💫 Voodoo, Rumors, and a Tamra Meltdown

Gina splits the group for a day of fun in New Orleans, assigning Emily the “troublemakers” (Shannon, Tamra, and Katie). But things implode quickly when Shannon refuses to ride with Katie or even sit at the same table for beignets.

Katie, left behind, vents to her husband Matt about Shannon’s cold shoulder. “I can’t eat a goddamn beignet with you?” she fires in her confessional. She eventually joins Gina’s group, but the frost in the air is undeniable.

Meanwhile, Tamra opens up to Shannon about wanting to move forward and admits alcohol brings out her worst side. Shannon’s face says it all, she’s not ready to let the past go.

🔥 The Roofie Rumor Erupts

Both groups meet at the Barkus Parade, then head to a voodoo shop for a session with Bloody Mary. While some ladies craft dolls, Tamra, Shannon, and Gretchen step outside and Tamra drops her bombshell.

According to Tamra, Katie met with a blogger and claimed Gretchen once said Tamra roofied her during the “naked wasted” night 17 years ago. Gretchen is stunned, but skeptical. Later, Katie denies it entirely and Gretchen believes her. Tamra? Not thrilled.

🍽 Dinner Disaster

By dinner, tensions are bubbling. Tamra tries to strategize with Gretchen, but finds out she’s siding with Katie. Katie joins in, Tamra refuses to reveal her source, and the conversation spirals.

At the table, Shannon unleashes on Katie, accusing her of hurting almost everyone there. Katie stays calm, but Jenn decides it’s the perfect moment to confront Tamra about showing an unflattering old photo of her. Tamra shrugs it off, claiming it was “retaliation,” but her slurred speech and closed eyes tell a different story.

Gina finally calls her out: “You’re sloshed.” Tamra storms off, then posts an Instagram Story announcing she’s “out” of the show — complete with texts to Gina and Heather telling them she’s done. She even has Eddie book her a flight.

🏁 Final Thoughts

From voodoo dolls to social media “I quit” posts, this episode is peak RHOC chaos. The roofie rumor shook alliances, Shannon drew her battle lines, and Tamra delivered one of her most dramatic exits to date. But if history tells us anything… she’ll be back.
