Real Housewives of Orange County fans were shocked to learn that Shannon Storms Beador had some receipts that proved Alexis Bellino actually was involved in John Janssen’s defamation lawsuit.
Bellino, 47, who is dating 60-year-old Beador’s ex Janssen, had previously claimed on the Bravo series that she had nothing to do with the defamation lawsuit Janssen filed against Beador in 2018.
Bellino had previously broken down after learning that she wasn’t invited on Beador’s trip to London to celebrate her 60th birthday.
Beador showed Gina Kirschenheiter a text from 2018 that proved Alexis did have a part in the defamation lawsuit, at the end of Thursday’s episode.
The bombshell revelation not only stunned Kirschenheiter, but legions of fans as well, who responded on social media after the episode.

‘That text Shannon pulled up. Oooooooh s**t Jesus Jugs. What you have to say now? #RHOC,’ said X user @AGayAndHisEnby, referring to a nickname Tamra Judge gave Bellino earlier.
@nosmokenomore added, ‘The soap opera of it all!!!! Receipts, proof, timeline, screenshots, f—king everything!!!! Shannon vindicated (duh)!!! Gina saying she always believed Shannon.’
@msTKbaby added, ‘Shannon ate Alexis up with that text… while @DrewOfBorg shared a screengrab of the text, adding, ‘Oop! Alexis’ busted!’
@esteco2 clarified a comment one of the ladies made in regards to Shannon’s contentious ‘loan’ of $75K from her ex Janssen.
‘“Then pay him back. Move on” What Shannon said on Jeff Lewis isn’t admitting it was a loan. It could also be that he gifted it to her. But Heather and Tamra won’t let it go. Plus Shannon offered to pay him the 75k!! How do they always leave that part out!!
@MBC0801 quote-retweeted that previous tweet, adding, ‘What part of she offered to pay him the full amount are they not getting? She said it more than three times… he didn’t want to sign a mutual NDA so therefore it’s ongoing now & he’s just trying to make her suffer atp! They listen to criticize not to empathize #RHOC
@brownboywriting added, ‘Everybody in confessionals saying Shannon shouldn’t have purchased them expensive gifts with the lawsuit pending but I didn’t see not one lady decline the gift bags in the moment!’
@thom_ahs said, ‘My respect for Gina has jumped so high with how she’s handled Shannon this season. She’s been such a stalwart friend, never believing Alexis’ bullshit. Despite her having a rocky relationship with Shannon for YEARS, she’s backed her up like a genuine friend would.

Shannon Beador apologizes to daughters after arrest in promo
@klovesmoney3 also praised Gina, stating, ‘Thank u Gina, Emily, Jenn, Katie AND CANT FORGET Vicki for being there for Shannon when her “friends” are constantly betraying her.’
Shannon’s text reveal came after she left her own birthday dinner, after many of the other ladies brought up the $75K “loan” from Janssen.
While Beador didn’t want to talk about it, many of the other ladies found it odd that she spoke about it for over an hour on Jeff Lewis’ Sirius XM radio show before the trip.
Real Housewives of Orange County continues its 18th season with a new episode on Thursday, October 17 at 8 PM ET on Bravo.
