Shannon Storms Beador closed out the month with a mini-family reunion.
The Real Housewives of Orange County mom packed her bags this week and headed to New York City with her oldest daughter, Sophie Beador. Shannon shared a peek at their travels in a February 23 Instagram photo of her and her girl smiling ear-to-ear on the plane.
“No make up flight to NYC with my girl!” she captioned the post. “We just figured out that the last time we sat next to each other on a flight was when Sophie went to college! Looking forward to spending time with [Sophie] and Adeline [Beador] in NYC!!!”
Inside Shannon Beador's NYC getaway
Sophie moved to the Big Apple in 2024, just months after graduating from Baylor University. Her little sister Adeline was already living in the city studying at Parsons School of Design. Shannon’s third daughter, Stella Beador (Adeline’s twin), is enrolled at the University of Southern California but has spent her past few semesters studying abroad in France.
On February 25, the OC Housewife gave an inside look at her NYC getaway, posting photos of an intimate dinner at the Cathédrale Restaurant in the East Village. Shannon — who was joined by Sophie, Adeline and their friends — shared a couple of photos of their beautiful dishes, including the potato chip omelette and steak frites.
“Always an amazing time seeing my daughters and incredible friends in NYC!” Shannon captioned the carousel.
Shannon Beador shares a look at her life with Archie

Days before her trip, Shannon also provided an update on her four-legged family member, Archie. She gave fans a look at her and the dog’s “Saturday routine,” which included long scenic walks in Corona Del Mar.
“[Archie’s] part human...” Shannon wrote in her Stories. “Archie loves the park.”

Is Shannon Beador leaving the OC for the Big Apple?
Since becoming an empty-nester in 2023, Shannon has made frequent trips to Manhattan to see her girls. She spoke about her travels in a July 2024 interview with BravoTV.com, saying she could see herself living on the East Coast on a full-time basis.
“I do see myself, someday, moving back East,” she said. “It’s one thing that I always wanted to do when I was younger and I never did — I probably never would have left. I love the city. I love everything about back East. People think that I’m from the East Coast, but I’m not. Born and raised SoCal. West Coast.”
