After three and a half years together, Shannon Beador and John Janssen have ended their relationship.
The 58-year-old “Real Housewives of Orange County” star said on Wednesday that Janssen, 59, breaking up with her in late November, just one week after she wrapped up Season 17 of the Bravo series, “blindsided” her.
“We were in a great place,” she told People. “But seven days later, when the cameras were down, it was a completely different story. He told me he was done with the relationship. And to hear what he said to me then was absolutely devastating.”
The reality star admitted that she “never loved anyone more” than Janssen. She was previously married to David Beador for 18 years.
“I was hopeful this was the man I was going to spend the rest of my life with,” she told the magazine. “I wanted it to work out. I’ve never loved anyone like I’ve loved John. But clearly, he didn’t feel the same way.”
