Alexis Bellino Joins RHOC as a ‘Friend Of’ Rather Than Full-Time

Grab your blinged out Bibles! The papers have been signed and Alexis Bellino is coming back, my friends. Where is Tamra Judge making a comment when I need her the most?? Real Housewives of Orange County Season 18 just got interesting. And it just got annoying for Shannon Beador.

That’s because Alexis has passengers on the bus she’s driving back into RHOC. No, I’m not talking about her three lovely children, I’m talking about John Janssen. Yes, Shannon might have to put her head in a bowl and have Kelly Dodd come knock her around again because this will throw her for a loop. Get ready cats and kittens, the mouse has entered the chat. TMZ has the scoop.

She’s filming!

Insiders close to production say Lex has filmed with Heather Dubrow, Heather’s giant diamond ring, and Emily Simpson. No word on whether or not Heather’s ring also received an offer from Bravo. After ten years out of the game, Alexis is coming on as a “friend” of, well, everyone but Shannon.

Alexis was back to work this week and no, Johnny J hasn’t been spotted in the bushes. Yet. Neither has Tamra. Yet. While Shannon and Alexis have yet to meet on camera, it’s no secret the breakup between Shan and John wasn’t pretty. Unfortunately Shannon hasn’t had a great year, she managed to get arrested for a DUI hit-and-run at the end of last summer. Since then she’s received counseling “with an alcohol component.”

Both Shannon and Alexis were at BravoCon 2023 but she hadn’t started seeing John at that point. There are allegations going around that prior to Shannon’s drunken run in with some foliage and a house, she had been heard loudly “bitching” about Lex at a restaurant.

Another thorn in Shannon’s side will be Tammy Sue because they aren’t currently getting along. Tamra has been busy stirring the pot and leaving unusually nice comments on Alexis’ social media. That said, Alexis should probably stay frosty because their feud will be temporary, at best.

Ms. Bellino coming back to shake things up could be the kick in the pants RHOC needs.

Real Housewives of Orange County Season 18 is currently in production. At this time we don’t know if Lauri Waring has gone into hiding so Johnny J can’t close the Real Housewives Circle of Dating. Stay tuned.
