Everything That's Been Going on With Tamra Judge's Husband, Sons, and Daughters
The RHOC cast member has seen a lot of changes in her extended family's dynamics in the last few years.
Her kids are of the utmost importance to Tamra Judge and, on The Real Housewives of Orange County, Tamra has been open about the highs and lows of her relationships with her four children. She's also let viewers inside her other relationships, including the birth of her granddaughter Ava Veith, her strained relationship with her eldest daughter, Sidney Barney, and the situation with her mother, Sandy Blake.
She's even given Bravo fans a front-row seat to two of her marriages: first to Simon Barney, her second husband whom she divorced in 2011; and then later to Eddie Judge, whom she married in 2013 and remains married to today.
Is Tamra Judge still married to Eddie Judge?
Yes, Tamra is currently married to Eddie Judge.
The two met in 2010 after Tamra separated from her ex Simon. “I’m dating this amazing guy that I’m totally in love with and he’s hot — super hot,” Tamra shared in the Season 6 premiere of RHOC, which aired in March 2011.
Eddie proposed to Tamra with a ring in a clamshell while the two were vacationing in Bora Bora during RHOC Season 7. After getting engaged, Tamra and Eddie moved in together. They got married on June 15, 2013, as documented in Tamra’s O.C. Wedding Special.
Over the years, Tamra and Eddie have opened (and closed) businesses together, as well as dealt with Eddie’s health issues. Through it all, they’ve remained married — for over a decade now.
Who are Tamra Judge's kids?
Tamra shares daughters Sidney and Sophia Barney as well as son Spencer Barney, with her ex-husband Simon.
She also has a son, Ryan Vieth, from a previous relationship.
Ryan made Tamra a grandmother when he had his daughter, Ava.
Who is Tamra Judge's son Ryan Vieth?
Tamra gave birth to her first child, Ryan, when she was 19 years old.
She talked to People in 2019 about the difficulties of being a young mother.
“I was a teen mom and Ryan was probably three years old, and he was screaming in the car. He would not be quiet," she recalled to the publication. "He was in his car seat. And I stopped the car and I said, ‘If you don’t be quiet, I’m gonna take your car seat out and put it on the curb and I’m gonna drive away.’"
Tamra says that Ryan has an equally-vivid memory of that incident, adding, “And to this day, he still reminds me. He might’ve been a little older, ’cause he sure remembers! He’s like, ‘Mom, that was horrible, I can’t believe you said that!’ I go, ‘That is horrible.’"
Fans have seen that, as adults, Ryan and Tamra’s close relationship throughout RHOC. These days, Ryan is all grown up with a child of his own, a daughter named Ava.
According to his Instagram page, he continues to work with horses.
Who is Tamra Judge's daughter Sidney Barney?
Tamra’s eldest daughter Sidney was born in 1998.
As a result of her divorce from Simon, Tamra and her daughter Sidney have had a difficult relationship at times, which has been documented on RHOC. In June 2023, after returning to RHOC for Season 17, Tamra appeared on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen and gave fans an update on where things stand between her and Sidney today.
Tamra revealed that her relationship with her oldest daughter is in a “good” place now. “I actually saw her at Sophia’s [high school] graduation, and things were nice,” she said.
Who is Tamra Judge’s son Spencer Barney?
Tamra’s youngest son, Spencer, was born in 2000. He has appeared on RHOC throughout the years, and fans have gotten the chance to watch him grow up.
These days, “Spencer is in college getting his psych degree, and he is doing amazing,” Tamra told BravoTV.com in the June 2023 interview at the top of this post. “[He’s] been working really hard. He lives about an hour away from us, but we talk every single day. And he’s excited to graduate.”
Who is Tamra Judge’s daughter Sophia Barney?
Tamra’s younger daughter, Sophia, was born in 2005.
In November 2018, Tamra explained why fans had seen Spencer and Ryan on TV, but not Sophia. “Spencer is now a legal adult and can sign his own contract. Sophia would love to film but her father won’t sign," she wrote on social media at the time.
She did share an exciting update about Sophia’s life with BravoTV.com in June 2023. “Sophia just graduated high school last week. [I’m] super excited about that,” Tamra said. “My last baby has graduated, so it’s kind of sad, but it’s exciting.”
Still, Tamra and Eddie aren’t exactly empty nesters yet. “She’s not going anywhere anytime soon,” Tamra added of her youngest child. “She’s going to go to a school locally, so we’re happy for that. But she’s doing amazing.”
Who is Tamra Judge’s granddaughter Ava Vieth?
Through her eldest son, Ryan, Tamra is a grandmother to Ava, who was born on February 9, 2015.
Tamra offered an adorable update on her grandchild in honor of her 9th birthday in 2024.
"Happy 9th Birthday, Ava," Tamra began in the caption of her post, which included a video featuring a series of photos of Ava celebrating her big day. "Love you with all my heart."
Who is Tamra Judge’s ex-husband, Simon Barney?
Simon was Tamra's husband when she joined RHOC in Season 3, though fans quickly learned their relationship was in a tough place. The couple got in a huge fight in the season finale in which Tamra declared, “I want a divorce.”
Their divorce was finalized in 2011.
The two have found themselves in a more amicable situation following Simon's battle with stage 3 throat cancer, which he first confirmed to People in 2020. At the time, Tamra told the publication that "any ill feelings between the two of us just vanished” when she learned of his diagnosis. "All we have to do is rally together to make it through this," she added.
Who is Tamra Judge’s mother, Sandy Baker?
RHOC fans know Tamra’s mom, Sandy, well, as she has appeared on the show a number of times. Most recently, in Season 17 — which aired in 2023 — Tamra revealed that her mother was living with her and Eddie.
“I sold my mom’s condo, and she moved into our casita. We’re counting down the days until she leaves,” shared Tamra, who wasn’t pleased with how often Sandy’s boyfriend, David, had been staying at the house. “I don’t think it’s anytime soon.”
“I don’t need any sexual noises coming from my 70-year-old mom into my 17-year-old daughter’s ears,” Tamra said in a confessional.
When a producer asks if Sandy is a “screamer,” Tamra quipped, “Like mother like daughter.”
