It's safe to say Shannon Beador and Tamra Judge are definitely not amigas anymore.
In fact, the former BFFs had a major falling out while filming The Real Housewives of Orange County's upcoming 18th season after Tamra questioned her costar's drinking habits following Shannon's September 2023 DUI arrest.
"She has no right," Shannon exclusively told E! News. "She has had no part of anything that I have done since my DUI. None. In fact, she left town the day after my DUI. I hear that she's saying, 'I was there for her and I did this.' No you weren't."
Plus, Shannon wasn't expecting her longtime bestie to be so judgmental following her run-in with the law.
"Who made you the judge and jury of what I should and shouldn't be doing in my life?" Shannon added. "Focus on yours, because I'm focusing on mine."
And Shannon, who crashed her car into a Newport Beach, Calif. home last year after a fight with her ex-boyfriend John Janssen, has certainly been taking steps to improve her well-being since the accident.
"After it happened, I was so grateful that no one was hurt because that that would have been just unbearable," the 60-year-old admitted. "I was using alcohol as a coping mechanism. I have in my past in different periods in my lifetime, like when my marriage was ending."
In addition to attending a wellness and alcohol program, the mother of three shared she continues to "work with a trauma therapist and a psychiatrist regularly multiple times a week."
"I feel good about where I am right now," Shannon noted. "I know I continually will have to work on becoming a healthier and better person, but I'm very proud of where I've come at this point."
However, Shannon isn't looking forward to reliving last year's troubles when the new season premieres.
"It was a difficult season for me to film," she admitted. "The DUI was so humiliating for me and then you couple having Alexis Bellino joined the show, it was a lot. But I'm still standing here, so I feel a lot stronger and I'm continually working on myself."
See the drama play out when The Real Housewives of Orange County returns tonight, July 11, at 9 p.m. on Bravo. And keep reading to learn more about season 18.
Following a very difficult year, Shannon Beador is doing her best to move forward as she faces the consequences from her DUI. With her twins in college, this empty-nester is left trying to mend her fractured friendships. However, she’s continuously in the hot seat as her life choices are questioned. Things get awkward for Shannon when her ex-boyfriend’s new girlfriend, Alexis Bellino, threatens to bring damaging information about her past.
No longer a Tres Amiga, Tamra Judge is putting her energy into developing stronger friendships and helping her daughter Sophia, who recently turned 18, navigate her gap year. As Tamra and Eddie enjoy a new home in Big Bear, they also decide it might be time to sell their longtime home in OC. Tamra’s damaged friendship with Shannon is hotly contested as she wonders if Shannon is truly remorseful for her accident. Also, her new improved friendship with Jennifer is put to the test when Eddie and Ryan get into a heated debate.
A longtime friend of Heather and Emily, Alexis Bellino comes in full force ready to make waves. She finds her footing with most of the ladies and starts fresh with Tamra, but she instantly finds herself on shaky ground with Shannon as they face off in a series of high-stakes disputes.
Emily Simpson has gone through an incredible transformation after losing 40 pounds and finds herself trying to adjust to her new healthy lifestyle. Her obsession with the gym has affected her relationship with food, family and friends. When she’s not helping the wrongly convicted as a part of the California Innocence Project, she’s questioning the ladies on everything from integrity to intentions. Her closeness with Tamra causes those around her to wonder if Emily is taking her opinions too far.
Jennifer Pedranti is ready for a fresh start with Tamra while also trying to prove that her boyfriend, Ryan, is worthy of redemption. She feels a lot of her life is up in the air as she waits for her divorce to be finalized and figures out her financial future. While some of the ladies in the group wonder if she has truly learned from her past mistakes, Jennifer finds some commonality with new housewife Katie. As she strives to make new changes and keep her head afloat, it all culminates when Ryan’s name is involved in a national bombshell that rocks Orange County.
Gina Kirschenheiter has leveled up as a realtor, but her professional reputation is called into question after one of the ladies puts her in a sticky situation. Her relationship with Travis takes an unconventional turn when deciding she wants to live separately, but stay together. On top of this, as Gina watches bestie Emily get close to Tamra, she wonders if their friendship will remain the same.
Always on the move, Heather Dubrow and husband Terry find themselves routinely commuting between Orange County and their new estate in Beverly Hills. Their Balboa Bay Club penthouse suite serves as home base with Terry’s practice and his mother around the corner. After many years of friendship, Heather and Gina find themselves at odds over loyalty and betrayal. Heather isn’t quick to warm up to new housewife Katie, and their relationship takes a wrong turn when Katie confronts her about an old rumor.
New to Orange County, Katie Ginella and her husband, professional golf journalist Matt Ginella, recently moved from San Diego. She’s looking to expand her circle of friends while working to launch her own cocktail line. Now ready to learn more about her Korean heritage and connect to her roots, Katie decides to explore her adoption further and meet her birth mother. After meeting the ladies, Katie immediately finds herself smack dab in the middle of the drama and gets a quick lesson in how loyalty works in the OC.
