Although she’s a self-proclaimed “relationship girl,” Shannon Storms Beador insists she’s quite happy being single.
How to Watch
The mother of three recently opened up about her love life in an interview with Page Six’s Virtual Reali-Tea, where she discussed some surprising appearances on Season 19 of The Real Housewives of Orange County.
In Episode 3, which aired on July 24, Shannon reunited with Adam Rubin and Phillip Westbrooks, two men she had met on the dating reality show Bravo’s Love Hotel. She spent an evening bowling with Adam and attended Heather Dubrow’s birthday party with Phillip. These encounters quickly led to romance rumors, but Shannon clarified that her connections with both Adam and Phillip were purely friendship-based.
Does Shannon Storms Beador still speak to the men of Bravo’s Love Hotel?
“To be clear: They are just friends,” she explained to the podcast hosts. “I chose to part ways with Adam on Bravo’s Love Hotel, but we remain good friends. Both he and Phil reside in California, so I see them frequently.”

“I’m friends with all of them and that’s how it’s going to remain,” she said.
Shannon Storms Beador reflects on her split from Earl: “It hurt”
Shannon filmed Bravo’s Love Hotel more than a year after she and John Janssen called it quits. The dating series followed the California mom as she developed a promising romance with Georgia-based vocational expert Earl. Although their love story continued after the cameras went down, the pair decided to go their separate ways after several months of being long-distance.
“When I watched back the Love Hotel, it kind of affected me, emotionally, because I hadn’t dated anyone for a year and I made myself vulnerable,” she told Virtual Reali-Tea. “It didn’t work out, and it hurt.”

Shannon Storms Beador says she’s changing her approach to romance
Shannon said she has since adopted a new outlook on dating, saying it was no longer a major priority in her life.
“Part of 2025, for me, is not molding my life around a relationship, because I’m usually doing that. I’m just doing things I wanna do,” she explained. “Of course, I want to find a partner, but for now, I’m happy with where I am. So if I don’t find that partner, I know my life is going to be good.”
Shannon made similar comments in a recent interview with The Daily Dish, revealing how she would do things differently if and when she becomes romantically involved again.
“I see, in a perfect relationship, maintaining some independence for myself,” she said. “And that’s something that I’ve learned over the relationships that didn’t work. I still have to have a piece of me that’s still me… I’ve learned that I can be OK [single]. I can be happy, and I can have a full life. I can honestly say I’ve never been happier in my life.”
