Shannon Storms Beador Breaks Down Discussing Her DUI: "I'm So Sorry"
In a conversation with her three daughters on the RHOC Season 18 premiere, Shannon Storms Beador expresses her regret about her DUI.
Shannon Storms Beador is opening up about her DUI like never before on the Season 18 premiere of The Real Housewives of Orange County.
The topic arises in the above sneak peek while Shannon is mid-conversation with her three daughters, 22-year-old Sophie Beador and 19-year-old twins, Stella and Adeline Beador.
Speaking specifically to Stella — who's preparing to head back to school — Shannon begins to tear up. "I took Sophie to college, I took Adeline to college, and your dad took you, so it was my intent to come and visit you," she explains. "But because of my mistakes, I wasn't able to come. And I feel bad."
"I'm so sorry and humiliated that I disappointed you," a teary-eyed Shannon continues. "What kind of example am I at 59?"
