ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA: 'Real Housewives of Orange County' star Shannon Beador called out her ex-boyfriend John Janssen as an "avoider" in the recently released episode of the show. Even though Shannon kept her relationship with John private, she confessed to Tamra Judge of being irritated with John's excuses.

John does not stay at Shannon's house. Referring to it, Shannon said to Tamra, "I'll be honest with you, I get really upset when John and I don't spend a lot of time together or when he says 'I gotta go home, I got the dog, I gotta be up in the morning, there's chaos at your hose with your girls...'"

Shannon then stated, "He's an avoider like I'm a communicator, he's an avoider." Shannon then revealed to have been irritated by the fact that she and John have never traveled together outside of work.

Did 'RHOC' star Shannon Beador know that John Janssen was not into her?

Shannon clearly states in 'RHOC' Season 17 that she had feelings about things going south with John. She said, "There is a part of me that says, 'Is he really in it?'" 

Tamra further asked Shannon, "Do you think maybe he is afraid to get married?" Shannon replied, "Maybe."

Indeed, the reality star hinted that she had a sense that there was something wrong in her relationship with John. 

Despite addressing the issue, Shannon claimed that she and John did not talk about the issue they were facing in the relationship. She said, "We don't talk about it."

Why is Shannon Beador in a feud with 'RHOC' fellow mates?

Shannon accepts in 'RHOC' Season 17 that her relationship has a lot of issues. However, the reality star does not want anyone else to talk about it.

She said, "These are issues that John and I need to figure out and it's none of Heather Debrow, Emily Simpson, or Gina Kirschenheiter's business."

Shannon slammed her fellow mates saying, "Their opinions mean nothing to me." Shannon looked out for a private relationship and not getting it led her to lash out in anger.
