‘Real Housewives of Orange County’: Fans call out Tamra for failing to comfort Gina as she recounted Matt's abuse
People usually comfort their loved ones when they are hurting, but not our 'RHOC' housewife Tamra Judge. On the recently aired reunion episode, we saw Gina recounting the events from the night she was abused by her ex-husband, Matt. While Gina is narrating all the painful details about the night, almost everybody on the stage broke into tears for the housewife.
Gina went into minute details and explained what was running through her mind, and how she ran out of the house to seek help from their neighbors, and how Matt dragged her back to the house. It was very painful to hear the details, and of course, Gina got very emotional while reliving that traumatic experience again. Her new friend Tamra Judge was seated next to her on the couch. While Gina was recounting all these painful memories, Tamra just sat there staring blankly at the camera, instead of trying to comfort her friend.
Kelly Dodd, who was seated on the opposite couch, was so moved by the housewife's pain that she asks Tamra to hug Gina to comfort her. The first time she asked Tamra, Tamra just ignores her, when she asked the second time, Tamra gives a flimsy excuse and says there was a pillow between Gina and her due to which she couldn't hug Gina. Fans were horrified watching Tamra being so indifferent towards her friend who is in so much pain.
A fan tweeted, "Tamra is seriously lacking the compassion gene isn't she... scooch closer to Skipper and hold her for gawds sakes... #RHOC". Another fan chided Tamra with, "Tamra (the DV spokesperson) is a str8 up sociopath & can't comfort Gina bc of a pillow & her other friend Shannon did not say 1 peep. Gina, pay attention, the people on other couch are truly there for you. #RHOC". "All you need to know about Tamra is that she could not hug Gina because there was a pillow in the way! #pathetic #RHOC #rhocreunion #WWHL #bravotv", commented a fan.
Another fan echoed similar thoughts with, "Tamra not comforting Gina while she’s bawling her eyes out about her husband abusing her, tells us everything we need to know about Tamra. Wow! #rhocreunion #RHOC". "Tamra, Gina damn near followed you into a bush to comfort you. #rhoc", joked a fan referring to Tamra crying in the bushes during the season finale. Another fan observed, "The fact that Kelly has to tell Tamra to hug Gina shows that Tamra has no sympathy for anyone but herself. Selfish a** h** #RHOC #RHOCreunion".
