This August, The Real Housewives of Orange County returns to Bravo. And in addition to welcoming a new lady to the mix, Shannon Beador is embracing her post-divorce life with open arms... and a new name. From now on, you can call her Beador, Shannon Storms Beador.

How to Watch

Watch The Real Housewives of Orange County on Peacock and the Bravo App.

That's right, following her split from David Beador and finalizing their divorce earlier this spring, the RHOC mom has decided to include her maiden name in her full name.

She previously spoke about the decision in an interview with The Daily Dish podcast.

"It's been requested from my ex that I'm not worthy of the name Beador," she shared back in July 2018, when she first teased the decision, which she has clearly not gone all in on. "For the sake of my kids, I think I'm going to stay Shannon Beador."

She added, "Now I call myself Shannon Storms Beador so it's kind of like the best of both worlds," joking that "Shannon Storms" is reminiscent of "stripper porn."

Well, if you ask us, we kind of love the new name!

Season 14 of RHOC premieres on Bravo on Tuesday, August 6 at 9/8c. Check out all the antics in the trailer above.
