Unraveling the Rollercoaster Romance: A Complete Timeline of RHOC’s Alexis Bellino and John Janssen
Love them or loathe them, Alexis Bellino and John Janssen are ready to embrace their future together—with wedding bells on the horizon! This dynamic couple confirmed their relationship approximately one year after Janssen concluded a four-year romance with Shannon Beador, a prominent star of The Real Housewives of Orange County. While Bellino was a mainstay during seasons 5 through 8, Beador made her entrance in season 9, setting the stage for an intriguing love timeline.
A New Chapter Begins
Prior to embarking on this new romantic journey, Alexis was married to her ex-husband Jim Bellino. Following her stint on the show, she returned as a guest during season 14, making her debut in a friendship role during season 18, when she began dating Janssen.
In an exclusive interview with Us Weekly, Beador expressed her feelings regarding Alexis’ new relationship, stating she doesn’t wish to pursue a friendship with her. Reflecting on her last conversation with Janssen, she noted, “He said, ‘I am breaking ties with you because you’ve ruined my life and my family’s by being so public,’" a sentiment that clearly sparked intrigue.
Fast Track to Forever
Despite the drama, Jennifer Pedranti from RHOC revealed that Alexis and John were “on the fast track to forever,” highlighting their chemistry as a fabulous pairing. Just a month later, Janssen proposed to Bellino, taking their relationship to the next level.
