This comes as no surprise. She seemed unhappy for some time.
"Shannon Beador and her husband, David, have separated after 17 years of marriage ... TMZ has learned. The 'Real Housewives of Orange County' star told her fellow housewives Friday while filming the season 12 reunion show. She says David and her split a little more than a month ago. Shannon released a statement saying she felt alone in her marriage and tried to do what she could to keep the family together ... but it wasn't working in their relationship."

I can't wait for single Kelly and Shannon next season.

I feel sad for her. Any long term marriage that doesn't work out for whatever reason(s) is sad.

That is sad. She tried to get over his affair for so long and seemed so fragile. I actually liked a few scenes with David this season.

I feel bad for her and I wonder if it was something she just couldnt get over. There were times when I thought he genuinely wanted to fix things but her heart was broken.

I hope now she can start to put her life back together. This season has not been a good look for her, she's been way over the top emotionally.

That's always sad news. Not surprising, like others have said.
Once she gets through it all, I have a feeling it will lead to a much happier, healthier Shannon.

It's about time. She can't let go of the hurt and she's making him and herself miserable. I hope she can get back to happiness.

One of the few times I would say "finally" when somebody's marriage is ending. She is miserable and insecure (with reason) and I think that he's still been cheating and is (or was) emotionally or verbally abusive. Just a hunch / my opinion though - not based on anything I know to be a fact. I think they will both be happier apart in the long run.

I think that being on the show and having everything played out for the public to see made it difficult for her to get over the affair. That and having other cast members constantly bringing up the affair/alleged abuse. She should have never returned for another season if she really wanted to give her marriage a chance. Of course her marriage still might have failed, but at least her struggles, fights and outbursts wouldn't be documented and she and her kids would be saved that embarrassment. |

I just can't figure them out. She so often gives off an impression of not really engaging with him - like, I know she's deeply upset, so I don't know if she's just trying to emotionally protect herself or what it is - but she actually seems more "done" than he does. Going strictly off how the show has been edited (which I know is biased right there), he has seemed to try to connect more than she has. When he blows her off, it's situations where I get it (like where she's expecting high praise for cooking quinoa, and it's clear he doesn't really like it but is trying to be civil, but she keeps pushing the point). She seems to have a hard time truly engaging her emotions with anyone except her kids (somewhat) and Kelly.
I can definitely say that as people, I couldn't be married to either one of them. But she is so so needy with everyone - and I get it, she's been majorly hurt - but she seems to need more than any human can give. He seems like he tries, and maybe it's a legit case of too little, too late, but even when he tries, she rebuffs it. It's like David can't give enough, so she rejects him completely.
I think they may have been able to work it out with serious therapy for both of them, individually and jointly. But that requires massive commitment, and maybe they're just beyond that point. It's certainly sad, but I hope they both find what they need.

That's sad- but it will be better for her in the long run. He seemed to be moving away from her and family things. Where he once seemed invested in making it work, he just seemed done this season. And though she really tried, I think she needed a better man to work through such a hard thing. He's just not up for this challenge, even though it was his own making. I think everything he did or didn't do just worked against what she needed.

I wonder if this is why they downsized houses? He knew he wanted a divorce and would probably be stuck still paying the mortgage when he moves out so he moved his family to a smaller house.

The cast of that show drives me nuts. Tamara's shrieking is like nails on a chalkboard. Vicki is a huge liar and I still think she knew that Brooks was phony. Who doesn't take their SO to chemo and other major oncology appointments? However, I like Shannon. I think she's been terribly depressed and focused on her weight rather than her emotional issues. She needs to learn to love herself and treat herself w/respect, not allowing anyone else to treat her otherwise. Anyone who does those shows is crazy. I am enjoying RHOD, because those women are truly awful to eachother. Who would ever want friends like that?

I can't say that I am surprised, anyone could see that coming.
Not sure what he is like when they aren't filming, but he seemed so cold and distant to me this season. And how many times do we tell woman that they get over an affair when they get over it, in their timeline, not their husbands.
I like Shannon and hope this is what she needs to get her life back together.

Well, its about time. He is so smarmy. She is an out of control alcoholic so pray for their girls.

Add me to the finally camp. Hopefully without the weight of an unhappy marriage they both will be able to become healthier people.

Such a shame for the kids especially with all the publicity . They will be better in the long run with two ( hopefully ) happy parents, though .

I think I read that they had it on the market for quite some time and finally lowered the price significantly in order to sell. Personally, I think the house had too many bad memories for Shannon being that they owned it during the time he cheated. |

Vicki is a huge liar and I still think she knew that Brooks was phony. Who doesn't take their SO to chemo and other major oncology appointments? She explained why because she had a full time job. Chemo is every 2 weeks, a work-a-holic like her is not going to take off to sit for hours at doctors appointments when he could easily uber. She said she had gone to one appointment with him but sat out in the lobby. I think she took him at his word and when she did question him because others were pushing her, he got upset that she would question him and the conversation ended. I think she was so in love she didn't really investigate. She's one of those women that is incredible smart at work but not in their love life. I think the fact that when her boyfriend affected her relationship with her daughter, and she didn't drop him because of that, just shows you how weak she is. She can't be alone, she always needs to have a man. But also Brooks was the only story line 2 seasons ago. She's been on this show for a long time, she does what she needs to do to remain a cast member which in turns boosts her business' profile and makes her more money. Look at how her business has grown which she promotes in her blog posts. She did say at the previous finale "At the time I believed he had cancer" to imply she may feel otherwise now. But to have all the other women screaming at her in a round table discussion, I don't blame her for not saying specifically "yes you're right he lied." She's probably thinking Fuck you all for treating me like this. |

Vicki's problem is that she can't admit that she played a part in the whole Brooks cancer deception. I'm sure she was fooled at first, but later she knew something wasn't right and she lied for him. But she sees herself as a victim, not an accomplice.
I hope this separation is a good thing for Shannon. The screeching makes me nuts, but Vicki, Kelly, and that creepy, bug-eyed Lydia would send me over the edge too.

OK, I just watched the Iceland part 1 last night. Lydia and the group text thing? Granted, Tamra should have said something like "Hey, Lyd, Shannon told me you were upset that I left you off the group text. I'm so sorry, it was a total accident!" The apology she gave was definitely half-assed. But the huge issue that Lydia made of it was ridiculous. I almost felt like the producers told her she needed to make a stink out of something to be interesting. I'm glad that Vicki said something to her later, and that Lydia tried to fix it, but she was seriously behaving like she was 5!

I wonder if overly tired, missing family, and work pressures contributed to it. Or it could have been for the cameras. 😜 |

I gave up watching after a couple of episodes this season, but am firmly in the 'it should have happened years ago' camp. She was NEVER going to let it go and a couple can only live together for so long under that cloud.
I more than likely won't watch next season if she's still on it either - only thing worse than a woman whining because her husband cheated and she decided to stay but wouldn't get past it is seeing a woman saying she stayed after he'd been unfaithful, choosing to miss out the bit about her being an unhinged, bitter person who would't get past it and whining.
Stay or don't - either way, make the best of it and move on. If you can't move on, you'll never move on!!!

I feel bad for he children - how many times have we seen them taking on more than kids their age should? Worrying about the relationship between their parents and almost being the voices of sanity in that relationship. |
