It’s no secret that Real Housewives franchises can be overflowing with problematic stars. The personality type is generally good for reality TV. Sometimes, though, things get too problematic. Case in point, Shannon Beador.
The Real Housewives of Orange County star was arrested just two months ago following a DUI and hit-and-run. No one was hurt, save Shannon, but nobody was all too pleased about the incident, including Shannon’s friends Tamra Judge and Vicki Gunvalson. The two expressed their concern for Shannon multiple times.
Honestly, in spite of how problematic the trio can be, their friendship is pretty wholesome. Everyone needs a support system, after all. At BravoCon 2023, Shannon opened up about the ways her friends had supported her following her arrest.
Tamra nearly missed The Traitors for Shannon
Us Weekly got the chance to speak with the Tres Amigas during BravoCon, asking about how Shannon’s life had been since her arrest. “These two have been an incredible support system to me,” Shannon said of Tamra and Vicki. She revealed that Tamra nearly changed her filming schedule after first learning about the DUI.
Shannon explained that Tamra “was leaving for The Traitors [in Scotland] on the day that my DUI became public, and she didn’t even want to go. She honestly was there [for me].” Tamra added, “I just wanted to lay in bed with her and watch TV. And then order up room service.”
As for her personal growth since the accident, Shannon shared, “I’ve learned a lot about myself and I’ve been focusing on eliminating toxic and unhealthy things for my life.” Shannon was especially happy to cut John Janssen out of her life. Vicki added, “We’ve all had toxic people, and she learned the hard way to get ’em out, and that was a life lesson.”
