Tamra, 56, posted a behind-the-scenes snap of her and her daughter Sophia, 18, on the Real Housewives of Orange County set.

In the photo, the pair appeared to be filming confessional interviews for the Bravo reality show.

Sophia was seen rocking her blonde hair in loose waves and wearing a black t-shirt on.

Tamra, by contrast, had on a white top with thin halter straps around her neck.

The shirt featured a massive flower in the front that covered her tiny torso.

Her hair was wavy and in an updo style, and she had a full face of glam makeup.

She also posted photos of Sophia when she was younger and allowed to appear on RHOC.

“Full circle moment having Sophia back on #RHOC after all these years! Last seen in Season 5, you’ll now get to see a huge part of my life that I haven’t been able to share until now. She’s my mini-me, and I’m so proud of her,” Tamra’s caption read.

SHOWING FACE

Sophia appeared on an early episode of RHOC’s 18th season.

During the episode, Tamra and Sophia were seen riding in the car together to visit a tattoo shop.

“You look nervous. I’m shocked that you’re doing this because of your fear of needles. Is that what you’re nervous about?” Tamra asked.

“Yeah,” Sophia replied.

Tamra then asked Sophia where she was planning to get her tattoo, at which point she revealed that she was placing it just above her elbow.

“What if you meet a guy and he says he doesn’t like tattoos on the arms?” Tamra inquired.

“I don’t give a f**k. I don’t care,” Sophia hit back.

“Hey! Watch your language,” the RHOC star warned.

LAYING LOW

Sophia has been off camera for years because her father, Simon Barney, refused to sign consent forms allowing her to film RHOC with her mom, Tamra.

Now that she’s legally an adult, she can appear if she chooses.

Tamra asked her daughter about her father during the episode she was one, but Sophia shut down the conversation quickly.

Tamra also attempted to discuss her estranged daughter Sidney – Sophia’s sister – but she wasn’t interested in discussing her either.

In the tattoo shop, where she got “111” tattoo on her wrist, she revealed that she wishes on those numbers for her daughter to come back into her life.

Tamra also shares a son called Spencer with her ex, Simon, and an older son named Ryan with ex Darren Veith.

She has been living with Tamra and is preparing to head off to college.

“She’s such a good kid. I don’t know where the hell it came from,” Tamra said of her daughter.

During her time on the show, Sophia launched her music career, releasing a single called Break Like Ice under the name Feeuh back in 2018.
