A Look into Sidney Barney and Her Relationship with her Mother, Tamra Judge
As much as it is the joy of every mother to have a closely-knitted relationship with their children, especially their daughters, that is not the case between Sidney and her TV Personality mother. The duo shares an estranged relationship which was rumored to have stemmed from Tamra’s divorce from her husband and Sydney’s father, Simon Barney.
After the divorce, her parents were given joint custody of their children, including Sidney. Unfortunately, that did not work, as she did not last long with her mother. She left and went back to her father’s house 3 years after the divorce. Sidney gave the reasons for her actions and claimed that her mother was neglectful, selfish, and abusive.
Their relationship is so strained that Sidney did not want her mother to attend her graduation ceremony in 2017. It took a lot of persuasion by her Dad for her to allow Tamra to attend the ceremony but not without a condition. The youngster had to make her mother agree not to post pictures on social media, which she agreed to, but later broke the agreement as she posted the pictures 2 weeks later.
Although Tamra has made many efforts to mend the broken relationship between her and her daughter, Sidney revealed that the situation between her and her mother will not change unless the circumstances change.

She added that the children were devastated as they could not visit their father, whose immune system has been compromised by cancer. Tamra said the diagnosis has in fact brought the family closer, including Sidney, with whom she is trying to mend her broken relationship.
