Tamra Judge and Gretchen Rossi certainly experienced their fair share of ups and downs over the course of several seasons on The Real Housewives of Orange County, but where do they stand today? 

How to Watch

Tamra addressed this exact topic during a recent Q&A with fans hosted by BravoTV.com.

Tamra and Gretchen’s Current Friendship Status

More specifically, Tamra was asked by a viewer if she’s spoken to Gretchen at all following her Season 8 departure from RHOC.

“Nope,” Tamra responded. “Not in 10 years.”

That settles that, but one of Tamra’s current RHOC castmates has indeed kept in touch with Gretchen: Heather Dubrow

Heather and Gretchen were spotted together in November 2022, and Tamra shared her thoughts about the hang-out on the podcast she shares with The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave.

“Don’t care,” Tamra said. “No opinion. Do not care.”

She added that she has “no relationship, friendship whatsoever” with Gretchen. As for Heather, she’s “a grown-ass woman,” Tamra said. “If that’s who she wants to hang out with, then so be it.”

Heather also keeps in touch with another RHOC alum, Alexis Bellino. During an appearance on the June 21 episode of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, the titular host asked Heather where she stands with RHOC alum Alexis today.

“We’ve been talking for the last few years,” Heather said, much to Andy’s surprise. “Actually, our kids — a couple of our kids — were in a play together three or four years ago and we connected back then, and we’ve been talking ever since.”

What Gretchen Rossi Is Up to Today

Gretchen’s Family Life 

Fans watched Gretchen stage an elaborate proposal to her then-boyfriend Slade Smiley on RHOC Season 8, and although the couple has yet to marry, their relationship is still going strong to this day. The two have been open about their in vitro fertilization (IVF) journey over the years, and in 2019, they welcomed a baby, a daughter named Skylar Gray Smiley
