Tamra Judge Is Now Living in the Gates Beyond the Gates

When Season 13 of The Real Housewives of Orange County premiered this fall, viewers were told about Eddie Judge's heart problems. Tamra Judge's husband had been struggling with the health issue and has undergone multiple procedures to try and help him get back on track after being diagnosed with atrial fibrillation, an irregular and often rapid heart rate. And when Tamra sat down during Part 2 of the reunion (set to air next week, preview above), she revealed just how intense his heart problems have been.

Following his last ablation, the doctor came out to the waiting room and, as Tamra recalled, "He went, 'Wow.' And I'm like, 'What?' And he goes, 'I just can't even believe how bad his heart is for his age... And he goes, he probably had a heart condition most of his life and had no idea."

At the time of the reunion taping, Tamra revealed that Eddie needed one more procedure to close the hole left after the last procedure.

When Tamra spoke to The Daily Dish in October, she noted that most of all, Eddie just wants to get back to his regularly scheduled fitness routine. "[He's looking forward to] just getting his life back," she said. "He's not active right now. He's trying, baby steps, and just wants to get healthy... he's in the right direction right now."
