The Real Housewives of Orange County star Shannon Beador has something to say about Southern Charm’s Rodrigo Reyes claiming that she was rude when they crossed paths at BravoCon.
“Can I say, and I apologize,” Shannon, 62, began on the Thursday, July 30, episode of Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, “Rodrigo, I don’t know who he is.”
Rodrigo, 42, made waves in January when he claimed on WWHL that Shannon had been “very rude” during BravoCon in November 2025.
“She was very rude and very condescending,” he alleged. “She was talking a lot of crap off to the side that Tyler [Dugas, my fiancé] heard. Tyler heard her talking about, like, Salley [Carson] and I having a better position in one of the fan rooms. Well, honey, show up on time and you won’t have to worry about that.”
Shannon, meanwhile, asserted on Thursday that she did not intentionally mean to hurt Rodrigo’s feelings.
“Sophie [my daughter] was with me at all times at BravoCon, and I go, ‘Sweetie, who is this?’ She goes, ‘Mom, we never saw him,’” the Housewives star said, to which Sophie, 23, nodded from behind the bar to seemingly corroborate her mom’s account. “So, I don’t know. Andy knows me: I’m nice to everyone, but I’m sorry, Rodrigo.”
Shannon even extended an invitation to make things up to Rodrigo during Bravo’s upcoming fan convention in Charleston, South Carolina, this October.
“We’re doing Fan Fest together,” Shannon stated. “Let’s make up!”
Bravo is hosting a one-day-only fan event on Sunday, October 24, for fans to attend cast panels, immersive experiences, pop-up activations and meet-and-greets with Bravolebrities. Andy Cohen will also tape two special broadcasts of WWHL in the days ahead of Bravo Fan Fest.
Personalities from Below Deck, Southern Charm, Southern Hospitality, Summer House and the Housewives franchise are expected to be present, including Shannon and her RHOC castmates. The OC iteration is currently airing its milestone 20th season.
“I had such a great time. I laughed, I did silly, silly things,” Shannon exclusively told Us Weekly last month. “I can’t wait for people to see that. … I really think people are going to enjoy the season, because it’s not always about fighting all the time. Of course, we have our disagreements, but people want to see fun too.”
Shannon further told Us that she was excited about her pal Vicki Gunvalson’s return to the show.
“I was excited about being back and being with my girlfriends and showing everybody what I’ve been up to,” Vicki, 64, told Us in a separate interview in June. “I’m still really good friends with Shannon on and off camera, Tamra [Judge] as well. It was easy.”
