Real Housewives of Orange County star Shannon Beador is preparing for a big custody battle with her husband of 17 years, David Beador, and the 53-year-old wants full custody of her three daughters, Sophie 16, and twins Stella and Adeline, 13. Is there any chance that the girls don’t want to live with their mother?
According to OK! Magazine , all three girls are thrilled to be with their mom , and they completely stand behind her. An insider says that they saw what their mother went through during her marriage, and they are happy she finally got the courage to end it because she was always miserable.
Beador told People Magazine that she felt alone in her marriage, but she did what she could to keep her family together. She said that it takes two people to make a marriage work, but if both people aren’t willing then it can’t be successful, and it just wasn’t happening in her relationship.
She went on to say that it breaks her heart she and her daughters had to go down this road, but it was the only way.
RHOC documented the rocky marriage, from David’s cheating to Shannon Beador’s 40-pound weight gain and the drama that came from that.
A source at Radar Online says that there is no doubt in anyone’s mind that Shannon will get full custody of her three teenagers, and for her, it is not a negotiable term of the divorce. However, she is willing to grant David visitation.
In addition to custody, Shannon is likely to get a substantial amount of child and spousal support.
Life as a single mom has already had its challenges. This past week Stella spent the night in an urgent care facility after injuring herself playing basketball. The Daily Dish reported that Shannon posted on Instagram that her daughter hurt her wrist after making the winning three-point shot.
Shannon also posted that she went into the x-ray room and that didn’t make her daughter happy, but she had to make sure they used low radiation. Luckily, there were only bruises, and the 13-year-old didn’t break any bones.
