Who is Shannon Beador dating now? 'RHOC' star goes on trip with 'super fit' mystery guy after John Janssen split
ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA: Shannon Storms Beador returns to 'The Real Housewives of Orange County' nearly four months after being arrested for suspected DUI and hit-and-run. However, fans should not expect any romance from the Bravo star because she is presently single.
After splitting from John Janssen, Shannon is reentering the dating scene. During the Jeff Lewis Live broadcast from March of last year, a cast member of 'RHOC' disclosed as much before disclosing information about a specific suitor whom Jeff claimed to have already met.
The host of Radio Andy hinted, "Shannon had a date last night." "We’re not gonna say the name, but she brought a gentleman caller with her to dinner [and] I liked him a lot."
Shannon said the unidentified man was "very handsome" and "super, super sweet." Not only that, but he's "super fit," she said, "and that's a good influence for me."
They were supposedly introduced by one of her "core four" friends, and while Shannon was initially hesitant to go on a date, it appears that the night was a success. As she put it, "I thought, 'OK, it’s a dinner. Like, I’m not gonna like this guy,' but he’s super sweet."
Shannon and John had broken up less than five months prior to this date. Shannon had previously planned to meet the new guy again following the date.
"I’m gonna see him tomorrow." Shannon remarked, "We’re gonna go to dinner with my core three. The four couldn’t make it, so [it’s] the three of us."
However, it is not all that the two have planned. Shannon traveled to Cabo for an eight-day vacation that she and John had originally planned together, and while she primarily rested on her own, she said that her new guy was planning to join her "for part of it."
Shannon posted a picture of the unidentified man on Instagram in April 2023, confirming her remarks that he was "super fit," even though his identity is still unknown. It's evident from the post that the man has met Shannon's children and that everyone in the group has visited Mexico together.
In an interview from July 2023, Shannon disclosed that the "brief relationship" had terminated during the trip to Mexico.
When did 'RHOC' star Shannon Beador and John Janssen split?
In late 2022, three years after they first dated, John made the decision to end things. In a January 2023 interview with PEOPLE, Shannon made the announcement.
Shannon revealed to the magazine, "He told me he was done with the relationship. And to hear what he said to me then was absolutely devastating."
Shannon said they "were in a great place," so she "was blindsided by the breakup."
According to John, the choice to end the relationship was "super hard" for him to make. "The last thing I wanted to do is hurt Shannon, but I do think I did the right thing for the both of us," he told PEOPLE.
Who is John Janssen dating now?
Here's a crucial lesson: never give up on love, even if it comes to you at the most unexpected time. John is practically a living witness since, roughly a year after his separation from Shannon from 'RHOC', the California businessman welcomed a new girl into his life, and it's none other than Alexis Bellino.
In an Instagram post from February 2024, two months after they had confirmed their relationship, John talked candidly about his "love" for Alexis. According to reports, John and Alexis met through mutual friends.
John had spent eighteen years in marriage to his ex-wife before he started dating Alexis and Shannon. 2011 saw the two become divorced for good. John is the father of two adult girls and one boy.
Some people might not be completely aware of when Alexis and John started dating, but ever since they made their love connection public, the two have been inseparable. It was reported that Alexis began seeing John in November 2023, having called off her engagement to Andy "Drew" Bohn in September 2023.
On Christmas Day 2023, the 'RHOC' alum made their relationship official on Instagram by sharing a picture of themselves with two rings he had given her. As we fast-forward to the present, we will witness the depth of Alexis and John's passion in Season 18 of 'RHOC', which begins on July 11.
Shannon Beador responds to 'RHOC' costar Alexis Bellino and John Janssen’s engagement plans
Alexis, a 'RHOC' star, recently revealed that she and John are considering getting engaged. In truth, she stated that they had looked at rings.
Shannon, who dated John for three years, is now reacting to the news, stating she expects nothing less from someone who lives his life the way he does.
Fans will recall that Alexis was dating John, which was reported in the press. Of course, people's emotions varied, given that he had dated Alexis's previous co-star.
Then it was reported that Alexis will return to 'RHOC' as a friend, and it appears that this will be part of the drama for the forthcoming season. Shannon recently spoke with E! News about John and Alexis' potential engagement.
Shannon isn't shocked John is going "fast," because he did the same with her.
She said to the outlet, "That’s John Janssen. At two weeks, he said I was his person and his future, so they’re following the John Janssen course. I didn’t get a ring, but I thought right away that I was going to spend the rest of my life with John. He moves very quickly."
Shannon says she thinks the relationship might not be entirely real, even if she is thrilled for the two.
She states, "Good for them, be happy. From the outside looking in, it looks to me that there are ulterior motives on both sides for them to be in a relationship, so we’ll see. I’m grateful that John isn’t in my life because we had a very toxic relationship. I’m grateful."
When 'RHOC' airs again on Bravo on July 11 at 9 pm EST on the Bravo channel, fans will be able to witness the difficult beginning between Alexis Bellino and Shannon Storms Beador
