At a lunch with fellow cast member Emily Simpson, Shannon vented her frustrations, recounting a confrontation with the gym owner, Alex. According to Shannon, the issue began when Alexis reportedly bragged about her and John’s intimate life, claiming they had sex “four times a day.” The gym owner took the matter seriously and questioned Alexis about her comments.
“[The owner] said, ‘We don’t want any drama here,’” Shannon explained. “And then Alexis said, ‘I’m a good Christian girl,’ and he said something like, ‘Oh, a good Christian girl talks about her sex life?’”
The situation escalated when John reacted angrily, reportedly shouting, “‘F you, F you, we’re never coming back here,’” and accusing Shannon of being behind the drama. “It’s like, no I’m not,” Shannon retorted.
However, Alexis believed that the only way the gym owner could have learned about the intimate details was through Shannon, given that Shannon was the only mutual friend they shared and had not been to the gym in six months.
“All I know is we’ve been training with this guy for three or four months and then all of a sudden [Shannon] showed up,” Alexis told Tamra Judge, who suggested Shannon might be responsible for the gym owner’s knowledge.
“There’s no way he’s going to know about a luncheon where I bring up sex,” Alexis added in her confessional. “The only culprit to it is Shannon.”
In a conversation with Alexis and Tamra, Jenn Pedranti speculated that Shannon might feel overwhelmed by Alexis’s presence in her life, noting that Alexis was “everywhere,” from hanging out with Shannon’s friends to frequenting the same gym.
“I’ve known Tamra longer than she has, so don’t say that’s her f—ing friends,” Alexis snapped. “I’ve been friends with you for way longer, I’m very close to Heather. Does she get ownership now?”
As Shannon recounted her side of the story, Emily humorously compared the situation to a “very Single White Female” scenario. Shannon admitted feeling that Alexis was mimicking her life. “Is Alexis trying to live the life that I had?” Shannon questioned. “She’s dating my ex-boyfriend, she’s getting love bombed like I did, they’re going to the same restaurants, they’re riding on the boat, they go to the same gym, he took her to the same hotel for her birthday that he took me for mine.”
“Alexis, good luck trying to be me,” Shannon added, emphasizing her frustration with the situation.
Meanwhile, Alexis has made it clear that she has no intention of returning to the gym. Her primary concern is that Shannon does not speak ill of John. “She will never do that,” Tamra quipped.
“The truth is coming out whether she wants to do it or not,” Alexis responded, adding that John “isn’t gonna hold his mouth forever. He’s over it.”
The ongoing tension between Shannon, Alexis, and John continues to captivate viewers as The Real Housewives of Orange County delves into the complexities of their intertwined lives. Fans will have to stay tuned to see how the drama unfolds and whether these feuding personalities can find common ground.
The Real Housewives of Orange County airs Thursday nights, at 9 p.m. ET, on Bravo.
