‘RHOC’ Star Shannon Beador Calls Ex John Janssen A ‘Monster’

As Real Housewives of Orange County star Shannon Beador finally learns what her ex, John Janssen, is holding over her, she labels him a ‘monster.”

Shannon Beador Says John Janssen Is Trying To Extort Her

On the most recent episode of RHOC, Shannon revealed that while the cast was enjoying a group trip to Napa Valley, she was facing a deadline from John about repaying a $75,000 loan.

John and his now-fiancee, Alexis Bellino, have been telling everyone but Shannon that if she does not repay the loan, they are going to release footage from the night of her DUI.

Footage that, according to the duo, could “ruin” Shannon’s life.

Ahead of the deadline, she offered him half, which he denied, Shannon admitted through tears.

“I just feel like it’s extortion,” Shannon said before noting he recently made a bundle after selling off his share of his insurance company.

“What is most important to John is people think he’s a good guy, and this is step one, try to make Shannon look bad, and he’s really taking drastic steps.”

Later in the episode, Shannon went to a spa with Katie Ginella, Emily Simpson, and Gina Kirschenheiter and finally learned what fans had known for weeks—what was on the videos.

When former lawyer Emily suggests she just pay John the money, Gina “accidentally” reveals that Alexis had incriminating footage from John’s ring camera.

The footage allegedly shows Shannon coming close to running over John’s daughter before she ran her car into the planter box of a Newport Beach home.

“From the night of my DUI?” a visibly shaken Shannon asked.

“What are the details? I don’t even remember.”

“You know what you guys, I am working so f—ing hard on myself,” she said. “He is trying to take me down. I’m so angry right now.”

“He’s a monster,” she added through tears.

The revelation made Shannon contact her lawyers and tell him to pay him “whatever he wants.”

RHOC Fans Remain Team Shannon, ‘I Am Going To War’

Following the episode, RHOC fans immediately took to social media to support Shannon.

“I’ve never seen someone shake like this. I am going to war for Shannon Beador. This is insane,” wrote one fan on X.

Another shared, “It’s absolutely heartbreaking to watch what she is going through. The fact that Bravo brought Alexis back and stood by as they extorted money from Shannon is disgusting. Bravo needs to clean house!”

“If Shannon Beador has 1,000,000 fans, I am one of them. If Shannon Beador has only 1 fan, that’s me. If Shannon Beador has no fans, it’s because I died. We must protect her at all costs,” wrote a third.
