Shannon Beador, of The Real Housewives of Orange County fame, has broken her silence on her ex-boyfriend John Janssen’s newfound relationship with fellow RHOC star Alexis Bellino. In an exclusive interview with E! News at Jeff Lewis’ Hollywood Houselift season two premiere party, Shannon expressed her feelings about the situation and addressed her concerns.
“I’ve been hurt a lot in the last couple of weeks,” Shannon admitted. She expressed confusion over John’s decision to thrust himself into the public eye despite previously expressing a desire for privacy. Furthermore, Shannon highlighted her financial and emotional devastation from a previous lawsuit involving Jim Bellino, Alexis’ ex-husband, in which Shannon and co-star Tamra Judge were defendants.
Shannon also shared her suspicions about John’s choice to date a second RHOC cast member, questioning the extent of the Orange County Housewives as a dating pool. She refuted rumors of a verbal altercation with Alexis before her DUI arrest in September, asserting that such claims were unfounded.
Regarding her current relationship with John, Shannon disclosed that they haven’t spoken in quite some time, emphasizing the strained nature of their breakup, especially in light of his new romance.
While E! News previously confirmed Alexis and John’s relationship, a source clarified that they are taking things slow and enjoying each other’s company without rushing to define their relationship.
Shannon’s candid comments provide insight into her feelings about the situation and shed light on the complexities of navigating personal relationships within the reality TV spotlight.
