Overview

• On a recent RHOC episode, Gretchen Rossi alleged Judge had a past affair with a boy‑band singer and referenced supposed audio via Slade Smiley, but no recording was aired.
• Judge publicly denied the claim on Instagram, saying she never slept with a boy‑band singer and stating she has a meeting with her legal team.
• Reality Blurb relayed a U.S. Sun report that Judge threatened to quit or issued an ultimatum to producers over Rossi’s return, which Judge later labeled “not true.”
• TV Shows Ace reported an unverified leak naming 98 Degrees member Jeff Timmons and shared a clip of Judge singing, with no independent corroboration of an affair.
• Judge intensified her rebuttal by calling Rossi a liar and highlighting alleged homophobic Instagram activity, as prior reporting has noted Judge later apologized after liking her son’s anti‑trans post.
