RHOC's John Janssen Brutally Shades Ex Shannon Beador While Gushing Over Alexis Bellino Romance
View Date:2024-12-23 23:20:11
John Janssen is done keeping quiet about his breakup with ex, The Real Housewives of Orange County star Shannon Beador.
“I wanna say that my relationship with Shannon was real,” the businessman told former Real Housewives producer Carlos King on the July 30 episode of the Reality With the King podcast. “She has a wonderful side to her. But I think people out there just assume John was the problem in the relationship, and I would just challenge people to think about what it might be like to be with Shannon.”
And John—who broke up with the reality star in November 2022—didn't hold back when addressing their rocky, three-year romance.
“What was it like?" he continued. "It was, 'What it is like to fail every day, all day, every day? To fail at everything?' That's what it felt like to date her.”
Despite John's brutal shade, the 61-year-old did acknowledge that he and Shannon had "good times" in their relationship and that the Bravo star "has a wonderful side to her." But, ultimately, they weren't compatible.
“I tried very, very hard. I did," John admitted. "But we were never meant to be together."
John has since moved on with Shannon's RHOC costar Alexis Bellino, who he called "perfect."
“This is what it's supposed to be like," he said of their whirlwind romance, which began last fall. “There's a lot of stress that's gone from my life, and, you know, it's sad.”
And while Alexis recently revealed she and John have already talked about getting engaged and married, Shannon understandably has her doubts about her ex dating her costar.
"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," the 60-year-old told E! News earlier this month. "I'm grateful that John isn't in my life because we had a very toxic relationship. I'm grateful."
See the drama continue to play out when The Real Housewives of Orange County airs Thursdays at 9 p.m. on Bravo.
