Alexis Bellino encourages fans not to believe everything they see on season 18 of RHOC, claiming that producers are “intentionally painting her in a bad light.”
Over the weekend, Alexis Bellino took to Instagram to call out RHOC producers for making her look bad throughout season 18.
According to Alexis, fans are NOT seeing the “True Alexis,” but never fear because the 47-year-old will “bring the truth out” on her Instagram and/or within her reality TV career.
“I just want to let everyone know that what you’re seeing in my career in not real. It’s not the truth. There has been so much left out intentionally to paint me in a bad light. It’s ok. I’ll take one for the team to get ratings for the business, but I will live in truth. And I will bring the truth,” Alexis wrote on Instagram.
She continued, “Whether I have to do it here on my Instagram page or if this career I chose decides to bring the truth out. Either way, it WILL come out. And you will also see the true Alexis because what you’re seeing on your TV right now is NOT me.”
“I love you all, and I do not hate you for hating me because I would hate me too if I were you. But just hang tight, I’ll be speaking the truth after every episode of what has been left intentionally to paint me as someone I don’t even know. It will actually intrigue you all,” she added.
Since returning to RHOC for season 18, Alexis Bellino has been steeped in controversy thanks mostly to her relationship with Shannon Beador‘s ex-boyfriend, John Janssen. Alexis came in hot for Shannon from the start of season 18 and has not let up on her new man’s ex-girlfriend. Not only has Alexis called out the RHOC cast for giving Shannon too much sympathy following her September 2023 DUI, but she also threatened to release video footage John has from the night of her DUI. The video footage allegedly shows Shannon almost running over John’s daughter as she attempted to leave his Orange County home.
Just like fans, the RHOC cast is divided over Alexis’s behavior throughout season 18. Some, like co-star Emily Simpson, have dubbed Alexis “obnoxious” and “unreasonable,” while others, like Tamra Judge, feel that the hate being spewed towards Alexis by fans is “hurtful” and “disgusting” because she is “such a kind person and has a big heart.”
Alexis joined The Real Housewives of Orange County in 2009 during season 5. She went on to star on the hit Bravo show for four seasons before exiting ahead of season 9. After a nine-season hiatus, Alexis signed on to appear as a friend of the Housewives for season 18.
The Real Housewives of Orange County airs on Bravo Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET.
