discussed Karen’s recent car crash and DUI. While discussing Karen’s latest brush with the law, Tamra reignited her feud with Shannon Beador by bringing up her own DUI from September 2023.
In a clip from the podcast episode, Tamra asked, “What do you think Bravo should do with housewives that get DUIs?”
Teddi replied, “I don’t think somebody should necessarily be fired for making a mistake like that.”
However, Tamra Judge interjected: “What if they’re not getting help? And what if they’re still drinking?”
“I think that if somebody is getting to a place where they could hurt themselves or other people…” Teddi said. “That is a problem but it’s not necessarily your boss’ job to handle it.”
Tamra responded with a simple “Mmhmm…”
To add fuel to the fire, the podcast duo “BE SMART PEOPLE!” at the top of their podcast clip.

As you may recall, Shannon Beador was arrested for DUI and hit-and-run in September 2023 after she drove into some person’s home with her dog Archie in the car. Thankfully, Archie didn’t sustain any injuries in the crash, but Shannon suffered a broken arm and facial injuries.
In lieu of rehab, Shannon chose to enter a behavior wellness program which included intensive outpatient therapy.
Some, including Tamra Judge, it seems, feel Shannon didn’t really take a good enough look at her relationship with alcohol. Because of this, Tamra pulled out of her, Shannon, and Vicki Gunvalson’s Tre Amigas tour. Tammy Sue felt it was too soon to be doing an alcohol-infused live show so soon after Shannon’s DUI, and thus, a feud between her and the other two Tres Amigas ensued. Vicki and Shannon didn’t agree with Tamra’s take and planned to continue their live shows without their third amiga and the booze content.
The Real Housewives of Orange County will return for season 18 in mid-to-late 2024.
