RedHawk September 17, 2015 Share September 17, 2015 Here's the mistress, according to the Daily Mail: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3237312/This-Nicole-McMackin-woman-cheated-husband-RHOC-s-Shannon-Beador-sordid-eight-month-affair-befriended-reality-star-probe-info-break-couple.html Holy cow! There was a link to a photo of Nicole posted here several weeks ago and I saw some resemblance, but geez, the first photo in this article -- I totally thought it was Shannon. Weirdness. Well, she's been exposed now, and maybe Shannon will get a little feeling of revenge because Nicole's name will be smeared all over the tabloids as a cheatin' ho and the OC society world will know all. Guess there will be a lot of gossip and whispers going around for a while since this is so high profile. Interesting timing, as some have pointed out, right before the reunion show. 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4989-shannon-beador-magic-crystals-and-nine-lemons/page/10/#findComment-1514819
cherry slushie September 17, 2015 Share September 17, 2015 (edited) It turns out that Nicole purposely put her kid on Shannon’s daughter’s basketball team, a team that David coaches.'The whole thing is upsetting for a lot of different reasons. ‘They began talking during games and Nicole would ask her how her relationship was going. So Nicole deliberately did that so she could befriend Shannon and get info on their marriage. She's a manipulative, conniving, awful woman. To quote Shannon, she is "sick and demented.". However, her husband is hot. Since Nicole helped herself to David, it's only fair that Shannon return the favor and take a piece for herself. ;) Edited September 17, 2015 by cherry slushie 10 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4989-shannon-beador-magic-crystals-and-nine-lemons/page/10/#findComment-1514829

Plus Jimmy is friends with Terry (supposedly, even though he hadn't seen Terry's youngest since she was an infant). True but Heather and Shannon were not "friends" at that point (I don't know if they are even friends now).

talula September 17, 2015 Share September 17, 2015 (edited) They are both at fault. I think the Evil comment is aimed at the other woman for befriending Shannon. That's a whole different level of ballsy...or crazy. I doubt David plays tennis or golf with the other husband, or chats him up on purpose to check up on their marriage. It's so sad. My husband is my best friend. You know, that person that knows you inside and out, shares your everything. The betrayal of an affair, to me, is no different than a complete rejection of everything you have, who you are, what you offer and your trust in this world. Just like you trust your mother and father to do only what's in your best interest, blindly, just like our trust in God for those believers. I hope they can work it out but I don't know how you can ever put that behind you. The woman named in this article is the one we were speculating on earlier and Tamra did reveal her first name on WWHL. I believe David and his affair were looking for something other then long term love...the danger of cheating and a lustful fling. They became addicted/intoxicated with each other till their house of cards collapsed. Once their relationship was discovered it no longer had the excitement resulting in an end to their fling. Reality sunk in...their the bad guys for causing their families deep irrevocable pain. With this being reality TV show fodder, I just don't see how it benefits anyone. The audience doesn't need to see how a partner of the affair or the children try to salvage their marriage. Just do it and see if it's salvageable in private! I also see nothing beneficial for the other family being torn apart by Mrs. Affair's name being published...and dragged through the mud publicly. Shannon's need to appear on RHOC was hurtful for her and her girls and has also negatively effected the innocent husband and children of another family. What is Shannon gonna do, wallow in self pity and revenge or either salvage her marriage or take half of David's mucho millions and walk away. My take is the audience didn't need to see the Beador's sad sack marriage played out before us and watch those girls of theirs try to compensate for their parents dirty laundry. IMO, the healing should have taken place off camera.

I'm not sure it was a good idea, at all. However, when you write: "Shannon's need to appear...also negatively effected the innocent husband and children of another family." No, David and The Affair negatively effected the innocent husband and their children. Even if Shannon didn't return to the show, this was not Shannon's responsibility. She shouldn't have to weigh that consideration for another family as far as going back to the show, as it is her job and her right to return. Her only consideration should be for her daughters. As far as I'm concerned, these shows are not good for anyone in the majority of their cases. The jury is out on if she should have come back and according to her, she says it was a decision made by both her and David. I'm not saying she made the correct decision, but The Affairs family should not be a burden placed on Shannon's decisions on anything in her life. 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4989-shannon-beador-magic-crystals-and-nine-lemons/page/10/#findComment-1515546

I have to say that since David, the dipstick decided to have an affair, while filming a reality show, and the responsibility rest solely on his shoulders and Nicole's. They are both intelligent people who knew if caught what being in the spotlight would entail. It was just delayed that was all and I am quite certain the people around the are aware and are there for them and the blowback. Mrs. Affair, much like the Giudices, should have thought about her actions and how they would effect her husband and family before she dropped her panties for the husband of a RH. The person in the best place to protect the children is their mother. Shannon has no duty to the Mrs. Affair's husband or children as Mrs. Affair is the one who put the hurt in motion. Being made public is the least of the hurt it is the act of betrayal by Mrs. Affair, she put her child on a basketball team she did all of these things knowing she was married, David was married, and most of all knowing her lover was filming a reality show. In all reality since Shannon did not release the name of Mrs. Affair she did far more to protect the privacy of Mrs. Affair, her children and husband. We don't exactly have a Brandi Glanville situation here. I may not agree with the way Shannon and production handled the filming of the so far repair of the Beador marriage but I don' t think Shannon should have to give up her job. It seems to me she had spent the previous thirteen years staying home and she found a job that paid well and it seems for the most part the kids enjoy. If Vicki had to film with Brooks then Shannon had to acknowledge her marital strife on air. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4989-shannon-beador-magic-crystals-and-nine-lemons/page/10/#findComment-1515623

This will likely bring all of her hostilities back to the surface (even more) as she has to re-live it. More than that, if the story isn't true, Shannon will have to deal with being ousted from her own social circle as they are all in the same circle. If it is true, she may still be ousted depending upon how the circle works. I think that is why she never went on record about who the woman was. She knew that she was in a precarious situation either way. Depending upon which one of them has more influence, Shannon's entire life could be fucked up over this. Especially, if The Daily Mail's less than stellar track record comes into play. Their entire group will now be choosing sides and while it could mean that only this woman's family is decimated, it could also mean that Shannon and her family will be the ones who lose. She may get sympathy from the audience, but social cliques are always precarious. Shannon may be ousted for going on such a trashy show and showing such an unseemly mess to the viewing public. Especially if that mess involves someone in a better social position than she is. ETA: This is why I always hoped that the woman's name would never be released to the broader public. Shannon is the one who is put in the horrible position by this. Yes, that woman's family doesn't deserve to suffer such public humiliation as they didn't sign up for the show or have an affair, but that doesn't spare them at all. And if she isn't the one? Wow! It will be two families destroyed and humiliated over a rumor.

Well if this couple is as well heeled as they appear, I wouldn't be surprised to see contracts suddenly falling through, zoning issues with current developments, and all kinds of mishaps that just happen in the construction business. That's if this is the right couple and they have more pull in the OC. I just firmly believe that there is a reason that Shannon never named the person David had an affair with. She knew that her own standing was at stake. And, honestly, I don't think that Jimmy holds any real status in Orange County, mainly because he barely lives there. When I put this in context, I think of the fact that RHOC is not very relevant to the people that have the money and standing that these women ape. The moneyed elite aren't going to be watching this show the way we do. They aren't going to follow online tabloid sites about the cast, unless it involves them. And if it does involve them, they aren't going to refute it to some rag, they refute it through their social standing and connections, and if necessary, but ONLY if necessary, their lawyers.

MatildaMoody September 18, 2015 Share September 18, 2015 (edited) I would guess that most of the OC "in crowd" already knew who she was, just from gossip. They used Newport hotels, OC restaurants...word gets around. Not that big of an area for a certain crowd, Imo. Exactly. And they never said anything to Shannon. That tells me that they had a reason to keep it to themselves. We have to assume that Shannon has at least one or two true friends that knew what was going on and they never said anything to her? Granted, no one wants to be the bearer of bad news like that, but if they were all talking about it and NO ONE gave Shannon a head's up? They obviously thought it was something to keep quiet, and I think that is why Shannon was also very careful to keep it quiet. I just think that Shannon is going to be very upset about the woman's name being publicized, not just because she has to re-live the humiliation. She has to re-live the humiliation within her own social group and risk being ousted from said social group. I'm sure she thought many times about demonizing the woman - she has the perfect platform to do it. But, I also think that she considered how she would be affected if it were to come to light and thought the better of it. All I am really saying is I feel bad for Shannon that "the mistress" has a public face now because none of this is going to make her life any easier. Especially, if the Daily Mail got it wrong and just ran with a blog comment and a bunch of unnamed "sources."

cherry slushie September 18, 2015 Share September 18, 2015 (edited) If you are right, Shannon better hope and pray that this woman isn't in a stronger position than she is. Because the woman and her husband could actually have the power to do what the Dubrows couldn't do last season, take the Beadors down. Only, it wouldn't be them taken down on a trashy reality show. They would be taken down in real life. Geez, those poor kids. So this woman is an even bigger piece of shit than we already thought she was? She did the dirty deed, yet she's going to take the suffering wife down because her name got out? She was boinking him all over Orange County - people see, people talk. She had to know her name would eventually get out, and I'm actually surprised it took this long. She did this to herself and her family, end of story.

talula September 18, 2015 Share September 18, 2015 (edited) I wouldn't think Shannon did the outing of Mrs. Affair. Maybe (???) by now Meghan found out Mrs. Affair's name from Tamra (who mentioned the first name on TV). In the name of JUSTICE and 100% revenge on behalf of her friend Shannon, Meghan decided to give the name out by planting it in an Internet comment, lol. From there a reporter did a little digging...and there you have it another culprit brought to justice by the one woman wrecking ball!

Stress that she brought upon herself by signing this year's BRAVO contract to expose her marriage woes to an international reality TV show audience! Did Shannon really believe it helped save her marriage by airing her suffering family before the public? This experience has taken a toll on her and to be honest it was painful to watch passive aggressive David in action. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4989-shannon-beador-magic-crystals-and-nine-lemons/page/10/#findComment-1516140

We don't know how many people knew of the affair, or just knew David had stepped out or actually saw David and the affair together. If the some of the women knew last July at the time of filming the Reunion, it would have been after Shannon found out about the affair. I think you raise a good point and my curiosity is-did the affair attend Heather's luncheon? Or was the woman who called David comfortable enough to call him instead of Shannon to report the gossip? heather did say her guests seemed to think there was trouble in the Beador marriage. I will be curious how forthcoming Heather is about her knowledge in the aftermath. If a statement is blatantly false that is the first thing you do. It is basic libel law-you first should demand the publication correct the misinformation. http://www.dmlp.org/legal-guide/retraction-law-california Because several other news sources have picked it up She is President of a tech recruiting company and now she is identified as an adulterer. If it weren't true she would want it cleaned up. By Beadors and the affair and her camp not commenting they are in essence confirming the report. I would feel terrible for a family if a husband or wife were incorrectly identified as being part of illicit affair. I see it as declining to comment she is essentially admitting complicity. If it were anyone and they were falsely identified as an adulterer, who befriended their lover's wife, I would think a stern denial would be issued. It is not as if it just goes away if you ignore it. Although tabloids are notorious for publishing false or partially false information there is no reason to believe they would pull this woman's name out of a hat and go after her. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4989-shannon-beador-magic-crystals-and-nine-lemons/page/10/#findComment-1516412
Bebecat September 18, 2015 Share September 18, 2015 Not sure why there is a question as to whether or not this is the woman David cheated with? Even though it is the DM, they would not run it without having some back-up. In fact, despite their histrionic way of handling stories, they often have details no one else has, especially in crime stories and they later prove to be correct. Yes they are tacky and borderline illiterate at times, but they still have to cover their butts. And no one seems to be denying it. I mean it was obviously some woman who David would have had reason to run into. Sounds like this woman made sure of it. I wonder if this will come up at the reunion show. Also...I want to see what Eddie has to say about Tamra lying to his face about the deposit money. Will he just blow it off? Does he really want/need to stay with Tamra that badly??
