“Real Housewives of Orange County” star Tamra Judge addressed rumors that her former castmate and friend, Alexis Bellino, is dating Shannon Beador’s ex-boyfriend, John Janssen. While recording the November 28 episode her podcast, “Two Ts In A Pod,” co-hosted by former RHOBH star, Teddi Mellencamp, Judge referenced that Bellino was photographed with Janssen at the Corona Del Mar establishment, The Quiet Woman. According to Judge, the pair “are not dating.” She also stated that Bellino sent her a text to share she appreciated her support.
“Her and I had a text exchange – well actually she texted me and said, ‘Thank you so much for kind of sticking up for me on your podcast.’ ‘Cause we talked about this when it all went down [on ‘Two Ts in a Pod’]. And I said, ‘No worries, it’s so just ridiculous that you can’t even take a picture nowadays and it’s like oh my god, now they are dating.’ She’s like, ‘No I just met him. Like just got to know him,’” said Bellino.
Judge also stated Bellino does not have a friendship with Beador. She explained Bellino left RHOC before Beador joined the cast during season 9.
“They’ve never worked together,” said Judge.

“We had a falling out. I’m not going to say but I’m not very happy with her right now. I think it’s something we can work through. But we had a disagreement before Thanksgiving and I have not spoken to her since then,” said Judge.

Bellino addressed her picture with Janssen while being interviewed by Mellencamp on behalf of Extra TV in November 2023. She stated that she met Janssen the night the photo was taken.

“I don’t think so. But I will never say never. What I’m saying right now is I’m really happy with where my life is. I’m really content with my life right now. And the people that are around me. Including John Janssen,” said the mother of one.
