Real Housewives Spoilers – Shannon Beador Heads To Rehab

Weeks have passed since Real Housewives Of Orange County (RHOC) star Shannon Beador’s arrest. The charges involved a DUI as well as a hit-and-run. And RHOC fans expressed shock to learn that Shannon hit a house, then parked in the middle of the street and pretend to be walking her dog Archie. But now Beador claims that she feels ready to take “responsibility and accountability” for her behavior, according to Reality Blurb.

And that means heading to an outpatient treatment program. However, RHOC fans questioned the fact that Shannon also plans to go ahead with her Tres Amigas comedy tour. The rehab that Beador chose offers an outpatient “behavioral wellness program with an alcohol component.”

As a result, the RHOC star reportedly plans to avoid alcohol amid her upcoming comedy tour with her friends and Real Housewives co-stars Tamra Judge and Vicki Gunvalson. The trio will hop on stage again on November 16 in Phoenix, Arizona.

Real Housewives Spoilers – RHOC Stars See ‘Irony’ In Shannon’s DUI

But some RHOC fans wondered how Shannon’s co-star Gina Kirschenheiter would feel. Beador repeatedly criticized Gina on Real Housewives Of Orange County after her DUI. But although Gina noted the “irony” in Shannon’s arrest, she also offered support. 

“When you’re that out of control or you’re spiraling and you’re that down and you’re pushing people away and you’re losing friends because of your behavior, you need someone,” reflected Gina. “And sometimes maybe it is an unexpected person to reach in and pull you up.” As a result, the RHOC star feels an “obligation to reach down and to like pull her up a bit and say, ‘You know what Shannon, I’ve got you’.”

And another RHOC star, Emily Simpson, offered her views. “I think the most important thing is what is her next step that’s going to help her get to a better place and a healthier and happier place in her life? Because I feel like this is kind of rock bottom,” commented Emily. 

Real Housewives Spoilers – Cops Describe Shannon Beador’s ‘Wild Ride’

Police on the scene of Shannon’s arrest discovered the RHOC star pretending to walk her dog after what TMZ described as a “wild ride in her car that ended with her slamming into someone’s Newport Beach home, damaging a concrete planter and nearly crashing through the front door.” And surveillance footage of Beador’s allegedly intoxicated ride reveals her speeding through a residential neighborhood before she crashed into the home.

Police booked Shannon on two misdemeanors, DUI alcohol as well as hit-and-run. And Beador has volunteered to pay for the damage that she caused to the Newport Beach home. She also took time to research treatment alternatives before choosing the outpatient rehab.
