Court Documents: Tamra Barney Claims Longtime Abuse From Estranged Husband Simon


RadarOnline.com:
We've obtained the court papers in which Bravo star Tamra Barney was granted a temporary restraining order from her estranged husband Simon after raising allegations of longtime physical and verbal abuse.


The Real Housewives of Orange County star said in the court docs, issued in an Orange County courtroom September 23, that Simon physically assaulted her repeatedly during their 11-year marriage, as "his angry outbursts occurred, and continue to occur in the presence of our children.


Tamra said she did not break her silence on the alleged abuse until now because she "wrongfully believed that maybe these violent acts could be rationalized, and also due to embarrassment [she] did not report these instances of physical abuse in the past."


Tamra said that last August, Simon told their 4-year-old daughter he wanted to change the ring tone of his cell phone to the sound of howling dogs for any calls he would receive from her mother.


Simon was arrested last week on domestic violence charges and subsequently released from Santa Ana's Men’s Central Jail after he posted $10,000 bail. The Orange County District Attorney refused to file charges on the case.


Simon later told the Orange County Register he's "confident and [has] faith that the truth will come out in the courts instead of the media" regarding the assault allegations.
It's hard to believe that Tamra's just making all this up to get back at Simon. Besides, the guy's anger-control issues were there for all the world to see already.

  1. Tamra is a horrible individual. Look at how she stabs those closest to her in the back constantly and that should tell you about her lack of character.

    I hope Geena beats the shit out of her.
