Alexis Bellino doubles down on Shannon Beador’s lawsuit
During season 18 of The Real Housewives of Orange County, one of my favorite shows, Alexis BellinoHe came back. Of course, Alexis expected the show to be fun and full of trivial drama. Instead, she was bombarded with hate because of her relationship with John Janssen. Alexis’s new fiancé is too Shannon Beador Ex-boyfriend. So, Alexis felt compelled to defend her husband. It was a lot for the RHOC cast and fans to handle. Now Shannon claims that Alexis is involved in two lawsuits against her.
Alexis Bellino insists she has nothing to do with either lawsuit against Shannon Beador
Shannon, Alexis and Tamra Judge visited Bravo headquarters to discuss this legal mess. As you may recall, Alexis was married to Jim Bellino. In 2018, Jim hit Tamra and Shannon with a defamation lawsuit. Recently, John also sued Shannon for $75,000, which he reportedly loaned her for plastic surgery while they were dating. According to Shannon, this money was a gift, not a loan.
“Anyone who would say, ‘It’s weird that Alexis is around two guys who sued Shannon,’ I would say, ‘Yes, it’s kind of crazy,'” Alexis said. “I have nothing to do with either of them.” [lawsuit]”.
As for the defamation case, Shannon still holds a grudge against Alexis. “I lost $300,000 defending myself, and I did nothing wrong. I won the case and the appeal,” Shannon said. Meanwhile, Tamra lost $500,000 to the lawsuit.
“I really have no interest in becoming friends with the woman who got the ball rolling on her defamation lawsuit against her ex-husband,” Shannon continued. In the video on Bravo HQ, the screen showed text messages Alexis sent to Shannon. “We have hired an attorney and will sue you and Tamra,” it read. Another section read: “You will hear from our lawyers.”
So, Alexis tried to explain why she sent the text. “This is where Shannon thinks I’m involved: I sent the text to Shannon and Tamra to my then-ex-husband. ‘He called me very upset,’ she explained. ‘Someone gave me [Shannon’s] Cell phone [number]“So I texted her and Tamra and said, you know, ‘Please just shut your mouth and this will happen.’ Our lawyer will call you.” I think this makes sense.

Even Tamra agreed with Alexis. “Alexis really wasn’t involved [the lawsuit]. It was her ex-husband who introduced her. “It didn’t have her name on it,” Tamra said. “There was nothing.”
However, Shannon had one ace up her sleeve. “Alexis denies any involvement, but she sent me a cease and desist letter. I own it,” Shannon said.
As for Johnny J.’s lawsuit against Shannon? “I hate to say it but I said it [John] to settle when offered $45,000. It’s like: “This is not enough.” She owes me 75 [thousand dollars]“Alexis said. “I don’t blame him because he says, ‘Just pay me what you owe me.’ And that’s it. That’s all he wants.”
