RHOC: Shannon Beador Won’t Quit if Alexis Bellino Returns for Season 18

RHOC's Shannon Beador spotted 'bitching' about Alexis Bellino before DUI

Shannon Beador has zero plans to quit RHOC if former star Alexis Bellino returns for season 18: “She Has Enough Allies,” per source.

The Bravoverse is buzzing with speculation that Alexis Bellino could be returning for season 18 of RHOC amid gossip she’s dating/getting friendly with Shannon Beador‘s ex John Janssen.

Despite the buzz on social media, Radar Online reports that Bravo has yet to make any casting decisions about season 18 of RHOC.

A source also tells the outlet that Alexis Bellino‘s possible return to the Real Housewives of Orange County would NOT affect Shannon Beador. The insider notes that the longtime RHOC star won’t quit or cause drama with production if they bring Alexis back to the show.

“We are still aways away,” a source revealed to the gossip outlet when asked about casting for season 18.

Tamra Judge, Shannon Beador, Heather Dubrow, Emily Simpson, Gina Kirschenheiter, Taylor Armstrong, and Jennifer Pedranti pose for a group photo at the RHOC season 17 finale party.

As for why Shannon Beador won’t be sweating Alexis’ potential return to the Real Housewives of Orange County, the insider says it is because she has so many allies on the show to lean on and have her back.

“I think she has enough allies on that show,” one insider said. “Especially if they bring Vicki (Gunvalson) back.”

Alexis and Shannon never starred on the Real Housewives of Orange County together, as Shannon joined the franchise after Alexis’ season nine exit.

This all comes after Alexis was spotted out with Shannon’s ex-boyfriend, John Janssen, at The Quiet Woman.

John is reportedly “interested” in Alexis and is already pursuing the Bravo alum.

A rep for Alexis also teased that something was brewing between John and the 46-year-old.

Alexis and John have so much in common that it’s easy to see why they are quickly becoming friends,” Alexis’ publicist, Spencer Lubitz, told Page Six last week.

The rep explains that Alexis and John “happened to be at The Quiet Woman at the same time when they initially met, and a friendship was born. Orange County is a small place, so it’s not surprising they would cross paths.”

Amid the gossip, Alexis shut down the “BS” and “rumors” about her personal life on Instagram but didn’t flat out deny reports she was dating John.

Regarding Alexis’ potential return to the Real Housewives of Orange County, she teased the possibility of reclaiming her orange at BravoCon earlier this month.

“I’m definitely excited and proud to be associated with the network, and I’d never want to say never,” she told Page Six at BravoCon. “And I’ll leave it at that.”

RHOC will return for season 18 in 2024.

Of course Shannon is going to come back no matter what. How else could she afford all of her binge drinking night and all that alcohol?

"...Orange County is a small place, so it’s not surprising they would cross paths.” The OC has over 3 million residents and 36 cities. God only knows how many restaurants. There are lots of pick-up bars for middle aged women. Yet these women all end up at one restaurant over and over again, "The Quiet Woman". No doubt they go there because it is a HW hang-out, not because OC is some small, out of the way place, with no other options.

So, she should return. Alexis already said she's not dating the guy.
