During the RHOC premiere on July 11, Tamra broke down in tears over the situation with Sydney.
“Every time I see the number 111, I always wish that Sidney would come home one day,” Tamra told her youngest daughter Sophia before getting the angel number tattooed on her arm.
“I know you don’t want to talk about her,” Tamra admitted, while Sophia agreed that she didn’t want to discuss her sister but was still willing to give her mother a comforting hug.
“I’ve always been really close to Sofia. I’ve been really close to Sydney. With Sofia, we talk all the time and I tell her I love her all the time,” Tamra said in her confessional.
“Unfortunately, Sydney is standing by Simone. She doesn’t talk to any of us. It’s hard. It’s like your child is dead, but they’re still alive,” she added.
Tamra married her current husband, Eddie Judge, in 2013, two years after her divorce from Simon was finalized. The RHOC star and her ex-husband have worked hard to maintain an amicable relationship for the sake of their children.
