‘RHOC’ Star Shannon Beador Explains Confrontation With Husband David’s Mistress At USC Game


Shannon Beador is trying her best to clear things up concerning the latest confrontation with her husband’s mistress, Nicole McMackin. To that end, the Real Housewives of Orange County star sat down in an interview with People and explained exactly what went down between her and McMackin at a recent college football game.

“All my husband and I want to do is move forward,” Beador stated in the interview.

Beador and her husband have worked hard in keeping their marriage together after it was discovered that David was engaged in a long-time affair with McMackin. Although the two spent most of the past season dealing with their issues in front of the camera, their main goal is to move on with their lives and leave the past behind them.

However, moving forward hasn’t been easy. In fact, the pair recently went to a USC football game, where they came face to face with their past. McMackin, along with her husband, Reed, were also present at the game, stationed only a few rows in front of Beador and David.

“We’re boosters,” Beador said. “We’ve had these tickets for 10 years in the same place. They were aware of that. We just don’t understand why they’d choose tickets in a huge stadium that are right in front of us.”

Reports quickly surfaced that the two had exchanged some heated words during the game, leading to an altercation between the women. In order to put those rumors to rest, Beador explained exactly what went down during the game.

“I was coming down the stairs after using the restroom and she was coming through the tunnel and we literally were inches apart,” Beador explained. “I very calmly said, ‘You have a lot of nerve being here Nicole.’ I thought, I always say nothing and I have to tell her I’ve had it and she needs to stop flaunting herself in front of me.”

Although their exchange did not get physical in nature, it did manage to draw plenty of attention, especially after the two got in a screaming match.

“She responded and screamed in my face, ‘F*** you!’ and pointed her finger at me. And then I got angry. I’m human. I got angry and screamed to the stands, ‘This is who my husband had an affair with!’ “

While it’s understandable that Beador would react this way, the question remains as to why McMackin felt the need to go to the game at all. According to Radar Online, McMackin’s motivations involve gaining the attention of Shannon Beador’s husband.

“Nicole only started going to watch the games after her affair started with David …” the source stated. “On Saturday, it seemed like Nicole was going out of her way to be seen by Shannon and David. She was laughing really loud and pointing at them and making a complete scene. The worst part is that she was there with her husband.”

Clearly, Beador did not sit by quietly while McMackin flaunted herself in front of her husband. Despite standing up for herself and her marriage, the insider revealed that Beador is at a loss at how to handle her situation.

“She honestly does not know what to do. She knows that David has no contact with her anymore,” the source revealed. “But neither her nor David understand why she keeps popping up all over the place.”

Meanwhile, following the incident at the stadium, Beador posted an image of her and her family at the game on Instagram. “Go Trojans! Cheering with good friends! Sorry @tamrajudge couldn’t make it!” she wrote alongside the image. “Someone with no moral compass decided to show up again. Watch reunion part 2 on Monday night and you will understand who I’m talking about. #narcissist #stalker.”
