Jennifer Pedranti leaked her DM exchange with Tamra Judge’s podcast co-host Teddi Mellencamp after Tamra called Jen “calculated.” Jen’s boyfriend Ryan Boyajian then knocked Tamra’s claim that she’s “working on herself,” and Jen declared she’s “DONE” being Tamra’s “punching bag.”

Throughout the last two seasons of Real Housewives of Orange County, Tamra insinuated that Jen’s boyfriend cheated on her. She also falsely suggested on Watch What Happens Live that Ryan stole money from a Dodgers player. She later apologized after Ryan threatened legal action. At the latest reunion, Tamra suggested that she was going to work on herself.

Amid their drama last season, Jen wrote a post calling Tamra “trash.” Teddi and Erika Jayne then publicly called her out on it. In response, Jen wrote them a message apologizing for using the word ‘trash’ to describe their friend, and she explained where she was coming from.

On a recent episode of their Two Ts un a Pod podcast, Teddi revealed that Jen recently messaged her again.

“Of course she [did],” said Tamra. “Wasn’t [it] just a month ago she was going off on you and Erika?”

“She wasn’t talking s**t about you, for the record,” Teddi responded. “She just said something nice.”

“Very calculated,” Tamra clapped back. “Very calculated.”

Jen then responded in a January 11 Instagram post.

“She calls me very calculated… 🙄 So here are my ‘VERY CALCULATED’ DM’s…” wrote Jen.

The star uploaded screenshots of the alleged message exchange with Teddi from November 12, which was shortly after Teddi revealed she filed for divorce.

“I just wanted to send you a message. Divorce is so hard, I hope you and the kids are doing ok,” wrote Jen to Teddi at the time. “Sounding good thoughts your way.”

Teddi allegedly responded, “Thank you. My heart is broken. I feel very scared and lost and all things aside. I appreciate you reaching out.”

Jen wrote back, “It is scary. I’ll tell you this.. you will find inner strength you never knew you had. It’s one day at a time. You’ll get through it.”

In the caption of Jen’s recent Instagram post, she also addressed her past message to Teddi and Erika concerning the “trash” comment.

“For the record.. read it — I was taking ownership for the wording I used in my DM to [Erika] and [Teddi],” she said, addressing Tamra.

As for the new DM, Jen explained, “My [recent] message to another woman going through a hard time isn’t ‘calculated’ — it’s called being a HUMAN ❤️. #takenotes.”

In the comments, Jen clarified, “This [post] is NOT about @teddimellencamp — she replied and was beyond kind in her reply.. I’m not sitting back and letting some woman THREE days ago call me ‘calculated..’ divorce SUCKS. I reached out to someone who was in a hard time. THATS IT.”

Jen said she’s “DONE” being Tamra’s “punching bag,” and she agreed with a fan who claimed Tamra’s reaction shows she “isn’t sorry for anything she has done.”

Jen’s boyfriend Ryan also commented, “Wait — this ‘very calculated’ comment was said about you just 3 days ago???? I thought the last time we all heard, [Tamra] was working on herself 🤔 Babe. I’m proud of you. Kindness and Love (oh ya, and authenticity) ALWAYS shine brightest.”

One fan expressed that, even if Jen hadn’t shared the proof of her recent DMs, no one would have believed Tamra’s “garbage” anyway.

“It’s not even ‘proof’ for me,” Jen replied. “It’s just being nice to someone in a hard place. And SHOCKER [Tamra] sees it as calculated. I’m not surprised.”
