Real Housewives of Orange County is back for Season 18, and things couldn’t be more messy. Alexis Bellino is making her long-awaited return to the show and bringing enough drama to drive Shannon Beador crazy. Alexis and Shannon may be the main feud of the season, but there’s plenty of chaos amongst the entire crew to last us through the season.
Alexis made waves right off the bat during the RHOC premiere by explaining the origin story of her new relationship. She’s dating John Janssen. If that name sounds familiar, it’s because he’s the guy Shannon has been dating for years. Yup, the one she was fighting with the night of her DUI. To make matters even more wild, Alexis and John met at The Quiet Woman, the restaurant made famous by one of Shannon’s many blow-ups on the show. The Quiet Woman became the unofficial Real Housewives star during the RHOC premiere this week.
The Quiet Woman picks sides
Even though Shannon is staking her claim in The Quiet Woman, Alexis isn’t going down without a fight. During the premiere, she threw a dig by saying that Shannon didn’t have ownership in The Quiet Woman. “I’ve been going there for over two decades,” Alexis said in a confessional. Now, the restaurant itself is chiming in to pick a side in this messy nonsense.
The owners of The Quiet Woman reposted the clip of Alexis talking about their restaurant on Instagram after the RHOC premiere. “We ? you @alexis_bellino! We’ve known you for decades – you are as beautiful on the inside as you are on the outside,” the caption read. Alexis wrote back that she loved the staff back in a comment. It sounds like the Quiet Woman is #TeamAlexis in this fight, even though Shannon was the one who put them on a national stage.
Real Housewives of Orange County continues on Thursdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
