Why did Shannon Beador and John Janssen split up?
John Janssen broke up with Shannon Beador in November 2022 after nearly four years of dating. The reason was that they simply weren't compatible with each other anymore and they had frequent problems in their relationship.
They publicly spoke about their break-up only in January 2023. During Season 17 of 'RHOC', Shannon's fellow cast members were concerned with the couple's dynamic as Heather Dubrow went about gossiping about the relationship to Tamara Judge, her best friend. In Episode 10 of the same season, Shannon confronted Heather and asked her to stop spreading rumors.
How did Shannon Beador react to 'RHOC' star Alexis Bellino and John Janssen's relationship?
Shannon Beador, ex-girlfriend of John, took to Instagram with a cryptic post following the dating rumors. Shannon's post -- about healing and laughter and captioned 'Stronger Relationships'-- even though it did not directly address the situation raised several eyebrows, as netizens thought this might be related to her feelings on the relationship.
Shannon Beador was particularly hurt with John as he left her during her lawsuit with Jim Bellino, which left her financially devastated and emotionally drained. Jim Bellino sued Shannon Beador and Tamara Judge in 2018 over comments they made about his business during a podcast. However, Shannon Beador won the defamation case against him. Beador was awarded $137,340.25 of the $220,000 of her legal fees as per People.
She has made it clear that even though John knew about this he moved forward with his relationship with Alexis. Shannon speaking to E! said that she was truly 'hurt' by the budding romance. Even the Internet sided with Shannon saying they were "happy for Shannon" being away from that man and that "Shannon deserves better".
