Although rumors have been circulating on the Internet that Tamra Barney Judge will not be returning for the next season of 'The Real Housewives of Orange County', reports say that she will still appear on the show.

Judge accused Lizzie Rosvek of spreading the false accusations in the first place. She even tweeted "So who do we think was the HW feeding the false stories to the press about me? #lame"

On a side note, Judge herself previously hinted that she might leave the show saying, "I do not know what the future holds for me, but I am glad that I have been able to share my ups and downs with you throughout the years."

However, despite all the shenanigans, all of the housewives from last season will return for the tenth season, including Judge.

Judge retweeted a news article on Monday, Oct. 6 revealing the start of the filming for Season 10 of 'The Real Housewives of Orange County'.

However, Bravo is allegedly devising a plan to remove the controversial housewife and "TV show bully" from the series for good. Judge is said to be causing "too much drama" and creating constant animosity among the housewives.

"Bravo is actively casting for someone who is a voice of reason. They want to replace Tamra who's stirring up to much s--- and the entire cast is against her," reports an insider from Radar Online.

"Everyone is stirring the pot too much. So they're NOT looking for someone who's a sex pot or out of control. Actually, just the opposite. They want someone who's really successful, an entrepreneur or just someone who's well respected among their peers," added the insider.

Bravo will reportedly bring in Vanessa Bryant to RHOC to intimidate Judge.

"No one needs to fire Tamra. After filming a few scenes with Vanessa, she'll leave on her own. Vanessa is a firecracker, Tamra is no match for her and she knows it. Tamra would rather quit the show than let Vanessa make a fool of her," a source from Celebrity Dirty Laundry reveals.

"She is already insecure about shooting with Vanessa because she is so much younger and richer than her. In Tamra's eyes she was always the hottest housewife on RHOC, and now that is all about to change," the source added.

Whether Judge will be fired or not, the upcoming season of 'The Real Housewives of Orange County' has already packed in a few punches even before it started.
