Just when it seemed a fragile peace might be possible in Orange County, Alexis Bellino has just taken Shannon Beador’s olive branch and set it on fire. After Shannon offered a surprisingly gracious compliment about her wedding to John Janssen, Alexis has responded with a vicious, passive-aggressive takedown, effectively telling her nemesis to “move on” and keep “my husband’s name out of her mouth.”
The drama began when Shannon, both on “Watch What Happens Live” and at the reunion, put aside their bitter feud and admitted that Alexis’s wedding to her ex, John Janssen, looked “beautiful.” It was a moment of unexpected class from a woman who had been publicly battling John in court.
But Alexis did not accept the compliment with grace. Instead, she used it as an opportunity to twist the knife.
“I’m glad that it feels like she can finally move on
,” Alexis said with cutting condescension on the Reality with The King podcast. “And hopefully now next season… she’ll leave my husband’s name out of her mouth, because it makes her look kind of
like an idiot to bring him up this many years later.”
This was not a simple thank you; it was a calculated power move designed to humiliate Shannon.
“Alexis is reveling in her victory,” an insider source told us. “Shannon offered a moment of peace, and Alexis used it to kick her while she’s down. She’s not just accepting a compliment; she’s issuing a warning and an insult. She’s making it crystal clear that John is
her husband now, and that Shannon needs to know her place.”
Alexis then went on to praise her own wedding, almost rubbing it in Shannon’s face. “There’s no one that can say my wedding was beautiful and think they’re lying, because it was beautiful,” she declared.
She also gave a backhanded compliment to Tamra Judge for being “sensitive” to Shannon’s feelings at the reunion, while simultaneously confirming Tamra was holding back even more praise for the wedding out of pity for Shannon’s “difficulty moving forward.”
THE CONCLUSION
Alexis Bellino has made her position clear. She is not interested in peace; she is interested in victory. By taking Shannon’s compliment and turning it into a weapon, she has ensured that the war between them is far from over. She has claimed her man, she has claimed her victory, and she is now demanding the silence of her vanquished foe. The message to Shannon is brutal and clear: move on, or be made to look like an idiot.
Jeana Keough accused Shannon Beador of being “mean” to her for “no reason,” and she shared what triggered their feud. The Real Housewives of Orange County alum also gave an update on her sons Shane Keough and Colton Keough, who were featured often in early seasons.
Four seasons after Jeana left the show, Shannon ‘stormed’ in. For 10 years, Shannon has been open about her life, including her ex-husband David Beador’s past affair. Throughout their marriage, Shannon was also honest about their marriage struggles.
“You know who’s mean to me for no reason is Shannon Beador,” said Jeana on Vicki Gunvalson‘s podcast, My Friend, My Soulmate, My Podcast. “There’s no reason to be mean to me.”
Jeana then hinted at what triggered their feud.
“All I said was that [it] was really stupid of [Shannon] — I told one of the girls. It wasn’t even on camera — [that] it [was] really stupid for you to tell everybody [on camera that] you hadn’t had sex with your husband for a year. Because he’s good-looking and rich, there’s girls that are gonna go after that dude.”
“And I was right. They went after him,” she continued. “She should have gone on the next episode [and said], ‘I screwed his brains out every morning, night, and evening now.’”
Vicki’s cohost, Christian Gray Snow, added, “She should’ve rolled in in a wheelchair to that confessional.”
At one point in the episode, Jeana gave an update on her kids.
“Colton’s working in Camarillo, [California] for fire insurance,” said Jeana. “And Shane’s in Florida. His daughter‘s in Florida, so. [Colton] was there for nine months, but he came back … He just missed all his friends.”
“But Camarillo’s not close to Orange County,” said Vicki.
“No,” said Jeana. “But it’s a big job, and he couldn’t say no.”
Back in 2021, Shane shared some details about his career.
“I live in Jacksonville, Florida. I’m in real estate,” said Shane on WWHL After Show, via Bravo TV. “I have an environmental sustainability agency, so we focus on how to make the world a better place.”
“Colton’s doing real estate,” he added. “He works with my mom down in Irvine, so family business, I guess.”
