During last week’s appearance onTamra JudgeandTeddi Mellencamp Arroyave’sTwo Ts in a Podpodcast, Richards doubled down on the Ozempic accusations.

“A lot of people think I’ve been taking Ozempic. To clarify, I’ve never taken Ozempic,” she assured, adding that she’s never taken any other similar injections, likeWegovyandMounjaro.

Richards also said she’s never had a tummy tuck, insisting that people would be able to see a scar on her stomach if she had.

“I had a breast reduction. I wanted a tummy tuck because of the skin from having four babies, the excess skin,” Richards said. “Because no matter how much you work out, you always will have that skin if it’s not taken away.”

“After gaining weight during the summer. On July 15 after getting off the boat, I said, ‘That is it. I’m not having any sugar, any carbs, any alcohol,'” she recalled.

The reality star said she originally planned to only keep up the changes for two or three weeks, but soon realized how beneficial it was for her health.

“I started losing weight, and I felt so good,” Richards continued. “I was like,‘Why would I go back to that?’ So I still have not had alcohol at all, and you know, I’ll have a bite of birthday cake here and there, but that’s it.”

“Ozempic?“said one userbefore Richards shot back, “I am NOT taking Ozempic. Never have.”

“I think it’s many visits to the plastic surgeon,” read another comment, to which theHalloween Endsactress responded, “I have never tried Ozempic and this is not from plastic surgery. Idid have a breast reductionin May.”

“I’m honest about what I do. But if giving plastic surgery the credit makes you feel better then pop off sister,” she added, tacking on a kissing-face emoji.
