"I live in love" 😂 Until I get My Man to sue you.   She'd be suing Bravo right now, if she didn't sign an ironclad contract.

All this bluster of showing receipts and proving things...does anyone ever make good on this threat? It's always a big nothing burger.  

If Alexis had been fun or funny,or interesting, most would've overlooked her Stand By My King bullshit, but she was aggressive, unpleasant and most jokes went right over her head.  Weird that Jenn and Katie still hung out with her when the cameras weren't there. What were those conversations like? Lol

So frustrating when housewives blame "editing" - they are so dumb that they don't realize that the editors CANNOT edit in things to make you look like a villian - however, they CAN edit out things that make you look really, really bad.  If you didn't act a certain way while being filmed, there would be nothing to edit, good or bad.

Alexis came back for one reason only - to vindicate scumbag Johnny J.  And, she failed.  So, now, SHE'S the wronged party and she plans to vindicate herself and Johnny J through social media and the press?  Good luck with that - didn't Johnny J have to sign a non-disparagement agreement?  I would hope that Shannon's attorney also included some clause about spouses/girlfriends, etc. are to be included.

Alexis claims to "live in love" - well, if she truly does, she should just let this all go and move on - amicably - as she said she had hoped to achieve with Shannon.

Move on with your life, Alexis - get married, live happily ever after and just go away!!!

What the actual fuck is Alexis’s problem?! Seriously, there is some kind of mental defect there. She wants to vindicate her man, yet she is the sole reason that he is still being talked about in any negative terms. Shannon bent over backwards during her relationship with him to make him look good. All this would have faded away to nothing if Alexis hadn’t stuck her ALF face into it because who the hell cares (besides Shannon and Alexis) about John Jansen?! He is not on anyone’s radar. 
I now 100% believe seeing her vindictive behavior, Alexis was actively involved in all the lawsuits.

And it would not have been a story line this entire season if Shannon had paid the money back to JJ. in the first place. there would have been nothing for either side to carry on about.

I routinely tape Entertainment Tonight, and then ff though to see if there are any interesting interviews. Imagine my shock when who should be on my screen but Johnny J, in an "exclusive" interview with ET. OMFG!!!

I guess lapdog Alexis didn't do a good enough job, so Janssen (solo) is whining yet again about Shannon. He said that he did hear the crash (complete with showing the video of it yet again), and he was going to go to Shannon but his 2 daughters who were there stopped him (the ones I assume that he claims Shannon almost ran over) and they went.  He also mentions Shannon slapping him (I think that was the word he used). 

What I find hysterically funny is that the RH  franchise is watched by a limited audience.  I am the only person I know who watches it, none of my friends or family do. It isn't like it is a major hit show with mega stars. It is a reality show with limited reach. Yet Johnny J chooses to take his whining to a show with a large viewing audience, many of whom I am sure have no clue who he is .

He whined once again about how his reputation has been damaged. No wonder he and Alexis are together, they are both delusional, vindictive, and full of self importance. Not that that is a surprise.  I might add that Johnny J looked like hell. They showed a pic of him from when he was dating Shannon, he has aged at least 10 years. He has gained weight, and was unshaven with an unkempt beard of white/grey bristles. He looked like he hadn't had a shower in a week.  

Clearly he and Alexis are happy to wallow in their self pity. For someone who claims to be so religious, Alexis does not appear to act very Christian like. Maybe someone should send her a WWJD bracelet.

I still had the ET episode so just watched again, and JJ went into some detail claiming that Shannon "attacked" him for a minute or so. Then again attacked him when he tried to stop her from leaving. At this point he mentions his daughters, and says Shannon almost ran over them when she reversed.

So I have several questions. Of course we only have JJ's word for all of this, but how hard would it be for 3 people to take a purse away (assuming that is where Shannon's keys were) from a drunk person? And why in the world would his daughters stand behind a car being driven by a drunk person? Of course those videos were never shown. Why didn't John call the police if he was being attacked? Interesting that we are hearing this version now. Why was this never brought up on the show? Was JJ waiting until the lawsuit settled to continue to drag it all out, now some 14 months later? And why does he only appear on camera when there is no one to question him? 

It is obvious that he thinks this will restore his reputation. For me, it just makes him look more pathetic. And I didn't think that was possible.

We believe who? We don't even have a name. Does the person even exist? The "person" supposedly sent a message to a gossip site. The site shouldn't even publish it. Even if there was a message we don't know who is hehind it. The message and the site's post have zero credibility.

A note: Johnny J filed the lawsuit this March. It's not 14 months.

The 14 months comment was in reference to the accident, which happened in September of 2023.

You don’t have to publish a name if the person was properly vetted and confirmed by 2 independent sources.. I mean I don’t know if these gossip sites go that far but what the source says tracks with how Emily felt about Heather and was HERSELF expressing on the show!  But we are to believe that the boys were shielded from anything negative?

I can guarantee that this site and similar ones don't even check that source, let alone two independent ones. They post lies quite often. They don't do journalism, let alone serious journalism.

A lot was mentioned on the show. Did you watch all episodes? It seems some individuals didn't. That Shannon almost ran John's daughter over (it was mentioned several times), that she was out of control, and he decided not to go to the crash site after his daughter's advice, that John went to the hospital but couldn't see her immediately because she was under arrest, that he took her to her home from jail, and took care of her for 10 days (this was mentioned at the reunion, but we followed this in real time and we knew). He didn't press charges because he obviously didn't want to add to her problems. 

At the third part of the reunion, Tamra and Heather said they went to dinner with John and other people the night before the reunion filmed, and John told them that Shannon slapped him the night of the accident. They met with Gina, Emily, and Shannon (Bravo showed the scene), and told Shannon. It was a preemptive move because Alexis would discuss it, and most probably show video as she promised. Shannon accepted it without protesting. It's quite possible John showed video the previous night, that's why Shannon didn't make any comments, she only looked embarrassed.

I have no idea if this was posted (I didn't check the forum since the 3rd part of the reunion aired). 

Season 18 was the most watched season in 5 years. It earned an average of 3.1 million viewers across 20 episodes. It was one of the top Bravo series, and it was renewed.
