Gretchen Rossi Slams 'Malicious' Tamra Barney

While there wasn't any table-flipping, things definitely got down and dirty on Sunday's season finale of Real Housewives of Orange County when Tamra Barney threw a glass of red wine (and a cease-and-desist letter) in frenemy Jeana Keough's face for badmouthing Tamra in the press.

And while Keough may have seemed like the bad guy for trash-talking Tamra's divorce to estranged ex Simon Barney, it's Tamra who is being blasted by fellow castmate Gretchen Rossi...

"It's very strange how the woman conducts her life," Rossi told us yesterday while promoting health supplement Thermogenic Push. "Tamra threw the letter in her face. Tamra threw the drink in her face but yet, two episodes earlier Tamra was crying to Jeana saying, 'You want my kids to think it's OK to throw something at somebody just because you're mad at them?' And I'm thinking to myself, 'How hypocritical is that?'

"You don't go to a party armed with a cease-and-desist letter," she continued. "To me, that's overly dramatic. That's looking for attention. That's looking for camera time. And to throw it in somebody's face when you're an adult like that just shows your level of class and immaturity..."

Meow! Doesn't sound like Rossi and Barney will be making up for their rocky relationship any time soon.

"Tamra is not somebody that I chose to have in my life," Rossi said. "She's negative energy for me in my life. I unfortunately, have realized that she's a malicious person with evil intentions and it's just not something that I want in my life."
