Shannon Storms Beador Reveals Why the New Season of RHOC Is "Drama Filled"

Shannon Storms Beador is getting "silly" on The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 19. The mom of three recently spoke with The Daily Dish, where she teased what is to come from the new season.

"So the next season of RHOC is — it's drama-filled, with drama that [it's like], 'Where did that drama come from?'" Shannon explained in our recent exclusive interview. "It's just very surprising, and I think it's a very unique season."

"It's my 11th season on the show, and it's just very, very different," she continued. "But it's good! And for me, it can only get better than my last season, so I feel as though I'm silly a lot this season. Which, like, that's fun for me. I like to be silly."

Shannon Storms Beador says being on RHOC has made her "stronger"

She continued, noting that the past 11 seasons have shown her how strong she can be. "First season Shannon, I put it out there," she explained.

"I never, ever thought that the things that have happened in my life would have happened," she added. "I definitely think that being on the show has made me a stronger person, absolutely."
