Tamra Barney

As far as Tamra Barney is concerned, she's totally rubber.

Slade Smiley? He's glue, and anything he says bounces off The Real Housewife of Orange County and sticks to Gretchen Rossi's boyfriend.

These two continue to go at one another in public, as Smiley told E! News this week that Barney is delusional for claiming he doesn't pay child support. He also finds it very creepy that Tamra has contacted Slade's ex-wife, Michelle.

Barney has now fired back, explaining to the same site that she and Michelle were introduced through a mutual friend and:

"I feel extremely sorry for her and my heart breaks for her and Grayson. Michelle is a very strong woman and went out of her way to contact me today to tell me that she was proud of me for standing up for her and Grayson and to keep my head up."

Slade Smiley is sick of the accusations.

The boyfriend of Gretchen Rossi is the father of 10-year-old Grayson Arroyo-Smiley, who has been diagnosed with diffuse fibrillary astrocytoma, a type of brain cancer. As of February, court documents showed that Smiley owed his ex-wife $139,000 in child support payments, prompting to Tamra Barney to label Slade as a deadbeat dad.

But Smiley has provided forms to E! News that prove his responsibilities are now being met, and he's lashing out at anyone who says otherwise.

Sunday's season finale of Real Housewives of Orange County saw Tamra Barney throw red wine (and a cease-and-desist letter) in Jeana Keough's face.

Her motive? Jeana badmouthing Tamra in the press.

But for all her supposed gossiping about Tamra's divorce from estranged ex Simon Barney, Jeana has an ally here in former co-star Gretchen Rossi.

STEP OFF: Jeana gets served by Tamra. A random d-bag looks on.

"It's very strange how the woman conducts her life," Gretchen Rossi said.

"Tamra threw the letter in her face. Tamra threw the drink in her face but yet, two episodes earlier Tamra was crying to Jeana saying, 'You want my kids to think it's OK to throw something at somebody just because you're mad at them?'"

"And I'm thinking to myself, 'How hypocritical is that?'

"You don't go to a party armed with a cease-and-desist letter," she continued. "To me, that's overly dramatic. That's just looking for attention."

"That's looking for camera time. To throw it in somebody's face when you're an adult like that just shows your level of class and immaturity."

BAM. We're guessing Tamra's not on Gretch's Christmas card list.

You won't believe this, but the Real Housewives of Orange County reunion special will be filled with tears, screaming matches and a great deal of drama.

Over the course of an hour, Barney...

... accuses Gretchen Rossi of "sleeping with another guy while your fiancé was dying."

... screams: "Is your ass jealous of the s–– that comes out of your mouth?" 

... storms off the set after accusing Jeana Keough of lying fighting with Gretchen's boyfriend, Slade Smiley.

Fun times ahead, huh? The excitement will air on Bravo on June 12.

Tamra Barney sure knows how to have a good time.

The Real Housewives of Orange County star recently raised eyebrows for a soft core porn seductive scene in the bathtub with Eddie Judge on the Bravo hit.

Now, the two are at it again, only not on reality TV. Tamra and Eddie partied like college kids in Mexico, with Judge taking body shots off his blonde babe.

If you have the stomach for it, check out Eddie prepping Tamra's stomach for a severe tonguing and then delivering the goods. How jealous are you!?!

Tamra Barney might be engaged to Eddie Judge. But she was definitely naked and seducing him from the inside of a bathtub on the March 20 episode of The Real Housewives of Orange County.

Does she have any regrets over the scripted stunt her actions? Nah.

"I'm a free spirit, so I'm fine with it," Barney tells Life & Style in a new interview.

Alexis Bellino didn't think the scene was appropriate, however, saying on that evening's installment of "Watch What Happens Live" that Tamra's behavior was akin to "soft-core porn."

Barney's response to this transparently contrived controversy? "It probably wasn't one of my better on-camera choices. Because one day I might have to answer to my children, but they don't watch the show. And would they disown me because I'm happy and in love? No."

Enormous news out of the world of scripted drama today: Tamra Barney and Eddie Judge might be getting married!

“We’ve talked about marriage and we want to get married,” Tamra told Radar Online of her relationship. "“It’s an insane amount of love; I have never said term ‘soul mate’ before, but we are!"

The bond between Barney and Judge got off to a rough start, as Tamra's ex-husband, Simon, says he was friends with Eddie when Tamra first started doing him. She denies this.

Soon after the season six premiere of The Real Housewives of Orange County on Sunday night, cast member Tamra Barney made a startling announcement to Andy Cohen on Watch What Happens Live!.

Claiming Peggy Tanous was also a victim, Tamra has gone into detail about what she claims went down at a recent New York City party she attended for the show's press tour.

"I know the guy that did it walked up with two drinks that were pink," Barney tells Radar Online. "He had sunglasses on and looked Middle Eastern. That's all I remember."

Two Real Housewives got into one fake fight at a wrap party over the weekend.

Angry at Jeana Keough for giving defaming, inaccurate interviews about her over the last few weeks, Tamra Barney reportedly tried to hand her castmate a cease and  desist letter at a Vicky Gunvalson-hosted gathering on Saturday night.

But witnesses told Radar Online the scene turned into "an out-of-control bar" confrontation after Keough refused to accept the document.

“Jeana said to Tamra, ‘You're a bitch and I’m gonna throw you’re ass in the pool. 'Then she pushed Tamra, as if she was trying to throw her in the pool," said the onlooker, adding that Barney responded by tossing a wine glass at her nemesis.

The Real Housewives of Orange County star Tamra Barney's estranged husband, Simon Barney, was arrested this morning on suspicion of domestic battery.

Simon, who is in the process of divorcing Tamra, got into an argument with her over their dog and allegedly threw the dog's leash at her and hit her wrist.
