We’re only six episodes deep into Season 18 of The Real Housewives of Orange County. But, Tamra Judge is already giving us a glimpse into what may transpire between Alexis Bellino and Shannon Beador at the reunion.
It’s a tough season for Shannon. Filming picked up in the aftermath of her drunkenly smashing her car into a home AND now knowing that her ex John Janssen and Alexis are allegedly smashing each other “more than” four times a day. Ouch.
Shannon’s former amiga, Tamra, has now moved over to Team Alexis. Tamra recently shared that new buddy Jesus Jugs Alexis might use some her her time at the Season 18 reunion to reveal the details of video footage of Shannon recorded on the night of her DUI arrest.
Tamra Judge: Alexis Bellino “will probably” spill about the Shannon Beador DUI night videos during the RHOC Season 18 reunion
In the latest episode, Alexis declared that if John’s videos of Shannon get out, “it will ruin her life.” Ahead of the episode’s premiere, Tamra sat down with Decider and added more context.
Tamra explained that John has Ring footage that shows “what went down” on that fateful September 2023 night. Shannon drank, stupidly got behind the wheel with an unsuspecting Archie, slammed into a house, and left the scene. Tamra doesn’t think John will release the videos, but his new boo Alexis might mention it all at the reunion.
“John will never release those videos, I don’t think. I think that they will be brought up at the reunion. I think that Alexis will probably tell everybody what’s on them, and I think everybody’s going to be shocked,“ said Tamra.
Tamra explained that Alexis and John are reaching their breaking point with Shannon. “Alexis has said many times, ‘I don’t want these to come out. But she keeps pushing us and she keeps pushing us.’ I think if Shannon would just leave John alone, just leave him alone and say she’s sorry. She would call all of us drunk and say horrible things about him and the next day go, ‘I didn’t say that. That’s not true.’”
Tamra says she now “laughs” at Shannon
Tamra says many in their circle are tired of Shannon drunkenly saying something and then denying it when she’s sober.
“She has a pattern of doing this to people. She’s doing it to me now, and I laugh at her. I mean, there’s times where I’m like, are you kidding me right now? She’s sitting here going, ‘I will never talk to Tamra.’ I’m like, ‘I had to back up from you because you’re drinking. I’ve done nothing to you, but be a good friend.’”
Don’t all “good friends” throw your alcohol problems back into your face in a room full of people and giddily plot the release of damning footage of you? All in a season’s work for Tamra!
The Real Housewives of Orange County continues Thursdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
