Alexis Bellino She returned to Real Housewives of Orange County with various relationships with veteran cast members. During her previous stint on RHOC from seasons 5 to 8, Alexis did not get along with Heather Dubrow. The pair are now friends.
Alexis was also often in explosive disagreements with Judge TamraDuring this time, Tamra coined the term “Jesus Jugs” to refer to her arch-nemesis. But fans were surprised to see the two get along during the season 18 premiere.
It may have something to do with having a common enemy in Shannon Beador. But Tamra says that after a “deep conversation,” she and Alexis became “very close.”
Alexis is “not being tied down” this time.
Tamra recently spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about settling her differences with Alexis before filming together again. And they got some encouragement from Bravo executive producer Andy Cohen.
“If you had asked me about this two years ago, I would have said, ‘No, I don’t want her back,’” Tamra said. “But I met her at a Bravo conference. [2023]With Andy [Cohen] “She stood in front of us, we had a very deep conversation about the past and where she is today, regrets and things like that and we became very close.”
Tamra feels that Alexis has changed a lot since her time on RHOC, and has become a better person. It is worth noting that she has been facing a lot of personal struggles recently.
“You’re going to see Alexis who is so outspoken, so funny, so weird, so loud, so sad,” Tamra explained. “She’s been through a lot, and that’s what makes her so sad is that she got beat up. But people don’t know that she recently lost her mother. She called off her engagement. She’s been through a lot of things… I hope people don’t judge her just because she’s dating John Janssen.”
As for Alexis, she opened up about her friendship with Tamra during the season one premiere of RHOC.
“Did we have our downsides? Yes. Did we complain about each other? Yes. But I’m so grateful for our friendship now,” she said.
