Alexis Bellino clapped back at Heather Dubrow’s “weird” explanation for why she skipped her wedding to John Janssen. The Real Housewives of Orange County alum questioned if her friendship with Heather is just a “work friendship,” and she claimed that “none” of the current castmates are “really friends.”
Earlier this year, Alexis married John, the ex-boyfriend of castmate Shannon Beador. Though Heather is friends with both Alexis and Shannon, she chose not to attend the wedding. While Heather claimed she was at a parents’ weekend during the wedding, she also shared that the invite was complicated due to her friendship with Shannon. What’s more, Heather claimed that she and her husband, Dr. Terry Dubrow, aren’t friends with Alexis and John as a couple.
On Reality with The King, Alexis reacted to Heather’s explanation.
“I saw it, and I’m a little perplexed by it,” said Alexis. “I haven’t texted her or reached out yet. But it’s funny because I don’t understand it, because we’ve gone to dinner with them several times. And I guess maybe it’s a work friendship, but I didn’t think it [was]. I thought we had a deeper friendship than that. But it’s kind of an awkward answer she gave.”
“A couple Watch What Happens Live [episodes] ago, when she was trying to get me on the show, she said, ‘Well, I talk to Alexis more than I talk to Shannon.’ And now all of a sudden she’s filming with Shannon and I’m not filming, but we still just texted a couple of days ago — and a couple of days before that — and then she wished me well on my wedding day, or right after,” Alexis went on.
She continued, “I have to get to the bottom of that. But yeah, it’s awkward and weird. And she was very excited … when she found out we were engaged. I even asked her if she wanted to sing [at the wedding]. She was like, ‘Oh my gosh, that was too stressful at Tamra’s wedding, I don’t want to do it again.’”
Later in the episode, Alexis hinted at why certain castmates are acting differently.
“I think what they’re doing right now is they know that season 20 is a big season, and there’s been rumors that there’s going to be a huge recast,” she said.
Alexis added, “I think what the women are doing is figuring out exactly who they want to work with next year, and they’re trying to build that cast on their own by saying, ‘Okay, I’m gonna ice this person out because we don’t want her … and we’re all going to act like we’re friends.’ By the way, none of them are really friends.”
