Tamra Judge says Jennifer Pedranti ‘ruined her family’ for a ‘player’
Tamra Judge strongly criticized Jennifer Pedranti’s choice to end her 18-year marriage in order to date a “player” on the latest episode of “The Real Housewives of Orange County.” During a group lunch, Judge brought up the fact that Pedranti’s boyfriend, Ryan Boyajian, had been involved with another woman while they were on a short break, but Pedranti chose to stay with him. Judge shouted at her friend, “You have destroyed your entire family!” Jennifer, who has five children with her ex-husband Will Pedranti, immediately became emotional and fired back, “I have not ruined my family! How dare you say that!” Judge responded by accusing Jennifer of leaving her family for a player and claimed that Boyajian had been involved with other women at her former gym, CUT Fitness, where Jennifer and Boyajian first met. Tamra Judge and Jennifer Pedranti engaged in a heated argument during the recent episode of “The Real Housewives of Orange County.” Judge accused Jennifer of “ruining” her 18-year marriage for a “player.” Earlier in the conversation, Judge also accused Boyajian of being unfaithful to Jennifer while they were still together. Jennifer admitted that he had been involved with another woman but did not clarify whether it happened during their break or if it was considered cheating. “If you need to expose my personal life to make yourself more relevant, good for you,” Jennifer yelled at her friend. “They had sex with each other. Do you know how much that hurts? It feels like a knife in my heart.” Jennifer vehemently denied ruining her family and became visibly upset over the accusations against her boyfriend. Judge, on the other hand, justified her actions by claiming that she didn’t want her friend to get hurt. “I don’t think you should be with him,” Judge admitted. “I’m sorry, it’s difficult for me to hold back.” However, other cast members came to Jennifer’s defense, stating that it was her decision to stay with Boyajian. The rest of the “Housewives” supported Jennifer. “I believe the bottom line is Jennifer knows he’s a player, and she chooses to be with him,” Gina Kirschenheiter chimed in. Heather Dubrow also added that Jennifer didn’t want to constantly discuss her relationship. The conversation ended with Judge expressing her desire for Jennifer to find happiness. However, Jennifer remained unconvinced. She revealed that she had seen a text message Boyajian sent to another woman. During a confessional, Jennifer admitted that she was aware of a text message her boyfriend had sent, which supposedly read, “Get naked in my bed.” “I knew about this,” Jennifer confessed. “I forgave Ryan because I love him. I’m not trying to defend Ryan, but why do I have to keep talking about it? I know we were on a break, but it hurt, it was painful, and it sucked. It’s Ryan’s responsibility to own up to his actions, not mine.” Despite the allegations of infidelity and relationship issues, Jennifer and Boyajian still appear to be in a strong relationship. “The Real Housewives of Orange County” airs on Bravo on Wednesdays at 8 p.m. ET.
Tamra Judge slammed Jennifer Pedranti’s decision to end her 18-year marriage to date a “player” on Wednesday’s episode of “The Real Housewives of Orange County.”
During a group lunch, Judge decided to bring up how Pedranti’s boyfriend, Ryan Boyajian, hooked up with another woman while they were on a brief break, but she stayed with him.
“You ruined your whole family!” Judge shouted at her on-again, off-again friend.
Jennifer – who shares five children with her ex-husband, Will Pedranti – instantly got emotional and screamed back, “I didn’t ruin my family! How f–king dare you!”
“You left for a player! You’re not the only person he f–ked at my gym,” Judge claimed, referring to Jennifer and Boyajian meeting at her former gym, CUT Fitness.
Earlier in the conversation, Judge had also accused Boyajian of being unfaithful to Jennifer while they were fully “together.”
Jennifer went on to confirm he had previously hooked up with another woman but refused to say if it happened during their aforementioned break or if he had cheated.
“If you need my s–t to air to make you more f–king relevant, good for f–king you,” Jennifer shouted at her friend. “They f–ked each other. Do you know what that’s like? It’s like a f–king knife in my heart.”

Judge, however, justified her actions by saying that she didn’t want her friend to “get hurt.”
“I don’t like you with him,” Judge then admitted. “I’m sorry and it’s hard for me to hold back.”
However, several of the other cast members came to Jennifer’s defense that it was her decision to stay with him.
“I think the bottom line is Jenn knows he’s a player, and she chooses to still be with him,” Gina Kirschenheiter chimed in.
Heather Dubrow also added that Jennifer “doesn’t wanna sit here and break down her relationship for the 14th time.”
The conversation ended with Judge telling Jennifer that she just wants her to be “happy.” However, Jennifer just wasn’t buying it.
During a confessional, Jennifer went on to admit that she knew about a text message her boyfriend sent to a woman that allegedly read, “Get naked in my bed.”
“I did know all about this,” Jennifer explained. “I forgave Ryan, because I love Ryan. I’m not sitting here trying to protect Ryan, but why do I have to keep talking about it? I know we were on a break, but it hurts, it’s painful, it sucked, and it’s Ryan’s job to own up to what he did — I didn’t do this.”
“You don’t get to sit there and be my friend and tell me I ruined my family,” Jennifer continued. “I can hear and take a hard conversation, but not the way you’ve done it — that is not the way a friend talks or acts.”
Despite the cheating accusations and relationship rumblings, Jennifer and Boyajian still appear to be going strong.
“The Real Housewives of Orange County” airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. ET on Bravo.
