RHOC Cast Shakeups Ahead Of Season 19
Shannon Beador joined the main cast of The Real Housewives of Orange County in Season 9. Alexis Bellino was long gone by then. She was on the show from seasons 5-8. She returned in a part-time role for Season 18 after she began dating Shannon’s ex-boyfriend. Alexis Bellino and John Janssen got engaged in the summer of 2024 after dating for only nine months.

Tamra Judge, Heather Dubrow, Gina Kirschenheiter, Emily Simpson, Jennifer Pedranti, and Katie Ginella are all expected to return. Furthermore, Tamra Judge’s nemesis, Gretchen Rossi, is also returning as a “friend” of the cast.
Bravo has yet to reveal when RHOC returns. But in the meantime, viewers can watch Shannon Beador and a few others from the Real Housewives franchise on the dating series Love Hotel, which airs Sundays on Bravo.
