While Tamra Barney Judge is in a bitter custody battle over her three youngest children, she was bonding with her grown son Ryan Vieth over anti-aging treatments on The Real Housewives of Orange County.
On Monday night’s episode, as Judge talked to her 28-year-old son about how she was going to her doctor for some anti-aging treatments, he told her his secret — human growth hormone, a.k.a., HGH.
“I don’t want to get any older,” plastic surgery enthusiast Judge, 46, said to Vieth.
“You’re 52?” he joked.
“You’re such an a**hole,” responded Judge, who gave birth to Vieth at age 18.
Vieth wondered if the doctor would prescribe HGH, and revealed to his mom that was his own solution.
“I have less fat on my body. My muscles are more dense. Even my hair has gotten better,” boasted Vieth, who recently got engaged after a trouble-prone past and is now working at Judge’s gym, CUT.
Judge told the cameras that Vieth had always struggled with body issues and looked for the easy way out.
And horrifyingly, Vieth admitted to Judge he purchased his HGH from “the parking lot.”
Vieth said it looked legit, but Judge forced him to go to the doctor with her and he conceded of his HGH purchases, “It’s sketchy and probably illegal.”
“It’s sketchy and illegal but it’s the way you like to do it,” scolded Judge, who also told the cameras Vieth was a grown man and she couldn’t control him anymore.
Later the mother/son duo visited Dr. Lester Lee, and the anti-aging physician suggested hormone replacement therapy for the housewife, specifically, testosterone.
