Shannon Beador divorce details revealed: How much does the RHOC star spend a month?

The trees in Orange County must grow money because Shannon Beador has been spending a lot of it!

We all know Shannon Beador officially filed for divorce from David Beador. It was only a matter of time before it happened. The two have been separated for months and reconciling wasn’t a viable option for the RHOC star at this point.

Of course, Shannon wants primary custody of her three girls. This makes the most sense, especially given their ages and moms being important in raising teenage girls.

Minus all the usual mumbo-jumbo with divorces, this is kind of extraordinary. Now, we also know that Shannon Beador comes from money. She never “worked” a day in her life and this was confirmed when RHOC was listed as the only job in her work history (would you really call that work?).

At least she actually was a housewife in the truest sense. Bravo has long been criticized for casting women who aren’t even married to star in many of the Real Housewives shows.

According to Reality Tea, Shannon Beador claims she makes $22,000 a month from RHOC. I mean, that’s really decent considering some people in this country don’t even make that in an entire year, but I digress. While that isn’t jaw-dropping some of the other details are most definitely shocking.

When itemized, Shannon Beador spends over $55,000 a month. Holy. Cow. That is double what she brings in from her RHOC salary.

Clearly, Shannon is going to get some alimony, especially since David Beador is said to bring in $175,000 a month (feel free to pick your jaw up off the ground now). Shannon says her expenses are due to rental payments, charitable contributions, gifts, vacations, and laundry services.

It will be interesting to see how the Beador divorce is handled. Some RHOC fans believe that David will give Shannon what she wants in order to have her leave him alone. At this point, I wouldn’t doubt that. There is going to be more dirty laundry revealed before this is over and we can’t wait to find out what else has been lurking in the Beador closets.
