It's safe to say Shannon Beador and Tamra Judge are definitely not amigas anymore.
In fact, the former BFFs had a major falling out while filming The Real Housewives of Orange County's upcoming 18th season after Tamra questioned her costar's drinking habits following Shannon's September 2023 DUI arrest.
"She has no right," Shannon exclusively told E! News. "She has had no part of anything that I have done since my DUI. None. In fact, she left town the day after my DUI. I hear that she's saying, 'I was there for her and I did this.' No you weren't."
Plus, Shannon wasn't expecting her longtime bestie to be so judgmental following her run-in with the law.
"Who made you the judge and jury of what I should and shouldn't be doing in my life?" Shannon added. "Focus on yours, because I'm focusing on mine."
And Shannon, who crashed her car into a Newport Beach, Calif. home last year after a fight with her ex-boyfriend John Janssen, has certainly been taking steps to improve her well-being since the accident.
"After it happened, I was so grateful that no one was hurt because that that would have been just unbearable," the 60-year-old admitted. "I was using alcohol as a coping mechanism. I have in my past in different periods in my lifetime, like when my marriage was ending."
In addition to attending a wellness and alcohol program, the mother of three shared she continues to "work with a trauma therapist and a psychiatrist regularly multiple times a week."
"I feel good about where I am right now," Shannon noted. "I know I continually will have to work on becoming a healthier and better person, but I'm very proud of where I've come at this point."
However, Shannon isn't looking forward to reliving last year's troubles when the new season premieres.
"It was a difficult season for me to film," she admitted. "The DUI was so humiliating for me and then you couple having Alexis Bellino joined the show, it was a lot. But I'm still standing here, so I feel a lot stronger and I'm continually working on myself."
