RHOC star Alexis Bellino is officially engaged to John Janssen aka her “Johnny J.” From the time she returned to the hit Bravo series after leaving at the end of Season 8, Alexis knew they would get married. Now, it is official but how did they make the announcement and what does the ring look like? Keep reading for the details.
RHOC Alexis Bellino Engaged To John Janssen
When Alexis Bellino was first on RHOC from Seasons 5 through 8, she was married to Jim Bellino. They had three children together and he was very controlling. He wanted her to stay at home and honor her wifely duties but she wanted to get out and work. She had a dress line and a hosting job at FOX. Eventually, she exited after Season 8 and they divorced. She then moved on with Andy Bohn and they obnoxiously appeared on Below Deck. They got engaged but that ended as well and she was single.
In November 2023, Alexis reconciled with her former OC castmate, Tamra Judge. She then met John Janssen who was also the ex-boyfriend of Shannon Beador, a current RHOC star. They had been together for around three years but broke up right before her DUI hit-and-run arrest in September 2023. Since Alexis was friends with both Tamra and Heather Dubrow, she was brought on for Season 18. It did not hurt that she was dating John Janssen and she kept saying they would get married. He even gave her a “promised ring” for Christmas. Now, the two are happily engaged, via her Instagram.
Alexis Bellino disabled the comments so no one could say anything but she prominently displayed a huge rock on her finger. The two have been together for nine months. According to a post she shared by People, this was an anniversary surprise that occurred on Tuesday, August 27th. The duo was on vacation in Santa Barbara, California when he proposed. This will undoubtedly come up at the reunion which should be filming sometime soon.
How Does Shannon Feel?
Of course, RHOC fans could not help but mention Shannon Beador when it came to Alexis Bellino and John Janssen’s engagement. Shannon seemed to believe she and John would be together forever but that did not happen. So, what did followers have to say upon learning the news?
- Wedding to be funded by Shannon Beador 🙄🤦🏼♀️
- Johnny J is the new Slade Smiley!
- This is giving the trailer park version of Gretchen and Slade…. full circle, and then some😂
- That’s why he tried suing Shannon. He makes me sick.
- This s*** is a hot mess! 🤦🏽♂️
Currently, John is suing Shannon for $75K for a loan he gave her for a facelift which she maintains was a gift. Now, fans cannot help but wonder what her reaction will be to this.
