Shannon Storms Beador admits she’s “missing [her] girls.”
As she readjusts to empty-nester life, The Real Housewives of Orange County mom returned to Instagram to share a heartwarming throwback photo of her and her daughters Sophie, Stella, and Adeline Beador. Shannon posted the snap just weeks after the young women wrapped up their summers in Orange County and embarked on their respective new chapters.
“Missing my girls…” Shannon wrote in the September 13 caption, which concluded with three heart emojis.
Shannon's oldest daughter, Sophie, heads to the Big Apple
Sophie made it clear that the feeling was mutual: “Missing you so much,” she commented.
Shannon said goodbye to Sophie back in August, when she helped the Baylor University grad settle into New York City. The OC mom spoke about the move in a recent interview with BravoTV.com, saying her oldest daughter was going to the Big Apple after landing a job.
“Sophie just graduated from Baylor University, and we checked eight suitcases on the way here to New York, and she’s moving to New York City,” Shannon said at the time. “She got a job… So, super proud of her.”
Is Shannon planning to leave Orange County?
But Sophie isn’t the only Beador girl who’s living in NYC. Shannon’s other daughter Adeline just started her sophomore year at Parson’s School of Design, where she’s pursuing a bachelor’s administration degree in strategic design and management.
Now that two of her girls are living in NYC, Shannon said she intends to visit the East Coast much more frequently and is now considering a move there.
“I do see myself, someday, moving back East,” Shannon revealed. “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.”
Shannon's daughter Stella to spend another year in Paris
Adeline’s twin sister, Stella, also left the OC earlier this summer. However, she didn’t just leave California; she left the United States. Although she’s enrolled at the University of Southern California, Stella spent her freshman year studying abroad in Paris. The OC daughter apparently liked it so much that she decided to do it again.
“Stella was in Paris last year for the USC Trojan transfer, and she loved it so much she’s going to stay one more year,” Shannon said before sending Adeline off to France.
