Alexis Bellino now claims John Janssen never threatened to release the video of a drunken Shannon Beador pre-DUI. The Real Housewives of Orange County ‘friend of’ was a guest on Virtual Reali-Tea to try to backtrack her controversial remarks about essentially blackmailing the popular RHOC star.
Slip of the tongue?
“I didn’t mean to blurt that out,” began Jesus Jugs. “Some of the women in the group are very close with me and did know about the videos already, but they never would have gone there. But, a lot of the time you see me talking about John or Shannon, is because I’m being prodded and pushed to talk about it. Even though I don’t want to mention it, you don’t see that.”
“That night, I did mention the videos, it was late. We’d been filming all day long. I was tired.” Tirelessly, Alexis continued, “His name and her name just kept coming up. I was fed up. Everyone is in support of Shannon, I’m like, ‘Do I need to just show the effing videos? Somebody needs to take accountability here and somebody needs to get off my back.”
“It was just the wrong timing. We didn’t intend for it to happen like that – or at all. John’s in sole custody of those videos. He’s never once said he was going to show them, or had any intentions of showing them. Unless, Shannon wanted to personally come sit and watch them with us.”
“That is something I would put the toothpaste back in the tube about.”
NAME ‘EM!
Jesus Jugs acknowledged with Bravo TV stars knew about the videos. “Tamra and Heather had known about” the videos.
“We were venting to the them and trying to ask them advice. ‘How do I film with this woman? How do I do this now?’ I found out after I started filming about the video. I didn’t know prior; I don’t know if I would have signed on knowing all of that stuff. Just knowing I had to be in the same room with her and try to work with her. But, then it was too late. I was already in.”
