‘Real Housewives Of Orange Country’ Exclusive Clip: Ryan Denies To Girlfriend Jennifer Pedranti That He Ever Said He Was Going To “F**k” Tamra Judge

Another Wednesday means another all-new episode of The Real Housewives Of Orange County Season 17. Bravo’s OG franchise has been firing on all cylinders, thanks to the return of Tamra Judge and all the drama she brings (and instigates). In last week’s episode during a trip to Montana, Tamra revealed what she had been told by her mysterious friend Heather Amin about show newbie Jennifer Pedranti‘s boyfriend Ryan Boyajian (the man Jennifer left her husband for). Allegedly, at CUT Fitness (owned and operated by Tamra and her husband, Eddie Judge) many years ago, Ryan walked in, saw Tamra, and told Heather that he was “going to fuck her” despite her being a married woman. Tamra waited years and Jennifer’s failed marriage later to bring up this story to Jennifer during filming, proof positive that Tamra is a master of the reality genre and knows what makes compelling television.

In this clip from tonight’s all-new episode, Jennifer returns home to Orange Country to debrief Ryan about the Montana vacation. After going through a few mundane details about the trip, Jennifer gets to the point, telling Ryan she’s glad he’s sitting down. “Tamra said that she was told you walked into the gym and said ‘I’m gonna fuck her,’” Jennifer says bluntly. With genuine surprise, Ryan asks: “What? Is she serious or joking…are you [saying] this in a laughing conversation?” When Jennifer relays that their former friend Heather Amin is the source of the story, the couple shares a skeptical look. “You definitely said this is not an accurate statement. Please tell me you said this,” Ryan asks desperately. “Yeah, I knew exactly where it came from,” replies Jennifer.

In her confessional, Jennifer confides: “Heather Amin is a friend of Tamra’s who I met through CUT Fitness who was like a sister to Ryan. I became very close with Heather when I started dating Ryan.” Then, editors cut to an interview with Tamra, who confirms that she and Jennifer and Heather were “pretty much the new Tres Amigas until things fell apart.” Jennifer reveals that Heather started to “drop little dimes but not the full [truth]” of information about Ryan to her under the guise of wanting to “protect” her, asking her not to tell Ryan. “It made me question the man I was with so we all parted ways,” Jennifer finishes.

Later, Jennifer reveals that Tamra didn’t tell her husband Eddie about Ryan’s alleged comment, and Ryan decides to talk to Eddie, saying “it’s not true.” Jennfier then alludes to having information about Tamra and Eddie’s relationship that she is just “biting her tongue” about because she “loves them so much.” With that statement, it’s clear that Jennifer could fight fire with fire, but right now, values her friendship with Tamra too much to do that. We’ll have to wait and see how long that lasts…
