BravoCon Spoilers – Shannon Beador Heads To BravoCon
BravoCon 2023 gave Real Housewives of Orange County (RHOC) star Shannon Beador the chance for a comeback after her arrest and sentencing on a DUI charge. But when Shannon showed up to participate in the RHOC panel, she didn’t know if she would receive cheers or boos.
However, the RHOC star boldly stepped out amid tears. And she shared how she looked at her life after the arrest. The moderator for the panel began by allowing Shannon to talk about what he called the “elephant in the room,” noted the Daily Beast.

“I made a terrible, terrible mistake,” started off the RHOC star. “And—I’m going to cry—I’m incredibly grateful that I didn’t hurt anybody.” And that comment sparked cheers from the audience, supporting Beador. “But I, on my own, just completed a 28-day behavior wellness program with an alcohol component. I have been able to focus on elements of my life that were unhealthy and toxic. And I believe that today, I am going in a good and positive direction.”
BravoCon Spoilers – Vicki Gunvalson Seeks Return
However, BravoCon also offered RHOC stars Tamra Judge and Heather Dubrow the chance to clash. The most recent season saw the two feuding. And that led the audience to anticipate another verbal war.
But the OG of Orange County, Vicki Gunvalson, stole the spotlight. And fans wanted to know if Vicki would return in a lead cast role. Because season 17 saw the OG appear only in a friend-of role, Gunvalson seemed upset.
And Vicki shared, “I don’t know how this will all play out next year.” But she admitted she lacks a contract. However, she then complained, “I personally don’t like going in as a friend because I didn’t know what was going on! I hadn’t been there throughout the whole season. And I talked to Heather, Tamra, and Shannon about it and I said: I’m not a friend!”

But Judge spilled her views on Vicki. “She was happy, and then she was sad, and then she cried,” admitted Tamra. “And then she said, ‘Why do Gina and Emily have a job and I don’t?!” (The latter comment references Emily Simpson and Gina Kirschenheiter, both of whom earned Gunvalson’s wrath.)
But Vicki then admitted she does feel envious. And she said, “Emily has said it very well: I have a little bit of envy and insecurity. It’s hard to understand why some people get asked back,” she added. “AND I DIDN’T!” Gunvalson screamed.
