The cast of RHOC season 17 has been revealed and the queen is returning. Tamra Judge is ready to return to the Bravo show after a two-year hiatus. During BravoCon 2022, Judge said she was shocked when she was asked to return to season 17 of RHOC. She expressed her sadness and talked about the intense feelings she had when she was fired.
She went on to say:
“I got to the point where I cried in a fetal position for the first year. I was sad because I wasn’t there, that everyone else was filming and everything.”
She described her surprise when she received the call. She remembers them saying they wanted to see her, which she couldn’t believe because she still didn’t know why she was kicked out of the RHOC and wanted to come back. Vicki Gunvalson, who, like Tamra, left the series after season 14, will also return. While news of Vicki’s return was still fresh, when the reality star found out that her friend Tamra was returning to RHOC, she expressed excitement for her.
She went on to say:
“Otherwise, I would be a lousy friend. Yes, I suffer from FOMO. I feel like any other woman.
Tamra joined the RHOC team in Season 3 and held a key role until Season 14 when she was fired. In 2020, she took to Instagram Live and told Andy Cohen that her breakup was about money. She also expressed grief, saying that she was sobbing and unable to eat or sleep.

Judge Tamra is too expensive for RHOC.
When Tamra Judge and Vicki Gunvalson were fired from Bravo, people assumed it was because the network wanted to recruit younger talent, but that wasn’t the point. Tamra announced her absence from the program on social networks. In an Instagram post, she said:
“It’s been an eventful 12 years. But it’s time for me to move on; I’m sad to have to leave, but I’m excited for what lies ahead. I admire you two.”
While Judge loved her time on the show, she mostly expressed her displeasure at being repeatedly portrayed negatively in 2019 and even called the producer to address it. The network was ready to cast Judge as a “friend” in the upcoming seasons, but she turned it down. Andy Cohen said he offered her the chance to “end her narrative” in season 15, but she turned it down because she didn’t want to return in a limited role.
He declared:
“We gave her three episodes to come back and complete her story… That’s right. She firmly objected. However, it has been on the show for 12 years. We wanted to send her out in style.
Judge spoke about RHOC on the Everything Iconic podcast. She told Danny Pellegrino it was a great trip and she’s so glad it happened.
She went on to say:
“When I get to the stage where I have the status of a friend. I’m done. I have a long way to go. It’s been a great ride. I’m glad it happened. If true. like that, I won’t’ I don’t see the point – I’m either all or all.”
The official release date of Season 17 has yet to be revealed. Season 16 ended in April of this year. The next season of The Real Housewives of Orange County probably won’t air until 2023.
