EXCLUSIVE: Real Housewife Tamra Barney Defends Son Accused of Stalking

Real Housewives of Orange County star Tamra Barney has released a statement exclusively to Breaking Celebrity News claiming that the woman who obtained a temporary restraining order against her son is a fame-hungry attention seeker.
“It's heart breaking that this troubled girl who we all cared about and let into our lives is out for her 15 minutes,” Tamra told Breaking Celebrity News exclusively of her son’s ex-girlfriend, who was granted an extension to a temporary restraining order last week. “They broke up months ago and they were BOTH ordered to stay away from each other.
Hairstylist Daniella Kelley originally obtained a TRO in December claiming that Tamra’s son, Ryan Vieth, posted explicit pictures of her, stolen from her computer, on the website TheDirty.com, which were subsequently ordered to be removed.
On February 3, Kelley applied to have the restraining order extended and that request was granted. The court wants both parties to not contact each other but Tamra charges that Kelley has not abided by the stipulation.
