Shannon Beador Shows Off 14 Pound Weight Loss With Svelte Snap

“Real Housewives of Orange County” star Shannon Storms Beador has dropped 14 pounds and she looks amazing. She posted a new snap of her progress on Instagram, noting that she’s close to her target weight after months of hard work.

The Real for Real founder credits clean eating, exercise, detoxing and balancing her hormones for her progress. Beador posed in an all black ensemble of leggings, a Real for Real shirt and a black baseball hat with her company’s flower logo on it.

“Today I am down 14 pounds with just a little more to go,” she said, adding that she lifts up her shirt to show off her tight tummy in her stories.

57 year old Beador has been on a wellness journey over the course of her time as a Housewife, and she has been making huge strides in recent years now that she’s in a much better place following her divorce.

Though she’s always been known for her love of natural remedies and unconventional treatments, she gained weight following her tense divorce from David Beador in 2017 after 17 years of marriage.

Once her divorce finalized she has been focusing on her journey of self-improvement, starting her own wellness company and finding happiness with her new beau John Janssen.

With daughter Sophie already in college and twins Adeline and Stella soon to leave home after high school graduation this spring, Beador is looking ahead to life as an empty nester and her weight loss has been one aspect in her quest to reinvent herself.

Things haven’t always been rosé all day for Shannon Storms Beador, who joined the Real Housewives cast in season 9. She and her ex-husband made quite the impression on the other Housewives and House Husbands after a tension-filled dinner party where David constantly belittled Shannon in one of the cringiest introductory dinners in Housewives history.

Despite the tension at the party, Shannon and David continued to insist that they had a happy marriage despite rumors floating around the OC about David’s infidelity. Like so many Housewives before her, Shannon’s relationship started to crumble in front of the cameras.

Shannon fought to keep things as normal as possible for her daughters throughout the divorce. She was supported by several fellow cast members through this difficult time in her life, many of whom had also gone through divorces of their own while on the show. Some of those friendships remain to this day while others have fallen apart, in typical Housewife fashion.

After starting her own healthy cuisine line that debuted to much fanfare on QVC, Beador has moved on to Real for Real Lemon-Aid Daily nutritional support. She designed the immhttps://realforreal.com/une booster to be a healthy, affordable option for all women, and she credits the product with helping her detox during her weight loss journey.

After battling COVID-19 early on in the pandemic, Beador and her daughters are slowly returning to normal. The proud mama recently shared a photo of twins Stella and Adeline with the hashtag “all grown up.”

Beador returned to the "RHOC" for season 16, which premiered in December 2021. Not surprisingly, there have already been arguments, fights and controversies galore, which is part and parcel for the OC crew.

Adding to the fray this season is the return of Heather Dubrow, who clashed with Beador in the past. Their tense history continues as new controversies came to light early on in the new season after Beador mentioned to fellow Housewives Emily Simpson and Gina Kirschenheiter that her friend Nicole had once sued Dubrow’s husband, Dr. Terry Dubrow. Though the lawsuit was ultimately dropped, resurrecting the past led to some tension between the co-stars.

The resulting kerfuffle was ultimately resolved when Beador offered an apology to Dr. Dubrow. “I want to let you know that I am so, so sorry for any hurt that I've caused. We all know you're a brilliant surgeon with an impeccable reputation, and what I did was wrong. And I'm not that type of person. In due time, I hope that you both will be able to see that,” she said.

Dr. Dubrow admitted to being confused by the whole incident in the first place because, as he put it, “it was so not a thing.”

Needless to say, Beador is putting the right foot forward with her weight loss journey, but the OC drama is never far behind.
