Jim Bellino shares his concerns over his ex-wife Alexis Bellino’s engagement with John Janssen while also questioning why John is so “secretive” about his career.
“I watched the Watch What Happens Live when [Andy Cohen] asked Alexis about whether she would sign a prenup,” Jim Bellino shared on the October 15 episode of The Sarah Fraser Show, according to E! News. “And I think that was the wrong question. I think Andy should’ve asked if John would sign the prenup.”
Jim Bellino confesses that he finds John Janssen to be “very secretive,” especially about his work.
“What does John do?” he asked. “In all honesty, if it was very vague what I did, I would want to share that, because there shouldn’t be a question what anybody’s motivation is. I hope that he’s successful. I worry about Alexis, and I hope that she protects her assets. I hope she makes him sign a prenup. I really do.”
The former reality TV husband also admitted that he didn’t understand Alexis Bellino‘s decision to return to The Real Housewives of Orange County as a “friend” for season 18.
“I haven’t talked to her about it, but I think if you come back, you have to come back as a full cast member and get paid substantially,” he said. “Having nothing to do with me paying alimony. It’s really in your best interest, to not be a friend. It doesn’t make sense financially. And if you’re going to go in, go all in.”
He then shared that he doesn’t believe Alexis’ friendship with co-star Tamra Judge is genuine.
“Do I think they are truly friends? No,” Jim stated. “I think that is a relationship out of convenience for the show.”
Alexis Bellino and Jim were married for 13 years before splitting in 2018. The two share three children: James, 18, and twins MacKenna and Miles, 16.
Despite Jim’s concerns about Alexis’ relationship with John and her return to RHOC, he notes they continue to co-parent their children very well.
“She’s an amazing mother, and I have nothing but good things to say about her as being the mother of my children,” he shared. “[I’m] very, very blessed to have her as the mother of my children. She did a great job.”
The Real Housewives of Orange County airs on Bravo Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET.

I think this engagement is about as phony as the jewelry line Whitney Rose “ created”. Soon after the reunion they’ll sadly announce for reasons they’d rather not disclose the pressure of outside forces has caused the one true love of their lifetimes to end or at least be put on hold until future notice. Thanks to all our fans for their love and support during this difficult time. Dirty John & the Blow Up Doll
Jim B is a weirdo, who walks around downtown Palm Springs in his pajamas in front of his lame restaurant (Alexis doesn't even name is in the right town its in on WWHL), Don't give this loser and his ex-wife the attention they crave. Jesus no.
A pre-nup is only necessary if there is a marriage, which I doubt is ever going to happen.
?
That says it all right there. Anyone who wanted to get all in my grill about ME calling a scrub a scrub now has even MORE back up of my (likely pinpoint, bullseye accurate) opinion of Johnny J to contend with. ? Bellino can’t put the euphemism laden toothpaste back in the tube when he advises ALEXIS to get a pre-nup. IJS cuz SCRUB ALERT!!! ?
