Vicki Gunvalson’s ex-fiance Steve Lodge says she and her friends are still “harassing” him even though he’s moved on with his wife Janis Carlson.
Speaking to The Sun, Steve said he has blocked Vicki but that he still received a late-night “drunk dial” from Shannon Beador’s phone in May. Steve said Vicki, Shannon, and Tamra Judge were all heard on the drunken message.
“I want to be left alone. Leave my wife and I alone,” Steve demanded during an interview with The U.S. Sun. “I would hope she would please get on with her life and stop talking about or trying to contact me and my wife.”
“Hi, Steve. It’s Shannon Beador. How are you? I’m with Tamra right now and she just fell off her chair,” Shannon is heard saying. “I’m sorry. That was rude. We were just wondering how you are. We wrote you a really nice poem too. Maybe Tamra and I will restate the poem and we can send you the video. Vicki, do you think that’s a good idea?”
“I have it recorded,” Vicki replied.
Vicki then rips into Steve.
“I have a bone to pick with him. Why were you sleeping next to me while you were sleeping with Janis? And you told her that we were just friends. We weren’t friends! You were sleeping next to me, living in my house for free and my condo, and doing everything with me. I went to Sacramento with you to help you with (inaudible)… In any event, he was doing it with her while he was sleeping next to me. That means he used me!” she added.
Shannon then takes the phone back.
“That wasn’t nice. She didn’t mean it. She really didn’t mean that. You know what? I guess we were remembering the time right when I met [John Janssen, her ex-boyfriend]. It was like early 2019 where you and I, the three of us, had a dinner plan in Newport Beach and we walked into the restaurant and we’re like, ‘Oh my God, there’s Steve sitting at the bar.’ And you were like, ‘What are you doing here?’ Do you remember that dinner? I’m sorry, Steve. That wasn’t a good day. Okay, I wish you well with the new wife.”
Steve says he just wants to be left alone.
