On The Real Housewives of Orange County, Alexis Bellino claimed that she tried to stop her ex-husband, Jim Bellino, from suing Shannon Beador and Tamra Judge for defamation in 2018.
In a recent interview, Jim denied Alexis’ comments.
“I can’t speak much about the lawsuits, but Alexis said she advised me not to sue Shannon,” Jim said on The Rick & Kelly Show. “Alexis doesn’t know the first thing about the lawsuits, nor was she involved in the lawsuits. So Shannon and [Tamra Judge], by the way, if you’re watching this, don’t get mad at her. I sued you for defamation and slander, and Alexis said she advised me not to sue you, Shannon. That’s a lie. She never advised me not to sue you.”
Shannon eventually won the case, but she lost hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal fees.
Jim says he’d happily do it again, warning others to not defame him now or in the future.
Jim also added that he thinks his ex-wife will be asked back next season following her very dramatic return to the show.
Should Alexis be invited back?
