RHOC’s Katie Ginella Laughs off ‘Hate Campaign’ Amid Shannon Beador Feud

July 28, 2025

Katie Ginella is facing a lot of heat this season on Real Housewives of Orange County. Currently, Katie is experiencing several feuds on her cast. But her current fight with Shannon Beador has been the most shocking, as Katie and Shannon started this season in a great place.

Nevertheless, a story from last season is now sounding on RHOC Season 19. Reportedly, while filming promo shots for Season 18, Shannon entered the studio frantically. She had just learned that Alexis Bellino would be at this shoot. And, as we all know, Alexis is engaged to her ex, who was, at that time, suing Shannon.

So, Shannon was livid to exist within the same confines as Alexis on this day. Therefore, Shannon made sure to let everyone know how she felt, which is why she and Katie are now feuding. Purportedly, Katie filmed her meltdown, and then she allegedly showed her footage to Alexis. Now, Shannon is seeing red, and this is how Katie is choosing to respond.

On Instagram, Katie posted a clipped version of her RHOC Season 19 intro. “I swear to tell the truth. The whole truth, and nothing but my truth,” Katie says, as the theme song for RHOC plays in the background. Then, using her captain, Katie poked fun at her current struggles on Bravo.

“‘Cause the hate campaign ain’t workin’ at all,'” Katie penned. Katie then tagged Megan Thee Stallion, whose lyrics match her current unbothered vibes. Luckily for her, the bulk of the comments that quickly poured in were in support of Katie. As many have since noted, Katie has done nothing that the other women on her cast have not done to help push their storylines and ratings along on RHOC.

Now, Katie is experiencing what she is labeling as a “hate campaign.” She has apologized many times. Yet, she is still getting dubbed as the most evil person ever by Shannon. Godspeed, Katie.

The Real Housewives of Orange County airs Thursdays at 9/8c on Bravo. It streams on Hayu in the UK and Ireland.
