RHOC Drama Unfolds: Alexis Bellino Calls Out Shannon Beador’s DUI Sympathy!

Alexis Bellino says that Shannon Beador doesn’t deserve sympathy from her RHOC co-stars following her DUI because she continues to drink.

In a preview for this week’s episode of RHOC, Emily Simpson confronts Alexis Bellino over her threatening to release video footage from the night of Shannon Beador’s DUI.

Last week, Shannon Beador learned that her ex-boyfriend John Janssen has ring camera footage from the night of her DUI. The footage allegedly shows Shannon almost running over John’s daughter while attempting to leave his home. Shannon was emotional learning that this footage existed and that Alexis and John were telling the women of RHOC about it.

John and Alexis’ attempt to hurt and further embarrass Shannon seemed to have backfired, as many members of the RHOC vocalized their anger with the couple.

In a clip for Thursday’s all-new episode of RHOC, Emily Simpson confronts Alexis Bellino for taking this too far in her ongoing feud with Shannon Beador.



“I wanted to talk to you woman to woman. It just seems like it’s getting dirty and it’s getting salacious and it’s getting mean,” Emily says.

“There’s nothing mean on our side, or the videos would be out already, wouldn’t they? So back off,” Alexis fired back.

Emily noted, “But you’ve told people about them.”

Alexis raises her voice and says, “I don’t know what you want me to do. I can’t put the toothpaste back in the tube. ”

Emily tells Alexis she needs to have some compassion for Shannon; however, Alexis disagrees. In her confessional, Alexis admits that she has some sympathy for Shannon but questions why Emily is confronting her about bringing up the existence of the footage from Shannon’s DUI.



“Do I feel bad for a woman who is distraught? Yes, but also, why would you bring it up in the middle of a freaking charity event weekend?” Alexis questions.

Alexis then claims that the whole situation has caused her grief and stress. She also made it clear that she is sick of people pitying Shannon.

“I’ve been f-ed over bad in this, too. So, I’m really sick of everyone taking pity on her when she ran into a f–king house and is still drinking and has been horrible to him [John]. And I’m still trying, so I’m not sure what else I can do for you guys,” Alexis says.

Emily realizes she won’t be able to reach Alexis because she is too wrapped up in defending John to see reason.

“I think she’s just on the John Janssen defense train and she can’t get off of it,” Emily quips.
