As RHOC Season 18 wrapped up with impressive ratings, Tamra Judge made a bold statement, claiming she was the one who “carried” the season on her back. However, her co-stars, including Jennifer Pedranti, were quick to push back, causing a bit of a stir among the RHOC fans.

Season 18 of RHOC saw some of the highest ratings in five years, averaging 3.1 million total viewers and 1.6 million viewers in the coveted 18-49 demographic. According to the Wrap, this season’s strong performance was even more impressive considering it saw a 5% increase compared to the previous season. In fact, RHOC was among the top 15 entertainment series in the 18-49 demo in 2024, sitting alongside other Bravo heavyweights like Vanderpump Rules and The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

In the midst of this success, Tamra Judge, shared her thoughts, cheekily saying, “My back hurts,” implying that she was the reason behind the season’s strong ratings. Many fans, however, saw this as a bit too self-congratulatory, especially given that the show’s success is generally the result of the entire ensemble cast’s contributions.

Tamra’s comment did not sit well with her co-star Jennifer Pedranti, who quickly became a fan favorite after calling out Tamra Judge when no one else would. In response to Tamra’s claims, Jennifer posted, “?.. our ENTIRE cast did such a great job. Proud to be a part of this ensemble cast!!!”

While Tamra Judge’s confidence in taking credit for the season’s success may have seemed bold, it’s worth noting that Tamra has a bit of a history with RHOC fans. Once considered one of the most hated housewives in Bravo’s history due to her fiery personality, biting remarks, and countless controversies, many fans were quick to laugh at her recent claim. Tamra’s tendency to stir the pot and her occasional abrasive attitude has earned her a reputation as one of the most polarizing figures in Real Housewives history. As a result, some viewers found it hard to take her self-praise seriously.

In fact, fans took to social media in droves, mocking Tamra’s confidence and suggesting that her past behavior made her claims feel out of place. After all, how could the “most hated” housewife claim she was solely responsible for the season’s success? Many found humor in her audacity, with some commenting that the “back pain” she was referring to might be the weight of her own ego.
