#RHOC Shannon Beador’s Embarrassed About Violent Restaurant Freak Out Over Weight Gain!

Shannon Beador has started Season 12 of The Real Housewives of Orange County with several bangs — and is addressing the high drama blastoff in her Bravo blog.

Shannon shares her thoughts about the verbal scuffle with returning player, Lydia McLaughlin, at the birthday party — and claims that an agenda had been launched.

“A person that I had just met for the first time would not stop talking about Vicki. I felt like Lydia clearly had an agenda when it came to meeting me and that was to create drama. Mission accomplished, Lydia.”

“And for the cherry on top, Lydia said, “Why would Tamra be friends with someone like this?” She has the audacity to question a four year relationship after one very short exchange with me? Absurd, vicious, and ludicrous are a few words that come to mind.”

Shannon weighs in on the scene that has fans chattering — her interaction with holistic trainer, Mr. WOW, aka “Dr.” Tim Ramirez. Shannon clarifies  that due to their solid relationship, his shocked reaction to her new bod did not bother her. She reiterates that she has ditched blaming Vicki Gunvalson for her plus-sized struggle.

“I would like to be clear once again. I am the only one responsible for gaining 40 pounds. I am the only one who let ridiculous people and words get under my skin. I am the only one that said, “F*** it” and ate and drank whatever I wanted. I’m still kicking myself for some of the choices I made, but everything happens for a reason. Through the difficult process, I am learning again that I am a strong person that can accomplish any goals I set if I work hard and am committed.”

Shannon addresses what was going through her mind during the not-so “Quiet Woman” debacle. She begins by shading Lydia, then moves on to cast nemesis, Kelly Dodd.

“I find it incredulous that Lydia said, “I invited my friend Kelly, but she doesn’t get along with Tamra and Shannon.” If Lydia knew that was the case, then why would she invite Kelly to dinner, especially a dinner that Tamra and I had planned?”

Shannon blames her obsessive weight update jabber on an “emotional day,” and says that she was “caught off guard” by Kelly’s appearance.

“I live blocks from Kelly Dodd and never saw her in a six month period ever, so I was caught off guard when I saw her. When she walked into the bathroom I was at a loss for words so I just started telling her about my earlier meeting with Dr. Tim. I’m not happy I spoke so much about my weight gain, and all I can say was that I had a difficult and emotional day and it was the main thought in my brain at the time.”

Shannon spills her thoughts about Kelly’s snarky comments.

“A lot of people now say that it is Kelly’s pattern to hit below the belt. That doesn’t mean it is right. It’s quite bothersome to see the smile on Kelly’s face when she basically says she enjoys “pushing my buttons” and seeing me “go off the rails.” That’s just not nice.”

Shannon wraps her blog by sharing that she regrets her actions that night.

“Did I overreact at the Quiet Woman? Yes. Was my crying unwarranted? Yes. Was my language completely inappropriate? Yes. Should I have been calmer? Yes. Am is embarrassed? Yes. I wish I would have carried myself in a different way, but I can’t change what happened. I do regret my behavior and have definitely learned from my mistakes of the night.”

Shannon has had a messy start — will she keep the crazy going?
